Football!! Football!! Football!!! Lets talk a little football today. First, I would like to give a shout out to Coach Randy Shannon and my Hurricanes for big win this past Monday. What a game!! Looks like a promising season with a lot of young and explosive talent. Still think we are about a year away from title contention. Kudos to UM and FSU for scheduling this game right off the bat and continuing a long rivalry no matter what the BCS costs (More on this later).

Second, the NFL kicked off last night and we were blessed with two good teams and a very good game. Some good games over the weekend with a couple of big inter-division battles right out of the gate. Redskins/Giants and Bears/Packers look to be the headline games. My Chiefs (Chefs) are playing Baltimore and with Cassel being out and the worst defense in the NFL, Well.... I don't like our chances. Sorry to see TP go out for the Steelers. What a freak of a football player this guy is. Always in the right place at the right time and is never out of position. Great hands and an even better tackler.

Third, go ahead and hand the BCS National Championship trophy to.... DRUM ROLE PLEASE!!!!..... The Florida Gators. Listen, I have no problem with a power house team opening with a chump team like Charleston Southern. Most big time programs do it and it is mostly done to get the kinks out and start the season off with a smooth victory. But two games in a row, I don't get it. The Gators this week will face the mighty Trojans of USC. Oops, I meant the mighty Trojans of Troy. That's right, TROY!!!! The Gators were favored in last weeks game by 75 pts and this week they are favored by 34.5 pts. Two games and favored by a combined 100+ points. I bet if you combined most of all the other teams spreads per game, for their entire schedule, you would not get 100 pts. Not to mention the rest of their schedule is not to difficult. I know conference games are pre-scheduled and they have no choice in the matter. I only see UF having a couple of hurdles this season. They have LSU, FSU and maybe Georgia. The rest of the games, FIU, Kentucky, Ark, Vandy, Miss St, SC, Troy, and CSU should be cake walks if they come to play. Tenn is a interesting game though. They have talent and a new coach who is causing quite a stir this season. But after all Kiffin has done and said, I won't be surprised if Myers puts up a 100 on him.
ND faces Michigan which should be a very good game. Hope ND crushes them cuz I don't like Coach Richy "Rich" Rodriguez to much. That's what you get for bailing on your already 5 star program. THEE Ohio St. University takes on the real mighty Trojans (USC). Hope USC busts their donkey cuz I can't stand OSU. It's a family thing. Will tell you at Flip Cup 2009.

Finally, God bless all those who perished during 9/11. The minute we forget and the minute we become complacent is when the bad stuff happens!!

Until next time,

Take one more club!!!!!
