No Part 2

Sorry, there won't be a part 2 to the game because the stupid computer won't load any long video's. Dang. CURSE YOU COMPUTER!!!

UNC game- Part 1 (Warmups)

They kept us entertained before the game :)

We had our pictures taken out on the court.

Six championship banners. I bet your team doesn't have that.

A Trip to Chapel Hill

I got to go down to Chapel Hill North Carolina (UNC BABY!!) and go to a UNC basketball game vs. Rutgers. It was really fun!!! I got an Ed Davis jersey, a mini UNC basketball for Psycho B and the Tar-Heels won a really good game 81-65. I'll post more photos and some videos tomorrow.

P.S. The photos from the game are not very good quality (neither are the videos) but they are Ok, so I apologize in advance.

DANG YOU STUPID RAIN!!!!

As much as I hate snow, I've always wanted a white Christmas. We got over two feet of snow a few days ago and I started thinking that I would finally have one. Never mind. Its going to rain tomorrow so it will probably be a slushy, wet Christmas. I hate rain.

Already waiting for April.

Why am I so excited for April. Because its the start of the new baseball season and as a Mariner fan I have to be excited. The M's have been really busy this off-season so far, signing star free-agent 3rd baseman Chone Figgins, as well as acquiring former All Star's Milton Bradley and Cliff Lee. They are also very interested in one more player... free-agent OF Jason Bay, who lives near Seattle and played for Gonzaga (Spokane WA). I AM SO EXCITED!!!

YES!!!

I just clinched victory in my fantasy football league... and had the best week I have ever had. I had Brandon Marshall, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson, Andre Johnson, Drew Brees, the Texans' defense, Rob Bironas...all of who were in the top 5 for points by position. I AM SOOO HAPPY!!!!!

21!?

Twenty-one catches. How the heck did Brandon Marshall get twenty-one catches in ONE game and still LOSE! Thats three games of output. More like four games. Also, are there gonna be two 16-0 teams this year. It really looks like it, and how did Andre Johnson get 193 rec yards in the first half against the Seahawks. By the way, Eagles WR DeSean Jackson has 8 plays of 50 yards or more this year... thats an NFL record.

I still can't believe the 21 catches. WOW!

Psycho B's Halloween Costume... Sorry I'm late.

Whoops! In October I promised to post a picture of Psycho B's LAME Halloween costume. He liked it at least and thats all that matters... and he's only three years old but LOL!!! I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!!! also, heres my new hat!

BTW... THE SEAHAWKS WON!!!!!!!!!

SMILE EVERYONE!!!!

DUKE LOST BABY!!! (in my best dickie V voice) Doesn't that make 99% of America happy!? Sure makes me happy. Plus the Heels beat MSU in the national championship rematch. That makes two great days in a row!!!

Congrats to you also Uncle Dumb Bald Loser because the Zags are rollin' right now... they are now in the top 25.

Indy ROCKS

Can ANYONE beat the Colts?!?!?! I wasn't paying alot of attention to football yesterday, but when I first checked the scores, the Texans were up 17-0 on the Colts and had the ball. When I finally checked again, the Colts had a 28-20 lead and never looked back. They are now 11-0!! This is a team that lost a Hall of Fame coach and replaced him with a coach (Jim Caldwell) with no head coaching experience. To make it worse, star QB Peyton Manning openly stated during the off-season that he was not pleased with how Caldwell and Co. were doing things, adding that he had no idea what was going on. But they quickly fixed it and are now five games away from an undefeated season, and its not like their schedule has been easy. They've squeaked out close wins against the Patriots, Ravens, Texans (twice), they've ripped the Cardinals and have a tough one next week against the rejuvenated Tennessee Titans.

Plus UNC Coach Roy Williams got his 600th win last night but thats kinda off subject.

Talk about sucking it up...

