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.

Game of Choke: who shall reign supreme?

This weekend, football fans have the pleasure of watching two of the greatest playoff chokers in recent memory play each other: Tony 'Fugly Beret' Romo (Dallas) vs. Brett 'Retire?' Favre (Minnesota). Favre brings decades -- literally decades -- of choking experience with him, but Romo has been the most consistent for choking late in recent years. The question is: who will choke and lose?

I do have to say that the Viking losses in December were less about Favre choking (unlike his time with the Jets) than the rest of the team laying down and almost dying at times -- karma at its finest. However, I have faith that his experience with choking will serve him well here.

Dallas Cowboys resort to Survivor tactics

The Dallas Cowboys have started a new reality show in which the winner gets a chance to go to the Cowboys' training camp.

Why does absolutely none of this surprise me?

Please tell me that somewhere they feature a giant cut-out of Tony Romo promoting Doritos as part of their Superbowl promotion; there is one at my local supermarket and when I first saw it, I laughed really, really hard.
