Peter Warrick lives!

We have a Peter Warrick sighting. He’s wearing a Seattle Seahawks uniform, and he’s playing garbage time with Seneca Wallace in Seattle, where the Seahawks are up 38-3 in the 4th against San Francisco. That would mean a clean sweep of the Division of Oz for the ‘Hawks, wouldn’t it? Of course, the analogy is […]Read More

Change of venue

I was on my way home when I decided to watch the second half of the late games at Oh Mulligan’s, which was on the way off of I-40 West. They appear to have had some turnover among the wait staff. More’s the pity. The waitress that used to work here was really hot. While I wasn’t looking, […]Read More

Verdict on Jillian’s

Good for billiards and video games. Okay for sweet tea. Bad for football. There was less energy in here than the Panthers had in Charlotte today. I’m heading out of here in a few. I need to find a more sports-oriented place next week.Read More

Philosophical question

The Houston Texans fell to 1-12 today after losing to Tennessee, 13-10, on a late game-winning field goal by the Titans. Is it possible to get the gas face and the Heisman Trophy winner at the same time? I wonder…Read More

Explain this one to me…

Drew Brees has passed the ball 30 times today. In the first half. Granted, LaDainian Tomlinson has 11 carries for 37 yards, but you would think the Chargers would show a little more balance on offense than that. Tomlinson is their primary weapon, not Brees. At the half, San Diego leads Miami, 7-3. Meanwhile in […]Read More

Eagles crippling Giants, still trailing by 3

The Philadelphia Eagles have forced both of the New York Giants’ starting tackles off to the locker room in carts. That’s a bad development for the Steelers’ playoff hopes, because New York has to play Kansas City next week, and the Chiefs are winning in Dallas right now, despite a Cowboy touchdown by Terry Glenn […]Read More

Changing spots

I’ve moved to the downstairs area of Jillian’s to watch the afternoon games. The TVs aren’t as close together here, and the audio is on for the Giants-Eagles game right in front of me, as opposed to the Chiefs-Cowboys game to my right and the Chargers-Dolphins game to my left. It’s still kind of dead […]Read More

Steelers 21, Bears 9

Steelers ran for 190 yards today. Bears ran for 84. Pittsburgh’s defense held Thomas Jones to 72 yards and forced Kyle Orton to throw the ball 35 times in a snowstorm. That’s your ball game. The Steelers faced a must-win game and imposed their will on the Bears today. Jerome Bettis had his first 100-yard […]Read More

Buccaneers 20, Panthers 10

How out of it were the Panthers today? With less than 5 minutes left and Carolina desperate for points, Jake Delhomme threw the ball to Nick Goings on 4th & 23… and Goings stepped out of bounds short of the 1st down. He didn’t know what down it was. Nick Goings gets the gas face. […]Read More
