SUPER BOWL

Posted by Bingham On December - 30 - 2008 1 COMMENT

I JUST FEEL THE NEED TO GO ON RECORD.  I HAD THE JOY OF WINNING MY FANTASY FOOTBALL LEAGUE THIS YEAR SO I FEEL DRUNK WITH NFL POWER.  I HAVE NO FACTS OR NO REAL REASONS FOR MAKING A SUPER BOWL PREDICTION SO I WON’T, BUT I WILL TAKE THE TIME TO TAKE A SHOT AT WHO I FEEL WILL BE IN THE FINAL GAME OF THE NFL SEASON.   BASED ON THE WAY IT BREAKS OUT I LOVE THE STEELERS.  I DON’T SEE ANYONE BEATING THEM AT HOME AND I THINK THERE IS A STRONG CHANCE THEY GET BOTH GAMES AT HOME.  EVEN IF THEY DO HAVE TO GO ON THE ROAD AND PLAY THE TITANS I THINK THEY WILL GET IT DONE THIS TIME.   THE NFC FAVORITE IS THE GIANTS, BUT I LOVE THE PANTHERS.  THEY SEEM TO HAVE THE STRONGEST RUNNING GAME GOING AND THE BEST WEAPON IN FOOTBALL IN STEVE SMITH.  PANTHERS AND STEELERS WHAT THE HECK.. HAD TO GET THAT OFF MY CHEST

09 Check List and beyond

I’m a simple sports fan with some simple sports needs. So here are some things I would like to see happen in 2009 or in the near future.

1. I want Dustin Pedroia to continue to be Dustin Pedroia, in this day and age of size speed and projections he defies the odds. The portrait of grinder and over achiever, Pedroia embodies everything that fueled my love for sports.

2. I want the Hawks to lay the hammer on the Gamecocks. I was sick to my stomach when Iowa lost to Pitt, and stood silent as I watched them lose to Northwestern at home. Not because I thought the Hawkeyes were going to win a national championship, but because the wins were not matching what my eyes were seeing. Up front on both sides of the ball, this team has unity. The wins did start to stack up, but I want more. The heart of Iowa boys anchor this talented team, that I would like to see put an exclamation point on a solid year.  I rank this as one of my favorite Hawk teams to take the field. A repeat of the GOPHER Drubbing would be fine.

3. Get Brandon Myers the football early and often in the Outback Bowl.

4. Hey Seahawks, draft

 

Shonn Greene.

5. I hope the Yankees Suck

6. Trojans to win it all.

7 I want the Bulldogs back in the NCAA Tourney. I believe they have what it takes to get back into the show and relish the chance to avenge their wild first round loss last season.

8. I want to see every Tom Brands Press Conference.

9. I want Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Manny to Play on the same team.

10. I want Casey Blake on my fantasy team.

11. Ed Thomas. I’ve learned so much from coaches around the state of Iowa. I only hope I can give the athletes I work with a smidge of the Character I have witnessed from so many like coach Thomas.

12. A Celtics repeat would be nice.

13. I hope to finish higher in my Fantasy Baseball League than John Walters.

14. I want Paul Rhoads to win more games next year than Gene did in his Two.

15. A healthy Big Papi to give us some October Action

16. I want someone to beat the Giants. Don’t hate em.. Just get rid of them don’t need to see a repeat.

17 A Hole in one would be nice.. Maybe a the Sportsblanket Golf outing in July.. Just Saying??

18 I want to continue to be able to cover my passion of Iowa High School football by working the BLITZ and Blitz Extra

19. To repeat as the champion of my NFFFL Fantasy Football League. Nothing makes the Holiday Season so Sweet.
