If I had a gun, I'd be dead!


This may be the most grim weekend of sports for the tristate area in recent past. Saturday was a complete debacle starting with UC getting stomped by UConn. If you're a UK fan it didn't get much better (well worse actually), and Saturday knight was wrapped up with maybe the worst college football game of all time (OSU vs. Penn State). Let me just take this opportunity that my yearly endorsement has gone to Penn State. This ensures a few things (mainly that they will not win a game for the rest of the year) for the Lions, but my main priority is sending Joe Pa out (hopefully) with a National Championship. Dude deserves it, he's like 105 years old and is the lowest paid major college football coach in the nation. Then on to Sunday, I'm not gonna spend much time here other than to say that if you are a Bengals fan your weekend got worse!
The hilight of my Sunday was watching the Red Zone Channel on the Sunday Ticket for 4 hours of goodness! That may be my favoritest channel ever! If you wanna watch endless (sometimes too much to follow) action WITHOUT COMMERCIALS then this is your channel. this channel alone makes me wish I didn't have Bengals tickets. Open invitation to anyone (both of you) reading this, if you want your life changed come and watch the Red Zone Channel during the 1 o'clock games.
My final thing is kind of a poll question. In fact I will make it a poll question. With myself and the wife going to the Notre Dame - Pitt game this weekend is it ok for me to wear my Brady Quinn jersey to the game? My first point is that it does meet my first requirement for wearing a jersey in that it is authentic. If you know me then you know I'm not "UnAuthentic Jersey Guy!" Second he is kind of a recent legend at ND, it's not like I have a Rick Meirer jersey from when I was 12 that I want to wear! Brady Quinn was their last superstar. But it does violate the do not wear a jersey of someone who doesn't play for you team anymore rule that I like to live by. That is more aof an NFL rule, does it apply to NCAA?

Yes, for many reasons...
1. I friggin' purchased the thing for you, so you better wear it.
2. ND jersey's don't even have names on the back. For all you know (and the others around you), that could be the jersey of the current left tackle.
3. You are under 35, so you are allowed to wear any jersey you want, period. Once you're over 35, its all polo shirts from then on. Totally unacceptable for a man 35+ to be wearing any jersey, ever. Jay Z's rule is actually 30. Once you're grown, ditch the kids stuff.
4. I'm sure your jersey will be a lot better looking than some of the other stuff you'll see there by comparison.

Wear it. I want pictures.

it'd be better if it was a Joe Montana Jr jersey

I didn't even realize that the new #10 is... My boy Dayne Crist. If you don't know who Dayne Crist is you soon will. He was the second best QB coming out last year behind you know who. Dayne will be the starting QB by the time Jimmy is a Senior! So I will be wearing a Dayne Crist jersey not a Brady Quinn jersey!

Go Dwayne Christ!

Screw that NFL idea. I paid good money for my Odell jersey and I plan on wearing it as my Bengals jersey until I'm 30. Then I'll retire all of my jerseys because it is weird after 30 unless, like ND, the jersey doesn't have a name on the back.

Darren, won't you be thirty in a few months? You are talking like 30 is a long way off...

Darren said...

Jerk! Yeah I'll be 30 before next season. So this year I'm going to wear my Thurman jersey every Sunday (Not when I play music) until we (The Bengals) win two games. BTW, who wrote that?

Darren, I wrote that. It hit home because I turned thirty last week. I laughed at first and then thought, "Hey, wait a second..."
