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!)

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.
