Going to be a long week. The Wife is on a trip so I’m flying solo until Friday. In between, there’s Scouts, karate, and a play date. Along with the usual chores related to getting the kids off to school. Should be interesting, to say the least. And busy.
Racquetball started tonight. New partner, I played well but just ran out of steam. Ended up losing 2 out of 3. Not bad all in all. We were in the 2 losses and arguably should have won one of them. That’s how it goes though. Had to rush home to pick up the kids and get them to bed at a reasonable time.
Interesting football weekend. South Carolina pulled one of those legitimate “we shocked the world” games. I suppose, in hindsight, it was a classic “trap” game since ‘Bama had just come off a dominating performance over Florida. But there aren’t too many who’d have predicted that one. Florida and LSU played a great one as well- down to the final seconds.
The worst part of ‘Bama losing is that Ohio State is the new number 1. I’m not sure how that works. I bet there’s a few SEC teams who are better right now, including ‘Bama. But the season is yet to play out.
As far as the Pro’s go, I guess Dallas is good enough to lose games against good teams that they’re capable of winning. I think the Tennessee game really showed just how mediocre their o-line is. There’s a lot of work to be done there- I don’t know if it’s the players or the coaching. New Orleans is suffering from the classic “year after” effect. Guess we’ll have to see what Moss means to Minnesota.
That’s all. Time to eat.
