Sports tonight

Well tonight was a great night in sports. College Football is back in action with the Gamecocks from South Carolina defeating the Nc State Wolfpack 7-3. game was filled with very little offense, You could say it was because of the great defenses or you could just say both offenses sucked. Though it was good for the SEc with a win over an ACC team neither team looked very good. Spurrier improved to 19-1 in openers.
As For the Tampa Bay Rays was this the first of only a few nails to be put i their coffin. Now out 6 games with 25 to go it looks as if the Rays should start planning on how to keep the players around for next year. Also they should try and figure out how they are going to get more than 16000 people into their seats for a game the rest of the year. I will be blogging about possible solutions to this later. They have to come up with something better than what they are doing and what we are giving them.
Then the Boise State and Oregon game tonight which currently looks like Boise State is going to win and that means another Non BCS school will think that they are worthy to be in Championship game because they beat someone at beginning of season who was ranked. Hopefully they falter at some point during season. Or maybe not and we can have an all Blue and Orange Championship game. I think that Florida will be there. The other team is still up in the air.
As for Oregon this just shows how weak the PAC 10 is every year. The most overrated conference. They do have one of the best teams in the nation every year. I will give that to them. USC is probably one of the 2 best teams of the past 7 or 8 years. But I will go into this a little more as the season wears on.
No reason to talk about the NFL preseason who really cares about the final preseason week anyway. Oh yeah thats right the NFL did make a decision on when MIke Vick will be able to play and how many dog lovers are waiting for week 3 to throw dog collars at Vick. At least first game is not in Cleveland. He might get attacked. Well hopefully all goes well and he has learned his errors. He has done his time and does deserve to have a job like everyone else. Problem is his job pays 10 times what everyone else who has served time makes.
Well well well. I ended this post a little too early as there was more excitement after Boise State Oregon game. Seems like Oregon a Oregon player did not play hard enough during game and had some energy left. So much that he decided that it would be a good idea to punch a Boise State player in the mouth on the field after the game. Now this shows me, not that the school or team is bad but this individual player is bad. He should be taught a lesson and I am sure he will be. I am not saying I think he should be kicked off team. He made a mistake and it was when he was at his lowest. His team lost and he was ashamed and people were screaming at him. Now the wrong thing to do would be to kick this guy out of school. This would only make it harder for him to learn from his errors and possibly grow to be a better man. As for Boise state player you are an idiot. First thing I was ever taught when I played football was NEVER EVER take your helmet off. Just goes to show you Boise St. is not making the Scholar Athlete list this year.
