The Sooper Bowl

Alas, the day is upon us...the culmination of yet another elongated NFL season...with the perennial participants, the New England Patriots...and this year's Washington Generals, the Philadelphia Eagles...as we set up our 10 by 10 brackets...draw them numbers and hope, beyond hope, that a score lands on ours...I mean, that's why we like this game, right?...

The Pats are guided by the effervescent head coach, Billy Bellycheck...such a bubbly personality that you want him to go on and on about the game...sure, he wins more than most...is there a coincidence that he has as many wins as his 62 year old quarterback, Tom Terrific, does?...just maybe, the elder statesman throwing all them passes, has a bit to do with the success...TT, with the model wife, has his lifestyle questioned at every turn...as LiLo calls the, 'haters'...

Still, the other side of the bracket...puts forth another newbie, to try to take them down...this time?...the Eagles...hmmm, not that long ago, were guided by the collegiate guru, the old Duckee, Chip Kelly...that did not fare well in the NFL, and especially, in Philly...I digress...he was a savior for moi in Eugene...

Me thinks that the Eagles were the best in the league until their QB went down...had to shuffle about and came out of it, with a backup one...that actually played for Chip...and he is doing just fine...they have solid players everywhere...especially on D...but now?...still dang good...but at the next level..down...

I told you I that I might have some analysis for ya...the problem with giving out too much, is that YOU may rip the Horse apart if the advice is wrong...what?...please, please, please...do not bet what I say...there is nowhere ever, I say 'expert analysis'...however, here I go...

The over under line keeps rising...in the past week...from 45 to 49...WTH?...what does that mean?...dang, if I don't watch what the Vegas dudes do...here's the deal...

What Philly does to TT...rush him with more than 4...make him dump stuff early...or drop 7 or 8 and let him throw in front of the D...'contain' him...also...how the Eagles are able to run the ball...can they control the clock?...it appears that the Vegas dudes think they can not...why else would the line keep going up?...so...the smart money would be to give the 4 1/2 and take the Pats...

In my gut...however...I see a 10-14 point stomp by the Patriots...

Other...

Ouch...the Cavs got rocked at HOME by the Houston Rockets...by 30, most of the game...to a chorus of boos by the locals...the Isaiah experiment is a bust, kids...ha ha ha...

The Warriors played poorly yet again...and are limping into the All Star Game...got whupped in Denver...more silly TO's...

The PGA blokes are getting tired of the non-golf atmosphere at the 16th hole of the Soprano Open...don't blame 'em...the crazies get there at that spot, seven hours early...oh my...the winner there...man, there are a bunch close...Rickie is in the lead heading into this final day...

The Natalie Wood death stuff...it was a pixel sensational thinger...fuggit about it ...it was a tragedy and...well, enough of it...

So what are you cooking for the game?...THE game...make it be finger food, kids...I was watching the Chew...and one of them, actually prepared clam chowder!...oh my...no!...wings, pizza, chips...dogs, sliders...vege trays...c'mon...and the drink of choice?...brewskies...wine?...get outta here...wait, the ladies like the wine...OK, then...but NO guy is to be seen drinking the vino at the SB party...

Listen, if your only interest is the commercials...and the JT halftime show...please use your 'library voice' for the rest of the time you are at the Pahhhteee...us dudes, like the football part of it...and...let's hope that the pixels analyst is NOT the old Cowboy, Tony Romo, he is turrible...

OK, we are heading on out to Sycuan for a brunch...game time is after 3, right?...
