Post 100

I know it's not that big of a deal but hey, it's 100. A lot has happened between the first post (Boo-able) and this one. I remember thinking I wouldn't keep it for long but since I have a sympathy ready, I decided to keep it going. Alright, this time for Weekly Sports History, I don't want to do a lot of rambling about nothing so I'll keep it to a minimum. The No. 100 does bring up a lot of things.

Wilt's 100 point game, running backs generally shoot for 100 yard games and now, well 100 posts doesn't measure up to anything as I sit here blogging. I could've added a heck of a lot more to WHS this week but I have to do homework if I want to graduate. On a side note, I took the picture in Canton.
