My TV Musings

Gators and Longhorns won by 10-point margins, but USC lost to Washington and ‘Bama won their game, so there’s a little bit of a shake up in the top 5. I can only hope that Kentucky will be an easy win for the Gators next week because Texas takes on UTEP which should be [...]

What a great game! I never expected to want to watch the entire game, expected the Pats to kill the Bills from the start. I’ve gotta give it to Trent Edwards and the Bills’ offense for bringing it, too bad they couldn’t take it to the very end of the game. Still [...]

As every Sunday during football season, opening day is a dawn to dusk event at my house, starting with ESPN’s Sports Reporters, followed by the talking heads, trying to juggle as many as possible by recording 2 on the DVR and watching 1 on live TV. Got to be sure to hear the predictions, [...]

The top 2, Florida and Texas, will undoubtedly keep their places in the ranks since they both rolled over their opponents today, but certainly Texas is happy to see that Sam Bradford went out in the first half and lost to BYU. Sam may be out anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks, so they [...]

It was fun watching Favre play again, even though he’s now with the Minnesota Vikings. And it’s easier to root for them with Percy Harvin, newly drafted from the Gators, on the team. But I still hoped that the Texans could beat them. Even Jaworski said some really good things about Shaub! [...]

I have been an avid Florida Gator fan for some time now, despite the fact that I live in Austin, Texas, home of the Texas Longhorns.  Last year there was some controversy over who should have even been IN the final game, much less who should have won.  I’m one of the many fans who [...]

Thought I was gone for good, right?  No, I’ve been ill and it will be a few months before I’m back 100%, but I’m coming up for air feeling just a tad better today and figured some of you might actually care about the shows that I’m interested in following during August.  So, here’s what [...]

I can’t believe they really did it! The New York Giants pulled off the biggest upset in the history of the NFL!
Now Eli can hold his head up when the Manning name is mentioned, knowing he has at least equalled if not surpassed Peyton’s accomplishments.
I can’t wait to see how the media is going [...]

I know it seems odd, no football this Sunday, but just think of it as practice for after the Super Bowl.  You can get some projects done around the house or watch the skating championships!
Next week we get the Super Bowl, then the Pro Bowl (if you like that kind of stuff), followed by the [...]

Crazy about the NFL? Planning to watch all the playoffs this weekend? Then you must know how I feel about Chris Berman, alias the Swami, on ESPN!
Here are his predictions for the winners of this weekend’s playoff games. He tried to pick all the home teams but just couldn’t conceive that Pittsburgh, [...]
