break time

...so since they took away my internet privileges at work i only get to surf the web on my breaks or lunch...it's been a bummer, but at least i don't end up reading all the depressing news stories about stuff going on in the world. today i came across this article on espn about vince young (a favorite football player of mine) surprising steve mcnair's sons and showing up to take them to their school's "dear dads breakfast." steve mcnair was a mentor to vince young since his childhood, being a sort of father figure that vy didn't have. mcnair was murdered back on the 4th of july...i thought it was pretty classy of vince to show up for those boys. it was a nice lil read on my break and just thought i'd share it. i really enjoy it when i see favorite athletes of mine making headlines for good reasons. like big dave donating 9 million to start up a school for underprivileged youth...just a class act.good times.

how bout them niners!!!

frank gore had a rough day rushing the ball...didn't help my fantasy team one bit...but he did score the game-winning touchdown to start off mike singletary's first full season as head coach with a victory. too bad i don't even get a highlight here in texas. glad to see we got the victory though. good times.

super saturday

well today was a good day. woke up...bought a car...came home...ate some delicious chimichangas i remembered from my childhood and found at costco, watched byu roll to a 54-3 victory...i'm really liking how physical byu's defense has been. they're swarming to the ball and hitting people in the mouth...i've not seen such a physical team from byu...it's kinda fun.

then of course colt mccoy and the horns cruised to another victory...they started off kinda sloppy, but went on to win 41-10....you're gonna need to put a lot more than a hand on colt's shoulder to slow him down.
then after watching the thrilling end to michigan-notre dame, chrissy whipped up some delicious pepper jack potato soup and rolls....followed by some grasshopper pie and usc-ohio st.  saturdays in the fall are my favorite...such good times.

i love saturdays

college football is awesome! there is seriously no excuse to be bored on a saturday in the fall. we had the fam over for fajeets and a tailgate/birthday party and watched byu upset o-who. it was so much fun to watch them win...byu's first win against a top 10 team since 1990....and i always love seeing o-who lose. fun to see byu be so physical...they even knocked sam bradford outta the game. 

...and of course colt and the horns roughed up louisiana-monroe 59-20....a great start to the season...good times.
