I wonder if the question I asked a few days ago kept other people from putting down the Hawks, or if no one was going to, anyway.

It kept me from writing in the Syracuse Nationals, who became the Philadelphia 76ers. I would have sheeped either way.

Grrr I had Munich in the box but changed it last minute figuring people would look at 1972, come up with Munich and not do any further thinking.
Glad my strategy of picking all of my local teams continues to work! The Bruins' Cup win in '11 will forever be a favorite memory. Around the same time as the playoffs, my dad got us tickets to a Sox game for my birthday. As it turned out, the B's championship parade was scheduled for the same day. We went into the city early for the parade, I collected a bag of confetti and then went to Fenway later that day. Good times...
