Frost was on the windshield and other observations

Hi There. Had to bring the ice scraper out from the garage this morning. It was definitely cold this morning and I felt like I was coming down with one. First the upset specials. Another 1 for 2 week with UConn losing a close one to Pittsburgh, but you gotta hand it to the Bengals who pulled one out in last minute to beat the Ravens.
How bad was it for the Bay Area football teams? The 49ers and Raiders lost by a combined score of 99 to 17 and it would have been worse if Eli had played more than a half. The Raiders are so bad that if they took on Burnt Hills/Ballston Lake, my money would be on the Spartans.
Aren't you glad the Browns/Bills game wasn't on Sunday or Monday night?
Now for an another edition of The Greenhouse Effects' "You Make the Call!" Whose unis are more uglier. The choices: The Seahawks alternate Day-Glo Lime green jerseys or the Denver Broncos AFL throwbacks with the vertical striped socks.
You know your football team is having a good day when the Presidents Cup golf matches are more compelling to watch and you don't want to switch back and forth between the two.
Rush Limbaugh wants to buy the Rams and people are upset because?
Just want to take this time to thank the RedSox, Cardinals, and Twins for playing and don't forget to take a copy of the home game before you leave.
For all those critics of the Metrodome, it was 33 degrees outside at game time in Minneapolis last night. Hope Target Field has seat warmers as one of its fan amenities.
I'm fascinated that everyone has an opinion about David Letterman's recent troubles. One report I've read has people urging Dave to enter a sex rehab clinic. PETA wants him to be a spokesman to promote having your pet spade or neutered. I could name about 10 to 15 NBA players who would be better choices for that job.
Then there's Jimmy Kimmel who obviously isn't taking heed of what Dave did. He's supposedly dating the head writer on his show.
No truth to the rumor that Mike Dubray is in training for the US Olympic Beer Pong team.
I would love to see a new "Vacation" movie with a grown up Rusty on a trip with his family paying a visit to see Clark and Ellen at their retirement community home somewhere in Arizona and then going to Wally World. No cousin Eddie please.
Finally, the place in South Carolina where my folks may build a home made the paper Saturday. It was an alligator attack on one of the golf courses. When I was there last month, I saw a gator on the course that I played. I read an article that stated people actually feed these reptiles. What are these folks thinking? I'm sorry, but this is not a case where your little kid says, "Daddy, can pet the kitty or puppy please?" Where was the late Steve Irwin when we needed him?...Safe from gators, Leccese out.
