WHAT A GREAT WEEK FOR ME!!! it started off with notre dame getting pounded on the biggest stage of the year and it ends with the packers getting crushed by the 49ers. now all the real football begins but a few parting words from college football.
ever wonder why people hate notre dame so much? read on......
BRIAN TE'O, the father of linebacker MANTI, is mad at the honululu star newspaper for running a FACTUAL & UNTOUCHED photo of his son missing a tackle against alabama and wants everyone to cancel their subscriptions. manti, who spent more time on his back that night than a cheap hooker, was manhandled for the entire game and missed BUNCHES of tackles but dad feels it's "unfair" to publish a photo showing golden boy in a bad light. what a moron.
even MORE MORONIC was nose tackle LOUIS NIX' statement that "we were not dominated by alabama." louis, while i realize academics is probably not your strong suit, when a team has almost 550 of offense and leads at one point 35-0................you WERE DOMINATED. dumb ass.
the previous paragraphs pretty much say it all about notre dame. "it's never our fault and we're better than everyone else." but there's more.....
BRIAN KELLY, the overmatched coach in the BCS title game, went plying his wares in philadelphia as he interviewed for the eagles job after telling everyone two weeks earlier that he was 'perfectly content' at notre dame. I'M SHOCKED that kelly would lie!! oh wait, let's turn the clock back to 2009 when kelly told his cincinnati bearcat football team that he was "happy in cincinnati and my family is happpy in cincinnati and i plan on coaching here for a long time." two weeks later, at the football banquet, he announced he was taking the notre dame job.
i say he's the perfect guy for notre dame.
the weekend playoffs were great and how much does retiring linebacker RAY LEWIS love the game? happy to see him get one more game but it looks like the PATRIOTS are going to the super bowl. when you watch the patriots, you realize two things. 1) just how far the bears have to go and 2) JAY CUTLER is just 'ok' as a quarterback and the bears have zero chance to win a super bowl with him at the wheel.
the NFL has changed to offense, offense, offense which is a far cry from just ten years ago when "defense won championships" but not anymore. the goal now is to score a lot of points and play defense by keeping the other team's offense off the field. and if they do score, have enough firepower to come right back down the field. patriots, niners, falcons, packers, broncos and the vikings are just a few examples of teams that do that. WHO CARES if they score 30 points as long as we score 31. 'ground & pound' is rapidly going the way of the dinosaur.
don't agree? well, five teams have drafted quarterbacks in the last year who run the 'zone read' offense which carves you up 4-12 yards at a time and opens WIDE alleys for these qb's to take advantage of defenses who are scrambling in deep coverage. check out the teams with dead pocket passers.....pittsburgh, detroit, giants, jets, dallas, raiders, jaguars, chargers etc and what do they all have in common?? no playoffs.
enough for now.

IRISH BEAT DOWN
how much fun was tonite???!!!!??? watching those smug pricks from notre dame getting their asses kicked up & down the football field for three hours made me and millions of other fans smile ear-to-ear!
FIVE HUNDRED AND THIRTY YARDS OF OFFENSE against the vaunted irish defense?? impossible, you say? well, guess what, leprechaun boy, not only was it possible but the irish were exposed as a slow and fundamentally lacking team on defense and totally eviscerated by a superior team which comes from football's best conference.
YOU DON'T MESS WITH THE SEC without having team speed. i say again that at least 4 teams from the SEC would have trashed the irish. for seven consecutive years, a team from the SEC has held the crystal football and it was a joke to think that notre dame could compete on that level. a much better bowl game would have matched notre dame vs northern illinois, a battle between two teams deserving of a lower level bowl game.
FOR YEARS, officials have invented penalties to aid notre dame drives and turned a blind eye to irish infractions but ALABAMA took the officials out of the equation by jamming the ball down the irish throats early & often, thoroughly dominated the game to the point where the zebras could only watch and wince. even officials can't help a 28-0 half time lead. notre dame was beyond help.
any questions as to why notre dame has turned down numerous invitations over the years to play home & home series against various teams from the SEC? any questions on why notre dame chose to affiliate & hide in the ACC and play a very shielded schedule starting in the near future?
did you hear about the police action?? someone filed a 'missing person' report on golden boy Manti Te'o because he certainly was missing during the game. nfl scouting report should read: 6'02" 255 lbs. and realllllllllllllll slow with bad tackling skills. an abominable performance in the biggest game of the year. melted like a cheap candle under the national spotlight. heisman candidate, my ass.
notre dame hasn't been relevant in college football for a quarter century but this year they had a chance to grab the brass ring and failed miserably. the beautiful part of this BEATDOWN was that the irish graduate 29 seniors so they'll ride off into non-contender country and be playing in the gator bowl for the next five years with a 9-3 record. cheer, cheer for old notre dame!

