Monday night musings…

December 10, 2007

Despite all the recent controversy many Californians in fact would be thrilled to support a Mormon leader, especially in the Bay Area.  Unfortunately, Steve Young is going to stay retired from the 49ers.

While Tim Tebow profusely thanked God, his family and friends after receiving his Heisman, he forget one important thing. To thank the NCAA, for creating the rule that says a player cannot be drafted until three years out of high school.  Which means at
least for this year, he cannot be drafted by the  Dolphins.

Scary thought, in twelve games, Heisman runner-up Darren McFadden has scored sixteen touchdowns.  In thirteen games, the San Francisco 49ers have scored eighteen.

In settling the sexual harrassment case involving a former Knicks employee.  Madison Square Garden issued a statement saying they felt the outcome was a “travesty of justice” but that it “is time for us to move on and put this issue behind us.”   So now the
Knicks can get back to normal – being a travesty of an NBA team. 

Mark your calendars for December 23

That’s the day the New England Patriots, with their perfect record and the league’s best offense, take on the Miami Dolphins, with THEIR perfect record, and the league’s worst defense.

Actually, at this point, the only thing that could stop the Patriots is if they were somehow ranked number one or two in the BCS.

Ann Romney, wife of presidential candidate Mitt, said this in Las Vegas about his speech on religion last week.

“People were saying, ‘It was like George Washington,’  ‘It was the Gettysburg Address.’ ”   Leaving aside the obvious questions about hyberbole and accuracy,  did she really expect anyone in Vegas to remember either of those examples?  Except maybe Wayne Newton.
