From fancy New Year's parties to anniversaries in the spring to prom to weddings to the opening of football season (well, in our house, at least), women will find themselves in constant need of a beautiful new dress to wear for the occasion, and men will find themselves in constant need of not spending the entire day at a dress shop, and also not spending a lot of money.Elegant Mart helps everyone in that scenario. With a few clicks, women can shop for all the fancy formal wear they want: evening dresses, prom dresses, things to wear to weddings, it's all there. And the men can sit at the table reading Sports Illustrated and pretending to look when their wives tell them to look. When the time comes to pay, men, you'll be happy, too, because Elegant Mart's prices are great.Dress up more and less: More dresses, more ease, less expensive. | | By: Under The Eyes Of God | | |

El Barcelona si cae eliminado no podrá disputar la Euroliga en la proxima temporada, por lo que está obligado a vencer en esta eliminatoria para que la temporada no sea un autentico fracaso.

El destino ha querido que Real Madrid y Unicaja, ultimos dos campeones, se enfrenten en esta primera eliminatoria, duelo muy interesante y el hecho de que la eliminatoria de Cuartos y Semifinales sean a 3 partidos (a mi parecer muy injusto) hace que pueda saltar la sorpresa. Hace tiempo que se sabia que el emparejamiento del Real Madrid sería con el Unicaja y llevan varias semanas preparando este partido. Hay que recordar que en la fase regular cada uno de los dos equipos venció en su cancha.

Philly has been carried by timely goals and excellent goaltending.The Flyers have to come out fast in Game 1. If they play poorly the Philly fans will begin to turn on them quickly. If the Flyers go down 0-2 expect the sweep.

And sure they will face against the Cavaliers which only take six games with the Washington Wizards. On Western, the Los Angeles Lakers got plenty days to get some rest to play against the Jazz who beat the Rockets, personally I would like Lakers play on Rockets on second round which more interesting game between Kobe and McGrady.

I don't think anyone in Philly, outside the city and around the country thought this was a realistic possibility. Especially when you consider on February 4th the Sixers were 12 games below .500 at 18-30. The growth and improvement this team has shown is remarkable. And tremendous credit must got to Ed Stefanski for coming in telling Mo to play the young guys. As well as Maurice Cheeks for not pushing back on that request and making the most of every players ability. | | By: The Recliner GM Sports Blog | | |

| | The Playoffs: How To Keep Your Cool | | 2008-04-03 11:48:14 | | I constantly marvel at how Bill (IwoCPO) and his disciples at Abel To Yzerman can be so pompous and full of themselves throughout every regular season, but come playoff time they collapse into wavering puddles of stress and nervousness as they anxiously await the impending and unavoidable collapse of the Red Wings in the post-season. First round or third, it doesn't matter. They know that the Wings will hit the wall and they agonize over every little sign that something has started to go wrong. His latest post (and the comments) is just one example of this peculiar phenomenon. Here at Mile High Hockey, we Avalanche fans have it a little easier. Sure, we're still used to our team making the playoffs and reaching at least the second round every time, but last year's debacle and this year's near-miss have jaded us a bit.

| | | | Divisional Playoffs Recap | | 2008-01-13 20:52:00 | | So much for going 11-0 in picking the playoffs. Only went 2-2 this week in picking winner and 1-3 against the spread.Packers over SeahawksThis was an easy one to pick. Seattle has no running game and I didn't expect them to do much in the snow at Lambeau Field against Brett Favre. Ryan Grant really has come out of nowhere, hasn't he? Goes to show that drafting running backs early is not a good idea unless they are absolutely special.Patriots over JaguarsAnother easy one to pick, though the Jags did manage to cover the spread. Somehow they kept it relatively close, but if you look at the stats, there was no way that Jacksonville could have won this game. Aside from a game-ending pick, the Jags played an excellent game. Garrard did exceptionally well vs the Patriots defense, they had some success running the ball, and there were almost no penalties.Still, the Patriots handled them easily. Tom Brady was impossibly good, going 26 for 28, with one of the incompletions being a foolish Welker drop (I don't remember the other one). They did whatever they wanted with Jacksonville's D.Chargers over ColtsThis was a huge surprise to me. I know the Chargers always play the Colts tough, but its the playoffs and the Colts were at home as defending champs. Phillip Rivers hasn't struck me as a clutch QB till now, and I was certain the game was over when Volek took the ball down 3, without LT and with a hobbled Antonio Gates.How the Colts lost this one is beyond me.Giants over CowboysAnother huge upset, though part of me saw this coming. The Giants had been uncharacteristically hot entering the playoffs, and the 'Boys were ice cold and beginning to flounder. I still picked the Cowboys because I have zero faith in Eli Manning's ability to succeed in the playoffs. However, he keeps proving me wrong somehow.As for next week's conference title games....Patriots over ChargersThis really is a no-brainer.

