Tidbits From the "S-Days" That Were

There’s no better time of year than the "S-Days" in the fall…And while the college pigskins were able to see the light of day first over Labor Day weekend, the NFL flying pigskins followed suit yesterday! With a plethora of games to choose from to watch, how does one do so? It’s very easy, all you do is slip into that strip club mentality that so many of us have the ability to make like Pacman Jones, sitting back relaxing in the chair, with clicker in one hand & an ice cold beverage in the other and enjoy the view while the CSI Miami theme song plays in the background.
Speaking of that, when did that become "the official 2007 football anthem". You’re already for some football and all of a sudden an episode of CSI: Miami breaks out! What’s up with that? From the Rutgers/Navy on Friday, to the Thursday Saints/Colts game, and all the games in between…The list goes on and on! Honestly I was looking for Calley Ducane to appear somewhere…Examining the crime scene while Alex examined the victims. Well, a good place to start the examination would have definitely been in Happy Valley Saturday night…To see what kind of corpse they would’ve found there. Or to see if Notre Dame’s offense at some point entered the stadium. I’ll be honest, couldn’t prove it by me…Although they were wearing white too, so everything seemed to blend in. There’s no need to fire up FireCharlieWeis.com anytime soon…However, the offensive line coach which Notre Dame employs may want to think about putting his house of for sale! The way the market is, it’s going to be a while before it sells…You on the other hand…Well, that might be a different story!
Perhaps him and Lloyd Carr can compare notes on realtors…Because they don’t seem to be taking the best of notes on anything else this season. Yes folks, we’re in the midst of seeing history…At no time has Notre Dame and Michigan been this pathetic to begin a season. Doing their damndest to impersonate the local YMCA league…I wonder what Tyrone Willingham is thinking right about now? Probably, thanks for the check…Nice doing business with you all! This past weekend all he did was snap the nation’s longest winning streak…And, oh yeah, the Huskies are also 2-0. Taking over Cinderella’s glass slipper! So how is it that T-Will can turn around a Husky program who rivaled a Powderpuff team and turn them into an offensive juggernaut and for the most part looks like a team to be reckoned with all season instead of being wrecked? Makes you wonder about some things, doesn’t it? Hmm…Interesting to say the least!
Although the good news on Saturday is, some sorry ass team will post it’s first victory of the season on Saturday playing in the Toilet Bowl. From the sounds of it, it looks like Mike Hart is very much indeed looking forward to adding the Gold Plated Plunger to the trophy case. "We're going to win next week," Hart said. "There's no question in my mind. I guarantee we will win next week. I'm going to get this team ready. Guaranteed." Oh, you’re going to get the team ready…Not Lloyd Carr? Look, why don’t you shut your cake hole…You just got your ass embarrassed twice at home! Talk is cheap anyway, but this is like my nine year old nephew saying he can out bench me with 185 on the bar. Down right comical! So getting your team ready is having you make like Joe Willy, right? You want to make out with Suzy Kolber while you’re at it? And Rex Grossman is going to win a Super Bowl, right Mike?
A guarantee in a game featuring two winless and unranked teams…How awesome is that! By chance are you related to Michael Vick in anyway? The only good news for ABC is that, by rule, one team technically does have to win the game…Will Irish eyes be smiling? I’m going out on a limb here a saying no…Backing up Hart’s boneheadism. And the worst part of it, I’m a sad ND fan. That’s okay, win or loose we still booze! So on Saturday while I may not be smiling, I know of at least somebody that will be…Tony Romo.
I know it’s not just me who has noticed this, but why is he always smiling? I mean, well, except for that gaffe in Seattle. Okay so scoring with Carrie Underwood is always worth smiling about, but why is it that in every interview he’s always smiling like the Cheshire Cat? No other cat does this Tony, so what’s up? Do you somehow have mental pictures in your head of something, because I fail to see why a big smiley face is needed talking to Andrea Kramer about what your offseason workout program was like? Or unless Carrie was part of the program and you’re having flashbacks…And that may be the case? What, you want to do some kind of Crest Teeth Whiten spots in the near future? While that may be putting the cart before the horse, we all know you have a Colgate smile, so you can spot showing it to us anytime now!