a little bit of everything
506 murders in chicago last year. now subtract the carnage from the ENGLEWOOD, AUSTIN, GRESHAM & LAWNDALE districts and the count is around a hundred. you can't control the animals and the clearance rate is less than 25% because the 'NO SNITCH' rule smothers the black neighborhoods and detectives simply move on to other cases where people actually care what happens in their neighborhood. i have no sympathy for those people when they won't cooperate.
fiscal cliff, my ass. both parties playing 'chicken' with each other but finally making a deal when they realized citizens were actually paying attention and eventually the polls open again.
KUDOS TO CHRIS CHRISTIE, the governor of new jersey who once again called out his own party for 'playing games' with the lives of americans. "shame on you" and his compliments to PRESIDENT OBAMA during the east coast floods will get him re-elected as long as he wants to serve. now if he would just lose a couple of pounds to stay healthy.
the weather in illinois continues to be a problem following the summertime drought. as of today, lake county has had ONE INCH of snow, down 13 inches from normal. the water levels in the chain of lakes has been dropping for over two years and the current lack of snow isn't helping. several years ago, a similiar weather pattern put about 20 tavern owners out of business on the chain ina single summer when boating was prohibited because of low levels and extremely hot weather.
how stupid were the two guys who escaped the federal correctional center? they were clever enough to mastermind rappelling 15 stories with bed sheets to escape and then they split up...........good so far.............but then they stay in the area! the first dumb ass was picked up in two days and the second one lasted 18 days but was arrested in a familiar neighborhood where he was sleeping in the basement of an apartment building. HERE'S A HINT: when you escape, get the hell out of town! don't go back to areas familiar to you. rocket scientists.
a little pressure on mchenry county judge MAUREEN MCINTYRE??? she caught the involuntary manslaughter case of RICHARD VANECKO, the nephew of former chicago mayor RICHARD M. DALEY. actually, mcintyre is a republican who could care less about who the defendant is related to or who he knows. mcintyre is 65 years old so what are they going to do to her, make her retire?? this is fair for everyone but watch for vanecko to be found not guilty. 'reasonable doubt' will be huge in this trial.
our boy JESSE JACKSON, JR. should be indicted soon and wouldn't it be cool after pleading guilty if he was sent to the same prison where BLAGO is residing?
also look for his wife sandy to file for divorce. enough is enough.
enough for now. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

a potpourri of sports
well, if you liked the favorites in the playoffs, you made a killing this weekend as all of the underdogs were eliminated from the NFL playoffs. i've said it before: if you get beat on wild card weekend, you didn't deserve to be there. will anyone miss the vikings, redskins, bengals or the colts?? i don't think so!!
and now on to the big boys! PATRIOTS & BRONCOS are big favorites while the NINERS & FALCONS are slight favorites. WHOYAGOT????
does anybody want to play SEATTLE? scary.
would you like to challenge RAY LEWIS in a bar fight? yikes.
explain the bulls to me. lose to the worst team in the nba at home and then beat the defending world champs IN MIAMI. discuss.
the bubble will burst tomorrow for all the sycophants of notre dame football when they run into the SEC in the title game. you have to believe that BAMA, LSU & GEORGIA would all fare pretty well against the irish.
hockey finally got smart and signed a 10 year deal and it looks at first glance that the players actually held their own in the negotiations. the down part is they now play 48 games in 100 days. bad hockey is on the way but the games will mean much more with a limited schedule.
NIU'S debacle in the orange bowl just highlights why the BCS blows. why does a team ranked 15th get the nod to a big game? ridiculous.
how cool is it that PHIL EMERY has complete authority and proved it by whacking LOVIE the day after a 10-6 season??? if it's true that he's rebuilding, then say good-bye to JAY CUTLER & BRIAN URLACHER. cutler is a loser and has been since high school. plus, he needs a punch in the face.
if KELLEN DAVIS needs a ride to the bus station, i'm available. i've watched the bears for a long, long time and he's the WORST TIGHT END i've seen in chicago. can't block and dropped 6 passes at crucial times. adios.
CONGRATS TO THE CATS!!! coach PAT FITZGERALD finally got the monkey off his back by winning a bowl game.
hall of fame voting THIS WEEK IN BASEBALL. i like LEE SMITH & TIM RAINES. smith was a stud closer with almost 500 saves and raines put up big numbers over twenty years in the bigs with over 800 stolen bases and a .294 batting average and a batting title.
later!