| | Chargers find there are catches to winning in playoffs | | 2008-01-07 11:07:00 | | The Tennessee Titans based their chances against the Chargers on stopping LaDainian Tomlinson and Antonio Gates in Sunday’s wild card playoff game.That they did … but win they didn’t.So why were the Chargers able to pull out a 17-6 victory for their first playoff win in 13 years?Because once it was obvious Tomlinson couldn’t run (21 carries, 42 yards, 1 touchdown) and Gates (sprained left big toe) was injured in the second quarter, the Titans lost their game plan.They had prepared so much for silencing Tomlinson and Gates that they forgot about San Diego wide receivers Chris Chambers and Vincent Jackson.Chambers had six receptions for 121 yards; Jackson made five receptions for 114 yards and the go-ahead touchdown in the third quarter.And once Jackson’s catch gave the Chargers a 10-6 lead, the game was over. It was obvious that Tennessee’s lame offense wasn’t going to score a touchdown if the game lasted until Friday."It's a relief, but at the same time, it's not like we're saying, 'OK, we won a playoff game, so let's get ready to lose,' you know what I mean?” Tomlinson said. “I'm already thinking about next week and how tough of a game we're going to have going to Indianapolis, facing the champs."Yes, it’s going to get tougher for the Chargers. They have recorded seven straight wins – coming against five losing teams, along with two victories over Tennessee.The Indianapolis Colts team they face on the road Sunday is the defending Super Bowl champion, mind you.The Chargers have made a habit lately of being a strong second half team against weak teams. This week, they better play a strong first half or there may not be enough margin of error after halftime.But at least the Colts learned one thing sitting on their collective couches Sunday: If you slow down Tomlinson and Gates, it might not be enough to beat the Chargers anymore. | | By: San Diego Sporting | | |
| | | Ninth Inning Home Runs Assure The Red Sox A Win...And A Clinch For The Playoffs! | | 2007-09-23 12:06:00 | | Boom! BOOM! And just like that, in the ninth inning Saturday night, the Boston Red Sox forged ahead to an 8-6 lead and Jonathon Papelbon started warming up in the bullpen for the bottom of that frame. And 12 pitches later, it was ovah!! SOX WIN, and better yet, they clinched a playoff berth....no ifs, ands or buts. They're in. Of course, winning the AL East would be so nice, but that will have to wait as they try to win all seven of their remaining games. Were it not for the ineptitude of the Toronto Blue Jays, who blew a 2 run lead over the Yankees in the bottom of the ninth, the Sox would be up by 3 1/2 games instead of 2 1/2. But an error by the Jays' second baseman let the tying two runs score, and the pinstripers went on to win the game in 10. Oh well, enough about them.Daisuke Matsuzaka was good until the seventh inning, when he walked Velandia and Iwamura. His night was done, and the score at the time, with 2 on and 2 out, was 5-3 Sox. A quality start, albeit with a ton of pitch | | By: Peter's Red Sox Forever | | |
| | Can Padres pitchers match up in playoffs? | | 2007-09-19 04:57:00 | | Since it looks like a strong possibility that the Padres will make the National League playoffs, the team might soon have to figure out its postseason pitching rotation.Of course, the rotation would start with Jake Peavy, Greg Maddux and Chris Young.After that, it’s a big question mark since current numbers 4 and 5 starters Brett Tomko and Jack Cassel are not eligible for the playoffs because they were not on the Padres’ roster Sept. 1.In all likelihood, that would make Justin Germano (who has been dropped out of the rotation), the number 4 starter.The other three all have question marks to consider:Peavy is 0-2 with a 12.10 ERA in two postseason starts.Maddux is 5-3 with a 3.47 ERA in the division series, but he’s just 4-8 with a 3.80 ERA in the league championship series.Young has been the only winning pitcher for the Padres during the last two years of the playoffs, yet he has not won this season since July.Looking at the Padres’ possible chances playoffs, these numbers are only food for thought. | | By: San Diego Sporting | | |
| | Countdown to the Playoffs | | 2007-09-15 18:20:00 | | Yesterday I updated my countdown clock, and now it refers to the start of the MLB playoffs, which begin with the Divison Series on October 3. No time is yet set for the first game that day, so I used 12 noon until I find an exact time.Last night? Less said about that travesty the better. Terry Francona did an absolutely awful job of managing the pen in the eighth. I have a lot of respect for Tito's ability as a manager (he's the best Red Sox manager since Dick Williams), and he handles a bullpen far better than Joe Torre does, but he blew it last night by not having Manny Delcarmen or Jonathan Papelbon throwing when the inning started, and it cost them the game. Hideki Okajima is crashing down to earth, and it may finally be time to use Eric Gagne in the eighth, the main reason they got him.That game took about five years off my life last night. | | By: The Mighty Quinn Media Machine | | |

