Are ya ready for some football????

damn. i thought i was gonna stop with those pesky music references in the title entries. oh well - you can take the boy out of the music, but you can't take the music out of the boy....ok, that makes NO sense.

anyway, this weekend, my beloved Dallas Cowboys saw themselves eliminated from the playoffs, partially because they just couldn't quite finish teams off this year (they lost five games by 7 or less points!), and partially because the Philadelphia Eagles suck ass. I mean, you're trying to win a game, you've got a QB having a decent game against a tough defense, and you yank him to put in Koy Detmer. Koy Detmer. A lifetime rating of 61.2. Hasn't thrown for more than 238 yards in a season - that's a SEASON - since his rookie year like eight years ago.

i hate the Redskins. i hate the Giants. but this year, i REALLY hate the Eagles. god, they suck.

anyway, enough of that. i'm here to talk about the Texas Longhorns, my favorite college football team since i started watching sports. Tonight, they're in the Rose Bowl, playing for the National Championship. it's been a long time since they did that.

Granted, i'll probably be disappointed as shit again, and they'll probably lose tonight.

but, right now, the game is 5 mintues from starting, so i'm still holding out some hope that i'll be a happy football fan in the morning...
