A Few Thoughts

I have to say that the Kansas City Chiefs Coach made one gutsy call this weekend when he decided to go for the win instead of the tie. Coaches are not the most daring people when it comes to making these types of decisions, because there is so much on the line. That is what makes that call so refreshing, he had the nerve to take the chance. In doing this he showed the utmost confidence in his players. Loved the call!

The Tennessee Volunteers came into the season ranked number 3 in the country and have literally fallen off the face of the BCS map. While they may have top 5 talent, you can tell that there is real problems there, I noticed this when I watched the Phil Fulmer Coach's Show. While watching this I noticed how dejected that Coach Fulmer was while he was watching the tape of the Notre Dame game. He was making comments under his breath and he sounded really depressed when he spoke. I wonder if the season wasn't determined before it ever started, due to the off the field issues that surrounded the team?

The BCS dodge a major controversy this weekend with Virginia Tech losing to Miami. Lets hope that Alabama wins out so they can throw a monkey wrench into the miss that is the BCS.

Lets hope that the media's focus on the Eagles and Terrell Owens will be over soon. This relationship has been shady from the outset. How can a guy get traded to the Ravens, refuse to go and then go to the team that he wanted to? We can't blame TO for his behavior because it has been accepted by the NFL and fans for years. People laughed at his antics, when the teams he played on were winning, but when things start to go bad TO is just fuel for the fire. I respect the Eagles for the stand that they are taking because he was an integral part of their passing game. What is interesting from this is that it shows you how much damage one person can do to a team. While I have always hated the Eagles I now will root for them, except when they play Dallas.
