2009 Wildcard Weekend Preview
I think this is the first time in NFL history that the first weekend of the playoffs will feature 3 repeat matchups from the last weekend of the regular season. I’m not sure what that means, but there you have it.
Eagles/Cowboys – Well, there’s been the usual Philly sports media tempest in a teapot about McNabb’s recent comments. What did he say that was so horrible? Quoting Philly.com:
Hit It and Quit It, Fins Fashion
Miami 22 – New England 21. Feels so good to see it in print!
I have to admit, even though I had cast my cares aside and begged Santa for help, I didn’t have a lot of faith that I’d have a happy ending. When the Dolphins quickly fell down 14-0, I was ready to kiss the season goodbye. Same old Dolphins. Same old Patriots. Right? Well, I’m happy to say that I was wrong! We WON! All is right with the world. At least until next Sunday…
Week 13, Miami vs. New England: I Believe in Santa Claus!
This game was a big one! Anticipation was killing me. I was beginning to lose hope. Desperation was setting in. Saturday, inspired by the magic of the first snow of winter here in Virginia, I felt like a little girl again. And who do little girls share their wishes and dreams with? Santa Claus. So I sat down and wrote a letter to Santa. Thankfully, Santa is high-tech and digital now, so he got my letter and went straight to work. Thank you, Santa Claus, for the most wonderful early-Christmas gift a girl could ask for! How sweet it is to beat New England!
Saints Chick Chow: Clammed Up Patsy Chowder
Oh, here it is…the game that everyone has been waiting for…the one that will determine if the Saints are for real or if they are those ole lovable losers who haven’t played a “real” team yet this season. While the media’s attention to this game has bordered on nauseating, I must admit that I do love this showdown. Both teams will face a huge challenge Monday night.
The Saints defense will have a challenge ahead of them when they face off with Tom Brady, Wes Welker, and Randy Moss. Our banged-up secondary is holding their own, despite the injuries, and we recently signed Pro Bowl cornerbacks Chris McAlister and Mike Mckenzie who both may see some time this Monday night.
Saints Chick Chow: Buc’in Broccoli Soup
This turnover bug of Drew’s has me worried. Is H1N1 catching up to him? Does he have a fever? Is there enough Vitamin C in his system?
I pondered these questions last week as I reviewed tape from the Saints game with the Rams. In my 37 years on this planet, I’ve never been as angry with a Saints victory as I was with this one. In fact, I don’t ever recall being upset with a Saints victory. Hell, I would beam from ear to ear when they won a preseason game, much less one during the regular season.