I really don't pay much attention to the NBA, I really only pay attention to all the UNC Alumni. But I was looking at the standings yesterday and at the very bottom was the New Jersey Nets. What was so terribly bad about them? Uhhhhhhhhhh... lets just say they are 0-14. They probably won't go 0-82 but I can imagine them setting the record for the most losses... how bad are they? In a game against the New York Knicks, who are probably the second worst team (and LeBron won't be coming next year) beat them. Not only that, but Knicks guard Nate Robinson purposefully made a 3 pointer... in the wrong basket. That gave the Nets 3 points and they still lost against a team that doesn't even put forth effort. Oh yah, 3 of their next 4 games are against winning teams... don't be surprised if they have not won a game come December.

My Prediction...

If you read my comment box a couple of posts ago you probably saw that I predicted that UNC would beat OSU 74-71 in a sloppy game. Well, UNC won 77-74 (IM SO AWESOME) and WOW it was really sloppy at some points. There were 35 total turnovers (most of which were just stupid passes) including 10 from one OSU player alone. There were alot of dropped passes and rebounds and both team struggled on the free throw line.

Todays prediction - UNC beats Syracuse 91-84 in a really fast paced game.

#1 Kansas and #2 Michigan State avoid upsets.

Last, night, I got to watch the college basketball game between #2 Michigan State and unranked Gonzaga. The Zags are my second favorite team because my mom's side of the family cheers for them (which you probably realized if you read my uncles comments on my mom's blog and mine.) The Spartans were heavy favorites to win (they were at home) but the Zags dominated early, taking a five point half-time lead, and then extending it to ten points in the second half. But Michigan State stormed back, winning a close game, 75-71. (sorry uncle W) I missed the game between #1 Kansas and another unranked team, Memphis. That also turned out to be a great game, but no upset. Kansas won 57-55.

If you missed these, and really wan't to see a good game, check out #6 UNC (GO HEELS!!!) as they visit #15 Ohio State tomorrow at 9:00 p.m. ET.

If you wan't to watch a really good football game this weekend, try the 1-8 Cleveland Browns and the 1-8 Detroit Lions... OK, just kidding. How about two under-achieving 5-4 teams, the Atlanta Falcons at the New York Giants.

Back from retreat.

I got back last night from a weekend retreat at Camp Maria (in southern MD). It was really fun, but I'm REALLY tired because I shared a room with the two loudest people on earth. That's enough for now. YAWN

NFL Midseason Awards

I'm REALLY bored so I'll give out some awards.

MVP - QB Peyton Manning (Colts) - 221/313 (70.6%) 2545 yrds 16TD 5 INT 105.2 rating

He and Drew Brees have similar numbers and their teams are both 8-0, but Peyton Manning wins because his team

runs the ball very poorly, so he had been

carrying Indianapolis on his shoulders. He has also turned the ball over way less than Brees.

Runner Ups - QB Drew Brees (Saints)

RB Adrian Peterson (Vikings)

Off Player of the Year - RB Chris Johnson (Titans) - 1121 total yrds 7 TD

Not in the MVP race because his team is 2-6, but he leads the NFL in yards from scrimmage and has an insane 6.7 yards per carry.

Runner Ups - RB Adrian Peterson (Vikings)

RB Ray Rice (Ravens)

Def Player of the Year - S Darren Sharper (Saints) - 35 tkls 7 Int 3 def TD

Sorry to Jared Allen, Dwight Freeney, and Elvis Dumervil but I just can't get over the 7 interceptions and 3 defensive TD's. It's been awhile since someone has taken three interceptions to the house. Also, Sharper is on pace for an NFL record 14 interceptions and has led a once pathetic Saints defense to be one of the NFL's best.

Runner Ups - DE Jared Allen (Vikings)

DE Dwight Freeney (Colts)

Rookie of the Year - WR Percy Harvin (Vikings) - 408 scrimmage yards, 3 REC TD, 2 KR TD

He's been a huge playmaker for the Vikings, with four big kick returns (2 of them are TD's) and, combined with speedy Bernard Berrian, he has helped stretch the field for other Viking stars, like Adrian Peterson.

