World Championship # 3!!
What a night!! I had to miss the first half tonight, but I was able to liten to the half-time report on the radio while driving home and see the entire incredible second half. This is the first time that I've been able to be in SA when the Spurs won a championship. The first year, I was with my best friend in high school spending the night at her house which is about 30 minutes outside of SA, and the second time I was in Waco. It was so fun to be in town for this won...I mean one. (Ok, bad pun, but I couldn't resist.) I watched the second half with my mom and then we celebrated with some champaign durring the award presentations, then I went to Jims to celebrate with my boyfriend over some desserts. The drive to Jims was the best part. Horns were honking and people were cheering all over the place. I even got a cop car to honk with me while we waited at a stop light. (Pretty daring, I thought.) It was like Baylor's campus after we beat A&M in football or after the Lady Bears won the championship, but on a much larger scale.
I'm going to half to miss the Saturday parade because my boyfriend and I are going to visit my sister and her husband in Houston, but if I wasn't doing that I'd probably have to work anyway. I am a little bit dissapointed becuase I really wanted Manu to win the MVP award, but my only reason is because I like him so much. I am glad that Tim got it though because that puts him up there with Magic, Jordan and Shaq as a three-time Finals MVP winner. What an exciting time to be a Spurs fan. (I've been one since I was eight, and it only gets more and more exciting.) Something else really exciting is that Tim and Manu are signed on until 2010 and Tony is signed until 2011. Thats three key playes that we get for at least five more seasons each. WOW!! We havce such a great team all around. I'm so proud!! (Not that I had anything to do with the win...I'm just proud of the guys.)
Goodnight...it's late.
