Just wait until next year

*SIGH* how bout those cubbies? Someone special to me always reminds me cubs stands for Completely Useless By September and boy was I so happy I was going to get to tell him that we were playing in October and we were on our way to a championship that it only was going to take us 100 years to get....and then what do we do....we get SWEPT by the damn Dodgers. Ugh...so now what do I do? I don't like either of the NL contenders and I am so not a fan of the DH....so do I compromise my contempt for the DH and cheer for the Rays simply because they are the new kid on the block? I guess I will just have to set aside my disdain for the DH for now and be a Rays fan and being the true Cubs fan I am say yet again....just wait 'til next year....next year is OUR year.

Damn goat!

Colt 45...OU 35

So...how do you get a sooner graduate off your porch? You pay him for the pizza!
I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed sitting around Saturday surrounded by family watching my horns beat the overrated sooners. I know we are rivals with Texas A&M but that game doesn't mean near as much as beating the sooners. So...how many of you know what the term sooners is all about?? Well here is just a bit of history for ya - back when the Texas/OU rivalry started Oklahoma wasn't a state yet - just a territory. When it was about to become a state people camped out along the red river along the border and at a certain time they were going to be released to stake claim on their piece of land. Well the "sooners" were those that snuck across early and staked out claims unlawfully. Guess that goes to show that when Barry Switzer was the coach he was just holding up the "sooner" traditions. Congrats to Colt and the boys - it makes me nervous being ranked #1 this early in the season and having people gunning for us. Just one game at a time and you know that Saturday I will have my happy little behind planted in front of a TV somewhere watching my horns take on the tigers who are licking their wounds. I always thought Chase was overrated as a QB too but that's just my humble opinion.

How bout them Cowboys!!!! Talk about the perfect ending to the weekend...the cowboys lose and lose key players in the process. Okay, I will try really hard not to gloat about Tony "oh no" Romo breaking a finger during the futile drive in OT and being out 4 weeks. Maybe Jessica can kiss the booboo. While he is recouperating, he can hang out with Pacman....errr Adam Jones and he can teach Adam the finer points of dating buxom blondes and Adam can teach him the thug life. They both have some time on their hands. Maybe they can even invite Felix Jones and he can find something to add to the conversation. "America's Team" ha! Since it is an election year, I demand a recount - no hanging chads and lets not leave it for Florida to decide. Who is my favorite team this week?? Let me check the cowboy's schedule and get back to ya.
