Lost Balls

Larry Bird has lost his balls.
#1 - Larry Bird.
Did any one read the article on Tinsley this morning? He got shot at. One of his "friends" got busted for skipping on a warrent (not a good sign). Guess where he was when all of this happened?

A STRIP BAR...............................
*
TA-DA! When are these players going to learn? Take it from Lebron. He built a house that has
#1 - A casino
#2 - A full bar
(If he was smart he would put and a strip bar and invite all of the players over to his place).
And Larry Bird says the Paces will not take any action on him. WTF???
Larry Legend is getting soft in his old age. Back in the day if Kevin, Danny, Dennis or any of the other guys had pulled any crap like this (relatively speaking) they would have had a team meeting and beat his ass then sent him out on the floor for the entire game.

Done for now.

Monday Round up.

Don't piss off the Partiots.
I was listening to the game in the car while i was running around doing some Christmas shopping. (Yes i am shopping Earlie this year.)
I got home around half time and watched the Pats pick apart the Steelers for the rest of the half.
Couple things i saw at the press conference that is obvious.
#1 - Do not give the Pats extra motivation.
#2 - Do not give Touchdown Tom extra motivation.
#3 - Moss plays great with a chip on his shoulder.
#4 - Never ever embarrass or call out the defence.
Best moments of the game was Brady talking shit to the steelers defence after the 2nd touchdown and the moment the steelers knew it was over.
This should be the home stretch of the undefeated season. They have the Jets (72 to 0) The Dolphins (760 to 0) and the Giants (who should have clinched a playoff berth by then and will be resting all of there starters). Then the bye week.
The Pats should be rested and healthy by the time the playoff run comes about.
Are we looking at the greatest team in NFL history? Arguably yes.
I actually just read a story on Fox Sports that Jimmy Johnson thinks Dallas may be the best team in football.
Really????????
I agree as far as a talent standpoint goes the Cowboys may be as talented as the Pats but there is one crucial difference he missed in his story.
Bill Belichick or Wade Phillips ?
Who do you want coaching your team??????

Happy Thursday

LET'S SEE WHAT WE CAN F WITH TODAY....



I'm in a weird mood. Look out.............







Andrew Jones will hook up with Joe Torre.



Not a bad combination. And maybe Donnie Baseball can fix his swing.



2 years 36.2 million. Not quite the 20 mill a year Scott Borasshole was looking for but not a bad chunk of change.





Meta enter the Santana race....


Of course they will. Youth in baseball is one thing, and a very important thing, BUT, Santana in your rotation is more important. If you already have a "good" team. Mets, Boston, Yankee's, Angles. Adding a reliable arm that will give you 15 wins (minimum) 200 plus innings, and 7 plus per start is irreplaceable.


I has been reported that the Mariners are also the front runner for Jananese pitcher Hiroki Kuroda.



This should be interesting. Santana is just not the best avaliable pitcher this year but the best (arguably) of the past decade. This is a one in a lifetime deal for the team that signs him.


Gotta run.

Sorry for the short post.

DETROIT / SHORT POST

Gonna be a short post tonight.
I beat the crap out of myself tonight at the gym. My arms feel like the weigh 400 pounds. I set the laptop on the table and i had to rest for two minutes. Driving home as fun. I took the straightest route possible so i did not have to turn the steering wheel. Tomorrow night is leg night and were doing lots, and lots, and lots of squats.

THE DETROIT TIGERS JUST CLINCHED A PLAYOFF SPOT.
They got Willis and Cabrera from the Marlins. WOW!
There proposed lineup for 2007
Curtis Granderson
Placido Palonco
Gary Sheffield
Magglio Ordonez
Just to name a few.
Now they have Dontrell Willis, Kenny Rogers, Jerrome Bonderman, and Joel Zumia for pitchers. (I know i forgot someone).
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Book these boys a playoff ticket.

LATE NEWS FROM SEATTLE
Seattle had throw there hat into the ring for Johan Santana.
This ought to make the Redsox a little nervous.
This should speed things up a little on the negotiation side of the deal.
I know totally expect the Sox to ante up anything the Twins want for Johan.
$10.00 says this thing is done by Friday.

I'm tired and i am starting to get sore.
See ya tomorrow.

ROSE AND SUGAR BOWL

Gonna give you my take on as may games as i can
While i am still awake and have an Internet connection. (long story)

Rose Bowl
Illinois vs USC
On paper this should be a laugh er. But do not count out Illinois out. Ron Zook will have his team ready. Ill's defence does not get much by way of publicity but they do a great job in zone and man to man. USC's defence is another story and get plenty of the press. Especially the run they had going down the stretch. There defence is not only ranked behind Ohio State.
Illinois has an advantage though. Juice Williams. The best quarterback name in collage today.
USC will have home field advantage even though they are not playing in there home stadium. And if they do not get there own stadium situation straight they will be next year.
I expect this game to become a complete laugh er and most men in America to start flipping over to the UFC somewhere before halftime. But do not take the game off the recall button. It may just surprise you.

