hooray season ending football

Footballs closing weekend is now upon me. I don't really think of myself as a football fan. I hear all the internets talking about fantasy football and tv providers talking about watching every game and I realize that is not for me. Generally after the Bengals game is over, I don't watch any other football. I may watch scores for other teams in the division, but that is about it for outside of bengals football. I do like watching college football better, but that has more to do with me following a team that is competitive, in The Ohio State Buckeyes. If I had to follow a small school or a MAC school, I wouldn't be near as interested in college football.

I also did some research for a Peyton Manning criticism. If the guy is so great, why did he lose the heisman to a defensive player? I looked up heisman winners, and the only time a defensive player has won was when Peyton was a senior. Some stud he must have been to make the committee look at the other side of the ball. Carson may barely be limping in the playoffs, but at least he was good enough to not lose a heisman to a defensive guy.

It has also been nearly two years since the tree in my front yard fell on my house. I remember we were getting a heck of a storm and both me and the ex were laying in bed sick. We heard a big crack or some variation of a loud noise and just waved it off. I got a call to sub that morning and managed to get ready and everything without realizing the tree had fell. I went to leave out my kitchen door and it wouldn't open because of all the branches pressing against it. I had to go out my front door and seen that the tree was blocking my driveway and I wouldn't be going any where for a while. The electric was also out so I called the electric company and they cleaned up some enough so that I could get my truck out. Luckily the only damage done was to the house and my dad was able to clean up most of the mess from the tree. Some of my porch was damaged, but my landlords insurance covered the repair cost. I still have some of the firewood around from the part of the tree that fell.

  1. Who cares if he lost it? I bet he doesn't care if some guy from Hillsboro is commenting on his football skills.. he's a great player and making millions. I wouldn't care if people were talking about me if I had that kind of talent (and money).
