There was something heavenly about Sunday, so much so it almost made me a believer.
A day after owner Al Davis died, it seemed like his hands were all over the Oakland Raiders’ 25-20 win over the Houston Texans. They were clearly struggling in the first half not getting their first first-down until 1:46 left in the first half. If not for the leg of Sebastian Janikowski and his 54-yard and 55-yard field goals, it would have been a rout.
Sunday, Holy Sunday in Sports
LAst Night's Action: Massacre à Montréal
Montreal Canadiens defeat LA Kings 4-1. Quelle tragédie! Les Rois perdus à Montréal. Les Habitantes a mieux joué que les Rois. With all due respect to the Quebecois and other French-speaking hockey fans, that’s the extent of my knowledge of French. Je suis désolé.
LAst Night's Action: Lakers Lose Thrice
Orlando Magic defeat LA Lakers 96-94. The last time the Lakers lost three games in a row was January 23, 2008 to January 27, 2008 in road games at San Antonio and Dallas and a home game against Cleveland. Four days later the Lakers traded for Pau Gasol, and any lengthy losing streaks came to an end. Until this game.
Kings Still Can't Get Past Habs
In front of a sold out Staples Center crowd of 18,118, the Kings did not take advantage of scoring opportunities in their 4-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens.
Kings head coach Terry Murray wants more from his team as they make a push to their first playoff berth since the 2001-2002 season.
“We played fine but we were just playing the game,” Murray said. “And you can’t just play the game right now. You’ve got to play with an attitude.”
Go Kings Go... Straight To The Cellar
With one week to go in the regular season, your Los Angeles Kings find themselves in last place in the NHL. With three games left, the Kings are two points behind the Tampa Bay Lightning, who have also played one less game. Kings, your pathetic fate is in your own gloved hands. Go out there and give it your all. Make us proud…
