Bobby Petrino
Made a "mistake" by taking the Falcons job and millions of dollars from Aurther Blank. WOW! Now he goes back to collage, the SEC, and takes over an Arkansas job that should be loaded for the next several years. Next year the SEC is the conference to watch. Let's see how Bobby B does in the recruiting stages of his new career over the next several months.
I had this conversation last night at the gym. When do you know a collage coach will always be a collage coach? Pete Carroll did the right thing by staying at USC a few years ago after he won the national championship and every NFL team was after him. He know he could never make it in the pro's (Just look at his pro record, not good.) I think it is something like once a collage coach, always a collage coach. (The just do not do well moving up the ranks. I do not care how good the money is.)
Speaking of collage coaches
The Les Miles rumors of him going to Michigan will not stop. And why should they? HE CALLED MICHIGAN TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH!
Les is a Michigan alum. A Michigan supporter, and an avid fan. The LSU job is the right place for him but his loyalty, fan pressure, and the Michigan Ad may move him to take the job. He did sign and extension with LSU but there is a clause in there that will let him opt out to take the Michigan job. I think this is a dome deal after the bowl game is done.

Mitchell report
The MLB get a sneak peek at the report today.
I bet it is only once sentence.
"Yup, you got a steroid problem".
Cubs get FU
That's Kosuke Fukudome
(Someone tell me how to pronounce his last name right. I am dying to start the limerick process)
Some off the top of my head
K-FUK ?
Sorry, i can not do the rest. Too unclean even for me.
T.J. Ford
Took a nasty spill last night during the Raptors game and left on a stretcher. Normally that fall would not have effected a normal player that way. But TJ had two of he vertebrae fused 3 years ago. Last word i heard was he had movement in all of his extremities.
I really hate the weather.
Not so much in Connecticut but in the midwest. This ice storm is really screwing up my buisnees here in Connecticut. The ice storm stopped the truck and of course stopped any shipment coming into Connecticut. Do we have trucks with ice scates on them yet? There has to be a better way.
PATS / JETS
Did you see the line in Vegas was 27 points? Jim Rosse who announces the WWE Monday night raw broadcast use to say about Stone Cold Steve Austin that he was about to "stop a mud hole in his opponent and walk it dry".
I think that is probably appropriate for what is about to happen to the Jets. Anyone got tickets for this public Lynching?
With the game expected top be as big a blow out as everyone is saying expect the T.V. ratings to be threw the roof. (almost like of they sold pay-per-view subscriptions for a public execution. Everyone would be agents it but 90% of them would watch.
More later.

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 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