Runner Ups - CB Jarius Byrd (Bills)

LB Aaron Curry (Seahawks)

Offensive ROY - WR Hakeem Nicks (Giants) - 416 scrimmage yards, 4 Rec TD

The big question for the Giants this year, Which receiver is going to step up and become Eli Manning's go to receiver? Well, that has been Steve Smith, but Nicks has also shined, becoming a big play machine in his first season. His numbers are even better knowing that he missed two games with an ankle injury, and backed up Mario Manningham for most of the year.

Runner Ups - RB LeSean McCoy (Eagles)

WR Jeremy Maclin (Eagles)

Defensive ROY - CB Jarius Byrd (Bills) - 32 tkls 7 Int

A rookie is tied with Darren Sharper for the NFL lead in interceptions. Also, Byrd was not the first Bills defender chosen in the draft. He was a second round pick, and WOW he has been great!

Runner Ups - LB Aaron Curry (Seahawks)

DE Brian Orakpo (Redskins)

Comeback Player of the Year - Chad Ocho Cinco (Bengals) - 44 rec 639 yrds, 5TD

Following up a miserable year last year, Ocho's now working hard and its paying dividends. He's also helped the surprising Bengals to a 6-2 record. Brady didn't win this award because its not hard to put up huge numbers with superstar receivers.

Runner Ups - QB Tom Brady (Patriots)

QB Matt Hasselbeck (Seahawks)

Breakout Player of the Year - WR Miles Austin (Cowboys) - 27 rec 612 yrds 7TD

He had less than 400 yrds in his first three years... He has 500 in the last four games. He made headlines with a HUGE breakout performance in the Cowboys OT victoy against the Cheifs, with 10 rec, 250 yrds and 2 TDs. Instead of disappearing again, he followed it up with 171 more yards and 2 TDs. Expect more in the final half of the season.

Runner Ups - RB Cedric Benson (Bengals)

TE Vernon Davis (49ers)

Defending a National Title

UNC began the defense of their national title last night, with a relatively easy victory over the Isiah Thomas coached FIU Panthers, taking a 16 point lead at the half and cruising to an 88-72 victory. The big number was rebounding, they out rebounded the undersized Panthers 42-21, led by All-American preseason pick Ed Davis's 11 rebounds. Deon Thompson led in scoring with 20 points and 10 rebounds, Davis had 13, with Ty Zeller and Marcus Ginyard scoring 12 each. Marvin Roberts led FIU with 18 points.

LETS GO HEELS!!!

My Uncle is a bald whiner.

That's all I have to say to you fat man, and IN YOUR FACE TO ALL THE STUPID PEOPLE THIS WEEK THAT SAID THE SEAHAWKS WOULD LOSE TO THE MOTOR CITY KITTYS!!! YOU ARE ALL JUST JEALOUS REDSKIN/Buccaneer/Rams/Lions FANS WITH NO LIVES AT ALL!!!

I would have been posting regularly but my mom has been using the computer that I use to blog because she is OBSESSED with facebook. Do me a favor Uncle Gonzaga loser fan and force my mom to let me have a facebook page.

Oh, ya, the college basketball season is starting tonight... UNC vs. STTS (some.team.that.stinks) LETS GO HEELS!!!!

27

I hate the Yankees. Nuff said. Hopefully the Mariners can win next year. For now... GO SEAHAWKS!!! (if they lose to the Lions that would be embarrassing)

HAHA!! AND MY FRIENDS CALL ME STUPID!!

One of my friends is always talking trash to me over the email, but whenever I see him (lets just call him JOB) face to face, he never dares to say anything. I mean, what a coward. He won't talk trash to my face because I'm only like five inches taller and thirty or forty pounds heavier than him. I'm always threatening to get rid of him, though I never quite feel like ending his pathetic life. But when he insulted my blog today, he secured his death. So watch out JOB, I'm COMING!!!! oh ya, and how can you insult my blog when its just as good as your website which is at http://legos.pobspace.com/

FYI - This is only a joke (the killing part is at least... but maybe I'll just seriously hurt him :)

I mean... seriously, who would mess with someone like this?!

