5 things I think I think

5. Miami’s defense is very very good. Florida State is better.
4. Tennessee is better than advertised. Cal is not.
3. Louisville is pretty good too, even without Bush.
2. Notre Dame isn’t that good.
1. Really glad that my Texas A&M Aggies don’t have to go to Florida State in two weeks.
And next year’s trip to play Miamia in the Orange Bowl will be interesting. But I’ll be there.

Great TV show

It still escapes me how Sportsnight didn’t do better during it’s two year run on network tv. Great stuff. Currently in reruns on Comedy Central. Check it out.

C’mon, admit it….

that was the best head butt you ever saw…..

I’m torn…

One the one hand I’m a huge Dallas Stars fan. I still consider them MY team, despite the fact that its been 7 years now since I was a season ticket holder, and since they won the Stanley Cup. Coincidence? I think not.

So it pains me to see them sign Matthew Barnaby, quite possibly the most annoying, irritating, and downright NUTS player in the NHL. And pretty much USELESS in the much improved New NHL ™ The guy can’t score, or skate, and he takes DUMB penalties all the time. He starts fights, then gets punched in the face, then laughs in the other guys face while he gets his butt handed to him. The man seriously has a screw loose.

After last years playoff debacle, hey to Grant and his Avalanche, maybe this guy is what the Stars need. But it really sucks to see your team acquire the guy you can’t stand the most.

World Cup Soccer

Now that the grand event is over for another four years, I must sheepishly admit I had a dismal performance in a World Cup pool. Somehow I decided to make my team picks without even THINKING about the first round groups and resulting brackets. A novice rookie mistake, which is sick considering that I PLAYED competitive soccer as kid all the way from youth travelling teams thru two years in college. Hell, I’ve actually BEEN to the World Cup for goodness sakes, and I certainly know the format. How the HELL could I not factor in the groupings? How could I manage to pick ALL 4 teams in one group, thus ensuring two of my teams would be eliminated quickly? How could I manage to not pick ANY teams from two other groups, considering at least two teams HAD to get thru. I finished second to last. It’s just plain embarrassing….

Rogers Clemens re-signs with Astros for $22 million

Barry — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 20:33:31 +0000

OK, so his actual pay will be pro-rated, but that’s an insane amount of money for a baseball player…let alone a pitcher….let alone a teasip! I almost never fall into the camp that says athletes or actors or CEOs or whoever get paid too much, but $22 million for one baseball season or basketball season is just totally nuts. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go help my son work on his split-finger fastball…..
