So, we're gonna toss back our first glass of champagne - hey, it's New Year's Eve, for Pete's sake! - and just kinda free associate. Names and events that mattered to us, in no particular order.
Okay, lie back, relax.... where's that damned drink?....
and let the 2006 sports memories flow........
You want to know what killed the White Sox this year? Weak pitching? A failure to take advantage of the Twins and Tigers' respective meltdowns during the last weeks of the season? No. It was over the day Jerry Reinsdorf made Joe Crede cut his hair. Jerry, ever hear of Samson and Delilah?
New Orleans storms over Atlanta 23-3 in the first game held in the Superdome in over a year. Take that, Katrina, you bitch.
The disappointment of this season makes it harder to remember that there was a time when Bill Cowher was perfectly happy. And we were happy for him.
Speaking of which...
Six consecutive PGA tour wins. Remarkable. And behind one of the finest competitors of all time was a wonderful dad. Rest in peace, Mister Woods.

George Mason's Cinderella appearance in the Final Four made the the Sweet Sixteen all the sweeter.

Two of the true greats.
Curt Gowdy.
WHO won??!!
He scored HOW many points?!!
Finally, a reason to find soccer interesting.
The NBA playoffs were the best in years. LeBron, D-Wade, Dirk, Kobe, reminded us of that tingly feeling we had in the days of MJ and Magic.
"Do we wuv our wittle boy? Yeswedo, Yeswedo..."
Suh-wheat.
We admit to much affection for Rod Brind'Amour; happy for him. But there should be a rule: if a city's ponds do not freeze over in winter, it should not be allowed to have an NHL team.
