Another year in sports is over. It was a great year for Pittsburgh fans. The Pens and Steelers won titles. Philadelphia fans saw their baseball team win another pennant only to fall in the Fall Classic. The Yankees turned in another World Series title in the first year of their brand new ballpark. The L.A. Lakers were crowned kings of the NBA and the Florida Gators made it another BCS championship for Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer. Juan Martin Del Potro served up the U.S. Open title and dethroned Roger Federer in the process. Kim Clijisters came back to notch her second career U.S. Open over first time finalist, Caroline Wozniacki in tennis’ final grand slam of the year. An Alabama back earned college football’s highest achievement when Mark Ingram took home the hardware at the Heisman Trophy presentation. Michigan State made an improbable run in March Madness by dishing out wins to reach the championship game. The Spartans lost to North Carolina but elevated their hoops program by leaps and bounds. It was a forgettable year for Tiger Woods on the golf course, but one no one will forget off the greens. The headaches, heartaches and shockers will continue in 2010. Sports fans will able enjoy many wonderful events and memorable moments. Here’s hoping everyone has a happy and healthy New Year. Let’s start this one off with a Buckeye Rose Bowl victory.
