The week in review

So including this blog, I'm currently keeping up with 3.  That's a lot.  This one may be neglected somewhat as a result.  However, here is a summary of the week:

1) The Pats lost.  Sucks!  But hey, it happens.

2) This:

It was almost worth losing to have this touchdown.  Seriously.  Randy.  LOVE  YOU!!!  And yep, that would be Revis getting completely beat.

3) Lots of work, things to do, etc....  However, we aren't in such bad company.  Looks like the Saints could go 1-1.  It's been a wacky start of the season.  The Bucs are 2-0.  Really?

4) Still love them.  Also there is an awesome ESPN commercial.  I'm hoping to find the link.

Today was a good day

Lots of goodness today.

1) Tony Romo just made one of the most idiotic plays I have ever seen.  Four seconds left in the half, he decides to try a lateral, it doesn't work because the player who catches it fumbles, Washington picks up the ball and scores a touchdown.  Commentators then go out of their way to call him stupid for this play, including a comment that his coach was purportedly 'furious.'  Good stuff.  Looks like we are off to another one of those seasons for the Cowboys.

2) Pats win!  Remember back when we started the season scoring 38 points a lot?  I remember that season, it was 2007.  That's the number of points that we scored today.

3) Randy Moss goes on a rant and tells the media to STFU.  Media response: to make this a far more ridiculous story than it actually was.  Here's what I have to say: pay the man his straight cash, homey.

4) Not only do the Colts lose, they lose because they allow 231 yards on the ground (!).  This is like the 2004 Colts or something.  Going to be a long season if they've regressed on defense.

Belichick of the Week

I realize that I am awarding it far, far too early.  But this one I like a lot.  Upon being asked about any concerns he had about TB's health after the car accident yesterday:

“I always worry about the health of our team. There is nothing more important than the health of our team. Without players, you don’t have a team.”

Genius.

Also, anyone else notice just how rusty and old Favre looked last night?

Belichick is #1!

You probably knew already that I would love any story where Belichick was ranked as the current best NFL coach.  But what I'm really loving are the comments that follow:

"I'm not a pats fan or anything (rams fan actually) but if Belichick isn't the best coach then I don't know what reasons you could possibly have to support it that doesn't involve serious logical fallacies."

"Is Bellichik on the shady side. Probably. But I'd be very surprised if other teams weren't trying to cheat in the same way. When it comes to playcalling and decision making, Bellichik is #1. And I hate the Patriots."

And one of my favorite exchanges ever:

"Bill Belicheat number 1!?!? Of all time!?!?

The Patsys are done like dinner. Brady was never the QB everyone thought he was. He was good, but when you video tape the defensive calls of your opponent it makes QB life much easier.

...and I remember Tara Reid saying that she quit dating Brady years ago because he had bad breath."

Response:

"Brady's stats are ALWAYS near the top. You should do some research... And Tara Reid?.. really? .. He is married to Giselle dip@#$%. I would call that an upgrade...... Tara Reid?? wow, you are a complete tardobott."

It's a great point, actually.  What is Tara Reid up to these days?

Sport writer's contempt for Rusty Old Man thinly veiled

Sage Rosenfels was traded to the NY Giants.

Why is this important?  Well, two years ago, he played for the Houston Texans and did a decent job.  Then he was traded to Minnesota, where he thought he had a shot at the top position.  This thought faded the minute that they acquired Favre, or, as stated by Barry Wilner, "After an offseason of working out and learning the system, however, Rosenfels’ big shot was dashed when Favre waltzed in to take over."

I love it.
