Soon we'll be watching tap football and we'll have to clap for our opponents when they score or make a nice play because, well, because it's just an awful darn nice thing to do!
No celebration?
No in your face? What in the wild world of sports, as Slim Pickens said, is the sporting world coming to? We're red meat eating Americans, right? Jake Locker can't throw a ball in the air and Tom Brady is not allowed to be injured and soon Peyton Manning will get done for the season too- but not if the refs have their way. Last night a Bears LB got a fifteen yarder for a love tap on Peyton's head. It didn't matter as karma kicked in and the Bears one for having an awesome D and an O that could occasionally make plays... (did I say Defense Wins Championships? I think I did (see previous post)
Anyways, get ready for a good game after this Minny/vs/Packattack game with an effective O vs an effective D once again. If you can have one or the other, pick the D.
Anyways again-the NFL is going to do it's best to protect marquee QBs this year. There are fewer and fewer left. Tony Romo almost got knocked out against the Browns and Peyton is being held together by safety pins and Farveee is just Farvee and he doesn't get hurt- or he just takes pills so he can play the next game (don't worry prescription drugs will only kill your liver while marijuana will only cure your gloucoma).

Sunday Night's Best
Sportshernia has some of the new, fantastic features of Madden such as the secret code to turn the Browns Steelers game into excite bike racing Ben Roethlisberger vs "Lieutenant Winslow". The Pacman Tank feature allows the Cowboys to acquire any and all active criminals... cleek here and read em all.
This website, Pollspeak lets you analyze the pollsters. It's very cool. You can see how individuals are voting as well as how each team is voted on. Many of the voters allow their regional biases to influence them. Many are just plain stupid, but you can tell which ones are stupid right off the bat. And that's fun. Taylor Zarzour should probably have his voting privelages revoked. Wisconsin, 9 (no returning QB), Ohio State, 13th... Penn State 8th?
The Columbus Dispatch and others close to the program have been mentioning that Walt Harris is hanging around. He coached QBs and ran offense under Cooper during Coop's salad days with the Buckeyes when they were rolling up big numbers on offense. There's potential he could be stepping in to replace coach Joe Daniels (coached Marino at Pitt) who's been going through many, many rounds of chemo. Daniels looked bald, but very active during practice on the Big 10 Network's behind the scenes.
Most don't believe Tressel could ever give up control of the O or even accept input.
In current news, w/ 7:22 to go in the 3rd Quarter the Patriots are royally ineffective on Offense w/out Brady with poor protection, poor execution, lots of drops. Their frontline defense couldn't stop the Jenny Garcia-less Bucs either. They looked a step slow as Vrabel, Bruschi, John Lynch et al ust look like Grumpy old Men on the sidelines yukking it up while being down 27-3. You know what? It's good to be a millionaire athlete. I don't care who you are. The Pats can't catch or throw to guys in their color jerseys. A shotgun snap gone awry bounced right up into the arms of a blitzing Bucs safety for a quick six on Matt Cassel's last play.
