Stick a fork in.....

The Toronto Raptors. In Game One, at home, against the Cleveland Cavaliers (a #1 seed vs a #4 seed), the Raptors had the Cavs down 15 points in the third quarter. And they blew it.

They just got blown out in Game Two. Now the series goes to Cleveland for Games Three and Four.

Stick a fork in the Raptors. They're done. As usual.

The Philadelphia 76ers are a young and up and coming team. If they can stay healthy and keep the team together, they'll be a force to be reckoned with in a couple years.

But not this year. They had the Boston Celtics down 13 points and should have evened the series at 1-1. And they blew it.

Let's not forget, the Celts are playing without their two best players, namely All-Star forward Gordon Heyward, and super-star guard Kyrie Irving. If they can't beat the depleted Beaners under those conditions -- stick a fork in them. Though if the Sixers go back home and win Games Three and Four to tie the series, it could get interesting. That's a definite maybe. They have a pulse, though it's faint. Winning four out the next five is a very tall order. We'll see.

A couple days ago, there was an ominous rumbling in the distance, and it kept getting louder and louder. What could it be?

Yep, His Highness Tiger Woods was entering another golf tournament. Let the hype begin -- again.

Yet after one round of the Wells Fargo Open, dear Eldrick finds himself 6 shots behind. Where have we heard that before lately? Another round like that, and he just might miss the cut -- again. Even par isn't going to get it on the PGA tour, unless the tournament is the US Open, always ridiculously hard courses, where par is oftentimes really good. Quail Hollow, in Charlotte NC, though semi-tough, site of the Wells Fargo, isn't one of those venues.

I've been saying it since his marriage exploded. Stick a fork in this guy. Now in his forties, no way is he going to compete against the awesome fields of younger guns now on the tour. It doesn't have to be one guy every week -- say a Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, or Rory McIlroy. But it's always going to be somebody, likely a lot of them, that will bury Woods in any given tournament.

He had his decade of greatness, likely the most dominant decade of all time in golf.

But it's over.

Get used to it.

And all the hype and hero-worship in the world isn't going to change that.

Stick a fork in him.

He's more done than a goose left overnight in a 500 degree oven.
