Heights had Wyatt 4th-and-6 close to midfield with four minutes left to go in the game.  Naturally, Heights not only lets ’em get the first down, they let ’em get the touchdown as well
Time for Duke Christian to go.
…
Ohio raced to a 28-0 halftime lead and didn’t look back.  Gotta feel for Turner Gill this year. (UBuffalo lost and didn’t cover, so it counts.)
…
Adrian Peterson picked a good time to go out with an injury, as Colorado was simply no match for OU at home.  Allen Patrick was a workhorse with 110 yards on 35 carries.  Paul Thompson was 17 of 26 passing for 105 yards and a touchdown.
…
Another week, another home squash for the LSU Tigers.  Russell was 15 of 19 for 210 yards and 2 TDs, one of which went to Dwayne Bowe, tying the LSU record for career touchdown catches and surpassing 2,000 yards for his career.
Bo Pelini’s defense hasn’t allowed a touchdown in nine quarters, which should raise the eyebrows of any collegiate ADs who might be looking for head coaches for next season (*coughTCUcough*)
…
Oh, did I say TCU?  They didn’t so much earn a victory as it was handed to them on a platter.
Trailing 7-3 midway through the second quarter, the Black Knights suddenly couldn’t hang onto the football.  Boom – quarterback David Pevoto was intercepted deep in his end of the field, leading to a TCU touchdown.  Boom – on the next possesion, Pevoto fumbled, setting up another Frog score.  Boom – Pevoto got pick-sixed by Ervin Dickerson.  Boom – Army fumbled the ensuing kickoff, leading to a Tadpole field goal.
From there, TCU played prevent the rest of the way, and while Army scored a couple of 2nd-half touchdowns, one courtesy of a Marcus Jackson fumble, the Cadets never seriously threatened.
…
Drew Bledsoe has added a new nickname:  “The Crybaby”.  He called Parcells’ decision to replace him in the second half with Tony Romo “a bad decision”.
No worse, one imagines, than the pickoff he threw on the goal line as the Cowboys were marching for a go-ahead touchdown towards the end of the first half, thus wasting a turnover on a rare (nowadays) Tiki Barber fumble.
And while you expect that from de facto  rookie quarterbacks (Romo threw three last night, one of them a pick-six of 95 yards that put the kibosh on any comeback hopes), you tend to think a 14-year NFL veteran like Drew “The Crybaby” Bledsoe supposedly knows better.  Particularly when the play was designed to go to the other side of the field to Widdle Terri Owens.
Whatever, that pick provided all the excuse the Noo Joisey Con Man needed to pull the trigger on the most anticipated Cowboy move of the last few years.
And for all the shitheads who are ripping on Romo right now for throwing those three picks, I’ve this to say:  Romo will get better.  Bledsoe won’t.  Romo may or may not take this franchise anywhere – but I guaran-damn-fuckin’-tee you that Bledsoe won’t.  Therefore, kindly take your love for Bledsoe, turn it sideways and shove it up your asses.
Other than that, the Giants kicked the Cowgirls’ butts up & down the field.  Tiki got 114 yards against what was basically a Swiss-cheese run defense.  Plaxico Burress & Jeremy Shockey caught TD passes, and the Cowgirls just bent over and grabbed the ankles for them.
Cases in point:  Shockey, after scoring, fired the ball into the end-zone wall.  Brandon Jacobs, after scoring a TD of his own, pulled an Owens and showboated on the star in the end zone.  And after every sack of a Dallas QB, the Giant who got the sack would “celebrate” by shooting an air-jumper, NBA-style.
Good thing I don’t coach the Cowboys.  Several  Giants would be nursing ACL ruptures today if I were, and to Hell™ with fines or suspensions.  Y’wanna win a game in my house, fine.  Y’wanna try and rub it in my face, I’m gonna take your fucking knees out.
But that’s not Bill Parcells.  He lacks the passion to take the offense necessary to prevent that from happening in his house – which is why this franchise is .500 since he took over, and why it’s not likely to go anywhere anytime soon.
Last week:  3-3.  Overall:  24-17.
The PFW will return Friday for our best shot at one this year.  I’ll explain why then.