HAHA!! AND MY FRIENDS CALL ME STUPID!!

The Redskins are a really stupid franchise.

The Redskins are my local team, though I chose to stick with my uncle and cheer for the Seahawks. When the Seahawks released their first quarterback and Matt Hasselbeck's quarterback coach, I hoped that someone would offer him a head coaching job. So I was really excited for him when the Redskins hired him.

The Redskins started the '08 season on fire, getting Zorn alot of postitive media attention. But they stumbled to a 8-8 finish and missed the playoffs, putting Zorn's job at risk. Now the Redskins are 2-5 this year, and all the blame is being placed on Zorn. The Redskins are trying to humiliate him enough to quit his job by stripping him of his play calling duties. But its not his fault. The Redskins are just a terrible team. Their quarterback is a bust, Clinton Portis is getting old, quick, their top receiver (Santana Moss) is good but is too inconsistent, their offensive line stinks, pro-bowl tight-end Chris Cooley is out for the year and their defense is mediocre, at best.

How the media and the team are treating Zorn is very unfair, but if he is smart (and he is) he will not quit, but instead force the Skins to fire him. If he quits, they won't owe him any money. On the other hand, if he forces them to fire him, they'll need to pony up 9 million dollars.

So maybe the Redskins should pay attention to what they should be... the rest of the season and next years draft.

GO HAWKS!

Mastermind

On Sunday, one of my dad's friends came over and my dad had to leave to pick up my mom from the Metro, so I had to find a way to entertain his friend... and he suggested a board game. I usually only play a board game about ten times a year (probably less) because I am not very good at them, but I agreed. So he looked through my closet and took out Mastermind, which we have had for like three or four years and had never played. I wasn't very good at it but it was pretty fun... we played it for about forty-five minutes.

Also, my mom goes grocery shopping once a week, and when she went on Saturday, there was no ICE-CREAM. LIFE IS POINTLESS WITHOUT ICE-CREAM!!

Its been a very long time... even for me.

Wow. I havent blogged in like two weeks! It wasn't total laziness though. My computer wouldn't let me log into my account and whenever I remembered that I wanted to write a post, someone else was on the other computer (which I am on now). Anyway, I had some studying to do this week and I went to my friends house to watch Get Smart (which was hilarious), I FINALLY QUIT piano, I had Taekwondo and I have been really tired lately. All that added up to me not blogging. So hopefully I'll be able to post more often.

It has been getting pretty cold lately (in my opinion). At least its been cold enough to make me wear socks in the house (I hate wearing socks).

Well see ya... and I will be posting tomorrow!

The post is not about sports...

... it's about nothing. It's just really random. It was another long week. I had tae kwon do, school, a lot of friends came over, I had youth group and did a bunch of random things. Thats about it. I really do have to find more things to post about.

This week, my brother's Halloween costume came. (I'm not being anything). He yelled at me to come see it, and I had to try really hard to stop myself from laughing. It's really dumb looking... don't tell him I said that though. The only thing that matters is that he likes it. He's only three years old anyways. I'll post some pictures on Halloween in a couple weeks.

I can't go through a post without saying something about sports. The Seahawks won 41-0, so I'd be really happy if the Twins hadn't been swept by the stupid Yankees. So now its GP PHILS!!

Around the NFL

I meant to write yesterday, but I forgot

Yesterday, a couple receivers joined new teams. Rookie WR Michael Crabtree ended his 71 day holdout and signed a six year, 32 million dollar deal,with the San Francisco 49er yesterday. Also, talented but troubled Cleveland Browns WR, Braylon Edwards, was traded to the New York Jets for two players and two more draft picks. This is a high risk trade for the Jets, as Edwards has only had one good season, back in '07 when he was second in the NFL with 16 TD catches. He struggles holding onto easy catches... he's led the NFL the last two seasons in dropped passes, but he's also the big play threat the Jets need.

