As the year is winding down I hope you and yours are having a very happy holidays. Just some random thoughts for the evening. It's been a while since I've been on so it's time to do some catching up.
First of all, my thoughts and prayers are with the people of Newtown, Connecticut as are the prayers of millions of Americans from coast to coast. Every time I hear of a shooting at a school or any place else I have to wonder to myself, what is wrong with people?
Johnny Football deserves the Heisman. It could not have gone to anyone else. Of the other candidates, Klein took himself out of the running with his stinker vs Baylor and if Suh couldn't win it three years ago then Te'o should not have won either.
Josh Hamilton has probably thrown his last bit of goodwill in Texas away by signing with the Rangers archrival. I cannot WAIT till the first week of the season when these teams clash at Rangers Ballpark. The boos will be deafening.
So Roger Goodell has been contemplating eliminating kickoffs. What is this sport going to be in five years, flag football?
The Texans get shellacked in Foxboro against the Patriots then the Patriots get beat by the Niners six days later. It goes to show there is no momentum whatsoever in the National Football League.
I like Texas Tech hiring Kliff Kingsbury. The guy seems to have a swagger about him and can win some games in Lubbock. He is very inexperienced though.
Last Saturday was a tremendous college sports day. Butler and Indiana was a classic basketball game that had an NCAA tournament feel. Arizona and Nevada in the New Mexico Bowl was tremendous and Arizona also beat Florida in a great basketball game.
Dallas may have saved their season by beating the Steelers and has put Pittsburgh in peril. As for Dallas, they have to beat New Orleans and then have to beat Washington. New Orleans they should win, Washington on the other hand...
Final thought: Nebraska is not all that good but should play with a chip on its shoulder in the bowl game. Teams always want to play better after getting blown out.
Until next time....
