i cannot help but wonder what has happened in the universe of sports this year. Anyone else noticing the crazy stuff going on? Last night just topped it off. I was just as shocked as anyone else hearing (cause i rarely watch the regular season) that the #1 team in baseball this year was the Tampa Bay Rays. Where did these guys come from? They were the bottom of the pile last year and now all of the sudden they are going to the world series with a legitimate shot at winning it all? And that is just the cherry on top of an already large surprise cake. The Dallas Cowboys who have been picked by many people to win the superbowl prior to them losing 3 out of the last 4 games; Last season the New Orlean Hornets having the best record in the NBA; The Yankees not making the playoffs; The Patriots losing (which, honestly i am happy about. not necessarily Brady's injury; although i don't like him at all i never wish bad things on people); I am even sure i could come up with something about hockey even though i hate hockey.
So all that said, what is going on? Anyone have any clues? I sure don't!!
To contradict Rob Bell.....the gods MUST be angry!!
What has happened?
Last week I started this blog with the intention of having a different topic everyday. I poured over the suggestions and settled on the ones below..and they are.....:
Mondays - Sports
Tuesdays - Technology
Wednesdays - Religion
Thursdays - Music
Fridays - Top 5/10 List
So this being Monday.....i figured i would have to post about the silver and blue, america's team....the dallas cowboys. i have been a life long cowboys fan due my favorite beanbag chair when i was a kid. So, the 90's were a great ride but from then on it's been a rough ride. I guess you have to be a cowboy as well just to cheer for them because over the last several years we've had to dig our heel in and hang on tight.
To be honest, i didn't want to blog about the cowboys today but in watching some ESPN this morning i heard something I didn't know about the ridiculousness that was yesterday's game between the dallas cowboys and the arizona cardinals. after all the turnovers & hoopla that occurred in the game some actual history was made. Listening to Chris Berman (whom i cannot stand) he alerted me to the fact that the dallas cowboys will go down in history as the only team to lose a game by having a punt blocked and returned for a touchdown. So, from now on, amongst all the history, records, and hall of famer's that are part of the silver and blue family....we will also be pinned with that record. great!! something else as ridiculous as Jessica Simpson that we can't get rid of!!