SUGAR BOWL
Georgia vs. Hawaii
Two words and two words only will make or break this game.
Colt Brennan.
Georgia must keep Colt Brennan and the high powered Hawaii offence off the field. Hawaii defence is suspect at best. Can, can, play good games (for those of us who set the alarms for 3am to watch a game, we know.) For Hawaii just getting to this game makes them winners already. They should attract some top flight talent over the next two to three years just because of this appearance.
Georgia on the other hand went to bed one night expecting to play for the national title and woke up playing in the Sugar Bowl. The will be nice, they will be considerate. The coach and the players will tell everyone they are excited to play this game. Blah, Blah, Blah.
But look out when they take the field.
This could get ugly, fast.....
My prediction. Georgia by 7

Other news and highlights tonight.
Not really sure. Spike is running the best fight of 2007 and i have not had the heart to change the channel. Plus it keeps the other half out of my room. (Get out of here and go watch Larry King.).
The only thing i can keeping my eye on over the next few days are the winter meeting. I really, REALLY, want to see where Santana goes now that Cashman and the Yankee's have decided to drop out of the arm's race. (or have they?) If the RedSox do get Santana, Game over.
(I would equate this to the Partiots getting Moss.)

RANDOM THOUGHTS FOR TODAY.
I only had two.
#1 - If you wished for something all your life and then finally got it. Is you life over?
Like in the movie "The princess Bride". Inego Montoya sent his whole life trying to get revenge on the 5 fingered man who killed his father. After he finally gets it, he does not know what to do with himself. (Good thing he got an offer for the Dread Pirate Roberts job.)
#2 - What do you think O.J. is thinking at this very moment in time.

I would like your thoughts.

Hungry, I need to eat.

See ya ll tomorrow.

PATS VS RAVENS AND THE BCS CHAMPIONSHIP

This is like Philadelphia all over again.

Kyle Bowler is having a good game. Is every quarterback in the league trying out for a 1st string job when they face the Pats? Baltimore 10 Pats 3 6:34 left in the half and the Pats driving.

Baltimore is all hyped up this game. Ray Lewis during his pre-game warm up looked like he was possessed by Linda Blair.

It's about 25 minutes in the game and they have yet to score a TD.

Brady just got nailed and over threw Moss.

I break in with updates as it goes on.



BCS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

I happen to agree with the fact Ohio State is in the game i only have one problem. They got in the game because they were stagnant for the last 10 days.

I think the SEC was given the benefit of the doubt this year when they put in LSU. The Tigers lost two games this year. BUT the two games too 6 overtimes for them to lose. (Both great games). LSU did not loose a game in regulation. Ohio state's two best wins were Michigan (when they had one foot in the grave) and Wisconsin (coming off a horrible game), LSU won a close game over Florida and just flattened VT.

Both offences are going to come at your defences. both are going to throw, alot! Should be one of the more entertaining games of the season.



BACK TO THE GAME.

About 3 and a half left in the half. the Pats can not hold on the the ball.

Boy Jaws gets really really excited during these games. Tony keeps trying to throw little jabs and jokes to keep thing lively and Mike T. knows every player and every collage team they played on.

Pats punt again. I sure hope when Bellichek goes into the locker room at half time he fixes what ever problem he has.



Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...............................

Did you see Greise in the studio and Shula is in Baltimore at the game?

ESPN has been hyping the pats all year and then they go and invite Greise to the studio and Baltimore probley invited Donnie S. to the gave as an F-U to the Pats.

Think Shula went into the patriots locker room before the game and gave them a pep talk? (That would be like in the movie "Major League" when she came into the locker room and gave them the stats for the previous play off series.)

Don is also going to be in the booth during the 3rd quarter. What possible could he have to say? I'm Don Shula and i am rooting for the Ravens this game because i want to be the only undefeated team and my Dolphins suck?

I had a few Smokes today.
Not alot maybe 4 or 5. I got light headed every time i had one. This sucks. Work got to me a little and i had a half a pack in my car, I just had one tonight and everything is a little fuzzy.

Random thoughts for today.
With 22 days left until Christmas how many sales can Kohl's, J.C Penny and all the other guys come up with? The 7 day before Christmas sales? the one day after the 7 day before Christmas sale?
Is going postal due to the overload of Christmas music a valid defence in a trial if i take someone out for no particular reason?
After taking a dive this morning on the ice, I was laying there wondering if i could move all of my body parts. Once i realized i could i was happy i had Aflak. (But thank god i did not have to use it.)

