The one thing most humans find hard to do is admit they were wrong about individual based on their ability to do something or actions they do. Those, who achieve things many people it was impossible are believe to be call haters. The term hater to me is like being called a racist these days. In the fact when people looked at the individual who they have doubts in history, especially since it is hard to know a person well. This goes for teams as well, and this past weekend me and countless of others have to admit we were wrong about few teams.
One such team was Manchester United, as a Chelsea fan; I thought Chelsea could easily over take Man U and win the Premier League title. Then, on May 8 in the winner take all match between the teams. Chelsea lost to Manchester United (2-1). And it was a matter of time when Man U finally wraps this race up. This past Saturday Manchester United did their job by earning a draw against Blackburn and winning the Premier League title. Sunday's match against Blackpool will be nothing more than a two hour long celebration and will be fill with complaints from a few people (mostly from fans whose teams are facing relegation). Anyway, I did my job by congratulating the guys in the Red jerseys.

Among the teams, most people thought were not good enough to do something great, like the Miami Heat are on in the Eastern Conference Finals. Another team from the NBA who many people believe cannot do what they are doing is the Dallas Mavericks, who they swept the Los Angeles Lakers in the second round of the playoffs. Now, they are in the Western Conference finals and done quite well in Game 1. The San Jose Sharks and Vancouver Canucks of the NHL are in the Western Conference Finals after years of people who watch hockey believe they are nothing more than chokers on the biggest stage. These teams are proving us wrong in the way we think of them in sports and should be congratulated and be happy for their success.
