Random Shots: Cleaning Out The Closet Edition
Our closet is full and we need to empty it it. Random shots while wondering whatever happened to Pat Keedy:- Packer fans probably got depressed last night when their heroes gotpummeled by San Francisco. But fear not, Cheeseheads, there is a light at the end of your Hillbillyless tunnel. Do you real think that during the regular season the Packers would have the ball first and goal on the seven and not run at least once? These are practice games, people. And besides, if you are a Packer fan going through Hillbilly withdrawal and crying in your Schlitz because the Packers are 0-2 in pre-season and Aaron Rodgers appears to look shaky, it could be worse. You could be a Bears fan. The Bears may have the worst offensive line in the history of the NFL.
- It really doesn't matter who is winning the Bears quarterback competition. They have no offensive line, no receivers and an offensive coordinator who is failing in the NFL for the second time. Add to that a head coach who thinks offense is basically to give his defense a rest and you have the recipe for disaster 2008. Thank God for the Lions.
- Speaking of the Hillbilly, he raised some eyebrows last night scoring on his second drive as a Jet. Of course, Peter King was there to take it all in. The Packers still want the Hillbilly to sign a marketing deal for his post career. That may or may not be possible depending on how wronged the Hillbilly thinks he was in the protracted negotiations with the Packers and then the trade to the Jets. Besides, part of the deal for him was to write a blog. I just can't see that.
- In any case, people are pretty tired of him. Even people that work for networks. But don't worry: New worshipers are on the way.
- Things are certainly looking up for hockey in Chicago. People are buying tickets to see the Hawks again. And, the Hawks will actually be on national TV a few times. Nothing would make me happier than to see hockey outshine the NBA in Chicago again.
- The Tampa Bay Devil Rays sure are beat up. Here's hoping they can hold off the Barbarians at the gate. I think they would be a lot easier to face in the playoffs than either the Red Sox or Yankees.
- Fox Sports says Philly is the number one NFL fan base. Wrong. Try Cleveland, Pittsburgh or Green Bay.
- The daughter of the Walrus gets booted from a fantasy league because of alleged insider information.
- True, Michael Phelps is an Olympic hero. But a bigger hero might be a guy who has soldiered on despite a horrible tragedy.
- Got a question? Ask Jimmy Leyland! (Diamond Hoggers)
- Moose speaks the truth. Chicago is where receivers go to die. Quarterbacks too. (Tremendous Upside Potential)
- Forbes claims Nick Saban is the most powerful coach in sports. For my money, I'd take either Coach K or Mike Shanahan.
