2nd Chances are Good but eh?

Okay, so it's Friday night and I am giving "Inside the NFL" one more chance. So far, not glued to it, have switched to Ducks game and had a lengthy phone conversation with a friend. Safe to say I am not riveted (like I used to be.) Sorry guys, but you just don't have that magic the show had for 30+ years!

Chris - you do what you do (on a lot of stations) and I am fine with it, don't love you in the Costas role..sorry dude.
Warren - like your on field attitude and your fancy footwork, but eh not loving you here.
Phil - keep calling games - you are great at it!
JB - you are a career moderator and that's fine for CBS of Fox but you're filling big shoes here.

Peter King where are you? I miss you so much. Come back to TV.

Week 10 Craziness

I watched the first half of the Thursday game on NFL Network with a feeling of pending doom as Denver lost more key players. Would we really go down to Cleveland and a rookie QB? What a relief with Royal (with Cheese) made a huge TD and then we recovered a fumble (and actually scored on it.)

It was a much-needed win and Broncos fans rejoiced all over the world including twitter and facebook!

Now let's discuss the Monday night game...I found myself pulling for the 49ers (even though I had a lot to gain by an Arizona win) and it was a great game! Save for some bad playcalling at the end, the 49ers really impressed me. I hope this is finally the beginning of a new era for them, it's been a long time coming. I picked them this week against Seattle...hope they pull it off.

I'd like to thank the Oakland Raiders for keeping me in my eliminator pool...I need you guys to do it again on Sunday please.

Great game tonight in New England...I took the Jets...Go Brett!