Michael Crabtree is just a big idiot. Enough said. If you don't know why, just look up why he was holding out. He won't play this week as the 49ers host the Falcons.

Now I got to think of other stuff to talk about other than sports. (Yes, Braylon Edwards did make that catch)

End of the regular season.

The one problem I have with baseball is... the 162 regular season games. WAY to long. The regular season ended yesterday (My favorite team, the Mariners aren't in the playoffs, but they did have a good season!) and my second favorite team, the Minnesota Twins, finished in a tie for their division and final playoff spot with the Detroit Tigers. They will play in Minnesota tomorrow at 5:07 P.M. ET.

Two legends also may have played their last games yesterday, super slugger Ken Griffey Jr. and legendary pitcher Randy Johnson, both are former and/or present Seattle Mariners. Randy Johnson is more likely to retire than Griffey... in fact, I think Griffey will stay one more year with Seattle, and if Seattle can add another bat, they could be in the playoffs next year.

But for now, GO TWINS!!!

P.S. Don't even talk to me about the Seahawks. Hopefully next week.

Really, really good. Seriously.

Have you ever had Nutella? It's some kind of chocolate hazelnut spread that you can put on graham crackers or sandwiches and stuff like that. Well, I don't really like it but a couple weeks ago someone gave me the idea to freeze it spread on graham crackers. IT IS AWESOME!!! I don't have any idea why I like it frozen but not room temperature, but I don't care. It's REALLY GOOD. Also, frozen cookie dough is even better than unfrozen cookie dough (which is still good). I'm such a healthy eater!

NFL week 3

I would like to sit here and complain about the Seahawks falling to 1-2, but whats there to complain about. We were missing our starting quarterback, two starting offensive linemen, two starting linebackers, and our top three cornerbacks. The Bears on the other hand only had one key injury, Pro Bowl linebacker Brian Urlacher. But we hung in there to the end, losing 19-25. Our running game was good, our back up QB played pretty well, and our defense played very good for missing 4 starters.

Yesterday morning, I told one of my friends (a redskins fan) that the Lions would beat the Redskins for their first win in since December of 07. Well, I was right. The Lions won 19-14 at home for rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford, and many other Lion players, first career wins. Congrats to the Lions.

Now the Seahawks should be getting 6 starters back this week when they play the Colts. That should be good news but its not. repeat. We are playing the Colts in what might be a must win game for us. I guess we are more desperate for a win since we are one game behind the 49ers in our division and the Colts are 3-0 and everyone else in their division is struggling. Stupid Seachickens!!! CAN'T YOU STAY HEALTHY.

Now i'm listening to Psycho B playing football AND being the commentators. He's saying something about TJ Houshmanzadeh scoring a touchdown... Housh has no TD's this year but I won't tell Psycho B that. He'll just scream at me anyways.

The Woods.

On Sunday, I went to my friends new house and we spent our day exploring the woods behind their house. We had a lot of fun, and their parents served Papa John's pizza. We then went to their youth group and had more pizza from Papa John's. The garlic sauce is awesome. Other than that, Sunday was pretty dumb (Hint: Seahawks). I better go now, my sisters are watching Spongebob... I know, I have no life. (Patrick is funny though!)

NFL top surprises and worst disappointments. (WK2)

Well the title says what this post is about so here.

P.s - I didn't just pick some of the seahawk players only because they are for the seahawks.

Surprises - QB Trent Edwards (Buffalo Bills) 442 pass yards, 4TD, 1Int, 104.9 QB rating

HB Mike Bell (New Orleans Saints) 229 total yards, 1 TD.

WR Mario Manningham (New York Giants) 13 rec, 208 yards, 2 TD.

