The words are coming slow today, must be the cold weather and the long weekend of music and camping that I experienced. Well, if sleeping in my van down by the river is considered camping. Sure, why not. Camping. So as you can imagine I didn’t get a chance to watch much football or baseball this weekend. Thank you internet for catching me up. I love you. Surely looks as if I missed a good weekend of football. No.1 Florida squeaked out a win on a last second field goal to beat Arkansas and stay undefeated. No.2 Alabama’s passing game struggled against No.22 South Carolina, but with the help of sophomore running back, Mark Ingram and his 246 yard performance and 1 TD, they came out on top. Alabama moved into the No.1 spot in the AP poll but remained in 2nd in the BCS poll. Boo. BCS go away and take your computer rated scoring system with you. That will be all. I’m just saying. I will have to admit, I like Bama, not to be jumping on the bandwagon or anything but my friend Heather’s enthusiasm for Bama football is contagious and my team Maryland couldn’t beat their way out of a wet paper bag. That quote was for you Pepaw, one of your favorites. Heather, you like that don’t you? Thought so. Anyway, we had some upsets this weekend as No.19 Georgia Tech beat No.4 Virgina Tech keeping their ACC championship hopes alive and knocking VT way down in the polls. Unranked Purdue upset No.7 Ohio State. Former Purdue QB and current New Orleans QB Drew Brees sent Purdue QB Joey Elliot a text message that said: Hey, go out there and shock the world, have fun. I’ll be watching. That’s pretty damn cool. Elliot and Purdue definitely shocked Ohio State, not so sure about the world though. No.15 Nebraska was also upset by a unranked Texas Tech. Things are starting to shape up in college football. Now, if we could have a playoff championship bracket like the way college basketball does instead of this BCS BS, I’d be more likely to get excited about the end of season and the bowl games that lie ahead. But money talks, loud. Doesn’t talk to me though, damn it. I’m just saying.
It’s official, my team the Washington Redskins suck, real bad. Just for the record I hope we lose the remainder of our games this season, at least then we could get a good draft pick next year, unless we’ve given them all away for big name players that are all washed up. I’ll look into that. Rich boy owner Daniel Synder kills me, (bleep,bleep,bleep). That will be all. Holy touchdown Batman. Tom Brady, the Patriots QB threw 5 tds in the 2nd quarter alone. Wow. The Patriots went on to embarrass the Tennessee Titans. 59-0. Ouch. Another game that stands out for me is New Orleans Saints vs. the N.Y football Giants. Both teams were undefeated going into yesterdays game. Drew Brees put on another clinic, throwing for 4 tds. The man is on a mission. Brees has been making plays all season and is by far the ultimate leader of his team. Work it out Brees. I’m just guessing here, but the city of New Orleans could probably use something to cheer for. I’m just saying. Mark Sanchez, what happen? 3-0 start for you and the N.Y Jets only to lose the next 3. I was excited for you guys, you had me believing. Yesterday you played like a rookie, throwing 5 interceptions, and 1 in overtime. Neither the N.Y Jets or the Buffalo Bills looked like they wanted to win this game. Buffalo won on field goal in the closing minutes of OT. I mean what? The Bills, really. I’m just saying. Monday nights game features the 5-0 Denver Broncos vs. the 2-2 San Diego Chargers. Should be a good one. I think I’ll just watch this game with the t.v on mute and listen to some music. Jon Gruden please be quiet and let Jaws talk. Shhhhhhhh! I’m just saying.
Yo check it, you guys see how my Redskin shirt is in a basket of dirty laundry? That’s exactly how it will stay until they win a game. I’m still Redskins all day, but geez. That shirt could stay dirty for awhile. I’m just saying.
