Allergy season is here and its been here and man do I want allergy season to end. The nose, the eyes, the ears, the tears, the snot, the tissues, the extra coffee……. I could go on and on……. With the spring rituals of allergies and food and sport it is defiantly spring all over the place. To celebrate spring THG is going to throw a curve on the regular style of post and shoot for the upper 90 and crank in a goal! Did you get enough of the sports metaphors? Well if you did that’s cool and if not here are some rankings and schedules:
Note: the Caps series is the only series worth discussing right now.
