Alex Smith and Vitamin Water

It was a lovely Saturday morning and the rains are finally gone as we move closer to May. The day hit highs of 82 degrees and the sun is shining!

Alex Smith

What made today better was that it was draft day for the NFL and Frank and Jenie had tickets to an intimate Vitamin Water gathering! It was so awesome to meet Alex Smith, a youthful, quiet and humble young man that if you didn’t know better you would say he’s just a regular college student. Just under 6’5” we sat around and chatted with him like he was one of the boys. Frank and I were like little kids with our 49er footballs getting autographs what a sweet deal! I am hoping that Alex has a blow out season this year!

NFL Draft

The Niners continue beefing up their defense with Linebacker Patrick Willis from Mississippi in the first round. I say this is well needed as the linebacker position has lacked a terror every since Ronnie Lott and the loss of Adrian Peterson. We need someone to lay folks out, stop the run and put pressure on quarterbacks!

The Denver Bronco’s move up 4 spots to grab Defensive End Jarvis Moss. There seems to be a big focus on Defense by many teams this year!

The biggest surprise of the day was poster child Brady Quinn who was passed up over and over again but eventually the Browns traded up to get him in the 22nd pick over all in the 1st round. This worked out well as he was a Cleveland Browns fan as a kid. The look of anguish was priceless from the rookie.

Warriors Game 3 vs Dallas!

Last night the Warriors destroyed the Mavericks in a huge win with a final score of 109 -91. It looked like role reversal as the Warriors made the Mavericks frustrated with 2 technical fouls! In the second half Dallas never pulled close as the Warriors were always had a double digit lead. The crowd was just insane and as stated on KNBR “the fans won’t let the Warriors lose.” You could hear the fans blasting through the television set and they seemed to be standing the entire game. Dallas has given the Warriors all they’ve got and the Warriors aren’t even flinching except on Wednesday. I say the odds are stacked against the Mavericks and the Warriors need to take care of business tomorrow night!

Plug for Vitamin and Smart Water

I never really cared too much for either of these, but since they started to stock these at work I am quite a big fan! Smart Water has electrolytes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolytes) which is good for ya! They also take the base Smart Water and developed Vitamin Water which is very good for you! My favourite Vitamin Water drink is Formula 50, 50 cents water! I am a convert. I have not tried to hydrate on this after sports but should give it a try. I probably will stick to Gatorade but supposedly I get a-lot of sugar and sodium with Gatorade. But with a gruelling work out, it may not be a bad thing!
