2. You cannot convince me that Tim Tebow is an NFL QB. I don't think that he has the footwork, touch or understands how to move through his progressions. His biggest "asset".. his legs will not worry NFL defenses at all. He's not explosive and could not take that pounding day in and day out. He's a good story, but not a legit prospect.
3. Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball will not lose a home game this year.. with or without Jon Leuer. Trevon Hughes and Jordan Taylor can play. Somehow, they've managed to win 2 games they've had no business winning because of mad offensive struggles (Michigan and Penn State). A win is a win.. especially without your leading scorer.

Lets not get lost on minor details, because I am happy to announce and to post my link from MDA to help raise them money and awareness to fight this terrible disease by running the Green Bay Marathon on May 16, 2010. If you just click right HERE you will be taken to my donation page provided by MDA. There you can see a few different things, including an amazing picture of my blazing speed on the road way at the Green Bay Half-Marathon in 2009. (Don't worry, I plan on changing this to a picture of Kelton and myself. It's a solid picture that I took one day in his photography course while he was taking a test.) More important than that amazing running form, however, is the huge flashing red box that says, "Click Here." Clicking on that will take you to the donation page for MDA and tell you a little about the cost:

I had to take off work today to get an MRI and then get a follow up on it, and I wanted to say a few things about it.
1. St. John's Hosptial is too big. I had no idea where I was going and how to get out, I had to ask some random lady how to even find the main entrance. I felt like a board game piece in the game Mouse Trap.
2. When I put on the blue patient clothes to get my MRI, I was glad there was a mirror in there. I came to realize either I am on the same level as the doctor's from Grey's Anatomy in the looks department or just about anybody can look good in the blue hospital clothes. Personally, I think it's a little more the first option than the second, but you be the judge.
3. If you're afraid of an MRI machine, you've got problems. Talk about relaxation, if I didn't sound like I was at an airport or have Dave and Deena from 103.7 blasting in my ears, I bet I woulda fallen asleep. And for the record 103.7 do we really need to listen to people call in about first baby words or if you remember your son/daughter's first words? I'm sure 98% of them were: DADA or MAMA. If it were something like pneumonoultramicroscopicsilic ovolcanoconiosis, then yeah, I might be impressed. By the way, according to wikipedia that is the longest word in an English dictionary.

I talked to a trainer, and I think I am going to call and try to set up an appointment to get my knee looked at Thursday or early next week. I hope everything works out okay. The training would need to start soon and I need to be confident going into this. I want to do it was fast as possible and I want to be able to do it to help out MDA.

Onto a few of my training thoughts though. The first concern is naturally health; my knee has been hit or miss since this summer with some chondro menatia (spelling) and maybe tendinitis and who knows what else. I was supposed to have a PT look at it today, but I didn't have to go to work so I didn't see him. I'm waiting to hear back before I really decide to bust tail or how this training is going to go. Naturally, I did the next best thing today. Sit ups and push ups. Now, I've been trying to do these for years; never got consistent at them. I've made 13 New Year's Resolutions and a promise to myself every single morning that today will be the day I start doing them before and after school. Wrong. I've never managed to do them, still... but today, I had the day off and I ripped off 100 of each. It's not a big amount right now, and I'm not pretending that it is, but for somebody that is trying to get into a flow of doing them.. 100 of each before 4 is a big deal. The tricky part is doing another 100 before bed tonight and then gradually working my way up.

It's happened again; we're doing another season review and just in time.. a certain team that was once 1-9 and down in the dumps rattled off their 2nd straight win. No big deal.
Joe vs. Dowden
--These two middle ranked teams are neck and neck. T-Raz openly admits to not liking Joe, and since he's never even met him Honest Abe Lincoln's quote, "I don't like that man.. I think I'll have to get to know him better," must not have entered T-Raz's brain. Ever. He's a man of hatred, plain and simple. Sadly, for him, Tim Tebow's record setting day wasn't enough to put him over the top as Joe rode an Alabama defense to victory. Pretty pathetic for T-Raz considering the fact that Joe got 0 points from his QB. It looks like another sad season in T-Raz land; I guess he knows what it feels like to be a kid living in the ghetto with Christmas around the corner... he's down and out.

There is a first time for everything; people typically say this after something downright amazing happens. I've also heard of this being used on pick up lines many times while dominating the drinking establishments in Madison, Wisconsin. Typically; your Average Joe with a nobody name and even less game will launch it out there to a fine East Coast hunny. "I don't leave the bars without my friends," or "I don't like guys that play World of Warcraft for 12 hours straight." Person X that just got dissed/rejected gets a smirk and offers, "Well, there's a first time for everything." Don't lie; you've used it yourself or know somebody that has. This is one of those cases; something amazing happens. I'm not getting rejected, but I am posting a rewind from the past week.. yes, ladies and gentlemen. Much like when communist Russia fell.. The Buccaneers got an NFL win this season.. there is a 1st time for everything!

The worst part about the entire thing is that DeAngelo Hall gets in a fight on a sideline and is fined... NOTHING. There was a big rucus with Falcolns HC Mike Smith during the Redskins/Falcolns game and as far as I know Ochocinco's fine exceeded any fined handed out for a FIGHT during a game!
I'm not saying you shouldn't fine Ochocinco, but I am saying that a fake bribe of an official is worth a lot less than somebody fighting. How is fighting more acceptable than this? Anybody? Anybody?

It's been awhile, a loooonnnnng while. Lots has changed since the last time I posted on here. In fact, the NBA season kicked off; The Office started up again, The Community is taking my Thursdays by storm. Some things haven't changed: The Pac-10 is overrated, my team can't win, and I'm still the man. All in all; I guess people have missed my thoughts and were begging for more.
I was going to do a fantasy football preview for the week, until I realized I deleted last weeks email with the records and opponents for the week, so there is no real update. I have the rankings posted below, so you can check those out. That's about it. I do, however, want to clear the air on a few things. Certain members of this prestigious league that has been around for 3 years now (we're ahead of our time, no big deal) are starting to take this a little too seriously. We have an interesting array of characters here.
