Are You Ready for Some Football?

Football, yes. This snooze of a game, hell no. Sure the contest features the "defending Super Bowl champions" and another top AFC team. But the over/under says it all......35 points. The number is due to offensive ineptitude, not stellar defenses. The Steelers are just not that good, and with the help of the zebras, racked up their second Lombardi Trophy in four years. That said, they also locked down the top two slots in the Worst Super Bowl Champions of All Time list. The win over Seattle was downright rigged, and the win over Arizona was heavily suspect. If you don't believe me, let's go to the tapes......

I'm sure Big Ben Rapelisberger will have another night that the announcers describe as HUGE. Only a gamer of his magnitude could to 18/29 for 185 yards, 1 TD and 2 INT. Enormous performances like this are the norm for him.....I seriously heard his name mentioned along with Joe Montana's today on sports radio. Puke. The most entertaining part of the night will be watching Vince Young sulk on the sidelines, as he realizes he can't beat out a 37-year-old balding drunk with a gray beard. You'd have to say Jeff Fisher is the NFL's best coach, but that's still not enough to make me watch.

You could wager on the game, but since neither team can score, how can you make a confident prediction? I'll settle for GT vs. Clemson, or maybe something in my pile of Netflix.....wake me when it's Saturday.....

Editor's Note: PYB apologizes for the egregious oversight. We forgot to mention what a great pump-faker Rapelisberger is. Due to the fact that the Steeler scouldn't score, Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth belabored this point for 2.5 quarters last nite. Then, the World-Wide Leaders at ESPN pick up on it for Sportscenter. God forbid they show the public some baseball game highlights instead of a 10-minute pump-fake montage. Our apologies.
