NFL Comments

I watched parts of yesterday's NFL action. Actually, I watched Yahoo GameTracker and StatTracker as much as I watched the real thing. Honestly, right now I care more about my two fantasy leagues than the real-life results in the NFL. That will change later in the year, as teams become more defined, and the playoff picture becomes clearer.

I know the Colts are still pretty good, because I was beaten in a fantasy league this week by a team that had 4 Colts plus the Colts' defense. That's 5 out of 8 available positions.

I'm glad we didn't get that Seattle-Detroit snoozefest on Fox down here. 9-6. Ugh!

Perhaps I spoke too soon in calling the Buffalo Bills awful. They should have beaten the Patriots yesterday. The last team I slammed like that was in 2002, when, on a fantasy football message board, I called the Patriots putrid after week 2. They went on to win their first Super Bowl that year. I doubt if the Bills do the same thing this year, but they weren't awful yesterday.

I missed the second half of the Cowboys-Jaguars game yesterday, so I can't comment a whole lot. The Cowboys played great in the first quarter, then went in the tank. The Jags may be pretty good again this year, though.

I bet Brett Favre is wishing he hadn't come back to play this year. The Pack got sacked yesterday by their hated archrival, da Bears.

Reggie Bush looked pretty decent yesterday for the Saints. It's hard to tell if it was him or if it was the opponent, but I'm glad he's on my fantasy team.

That's it for now.

First of all, I can't believe we can't use the Stattracker today, after using it all day yesterday.

Second, why two Monday Night Football games in one night? Did someone screw up the schedule?

Finally, you gotta love the cowboys snatching that defeat from the jaws of victory. ;)

I noticed that about Stattracker tonight. They usually include Monday night with the first free week.

The Monday night doubleheader is something ESPN got with their new contract. I guess they liked last year's impromptu post-Katrina doubleheader last year with Saints-Giants and Redskins-Cowboys. This is probably the first NFL night game ever played at a decent time on the West Coast: 7:15 pm. On the other hand, we in the Central Time Zone get to experience what they normally do in the East: a really late football game, ending past midnight. As for the East, it'll be even later. A lot of fantasy geeks and gambling addicts in the East will be losing a lot of sleep tonight.

Needing Antonio Gates to have a big night...

BTW, the Raiders really suck.

Plus, playing in a baseball stadium is so 1960's. They need to move back to LA.

Next week, Monday Night Football returns to a single game. I forgot if it starts at 8 PM Central, or earlier.

Yeah, the whole going to the dirt to kick it around after someone thought they had a good play was a bit ridiculous, I thought.
