Greetings fellow Kings fans!

I hope you all had a marvelous holiday. I arrived home a little while ago and I have a weather bulletin...it's COLD here in the forest and will probably snow before much longer. I'm trying to get everything put away, get a fire started, catch up on the grade threads and a couple of others, AND watch the ND-USC game before the beginning of the Kings-Blazers.

To those of you who live in the Sacramento area, I respect you for your patience and perserverance. ;) I am so glad to be home where you can count the number of cars going by in an hour on one hand and there is peace ... and most of all quiet. I'd forgotten how truly noisy Sacramento is, and Davis isn't much better.

I thought of all of you at the game on Wednesday but especially last night. I don't think my mother's neighbors are very happy ... I tried to show restraint while I was watching last night's game but I don't think I succeeded. What a fantastic showing for Kevin Martin. The ONLY downside is it's gonna get harder and harder on him as more and more teams realize he's the real deal. I'm just very glad he's our real deal.

Now, I've got some more stuff to get done around here but I will be back for the play-by-play.

GO KINGS!!!!

Oh, and BTW?

I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!!!!!!

Brad is back in uniform. Ron is back. And Kevin Martin is ranked in the Top 20 in the NBA: He's 14th in points, 19th in FG%, 9th in 3pt%, and 12th in FT%.

Those are incredible stats. WTG, Kevin!!
