Who am I?

I'm from Houston, a graduate of the University of Texas, a fan of the Houston Astros and Houston Texans. But this blog will be about the "greater sports", whatever that means.

Sportsman of the Week Ending 3/11/2012

A spectacular performance in a single game earns the title of Sportsman of the Week for Lionel Messi. An unprecedented five goals in a Champions League match (25th, 42nd, 49th, 58th, and 84th minutes) is a notch in the career hall of fame stick for Messi, thrusting him into a small group of elite who can be debated as "Best Ever". Now if he can just bring a World Cup back to the pampas of Argentina, his legacy will be cemented. For now, he'll have to settle for being the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