| | Not many fights in playoffs | | 2007-06-04 21:03:00 | | It's been a while since I've last posted. There hasn't been much since Flames' Dion Phaneuf and Red Wings' Todd Bertuzzi had their wrestling match. Although the Ducks' Shawn Thornton and Red Wings' Danny Markov had a short fight if you want to call it that. And in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals there was a big scrum with Senators' Mike Fisher and Ducks' Ryan Getzlaf going at it and Senators' Peter Schaefer and Ducks' Dustin Penner wrestling on the ice. | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | NBA Playoffs no longer watchable | | 2007-05-21 17:57:00 | | Do you still care about the NBA Playoffs? I don't.I tried to watch some of the San Antonio-Utah matchup Sunday, and couldn't do it. Tim Duncan may very well be the best power forward in NBA history, and he may be en route to his fourth title, but the Spurs are just not watchable.Maybe it's because of lingering resentment over the Phoenix series, but I just can't watch the Spurs win again. They are dull, dull, dull. And Utah just plain isn't going to be good enough to give them a real challenge.As for the Detroit-Cleveland series, it might be interesting if I thought LeBron James had a real chance of leading the Cavs past the Pistons. But, I don't. When the Pistons feel like playing nobody in the Eastern Conference is as good as they are. They won't take their foot off the gas in this series, and they'll win it in 5.Then, we will get a matchup of two very good, but very dull and methodical teams playing for the title.And, as much as I love basketball, I won't be watching.techno | | By: Valentine's Views on Sports | | |

| | Civility? During the Playoffs?! | | 2007-05-04 21:41:00 | | The hockey "blogosphere" (I hate that term) is a funny place. Like any subculture dominated by diehard devotees, hockey has a knack for producing foul-mouthed jerks bent on insulting anyone who disagrees with any opinion to which they adhere. The playoffs compound this infinitely.I tend to spend too much time perusing blogs from all over the league, and at a lot of those with teams still in the playoffs, the comments sections have gotten pretty nasty. Name-calling, personal insults, even homophobia and some veiled racism here and there. Fans from one team will torment the blog of another for days, especially after their team wins a game. It's pretty sad.Sometimes, cooler heads prevail. In one case, the blogger himself pulled the plug. In another, those who commented policed themselves and actually DISCUSSED the merits and weaknesses of each playoff team without petty attacks and cheap-shots. Can more hockey fans keep their heads about them and act like adults, instead of like | | By: Dear Lord Stanley | | |
| | NHL playoffs fights | | 2007-04-15 22:31:00 | | Even though we're not deep into the playoffs there have been a few fights. This is a surprise to me and a good surprise. The Sharks-Predators series has been nasty as there have been cheap shots, fights, and now even coaches talking through the media about the series. Nice! This series so far has had Ryane Clowe vs Jordin Tootoo, Mike Grier vs Scott Hartnell, and Scott Hannan vs Jerred Smithson all happened at the same time. The best fight was between Clowe and Tootoo as after the fight Tootoo had a bloody nose. Watch the clip of these fights below.Sharks vs Predators fightsIn the Wild-Ducks series, so far there has been one fight with Brent Burns and Chris Kunitz. I gave that one a draw. In the Penguins-Senators series, there has been two fights. The first with Colby Armstrong and Mike Comrie going at it. I gave that one a draw as not much happened in it. Tonight, Dean McAmmond and Maxime Talbot had a spirited bout after Armstrong took out Patrick Eaves with a big hit. I gave the edg | | By: NHL Hockey Fights | | |
| | Playoffs, Here We Come | | 2006-12-31 22:40:00 | | Of course, we knew last week that we were headed for the playoffs, but the win this week just made it sweeter. 12-4. That's a good record. Not outstanding, I suppose, but pretty darn good. A 75% win rate with so many injuries is impressive. (Speaking of injuries, Rodney Harrison had BETTER not be seriously hurt! We just got him back, and it was such a morale booster.) A great game, all in all. And the win didn't feel ruthless at all, ruining another team's playoff hopes while we were already headed for the postseason, because of all the fighting and animosity during the game. All those fifteen-yard penalties just made me want the win more.It was an interesting game, too, despite the fact that the final outcome didn't matter for us. Asante Samuel came up with two more spectacular interceptions, to add to his eight; his ten now lead the league (as I write this post). Vinny Testaverde came in and threw a touchdown pass, making it 20 consecutive seasons for him with at least one | | By: Scarlet Fever | | |
