While thousands of Laker fans hit the Coliseum for the Laker parade, there's a lot of work going on behind the world of sports. Word in Boston now, is Ray Allen is getting traded for Adriana Lima. Lebron doesn't win the 'ship but still gets to take his friends to the White House. Tiger is officially back, and to some...A-Rod is on his way. We learn of McHale's end to coaching...thanks to Kevin Love's Twitter. The Ryan Leaf saga oddly continues. Interesting day in sports. Parade snapshot of line courtesy of @Suli80.

Mid-week daily line. Enjoy.

The Masters has started and since Tigger (he hates when I call him that) is in it that means it is relevant to the mainstream media. The nice people of Gatorade given us a peak at this new animated Tiger Woods commercial for Gatorade. Once again I think their campaign people are very innovative. I like this one a lot. Here is some additional info.

Gatorade and Tiger Woods have launched the reformulated Gatorade Tiger
Focus which provides advanced hydration to help promote mental focus, as
inspired by Tiger Woods' legendary mental toughness. To support the
launch the brand has developed "Woods of Wisdom," an ad campaign created
in collaboration with Woods with an animated style that commands
attention and portrays key moments that influenced Woods and his ability
to focus and excel.

Tiger is back and the PGA is giggling like a high school girl who just realized that Robert Littal was going to speak at their career day.

Tiger will be back on the course Wednesday at the Accenture Match Play Championships. This will be shown exclusively on the The Golf Channel starting at 1pm Eastern.

The Golf Channel has put together a video to get everyone hyped up about Tiger's return. Money obviously was no expense because they have Samuel L. Jackson in the video. I would have done it for free as long as I got per Diem, but I digress.

Now that we've said goodbye to the end of an era of mediocrity known as the Bush era and ushered in the new, you can't help but look back at the some of the greatest sports moments of 2008. Here's some that made you laugh, cry or just stare dumbfounded in disbelief. Yea Litall touched on this but as usual, but after much debating, here are MY top picks for best sports stories.

TOP 8 SPORTS MOMENTS OF 2008

8.) Nadal Ends Federer's Reign At Wimbledon

Ok so I'll bite. Now that I've seen video clips, I've decided to kick off my second annual Top Sports Moments list with the history in the making match up between men's tennis
greats Rafeal Nadal and Roger Federer. The grueling five match showdown complete with rain delays was a testament to Nadal's toughness and tenacity and marked the end of Federer's five year reign, as Nadal was crowned Wimbledon champion.

7.)Rays Almost Sting Phillies In World Series

To the victor goes the spoils they say and while the Phillies have been named as the 2008 World Series Champions, the Rays fairytale journey into the World Series contention should definitely NOT go without notice. Just thinking about a team with a 200-1 shot at appearing in the World Series go from worst to first, beating out heavyweights New York and Boston is enough to place this moment in the Top 8 Sports Moments of 2008.

6.) Old Time Rivalry Renewed:Celtics vs Lakers

There's something about reliving the glory days when the NBA Finals was a clash of the Titans between two juggernauts, one from the East and one from the West. Ask anyone about the Celtics vs Lakers rivalry and the names Magic vs Bird, Russell vs come to mind. During the 2008 Finals, David Stern, the media and old school fans got their wish as Kobe led Lakers faced off against the Big 3 of the Celtics composed of K.G., Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. Despite the victory being favored to go to the Lakers, the defensive prowess of the Celtics proved to be too much for the Lakers and the Celtics went on to win the series in 6 games.
