Sayeth TO….
“They still love me, I don’t care what they say,” Owens said. “Those
boos, they ain’t really boos, man. There’s a lot of love in those boos. They
ain’t got no choice but to boo me because I’m on the other side. I guarantee you
if I were to get traded to the Eagles right now, they would love me. …
Really, are you sure those aren’t boos? Wow, you were the worst teammate ever. I tend to think the boos are … well…. boos.

So, Tony Romo has agreed to a six-year, $67 million deal. Alas, the Cowboys have a franchise QB. For years, I thought that they forgot their formula. Romo is the first QB that they have had since Aikman. Kudos to them on getting Romo signed.

I usually laugh when people say things like this… but, after this week, we just have to ask… are the Pats the best team in history? After the 52-7 win over the ‘Skins and the dismantling of the Dolphins, it just seems to me that these guys are that much better than everyone else…. and, yes, I know what you are saying… it is the Dolphins and the Redskins… but, seriously, you have to wonder.
However, they will have their one true test of the season next week against the Colts. If they get past these guys, well, they are are going all the way… all the way to the AFC Championship - where the Pats will, yet again, meet the Colts. Who knows what will happen at that point in the season. Last year, I would have given the Pats the nod in that game - given the Colts’ tendency to blow such games in the past… but, as the reigning champion … who knows how that game will go down? I just can’t wait to see how this drama will play out, this season.

Wow, I have to say, I totally missed this one… I generally have a policy in fantasy. I stay away from rookie running backs. It just seems to me that they are way too succeptible to injury…and, well, they typically underperform…. I do recall how I won a league LT’s rookie year after his break-out weeks #1 and 2… but, that’s another story.
Forward the clock to 2007… I stayed away from Peterson… and boy am I sorry… 5 100 yd+ games - and, well, what he did to the Bears yesterday was simply wrong. So, do you think he will be a top five pick next year? I would say … more than likely. His rookie status is not the only reason I stayed away from him… I just don’t typically buy into the Vikings running game. This is, generally, a good policy… just not this season.
You (and I) passed on him in the draft… you think he is done, right? WRONG. Wow, I try not to kick myself about things like this… it is easy to make a call like this after you see how things turn out… but, WHO would have taken Favre, early?
Right now, if you have Romo or Favre, you are probably sitting pretty. But, those of us who passed on both of these guys are - well - kicking ourselves right now… instead, I ended up with Marc Bulger… who is … well… pathetic (and perpetually hurt).
This is just a very strange season… it seems like almost every team who had anything to do with the play-offs last season has some kind of paralysis… the Chargers? YIKES! (I guess Norv Turner wasn’t the answer. Why do you boot out someone performing like Shottenheimer?) … then, there’s the Bears who weren’t good last year… yet, they made it to the Super Bowl… and then you have teams like the Pack and the Lions who are coming out of nowwhere….
And, of course… lest we mention LT…. JEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez… some of us were so glad to get the first pick in our leagues to draft this guy…. and he is an average to below average running back.
I have been thinking, lately, about how the top 3 picks in most leagues were Steven Jackson, LT, and LJ… and none of them are doing anything… yeah, this is a pretty unique season.
Wow, this is great… the highly benevolent Jerry Jones (God bless him for his wonderful acts.) is at it, again… reaching out to the troubled and broken… and he has been so nice as to take Tank Johnson into the Cowboy fold.
On a radio show in Dallas, yesterday, Jerry the Saint said that “the organization changed to equip itself for better players with troubled pasts.” Is this something new… or has this been in place since Irvin was there…. who will they take in next? Perhaps, Pac-man…. or perhaps the great dog killer, Vick?
You never know where Saint Jerry will strike next. In fact, Dallas may not even need to participate in the draft… I am sure they can pick up enough free agents on parole… hey, is Ray Carouth still in jail?
For goodness sakes, as I sit here watching games, today, I swear that Peyton is in every other commercial. Am I the only one who is tired of looking at him?
Is he the only athlete worthy of being in commercials?
Now, don’t get me wrong…. I am passionate about my sports… but, when you are castrating people out of your allegiance to your team…. well, even I find that to be a little extreme…
To some Oklahoma football fans, there are things that just aren’t done in the heart of Sooner Nation, and one of them is to walk into a bar wearing a Texas Longhorns T-shirt.That’s exactly what touched off a bloody skirmish that left a Texas-shirt-wearing fan nearly castrated and an Oklahoma fan facing aggravated assault charges that could put him in prison for up to five years.
The shocking case has set off a raging debate in this football-crazed region about the extreme passions behind a bitter rivalry. Some legal observers have even questioned whether this case could ever truly have an impartial jury.
“I’ve actually heard callers on talk radio say that this guy deserved what he got for wearing a Texas T-shirt into a bar in the middle of Sooner country,” said Irven Box, an attorney in this city 20 miles from Oklahoma’s campus in Norman.
According to police, 32-year-old Texas fan Brian Christopher Thomas walked into Henry Hudson’s Pub on June 17 wearing a Longhorns T-shirt and quickly became the focus of football “trash talk” from another regular, 53-year-old Oklahoma fan Allen Michael Beckett.
Thomas told police that when he decided to leave and went to the bar to pay his tab, Beckett grabbed him in the crotch, pulled him to the ground and wouldn’t let go, even as bar patrons tried to break it up. When the two men were separated, Thomas looked down and realized the extent of his injuries.
Yes, I know it is random to blog about urinals… but, check these out. But, apparently, these are in Vienna…
The Toilet-Bar Vienna is a small public bathroom located in an underpass near the National Opera. As you can see from the photo above, this is no ordinary bathroom. For the small price of just 75 cents, patrons of the urinal arts can relieve themselves in some of the most decorative urinals ever conceived by man.
Actually, the thought of pee’ing in these sort’ve freaks me out. Personally, I prefer the trough. Every man should agree that the day the trough started being fazed out of sports venues was a sad day, indeed.
How many times have you had to wait at the trough?
By the way, the article goes on to explain that …
Unfortunately, someone blabbed their mouth off to the opposite gender and local women’s rights groups eventually forced the proprietors to remove the sexist objects.
How is this sexist? Take a joke! Strange … yes. Sexist… I don’t know about that one.
