To all you out there who can manage your time so you can work, be a parent, pay bills, cook, clean AND get on here and post a blog every day, I commend you! I’m struggling mightily, as is my bro. Between the Olympics, my 4 year old starting preschool, my 10 year old starting the 5th grade and getting over a summer cold, I’ve found NO time to post. I’m not looking for sympathy. I’m genuinely amazed at those of you who handle it all.
So I won’t rehash the past couple of weeks. Most of the 1st week of CFB games are completed and nothing has really surprised me…except Miss St. I’ve never bought into Clemson, Pitt or VaTech. But, I fully expected MSU to take care of LaTech. I like Croom. It’s got nothing to do with his race. So much of the media is focused on a black man coaching major college football in Mississippi that they ignore the fact that he’s a really good coach. He does it the right way by stressing fundamentals and discipline. He’s good for the SEC for far more than being black. People tend to minimize him by reducing him to just a black head coach.
My Dawgs had a solid, if unspectacular day against GaSouthern. I know we let up and play vanilla against the cupcakes, but i sort of miss the Zeier years when we would drop 72 on Cal State Fullerton or somebody. We ARE a much better program now that we were then. I just like imposing our offensive might every now and then. USC, Florida, Oklahoma, LSU, Ohio St., etc. all did what they were supposed to do. I wonder just how injured Beanie Wells is. Jeff Owens going down for UGA is really tough. I guess we’ll see how mighty we are. Championship teams find a way to get past adversity. I still believe Georgia is the best team in the country. Only time will tell.
I hate to sound like a sore loser, but could baseball hurry up and be done? My Yankees are through and I’m tired of watching them lose. Hats off to the Rays! Lose 3 key players and they keep winning. I am so impressed with them. I don’t think they’ll beat the Angels in a 7 game series, but I really think they would handle whoever comes out of the NL. The Cubs don’t have a shot.
I’m happy to see the Falcons used their brains and kept Shockley as their 3rd QB. Now lets see if he can stay healthy long enough to progress as an NFL QB. I know he’ll get virtually no PT. He’ll still get much needed practice reps throughout the year that he’s missed out on for over a year. Matt Ryan has looked good so far. Please don’t think I care about the Falcons. I find it necessary to stay informed about them so I can have semi-intelligent conversations with all the Atlanta faithful I work with.
One more thing…Thank God for espn360! I have Directv and I live in Georgia, so the GA-GSU game was blacked out for me on PPV. My IP subscribes to 360 and the game was on Gameplan, so I was able to watch it. The feed had about a 4 minute delay, but that’s ok. At least I didn’t have to listen to it on staticky radio. Where I live, I can’t get a decent radio signal. Anyway, next week I can watch on my 60 inch Sony. Much nicer than a 19 inch computer monitor.
