Oughts In Review- 2001
Here's year 2 of the decade for your perusal:
News:
One event will always be remembered from 2001, of course I am speaking of 9/11. Everything else that occurred (Gary Condit & Chandra Levy, continuing controversy of the Bush election, etc), fell by the wayside when we were attacked on that fateful day. No one will ever forget where they were, nor should they.
Sports:
Another crappy year for my teams, in fact both the Dodgers (86-76) and Cowboys (5-11) finished with the exact same records as the year before. Atlanta continued its run of major sporting events, as we hosted the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Basketball Tourney, and the PGA Championship. I got to attend both, along with my first major college football game (UGA vs. SC) and first NFL game (Cowboys vs. Falcons). The return of MLB after the attacks, followed by a World Series for the ages (Yankees v. D-Backs), capped off a good sports year.
New MLB Stadiums Seen: 1 (Tampa Bay)
