This has been a week of sports stars facing reality. To start the week I saw baseball's hit king look terrible on his reality show. He is once again trying to come clean about betting on baseball. Of course everyone knows about Lance Armstrong's interview with the great and powerful Oprah that airs tonight. He finally will admit what everyone already knows.

Today Indiana University and Purdue University played their annual rivalry game against each other. It is a heated contest that puts pride on the line as well as the symbolic 'Old Oaken Bucket.' Today's version of the game was a great game until Purdue broke it open late. When the clock expired I saw fans streaming onto the field so I joined them.

Yesterday we watched a couple of games in Mackey Arena. The first was an alumni basketball game that featured players from last years squad all the way back to a fan favorite player from 1966. The second game was a three part scrimmage featuring this years squad. It is always fun to see the freshman for the first time.

Today at Lambert Field we said goodbye to many things. The first of which is the little stadium that I have come to love. The new one will be much nicer, but for some reason I really like the old one. The new one will actually have locker rooms and other things that a Big Ten facility should have, but I love the fact that seeing a game in Lambert feels like you are in on a secret.

Today after work I drove over to Lambert Field to see the Boilermakers take on Ball State. When I pulled up the game should have been going, but the tarp was on the field even though the rain was not coming down. While waiting for the game to start rain kept coming off and on, and the game was eventually cancelled.

For over five years I have operated a sports blog that I kept up pretty regularly until this one really got going. It has since suffered a bit, but over the past week I really feel like I am getting back into that mindset. I have seen a few sporting events, and this blog has reflected that. I realize that my audience really doesn't like the sports pictures as much, but this is a blog about my life in pictures over the course of a year.

Today I went to the doubleheader at Lambert Field featuring the Purdue Boilermakers and the Fighting Illini of Illinois. I had a couple of ideas for pictures, but this one came to me as I saw Willie Argo warming up just before game two. Today is the 65th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier. I have always admired him for what he did for baseball so I wanted to get a shot that honored him.
