By now everyone whose had cable, a vcr or dvd knows the legendary line spoken by the Michael Douglas character Gordon Gecco in the movie "Wall Street" about greed being good. It's debatable but I must admit my level grew in geometric proportions during Oregon's Civil War romp. The culmination came when Brandon Bair recovered that late Oregon State fumble. I'm screaming for him to take it in so the point total would surpass 70. Then I'm thinking if he goes down and the offense can gain a mere 3 more yards they get past 700 yards. The joke is most Duck fans would have signed their name in blood before kickoff just to be guaranteed any kind of victory. As things moved along I found myself wanting more and more. Okay, greed IS good! Well at least it can be fun. We will talk about this season, where it began and how we landed here.
Most humorous moment of the weekend came late in the Carolina win at Green Bay. Panther back Deangelo Williams had scored on his 4th 1-yard TD run to give them the lead for good. He spotted a couple of Panther fans in the first row at Lambeau Field and attempted to flip them the football. A Packer fan in row two would have none of it and swatted the ball back onto the field. This was the ultimate anti-Lambeau Leap.
One of the most moronic issues surfaced last week. After throwing for more than 400 yards in back to back games, some suggested Matt Cassell be the new and future Patriot's quarterback and they should consider trading Tom Brady. I can't emphasize how idiotic this is/was simply in writing so you'll have to tune in for a potentially classic ST rant!
Texas and Oklahoma finished with identical records. Texas beat Oklahoma. Oklahoma is ranked ahead of the Longhorns in the BCS formula. The NCAA suits are right. We don't need a playoff. This makes perfect sense.
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.