WR Vincent Jackson (San Diego Chargers) 11 rec, 197 yards, 2 TD

TE Brent Celek (Philadelphia Eagles) 14 rec, 141 yards, 1 TD

OL Seattle Seahawks 116.5 rush yards per game, 1 sack given up (Star LT Walter Jones has missed the first two games so it hasn't even reached its peak.)

DE Antwan Odom (Cincinnati Bengals) 10 tkls, 7 scks (almost twice as many as anyone else)

DE Lawrence Jackson (Seattle Seahawks) 6 tkls, 3 scks, 1 forced fumble

DT None qualified

LB Thomas Davis (Carolina Panthers) Leads NFL with 28 tkls.

LB Elvis Dumervil (Denver Broncos) 9 tkls, 4 scks, 1 forced fumble

CB Charles Woodson (Green Bay Packers) 12 tkls, 2 int, 1 TD

S Michael Huff (Oakland Raiders) 3 Tkls, 3 Int

Been a while

Sorry its been awhile. I haven't had enough time to get on my blog lately. I went over to my friends new house yesterday after church, and we got to explore the woods in their back yard. It was really cool. Also, the Seahawks lost yesterday so I don't feel like talking about sports right now. Hopefully I'll be able to post more often this week.

Psycho B is awesome.

Ok,

I lived 11 years without a brother, and that was really boring at times. Now, I have a three year old bro who is a totally awesome kid. He'll play football, basketball, or baseball. He's also really good (for his age) at video games and loves to play with swords, guns, and other weapons.

A couple of days ago, Psycho B was playing Wii baseball with me. In the first game I struck the poor kid out nearly every time, and it seemed like he couldn't get me out. So when he started screaming and hitting me with the Wii mote, I decided I had better let him win.

So for the next game, I started giving him easy pitches to hit and he made the most of them. On the first pitch I threw, he hit the ball OUT OF THE PARK. Not just over the fence... OUT OF THE STADIUM. I get one of those only once every twenty games! After I struck out (purposefully) to end the game, he started dancing and singing "We are the Champions" (Queen). Except he changed the lyrics 'Champions' into his name and 'Losers' into mine. Thanks alot Psycho B.

I have no idea what to say.

What's up? There hasn't been much to say lately, so I'm stuck with randomness. Baseball season is finally nearing the end... and sadly my two teams (Mariners, Cubs) are not going to the playoffs this year. Surviving school so far. Ice cream is even better when you put Rita's Ice on it. I completely destroyed my friend in football yesterday, but I landed weird on my knee and it really hurts so I'm limping around like a big baby. I have no idea what I'm going to be for Halloween this year. Kanye West is a complete jerk.

Sorry for wasting your time.

Tree Frog

I love frogs and I found this on gadgets and it wouldn't let me put it on the sidebar so I I had to post it.

Seahawks are back, Lions are still horrible, Drew Brees and Adrian Peterson have big games.

Last season, the Seahawks streak of 4 straight division titles was ended due to a rash of injurys (including 10 injured receivers, their starting Quarterback, and the entire starting offensive line). This year, they are trying to take back the division, and week one was a big help.

Matt Hasselbeck returned to pro-bowl form, and Julius Jones ran for over 100 yards as the Seahawks dominated the St.Louis Rams, 28-0. Meanwhile, the defending NFC West champs, the Arizona Cardinals, lost to the San-Fransisco 49ers. Sure, the Rams could compete with the Lions for the worst team in the NFL, but the Seahawks were missing two of their starting offensive line, and big play receiver Deion Branch.

Speaking of the Lions...

The Lions losing streak continued, reaching

18 games, while losing to the New Orleans Saints, 45-27. Rookie QB Matthew Stafford, who the Lions are relying on to turn them into a playoff contender, threw zero touchdowns and three interceptions as the Saints QB Drew Brees threw 6 TD passes in just over 3 quarters.

