(Are there any dogs in the house? WOOF-WOOF-WOOF!!!)
That’s Why They Play the Game!
Who-da-thunk-it? Week thirteen brought some really high powered upsets.
First, does anybody think Miami isn’t just a little more motivated when they play New England? Visions of a snow blower being dispatched on the field to clear a spot to make it easier for New England a decisive field goal back in the days of Don Shula is certainly part of these two AFC East rivals’ lore. Miami made those boys from Massachusetts pay dearly for escaping the cold weather for the sunny joys of South Florida in a remarkable 22-21 victory.
The Oakland Raiders had been given up for dead before the season ever started, but now they’ve managed to pull off their 4th victory travelling to Pittsburgh and blowing their noses in those horrible terrible towels and beating the defending Super Bowl champs by a field goal. Yo' Iron City fellahs, you're not going to the playoffs this year. Enough to make a Steelers' dude choke on his Primanti Brothers monster sandwich.
Hey, big guy, you got some cole slaw running down your chin!
The New Orleans Saints travelled to the Maryland suburbs of the Nation’s Capital to face the hapless Washington Redskins. Surely, the Skins couldn’t pull the upset and ruin the Saints run at a perfect season could they?
At the end of regulation, the game was undecided. Could Danny’s boys beat the NFC’s most distinguished team, maybe a little tired after playing New England Monday night?
One more thing, the Saints NEVER win when the temperature is below 40 degrees. It’s been years, well over a decade at least.
Sorry folks, this is the Washington Redskins, experts at stealing defeat from the jaws of victory, turnovers and terrors are the tale of this game for Washington losing in overtime by a field goal.
Hey, HOW ‘BOUT THEM COWBOYS? Anybody want to take bets that a lot of Dallas area sports fans are lighting up the phone lines to complain about their star struck QB, Tony Romo, heading off to Vegas after their traditional Thanksgiving game? The Cowboys started play today atop the NFC east with a respectable 8-3 mark. However, something happened before they could hop on a jet and fly home from East Rutherford, New Jersey. They lost to the New York Giants, a team that has been struggling badly recently. The Giants dominated the game winning 31-24. Oh, what month is this? Did somebody say, December? The ‘Boys don’t win in December during the Tony Romo era? Wasn’t this the year the rock star groupie was finally settling down and finding his groove? What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? It appears Romo left his football talent in the casino, huh?
‘Twas not a good night for Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings as they travelled to the Arizona desert to play in a domed stadium a lot fancier than theirs and got turned inside out by Kurt Warner and all those other talented dudes who surround him. Last year, the Cardinals’ march to the post season looked like a fluke. This year, they look totally legit beating a team that could scarcely do wrong so far this year.
The playoff fight continues as Baltimore invades the Frozen Tundra for Monday Night Football against the Cheeseheads. This is a crucial game for both teams looking to improve their playoff odds.
