okay..it ended badly. admit it, if the Boyz arent in the Super Bowl
a season is wasted if you are a follower of the Good Guys with the stars
on their helmets. we got spoiled a long time ago and it just wont go away.
its our burden to bear and so we do.
which brings us to the off-season. this years is gonna be especially long.
free agent moves need to be made, whataya do ?? WR ? CB ? LB ?
which of the ones on our own team do you bring back ?
then after those choices are made its on to the draft.
woohoo...hold on to your hats...could be dicey, RB in the first round ??
or CB ? surely not a WR, but who really knows ? not me.
I dont even pretend that i know which direction jerry and wade and the braintrust
are gonna go. I also dont watch enough college ball to know who will make the BIG
jump to the next level and be great. lotta talking and guessing and just plain making
stuff up in the papers and on espn. take it all with a grain of salt.
besides i have a much more pressing dilemma.
WHO DO I WANT TO WIN THE SUPER BOWL ??
do i want the cheating, dirty, over talented, patriots to win and finish the
season undefeated ?? if it happens get ready to overdose on "greatest ever" stories
from every hack, blog and talking head out there. i am not really in the mood for
all that, but i am getting my mind ready for the possibility. i mean, be honest,
the Patriots are good, very good. i have watched them some, and i think whoever they
are playing has a good chance to beat them, and then next thing you know the pats
are pulling a victory out and i am left wondering what happened.
BUT...can i really root for the giants ?? thats gonna be hard to do too, although
since shockey isnt playing it wont make me as sick. i am not one of those eli bashers
either. be real, eli is an nfl qb, he has it in his blood and his brains. he may be
goofy looking, and he throws interceptions sometimes but he can and will beat you.
but i just cant root for the trash talking giants of jacobs and ohara can i??
i also cant watch a game without wanting one team to win. seems to lose its appeal
when i try that. so i gotta choose. anybody got a coin i can flip ??

all wrapped up
okay so an official wrap up is required.
nothing expert, professional or unbiased about
what i will say, just my feelings from watching
the game at The Tabernacle.
Looked to me like our defense got too concerned
with stopping the run and not letting anybody get
deep on us to the detriment of our pass rush.
Offensively it looked like we were bound and determined
to run the ball at the Gints and for whatever reason
that was to the detriment of our passing game. Mr. Romo
never looked comfortable throwing the ball, i dont know
why nor will i speculate
Special teams pretty much sucked kicking and receiving.
So to sum up, our team got beat by their team. I know
the stats say we did better but sometimes stats lie.
I felt good about our chances until that TD before the half,
didn't feel too bad until we kicked a FG instead of scoring a TD,
was cautiously optimistic on the last 2 drives but just didn't
have a feeling that we could score when we really needed to.
Our #3 receiver played probably his worst game of the year and
that bugs me cause I had started expecting more of him.
That only leaves the coaches and to be honest, they did not
have this team ready to play Sunday. I know million dollar men
shouldn't need to be "motivated" but I have always felt like they do
in fact need it. Theres a reason special coaches have more success than
everybody else. However do NOT take this a call for anyones job.
I am happy with the coaches who are still here and look forward to seeing the new
coaches. I am a fan, so just know I will be watching the offseason and getting
pumped up for next year cuz its gonna be good.

official wrap up
hmmmmm.......i wrote a 1500 word post game, post season wrap-up
but since i added that no-cussing, no-screaming filter to my blog
i guess none of it could be shown.
i will try again when i can use words that will squeak by the filter.
