Football Week 2

For some reason I’m unable to get out enough football talk at work (aka around the water cooler), so here we go with week 2

10 - Start will college football again. Can Michigan or Notre Dame can actually win a game? Only when the play each other. Better luck next year for the Irish.

9 - I would be surprised if they showed the flight between the two mascots again on TV. Thankfully for YouTube, which nothing will ever die. That crazy duck beating the crap out of a cougar.

8 - There goes ISU winning record, their back to being average again. Oregon State was too much to handle, by the tune of 51 points, unlike central southern Oregon junior college or something like that. By the way that is Idaho not Iowa. The other ISU can actually win a game against a decent team, they beat Iowa this weekend. At least ISU (Idaho) record is not below average, which will most likely change after next weeks game.

7 - This season already has way too many scandal. First, the whole Vick and dog fighting before the season began. Then not even through the first week and the Patriots get caught cheating. Now, OJ getting arrested for stealing. Good thing it is not really a football scandal, instead it is a dumba** that use to play football scandal.

6 - The Patriots seem to have found a receiver that actually help Brady. Of course it is only week 2 and it is against a team with all new coaches. I’m sure there is a bit of a learning curve, but then again the team is still the chargers and last year they had a very good defense.

5 - Tough one for Seattle Sea Chicken fans. After from going to a be a blow out by the Cards, to the chickens start a come back and looking like they are going to win, and then blowing it at the end with a bad handoff. But after watching part of the 49ers and St Louis game yesterday, I would not worry too much. From what I seen, it will not take too much to win the division.

4 - I still cannot believe that Denver strategy for icing a kicker worked. If you did not see, in overtime the Raiders set up for a game winning field goal when Denver called a timeout right before the snap. Of course the play proceeded over the whistle and the kick went through the uprights. The Raiders of course celebrating the win, came to realize what happened. Then second attempt was missed, hitting the top of uprights. Resulting in Denver having the ball and being able to drive down the field for the win. Never mind the Raiders kicker is 1 for 5 this season, which would be a good average if I was talking baseball.

3 - Congratulations go out to a Football senior citizen Bret Favre who is the all-time leader in career wins as a starting QB. Wonder which record he will surpass next: Dan Marino's TD record (3 needed) or George Blanda's interception record (2 needed)? Since he won’t retire himself, the Packers need to do it after this season.

2 - Cowboys win, was there any doubt? Of course the answer is no. Prior to this game, Joey Porter of Miami proceeded to tell the press that Marion Barber was basically a weak player. Then Marion proceeded to run over Porter at one point in the game. Luckily I was not announcing the game, due to the fact I would have pointed this out on the broadcast and make sure everyone watching know that Porter is an a**.

1 - Now I know that my number 1 is almost automatic if Dallas wins, but the shoot out between the Bangles and Browns couldn’t have been beat. This was the best game this weekend, if you considering the defensive teams on both sides did not bother showing up. I still amazed the Browns won. Total of 11 passes for touchdown, and ranked 8 highest point total for a game.
