BOREBALL 1/23/6

OK sports fan this is it….. We are down to several teams. Tom and Dave’s team, the Bears, are history. Fred and Ken’s team, the Packers are history. Scott’s team, the Chargers, are history.
So football has two events left for the year. One is the big game where in an oh-so run plays another and they call it SUPER.

Then there is NFL draft where a bunch of junior class drop outs are paid a lot of money to sit on a bench and bring hope to other oh so run towns like New Orleans, Miami, Cleveland and Detroit. The excitement is gone even from college bowl games for they will not be played till next year. What’s left?

Two things can occupy a blank late winter mind, the start of Baseball and NASCAR. In the
reality of things baseball is about as exciting as watching paint drying. Ya, The White Sox won the series, Ya for Tom, but boreball’s only saving grace is that went I need a good nap I turn a game on and it’s lights out.

The only other thing to do on a dull week end day is to either spit wood or watch the Speed Channel. I have a brother that can’t fall asleep without the sound of racing engines. But car racing is like the NBA, pro basketball. You only have to watch the last five minutes to see whose top cheese, please pass the crackers. Beers are optional. How about a good red merlot joint,
