    Dan, as someone who has never seen any of the three Mighty Ducks films, I literally laughed out loud a dozen times with the comparisons. Rumor has it Boitano is training hard to become a gritty fourth liner for the Penguins. Great job my friend. I almost want to watch the trilogy now.....almost.

    What did you think of Murray? I watched the first two sets that Murray won and felt like he was in a pretty unshakable rhythm, only to watch Djoko climb back into the hunt. What an amazing match!

    what to expect from a professional who is paid to perform. Enough about us being a top reason he will or won't perform and more about his skills. Maybe you mention that in slide three but i stopped reading from utter disgust.

    Thanks for becoming a fan, Dan! I've read a great deal of your work over the years and have really enjoyed it. I actually came into B/R around the same time you did, but primarily wrote Golf and some NBA and MLB on the site. You've been a terrific member of the B/R community and if there's anything I can ever help you out with please don't hesitate to reach out.

    Thanks again!