WOW....
What a power run to start the 3rd quarter for a TD. (I am not liking this.)

Enough for today.
Tomorrow i am going to break down the Rose and Sugar Bowl.

Everyone have a good night.

Go New England !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday Night

Let's go over the earlier games 1st.
On a sad note the Redskins lost the the Bills. The skins dominated most of the game for the most part but i think the emotion of the game got to them at the end. They started the game as i though they would playing only 10 defensive players in remembrance of Sean Taylor.
By now everyone knows that the 4 men the Dade County Police did arrest did shoot Sean. They were not expecting him to be home at the time they broke into his hose to rob him. The 4 are being charged with some sort of non premeditated murder.

Rams killed the Falcons. (who cares)

Adrian Peterson's Vikings rolled all over the Lions. Viking 42 - Lions 10
- Are the lions reverting back to there old ways? I thought John Kinda had this offence on track? Or was it the rookie of the year Adrian Peterson (who ran all over them) that officially stuck a fork in there season? You want to see the Lions do good (for at least one year) but i think there season is done.

Seahawks vs. Eagles was a pretty good game.
I actually got to see a bit of this on the TV.
I was right about McNabb needing to take the week off the let Feeley stink up the joint for another week. Now no one will question that he is the better QB. McNabbs job is safe. (at least until the draft. Two Words. Colt Breenan.)

The ageless Panthers rolled over the 49ers. (only story here is that Vinnie is still playing football. Didn't he turn 85 this week or something?)

I can not believe the Cardnials beat the Browns (27 to 21)
I had such high hope for the Browns this week. But here we go with the "over the hill gang" QB's ruining the point spreads and fantasy leagues around the country again. (RETIRE YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!)

Titans 28 - Texans 20
Colts 28 - Jags 25
(The Jags actually had a great chance to win this game but just could not finish off the colts.)
Changers 24 - Chiefs 10
J-E-T-S 40 - Dolphins 13
Raiders 34 - Bronco's 20
Buccaneers 27 - Saints 23.

And now on to the New York Giants.
I watched this game. I watched the whole game. What a cluster F@#$!
Eli did pull out the win but for 3 and a half quarters he looked like the was pulling his PUD. Could not hit a receiver to save his life. Plexico looked like he was playing on one leg for all but his last catch. Shocky did not have a catch in this game (but did have a could great blocks). The Giants offence looked horrible, just horrible. Even in the last two drives. dropping balls, shaking there heads after every play. Thank god i am not a Giants fan. The Bears looked even worse, except for the 1st drive.

Enough of that.
It's raining again in Pittsburgh. (News flash)
So far the field is holding up pretty good but were only10 minutes into the 1st quarter.

I flipped it over the the bowls selection special but we will break down the bowl games tomorrow night and weather i agree or disagree with the selections. Not enough time tonight and i had a long day.

No, I was not watching TV all day.
I went to the gym, ran arrons, got food, got a hair cut and did a few other ME things.

RANDOM THOUGHTS THAT WENT THREW MY MIND TODAY.
There is a gym around every corner of my town and 5 the next town over in all 4 directions. why do i keep running into so many fat people?
People must be paying money to keep these gyms open, right?
Why when a dusting of snow gets on the ground does the speed limit suddenly drop from 40 to 4 mile an hour? Didn't these people grow up in new england? were use to snow remember?
I was in a computer store today and wondered is MAC and PC hang out after they get dome with the TV commercials?

Commercial - Brad Pitt is making a big announcement tomorrow on the today show!!!!
What's next? We find out Britney Spears is pregnant again? (whoops, sorry......)

Speaking of which. When did Britney go from the guy every guy in American wanted to sleep with to the skank, looser no one in the world (except one) would sleep with no matter how much money she paid you? WOW I remember when she became "legal" and you could talk about here openly in a sexual manner. she was the hottest thing since the last hottest thing you were talking about last week. But she stayed on the spotlight, had a few hits.
Honestly. If someone asked you who is the bigger whore, skank right now between Kevin Federline and Spears, Right now you'd have to say Britney.

I'M STILL NOT SMOKING.
I have not killed anyone yet. (but if i did i would not put it on the internet.)
There are some minutes where everything is fine and then there are the flashes of, just other things. Sometimes is being nerviousness, sometims rage. I get tired really quick, then i get mad for no reason. Then there are the times i am driving. All i can say it is a good thing for everyone on the road that i am still making payments on my car. Remember Mel Gibson on MADMAX? Ohhhh Yea. That would be nothing. I would be like a Nascar driver on crack with his helmet on backwards. (sounds like a movie)
We'll see what happens tomorrw when i get back to work.

I'm hungry and am going to get some icecream.
Hot Fudge Sunday Anyone?
