Random Monday Football Night Thoughts

September 20, 2005

- Troy Aikman may be the best announcer with over 47 concussions in the history of television. I hated him when he played, but I have to give him props on this one. You’d think he’d have the Muhammad Ali head-on-a-slinky routine going after all the hits he took

- Michael Irvin is a moron.

- Courtney Watson is now the starting middle linebacker for the New Orleans Saints. This is the same man with whom Gerome Sapp and I played Kings in Castle Point not two years ago, and the same man who told off Susan Belleza in Finance 231 four years ago. Weird. By the way, how cool is this picture of Courtney tackling Julius Jones?

- Mark Brunell is insanely slow.

- Is it too effeminate to drink white wine while watching Monday Night Football? What’s the ruling here? What if it were red wine? Do you have to drink beer during Monday Night Football? Whatever. I like wine.

- Drew Bledsoe has big black bags around his eyes. Either he’s a heroin addict, or he was up all night last night playing Madden 06 on Playstation trying to prepare for the Redskins.

- It’s so nice to see Julius Jones playing well. The guy deserves it.

- Brady Quinn will have a brighter future in the NFL than Drew Stanton.

- The Indians are playing absolutely DOMINATE baseball right now with a very young team. Sometimes I miss Cleveland.

- Did anyone else see LB Mark Simeneou kick extra points yesterday for the Eagles? David Akers got hurt in the first half, and Simeneou had to come out and kick. It was hilarious, but he made it! This was the equivalent of watching Jose Canseco pitch that one time for the Red Sox about 10 years ago. By the way, I have absolutely no idea how to spell “Mark Simeneou”.

- Cold Mountain is one of those movies that’s better than 99% of the crap Hollywood churns out these days, but it’s still not even close to cracking the AFI Top 100. Same goes for Million Dollar Baby.

- Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet were made for each other. Do you think he kicked the crap out of John Cusak after the hooked up with her in High Fidelity? Come to think of it, I haven’t seen John Cusak in awhile. Of course, if I were going to date one of the Cosby kids, I’d probably have have to go with Sabrina Lebeauf. Although, when looking at her IMDB page, she’s roughly as old as my mother. That’s frightening.

- Are the “amount of time before the Redskins score a touchdown” and the “amount of time it takes Redskins fans to stop giving Joe Gibbs a free pass because he used to be a good coach” inversely proportional?

I need to go to sleep before my head explodes contemplating these mysteries…
