Around the League in 80 Seconds

Monday, December 11, 2006 | Jeff

This should keep me busy and kill a half hour. I won't write anything else today until the District writes his victory column tonight.

Can people stop killing the Jets for losing yesterday? The Jets stink. Lisa Olson grilling them in today's Daily News is completely moronic. Yesterday should be looked at as further proof to the kind of miracle Mangini has worked this year. That team stinks. Kerry Rhodes, Jon Vilma, some rookies and crap.

Mitch Albom is a damn good sportswriter. But when he's not writing about sports, like his latest column, he makes me wanna beat infants.

Good to see Woody Paige back where he belongs. On the page and off my television. The Denver Broncos' season is over.

I'm not into killing the Houston Texans but no sports franchise had a single worse day this year than they had yesterday. Richard "I'd be awesome if I went by Dick" Justice nailed it in the Chronicle. First line sums it up: "At this point, the best thing for you to do is turn off the television when there's an NFL game on." I almost feel bad for Mario Williams.

Joey Harrington is having a nice season and I've got to admit I'm pretty happy for him.

Gil LeBreton pens the eulogy to the Romo can do no wrong era in the Star Telegram. You know who else was brilliant through five games? Rex Grossman.

Jason Whitlock considers the Chiefs loss is enough to blow up the whole fucking thing. Is he nuts? How long do you give a group of players to win a title?

I read articles like this one about Jeff Garcia and I'm sad...because it's correct.

See ya'll back here at 11-2.

Jeff, I agree with what you said about the Jets. I don't know why everyone is acting so suprised. The jets are not that good of a football team -- they had the win against NE and everyone started praising Mangini. They may still make the playoffs based on their scheudle, but they'll get knocked out in the first round.

As for the game tonight, I'm tired of the criticism and all of the talk around Grossman. I hope he has a monster night and shuts everyone up. Will he? Who knows, but there is SO much riding on this game for him, not oly his future this season, but his future as a Bear. I hope he handles the pressure positively.

I'm anxious for the game to get goin. 2 1/2 more hours!!

My prediction: Bears win, 38-13. Grossman shakes off the rust, Benson has a big night, Hester nails another return for a TD, and The Defense annihilates Bulger.

Bears 35 - Ramo's 14

(Rex has a break out game. Brian U scores. I give the Rams 14 because they are at home)

The 'D' is /has been devastaded by the amount of time they have been on the field the past seven weeks. It is surprising they have not been more bitch slapped than they have been tonight so far.

Too bad that Rex has not shown to be the man he has shown himself to be these past weeks as it lloks like we are stuck with him throughout. I do hope he proves me wrong, God I hope so, but I think that will not be the case.

Go Bears!
