Has He Changed His Ways?
First of all, it must be noted that this is one of the best times of the year. Football is back. It was a great weekend with Notre Dame and Penn State renewing the running back U/linebacker U rivalry on Saturday and the NFL kicking off its first Sunday of the season. Tough to watch ND beat PSU like a redheaded stepchild, but in the end I made some easy money off the Irish victory so I'll get over it. Sunday was more enjoyable though, with da Birds beating up on a not-so-good Texans squad, the Giants losing to the Colts, and the Jaguars spoiling TO's Dallas debut with a win over the 'Boys. Speaking of TO, I almost didn't recognize him this week. 81 had a strong game, breaking tackles like he always does and he even added a late TD. But he didn't celebrate. Weird. I was looking forward to him mocking the Birds with the Birdflap. Didn't happen. We might have to wait until Dallas comes to the Linc to see that, which by the way is less than a month away. Somehow I will be at that game. Don't know how yet but I will find a way in without spending 3 grand on stubhub.
Dallas quarterback Drew Bledsoe royally sucked it up on Sunday, throwing three interceptions and eerily resembling my dad after he pulls his hamstring throwing horseshoes on the beach. No Philadelphia/San Francisco-like sideline outbursts or harsh words from TO though. Maybe he's finally realized that it's not all about him. Here's my prediction: TO kills Bledsoe in his sleep, gets caught, and has his agent explain that he is genuinely a good guy who killed the QB for the better of the Dallas fans. It's believable.

This was a hell of week for football... up until the second Monday night game.
The whole city is back on the Eagles bandwagon. I guess that mean the Phillies can stop chasing the wildcard now.
