Pardon me for this will be simplistic, you might say a mailed-in version. but read the last portion of this and you would understand.
Brutal month, right?
Time for the links.
The BCS standings are out. You better subscribe to the Al Davis philosophy to advance.
Well, TCU is right now on the outside looking in, but their coach does not care. Focus is on BYU. And guess who will be there?
More fodder for TWTWCFB: This guy might end the QB Heisman run.
Exhibit B as to why if you can leave, you ought to leave. I think we should be showing this to a certain QB in South Bend.
Sad sad news from Storrs. I like their chances this Sautrday against a West Virginia team with issues at QB.
Moving to beisbol:
This is the tim kurkjian special: the Game 3 NLCS edition.
Bill Plaschke reminding the Dodgers about their trading gaffe.
Angels hoping their last two games were merely a mirage. However, in New York, A-Rod is clutch (so far). Must be the Kate Hudson.
Btw, Bud is not the only one hoping for a Joe vs Joe.
Your weekly Futbol update: Hot and Not in the Premier League. And btw, World Cup spots on the line as the matchups are to be determined.
Peyton 2008 = Brady 2009. This is why. Hard to believe Titans are 0-6.
The bookends of the NFL Franchise value index have issues. At least Oakland can hang their hat on a win. Zorn without play calling is a lame duck. Btw, their next game is Monday night (October 26) against the Eagles.
Oh, the State of New York lost all three games against Archie’s boys, with Sparty’s G-Men being the last one.
Parting videos:
After the Palace Brawl, there are times people never learn. See this case:
UPDATE: he has been thrown the book.
Meanwhile: here is a better way to end the post…
Enjoy the week ahead.
P.S. Dad, I love you.

your standard dogpoo-of-a-TMA.your TMA’s are good too, trey!

It will be France vs Slovenia, Portugal vs Bosnia-Herzegovina, Russia vs Ireland and Greece vs Ukraine (not weak). The matchups are determined by the FIFA world rankings. The only thing the draw determines is who plays at home first in the home and home series.

Ha! I’m gonna set the record for longest TMA come Wednesday.

Is it really possible that the Titans are that bad or are the Patriots finally starting to get things going on the Offensive end?

JP, it has been a tough year for me as well. My father is still alive at 87. However I moved him into a nursing home after several long struggles in the hospital and rehab facilities. There are things worse than death. Living in a dementia ward in a nursing home, sitting in a diaper in a wheel chair is worse. Couple that with the fact that he is sleeping 98% of the day, hardly ever knows where he is and can’t even do basic things like go to the bathroom or feed himself most of the time, I would pray for a quick end if I believed in any supernatural creator of the universe who would listen.
I think of my father who said good-bye to his father for the last time at age 15 while his mother was already gone for 4 years and fled for his life. The man who served in the British Navy in WWII. The man who took care of the family, the man who was still skiing at age 70 and working until he was 72 is a shell of his former self.
So JP, I understand it is tough to go through a loss like you have. After my mother passed away when I was 15, I realized that to do your parents proud, you need to live your life and enjoy it. They wouldn’t want anything less. And in your love for life, your parents still live within you.

I think it is a little of both. Tenn is not playing well at all, but I do believe NE is starting to click. On the other hand, things do seem to click that much better when you play a crappy team at home.

You have my sincere condolences JP. I lost my father several years ago, but there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about him. Peace be with you, my friend.

JP – Sorry for you loss. My dad passed 7 years ago, was sick for 8 years before that and his last years were dismal. I am sure your pop is in a better place and will keep an eye on you until you can be together again.
