Hey Sports Fans...There are only four football games left!!! |
|
That's if you count the Pro Bowl which no one ever does.
2 Games Sunday. 1 Game 2 weeks from Sunday.
Then a week later one game no one gives a rats ass about.
Then that's it.
We got Nascar I guess. I just can't stand the NBA anymore. And I was once a really big fan.
No Hockey. That's killing me. I've been an NHL fan since I was a kid. They're killin' me.
Baseball? Talk to me in September.
But I love college football and I love the NFL. My team is not in the mix (Denver) and the finality of it all seems to bum me out.
SO.
I think I'll do a shot of Tequila since it's FOUR FREAKIN' DEGREES out and I'll look forward to next year and lament the mistakes we made this year.
OH, and may I add this...
BOOSH is an asshole and I would love to see the front line of the Steelers rip him to shreds.
During halftime of Sunday's game.
But that's just me.

1. Three. Nobody counts the Pro Bowl. |

A friend of mine just got me watching the Suns last night -- man, they're fun to watch. I usually can't stand the NBA either, but just like the Mavs last year, the Suns caught my eye. Even when they lose, as they did to the Spurs, they still put on quite a show.

we've got figure skating! :puke:
The end of the NFL season makes me sad. College football was a wild ride this year. Don't care for basketball till March Madness. NBA/NHL-when they play is like what, a year and a half for regular season? Baseball is a sport where you need to be at the park to appreciate it. Doesn't always come off well to me on TV.

3. Cliff Notes Version of Patriots VS Steelers. |

...in simple terms so that even I can understand it. The analysis is short and concise and not what you may have heard from the talking sports heads at ESPN, CBS, or Fox. They have too much air time, and not enough to say. And why they never said this, it's because they're busy with match-ups and formations you'll never be able to identify with television being an art form, and not a game film.
Are you ready for your 101 course into who will win the football game? Here it is....
Bill Belichick, knowing he's facing a rookie quarterback in Steeler Ben Rothlisberger is going to make him throw the ball to win. Ergo, Billy ball will be concentrated on stopping the run. Eight and maybe at times, 9 in the box. If the Pat's can stop the run, and make Ben throw, they'll win. Why? Ben is best known for handing off the ball and riding the bus.
For the Steelers, the proposition is simple. They need to find a way to "Run" The against the Patriots. They don't need big runs, only about 4 yards per carry, since 4x3 ='s a first down. If the Steelers are successful at blowing the Pat's off the ball, they'll win.
Class dismissed.

a game where a large orange ball is bounced up and down in a gymnasium until it's nice enough outside to play baseball.
