MORE FOOTBALL DREK


1) The 5th seeded Indian Apples lost to the #1-seeded-Hartford Whalers in the Fantasy Football semifinals by 5 points! 118-113 - with Romo, TO, and Tony Gonzalez having unreasonably tough days, there was no time like last week to upset #1. Instead, IA sat Anthony Gonzalez, who scored more than both Reggie Wayne and Randy Moss, costing them a berth in the FF Finals. BOOOO.

2) It has become flat-out impossible to enjoy Monday Night Football with the TV not on MUTE. The commentary is atrocious - its like hanging out with three guys who will say ANYTHING in order to say anything that might be correct or witty any time in the future. It's like walking through Manhattan putting down picnic blankets in case someone wants to have lunch: wasteful, ridiculous, and annoying. You guys are straight up killing it - in sports commentary I think you can be one of 3 things: a stater-of-facts-and-events, an insightful/compelling guy, or a funny-yet-somewhat-irrelevant-guy. Sadly, no one currently comes close to any of those archetypes. Steve Young and Emmitt feel like playing the Roxy in 2001 after 3 months on the west coast after the game. Seriously, you're killing it. Seriously. You're killing it. Seriously.

3) I attended my first-ever NFL game last Sunday, and I was blown away by the passion and machoism displayed by multitudes of men in their mid-40s and over for a sports franchise. Who knew so many people owned LaDanian Tomlinson jerseys (shoutout to the 3 guys that sported Calvin 81 jerseys into the lions' den)? I love watching guys get into fistfights about pro-sports teams, but second on the list is this guy:




Big ups to The Philosophy Major, and the Cupcakes are goin' down this weekend!
