My esteemed colleague Mr. Mizerle06 and I don’t see eye to eye. New Year’s Eve rocks! No, not for the party hard, waking up in someone’s yard with your boxers on your head type reasons. It’s just another day? Not even close! It’s day you can shoot off a boat load of fireworks and the cops just have to ignore it because they can’t ticket everyone. It’s a day where you can sing “Auld Lang Syne” and not get your ass kicked for being too fruity. It’s a day where watching Ryan Seacrest host a ball drop doesn’t make you feel kinda wierd.

It’s also the day where you start the ham hocks boilin’ so your greens and hoppin’ john are perfectly soaked and stewed for New Years day, plus you gotta smoke the ribs for a few hours, so you don’t have to wake up as early on New Year’s Day…MMMmmm…

And to cap it all off, you can make a crap resolution that you’ll never follow through with.

My New Year’s resolution? I’m gonna stop being so darn cool…take that conformity.

New Years at the Shanahan house won’t be quite as fun…After the Broncos let the long time coach go. Look for the “Lions sign Shanahan” with some witty tagline on here any day now.

The Jets and Bill Cowher are apparently talking…I don’t see this leading to much, in fact, I think Cowher flakes and gives it another year to see if a job that has viable young talent is still around. (which is why Cleveland would have been a great spot)

Safe for another season is Bills’ coach Dick Jauron.

While the Browns are talking to Mangini…the jury is still out on this guy. His team did cave, but the mistakes of a certain quarterback were certainly a big reason.

And if you were concerned, that quarterback will be ok.

Carlos Boozer is having surgery…and Dikembe Mutombo is back for the remainder of the season in Houston…and hey, why not include your NBA scores which includes the Heat beating the Cavs on Lebron’s birthday.

Hockey (there I said it)

The Gators win over Stetson headlined a big night of college roundball…Purdue was knocked off by the Illini at home…and the SEC reigned supreme against the Big 12, as Arkansas beat Oklahoma.

Yum Brands (owner of Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut) tells you how to make their food healthier because they won’t do it for you.

Thanks to a big Rice win over Western Michigan it’s now Rocky Top 2 – Shorty Short Jorts 1…We’ve got a ballgame…Maryland won a game in beautifully warm and sunny Boise, Idaho…The game of the night belonged to the Holiday Bowl.

Remember most of all if you’re gonna be drinkin’…be safe tonight, the $50 for a cab is much cheaper than the $4-5k for the DUI. A little lawyerly advice from GatorTrey. Happy New Year Ya’ll!
