Raps win! Raps win!

It's funny, but I think the team that I'm most interested these days is the Toronto Raptors. No one had anything good to say about them to start the year, and they lived up to that billing by not winning until their 10th game or so.

So, they are a big underdog, and I was interested in whether they could actually win a game. They did, and in fact, they have done rather well of late, winning something like 6 of their last 7 games, including a thrashing of the NY Knicks today.

So, the Raptors may have replaced the Montreal Expos - a moment of silence please - as my favorite team. NBA basketball isn't my favorite sport. Neither was baseball when the Expos were my favorite team. Still the Raps have an appeal to me that I'm don't find in any other team.

Well, aside from Newcastle United.

Yes, but do you rescue earthworms from the pavement when it rains?
