Maybe It's the Cold Weather . . . But . . .

Maybe It's the Cold Weather . . . or old age . . . But . . . I'm not enjoying sports as much as I used to . . .

Bret Favre is Old News -- Just in case you hadn't noticed . . . The Lions and Vikings have the same won/lost record. Both teams are 2-5.

And Sunday, we got to watch both teams back-to-back on Fox TV.

IN A NUTSHELL -- It's definitely more fun to watch the Lions' youngsters (Stafford & Suh) than to watch the weary, fading and no longer entertaining Bret Favre. It's as if we're waiting for him to die, like an old gladiator, on the field of play. We did get to see him carted off the field this week. Maybe next week . . .

I've been a Bret Favre fan for a long time. But I am so tired of conversations about body parts -- his foot, his elbow, his penis and now his 10-inch chin laceration . . . that it's time to go cold turkey on Favre.

Bret Favre . . . You're Dead To Me!

I don't know who's fault it is that Declan Sullivan died while filming a Notre Dame football practice. I hate it that someone from Fox Sports is calling for coach Brian Kelly's head because of the tragedy.

I hate the feeding frenzy that has become "SPORTS NEWS."

Oh Yeah . . . Hey Kelly . . . Kick the damn field goal.

I am sick and tired of talking about the BCS (Bowl Championship Series). There needs to be a playoff. The Big Ten Conference added a team this year so they can have two divisions and a season end tournament. WHY? So they can send their winner to the end of year tournament.

When we finally get all the "good teams" into the top eight conferences (I'm talking about Notre Dame, Boise and TCU), then the play-off system will be possible. Until then, it's just blah, blah, blah.

Believe it or not . . . The World Series is still the World Series -- Even if the Yankees are not playing the Philadelphia Phillies. But why in God's name are they playing in November? Can you imagine if the upcoming November games were being played in Philadelphia, New York or Minneapolis, Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr . . .

Someday, do you think there will be a "Mister November?"

LeBron? Who cares?

Red Wings? (Not Yet)

Me Thinks -- It's going to be a long, cold winter. . .
