Monday Mourning: Week Three
Week 3: The "Ted Kennedy-3-weeks-sober" Edition
Monday Mourning Week Three: The Ted Kennedy 3 weeks sober...and counting Edition.
The biggest surprise after the first three weeks of the NFL season: The Kansas City Chiefs. They've played so poorly, I'm shocked they didn't find a way to go 0-5 in three weeks.
Fallout from Chad Ochocinco's "Lambeau Leap" last Sunday in Green Bay where he conveniently leapt into the only two Bengals fans in the crowd. Ochocinco paid those fans to sit there. I love it!
This is my favorite play of the week, from the bayou: LSU stud safety (and pitcher on the school's National Championship baseball team) Chad Jones' 93-yard punt return against Mississippi State. Although Jones' run is amazing, the part I love is the one man convoy that leads him in -- sophomore cornerback Patrick Peterson. He's number 7 on the video... check it.
In the college game, ANOTHER Top 5 team fell this week. This week's victim was the probably-overrated Rebels of Ole Miss, who dropped a Thursday-night contest at South Carolina. Following the game, the South Carolina players went into the student section to celebrate with their fans... Legarrette Blount was nowhere to be seen....
...meanwhile, in the Ole Miss locker room, reporters hounded Ole Miss QB, Jevan Snead, for comments about his team's loss. To paraphrase a couple of his thoughts, he told reporters that losing a game was a relief because now his team could just go back to playing football. The next day, the kid was crucified in the media for "not being a competitor" and "not caring," which are ridiculous claims, made by analysts and talk show hosts, who are nearly as bad as the people who call in to National Public Radio thinking that they have a unique opinion. Snead's comments were reactionary, not indicative of him as a signal caller. These hacks were looking for filler. Leave him alone. No one says everything right...
...except for Tom Brady. He knocked-up Bridget Moynahan and is married to Giselle...he says everything right.
...and while we're at it, leave Terrell Owens alone, too. T.O., whose 185 consecutive game streak ended on Sunday in a 27-17 loss to the Saints. T.O. repeatedly answered with, "I'm just going with the plays that are called," when asked what he thought about the Buffalo play-calling and about the frequency of balls thrown his way. What else was he supposed to say? ... with the Bills at 1-2, Owens having few looks and fewer catches (less than 100 yards receiving in three games), and the entire NFL world seemingly waiting for him to implode, T.O.'s future in Buffalo is looking about as shaky as a game of Jenga between Muhammed Ali and Michael J. Fox.
Doug Lesmerises of the Cleveland Plain Dealer received a bevy of attention this week for his voting style in the AP College Football poll, ranking the likes of Houston at 3 and Cincinnati at 4, ahead of defending national champion Florida. Lesmerises motto of "results, results, results," is faulty at best and is a classic example of someone feeling like the world needs to hear their sh!tty opinions. It's like people who say that Celine Dionne is hot.
In the "they are (not) who we thought they were!" Denny Green-tribute segment, America may have to wait just a little bit longer for "The U" to get they're swagger back. Miami went into Blacksburg, Virginia and got blasted by Virginia Tech, 31-7 and in the battle of the hippies, Oregon unloaded on #6 Cal, 42-3.
In Lawrence, Kansas, Jayhawk-on-Jayhawk violence hit a frenzied pitch last week when the school's football and basketball teams were involved in a series of fisticuffs, the apex of which was a melee that featured, allegedly, as many as 100 people. In Lawrence's version of The Outsiders, Todd Reesing and Kerry Meier are definitely playing the roles of Soda Pop and Pony Boy. In Lawrence, the footballers will never be the basketball team.
...when KU hoops coach Bill Self and football coach Mark Mangino met to discuss their teams' recent interactions, Mangino allegedly wore a XXXXXXXXXL that said "Guns Don't Kill People. I Eat People."
