It’s tough to wrap up this past weekend in the sports world. There was a ton going on and some of that business is still unfinished. What did we learn so far?
- NFL upsets continued yesterday and into the night including; Chiefs over Broncos, Tampa over Green in the battle of the Bay’s, Washington over Dallas and the Bears beating the Eagles.
- It was also a weekend filled with dangerous hits and serious injuries.
- Matt Bryant lead his team to a big win after enduring a tragic week.
- Ninety-one points were scored in the Meadowlands on Sunday, including 6 TD’s from Favre.
- The last weekend in baseball saw some crazy races that came right down to the wire.
- The Mets collapse again and no one gets fired. The Brewers hang on to win the Wild Card after firing Yost.
- The White Sox play the Tigers today in a make-up game. If the Sox win then they will face the Twins in a one game playoff.
- Linehan is out and Haslett is in.
- The Saints are back. That offense is great just like last year but will the defense be enough to hold teams under 30 points consistently. Either way it will be fun to watch.
- The Browns and Bengals back to their old selves. Ugly stuff, Ohio.
- The NFC East is unearthly good while the AFC West is proving to be ungodly inconstant.
- Go White Sox! I want to see this one game playoff again this year. This could be a great post season for baseball. It seems really wide open overall.
- No more baseball in Shea or Yankee Stadium. No post season for either. What a way to go out for the Mets… again.
- Jay Cutler is the next Brett Favre, just uglier and more diabetic. Too soon?
- All three of my college football picks went terribly wrong. Shocking (Those being Purdue +1, UNLV -4 and Fresno State -7.5). In my defense, I was brought into the Boilermaker’s bet by a friend.
- It should be another great week in the sports world! Looking forward to it!
And that’s what we learned.
