Battle of the Sexes- The ladies won today and are now down by 9, 43-34.












Orlando Magic-





YOUR Orlando Magic are 1-0 so far in the first round of the playoffs! They destroyed the Raptors Sunday afternoon at the Amway Arena. The crazy thing, I saw a bunch of empty seats at the game! There were $6 seats available the day of the game, so it's not like anyone can say it's too expensive to go to the game. Come on Orlando, get behind your team! Let's fill that arena up tomorrow night for game 2 at 7:30!














$25 Pyramid- Scott played today and they got 3 out of 5. $10 rolls over to tomorrow's game making the jackpot worth $70!














Journey of a 1000 Thanks!
