Lions Lose Again...

It is a Miracle. The Lions did not have to watch Brett Favre celebrate his 500th Touchdown Pass. Well onward to Green Bay, where the Lions haven't won since 94? Who knows, these guys just plain lose when it comes to the road.

Stafford please come back! Best please come back!

LIONS EAGLES< LOSS< ARRRGGG!!!!

Going for it on 4th Down, in Field Goal Range, when Down by 11?!?!?! PLAYOFFS?!?!!!!

KICK THE FIELD GOAL!

Ending Result: Philadelphia 35, Detroit 32

DIFFERENCE: A FIELD GOAL!!!

SCHWARTZZZZZZZ!!!!

Shaun Hill, Detroit Lions QB vs. Eagles

Game is not over yet, but I have yet to see this guy throw to his second option. It is either, throw to first option or run or get crushed in the backfield. Not good, I may want to see Drew Stanton get a chance with the first team if he cannot get it together.

MSU Thriller in Overtime!!

It has been over 12 hours since I witnessed one of the best finishes to a NCAA football game ever. Notre Dame played a overtime thriller at Michigan State last night. Fast forward to overtime, the Fighting Irish won the toss in overtime and choose to take the ball first against the Spartans.

My belief is in overtime, on the road, you must take the ball last. But the Head Coach of the Irish, Kelly wanted to put the pressure on the Spartans at the end of the game, and it turned out to foil the Irish. The Irish got stopped that lead to a successful field goal. MSU after 3 terrible plays which included a sack of (6 yards-if memory serves right) to set up a game-tying field goal. The field goal would of been a 40 something long kick.

I sat in the Fan Cave, saying "He is going to miss this kick"

A huge pressure kick, the play was called in for a fake. The holder, a former QB in High School threw a perfect pass to a Tight End who galloped to the end zone.

IT was the biggest call that Mike Dantonio might of ever made which might of saved his season and possible job. I write this as Dantonio has entered this 4th season at MSU with a 22-17 record with 3 Bowl Game Losses! Certainly lackluster, Spartans strive to have their football program march out from mediocre days of Coach L. Smith. They want to be on the same level of Penn State, Ohio State and Michigan, as national powers. I don't know if they will get to that point, but this game certainly helps Dantonio towards that goal, and creates major buzz that will carry throughout this season. That play, will be huge with the media, locally for recruits and possibly nationally. I am projecting that play will win a ESPY award for Best Play. Mark it down!!

Let's hope victory for MSU will continue towards great things.

Hail to the Victors..

Michigan leading UMASS 42-24 with 9 minutes remaining.

The passing defense must be a major concern with the Michigan coaching staff, so far they haven't been very impressive.

Also, UMASS has some of the worse uniforms and helmet in D1 football, it appears they got the leftover designs from Maryland. Yuck

The "Bush" Tax Cuts

So there has been huge buzz about the expiring "Bush" tax cuts. Democrats want to keep the expiration with adding cuts for the non-rich under 250K. While the Republicans want to push for those tax cuts to continue. Republicans also want to keep tax cuts for those especially whom create jobs, while most the buzz lately is a separate Small Business Tax Relief bill (which just passed the senate with 61 votes), which would help depreciate cost on expenses of property acquired or services, relief for other areas which are mind numbing to write as it is to read.

Does this bill equate the "Bush" tax cuts for small businesses, and makes it okay for the tax cuts to expire? Gosh, I would hope not, reading the points didn't seem that grand of an idea, granted I don't own a small business nor have a business degree (but neither do a majority of congress).

The AP reports that a family making 50K per year, will pay 2900 (14.5%) more dollars in taxes. So much for "Bush's" tax cuts for the rich? I don't see "Bush" paying those taxes, those are yours, mine, and your neighbors as Dave Ramsey says.

Also, have you ever seen a poor person employ people? Yeah, me neither.

Also, so tired of people and media that rail on Former President Bush for ruining the Economy. The Economy started to stall out when the republicans lost congress in 2006. Also my thought on the brilliant idea of possibly passing Cap and Trade is that the economy will run off the proverbial cliff and the dow jones industrial average will drop to 5500.

Pistons 2004 Finals Game 5

People love to rip on how ugly the Pistons Championship for being downright ugly-no offense basketball. But after watching Game 5 tonight on NBATV, the Pistons outscored the Lakers 90 to 65 with 8 minutes left in the 4th Quarter. They took their foot off the accelerator and could of scored 125 if needed in that game.
