Zzzzz…Oh Wait, Thoughts on BCS Championship

Guess That’s Over Now

To be honest, I’m getting old. Old, tired and maybe a little less inspired – at least by sports. Even when this game was tied in the fourth I had a hard time convincing my fiancee. “No, honey, it’s not that boring. See, it’s close!”

But, it wasn’t…wasn’t not boring…wasn’t that close. There was a moment when her persistent bitching about Grey’s Anatomy almost convinced me to just let her watch the damn thing. I didn’t. But, regardless, I have no energy to really go on about the game. Florida won. Yippee. Other observations.

1. FOX is an abomination. So bad that Thom Brennaman actually became humorous in his horridness. Expectedly, Awful Announcing was right on top of it documenting every idiotic quote – and they were plentiful.

2. I don’t mind Tebow, but the saliva-spewing, fist-pumping gyration episodes are starting to get a little played out. Looks like Linda Blair on steroids with holy-hypin’ eye black. Spare me, Timmy.

3. Sam Bradford is a Heisman Trophy winner? He’s one of the top QBs projected in the 2009 NFL Draft? Really???

4. I’m over the Gatorade dunk. Seriously. I had a Gatorade dunk t-shirt in grade school. It was super-cool and novel back when Parcells got it after the G-Men’s 1987 Super Bowl win. Neat-o then. Lame-o now.

5. Percy Harvin is a stud. They should’ve given him the ball 20 more times. He’s one of those guys (like Reggie Bush was) that you watch and, once they are in the open field, look like they’re playing at a different speed. Exciting player. And what’s with these skinny-looking dudes throwing up houses on a bar? 410 bench?

6. In reality, there were probably 25 future NFL guys on that field tonight. The only player who jumped out at me who I could envision playing Sundays now was Gresham. Guy has the pro look and is going to cause problems for defenses at the next level. Just got that impression. Who knows…

7. Other than that a whole lotta nothing standing out for me.

Maybe I missed something. Wake me up for this weekend’s playoff games. Later.

    the whole game was like brennaman giving tebow a hummer. since he’s such a devout christian, do you think he would have accepted if brennaman offered one?

  3. Cecilio's Scribe says:

    excellent question. I think perhaps, yes.

    “You just have to meet this kid!”

    That game did nothing to help my lack of interest in football; I was bored as shit.

    Or maybe it’s just that winning is becoming commonplace for us now.

    And did Tebow really live in a leaper colony? Do they still have those? Wouldn’t he have gotten leapracy if he stayed at a leaper colony?
