January football

Congrats to the Alabama Crimson Tide for their national championship win over Texas. I think this one will always have a very BIG asterisk by it since Texas QB Colt McCoy was knocked out after 5 plays. I really think this game may have had a different result with their leader in there after the start they got off to and the way that Texas defense played. For what it's worth, Texas appears to be in good hands with their freshman QB Gilbert.

The "second season" begins in the NFL saturday with wild card weekend. I'm really not that excited about these matchups, but hopefully there will be some good games. The big thing to watch for in the playoffs will be how the long layoff for the Colts and Saints will effect them after finishing the season on losing streaks. Neither team has had a meaningful game in a month. BTW, SHAME on the Colts for pulling the starters vs the Jets. That was a big slap in the face to NFL fans and all of the NFL teams who would LOVE to have a shot at a perfect season. I will also say...watch out Colts for this red-hot Chargers team! I can see a Chargers win in that one.
