An A** Kicking

I tend to root for some teams when I watch, not sure why I pick some teams. I often can watch a football or basketball game and choose sides. It’s something I do, even when my favorite teams (Denver teams, Yankees, Lakers, Cowboys) aren’t playing. It’s only rarely that I actually root against teams, but it seems that I tend to do that  for the Boston teams. Not sure why, I like Boston as a town, but I’ve always looked for the Patriots, Celtics, and Red Sox to lose.

So despite being tired, I enjoyed the a**-kicking that the Saints handed out to the Patriots last night. I stayed up, only killing the game when Hoyle came out for his second series. Five minutes left and I couldn’t believe that Brady came out of the game.

But I’m not completely surprised. I don’t think he has a lot of class as a player, he appears to be a little whiny, and while not a quitter, quitting on that game is something that doesn’t surprise me.

It’s kind of cool to have two 11-0 teams, and I’m rooting for them to meet in the Super Bowl. I’m not sure either the Broncos or Cowboys can challenge, so it’s nice to think about having a  pair of undefeated teams meeting each other.

Hi Steve. Saw a re-tweet from you via @VidasM and decided to drop in here. Give me a ping if you're still interested in a writer for PowerPivot. And check out my blog at http://powerpivotpro.com - we share the sports interest, as well as running (although I am not as devoted as you).