While Drew Brees had a super performance, the NFL might have a hard time choosing NFC player of the week, because superstar

Vikings running back, Adrian

Peterson, led his team to a 31-20 victory with his 198 total yards and TD's, including a 64 yard run to seal the victory.

Oh yah, Eagles QB Donavan McNabb broke his rib and may miss next week's showdown vs. the Saints. Also, Bears QB Jay Cutler and Panthers QB Jake Delhomme played horribly last night, each throwing 4 interceptions in their teams losses.

Hamster

I want to eat this thing.

HEELS WIN!!

I'm not that into UNC football, usually. I'm more into their basketball team (WHICH RULES!!). In football, they are ranked in the top 25, two weeks into the season. When I checked the box score this afternoon, they were down 10-0 in the fourth quarter to unranked Uconn. To make it more miserable, we averaged less than 1 yard per rush... which is horrid. On their first possession of the 4th quarter, they drove down to the Huskies 4 yard line, came up short, and settled for a field goal. Thankfully, their defense came up big and forced them to punt. UNC finally got the running game going and we tied the game at 10 with a 2 yard TD pass with 2:36 remaining. Uconn started on their own 20 and we forced an incomplete pass and then sacked the QB for a 13 yard loss. Finally, on third and 23, at their Uconn'sown 7, Uconn got called for holding in their own, which resulted in a safety, giving the Tar-Heels a 12-10 win.

GO HEELS!!

My LONG week

YES!!! Ive survived the first week of school... only 35 more to go! Its been an Ok week, I got to see alot of my friends, I went to my church's Labor Day festival, my email crashed, my shoes are looking worse than ever, my favorite college football player (Sam Bradford) got hurt, Michael Jordan's getting inducted into the HOF today, NFL's season just started, I did't sleep well and I've been really hungry lately AND I got a blog. Kind of random stuff, and I hope you can tell the good from the bad... and oh yah... the good thing about being homeschooled is that I'm usually done with school before noon... the only bad thing is that I don't see my friends as often. But I still see them alot.

RANDOM!!

oh yah, I also bought "Fat" by Weird Al... I don't know why.

Madden Curse

OK. I don't believe in curses or any of that junk, but the Madden "Curse" is getting on my nerves.

If you didn't hear, Steelers Pro Bowl safety, Troy Polamalu, hurt his knee last night in the Steelers 13-10 OT win, and he will be out for 3-6 weeks. He did play very well before he got hurt in the second quarter,racking up 6 tackles and a spectacular one handed interception at the Steelers 5,which he returned for 16 yards. Here's a list of the other Madden cover athletes that have been "cursed"

2002 - Daunte Culpepper. Missed five games and played poorly.

2003 - Mashall Faulk. Missed six games, never ran for 1000 yards again.

2004 - Michael Vick. Broke leg, missed 11 games, went to jail 2 years later.

2005 - Ray Lewis. Missed only one game, but did not play at his usual high level.

2006 - Donavan McNabb. Missed last seven games of the season.

2007 - Shaun Alexander. Broke foot and missed six games. Never ran for 1000 yards again.

2008 - Vince Young. Missed one game, but played poorly and lost his job the next season.

2009 - Brett Favre. Did not miss a game, but played very poorly down the stretch, and is no longer in the Packer uniform.

2010 - Troy Polamalu/Larry Fitzgerald. Polamalu is out for 3-6 weeks and Fitzgerald has yet to play. The Cardinals play Sunday at home against the 49ers.

NFL Kickoff

YES!! The NFL's new season gets underway tonight when the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Tennessee Titans. Although its boring to me, you may like it, as it should be a defensively dominated game. I don't care who wins, because the only team I care about is the Seahawks. The other teams can just tank. The Seahawks are going undefeated and winning the SUPERBOWL BABY!! I hope...

GO HAWKS!!!

HI!!! They call me JP and this is my blog. I will blog about a bunch of random stuff (not just sports) and I hope you like my blog... if you don't, then just go away :). Uhhh... see ya.
