Winter Wonderland

You just have to lead with the Apple Cup...the winner of it goes to the Pac 12 Champ game...for 3 months it has been the WSU Cougs to cherish...the one team now standing in their way?...their arch nemesis and rival team from their state, the Dawgs of Washington...who seemingly have had their number for the past 5 years...yup, a streak that doesn't sit well in the Palouse...not this year?...

And then the weather hit...SNOW!...last night...lots of it...a WINTER WONDERLAND...how much will this affect the passing game of WSU?...well, the Dawgs, too...for the viewer, it was a delight...for the Cougs, not so much...as the Huskies methodically whupped them at all phases of the game...and they, not Wash St, move on to the champ game...AND, eliminates any notion of the Cougars going to the final 4...them rivalry games...

About 6 hours south of there, was the Civil War...in Orygun...played in the bloody rain in Corvallis...alas, NO MATCH!...as the Ducks destroyed the lines of the Beavs...it appeared to moi, that either OSU quit, or got beat up...I sense the former...too bad...along the way, at the end of the 1st half, the star QB Herbert of UO, got slammed down on the fake turf...and was lost for the game (and season?)...well, the bowl game...55-15...egads...

As I was cruising the web net...there was memo that caught me eye...that the match...er, The Match...between Lefty and Tiger was being live streamed...for free...went to the site, and it was in fact, there...so, via me iPhone, I watched it from the eighth hole on....to be frank, the boys were not playing well...in so much, that one of the 'analysts', well, guest hosts, Chas Barkley, blurted out 'that he could have beat both of them, today'...right...anyway, it turned out to be tied until it got dark...and they went to a Mickey Mouse finish...under the lights, a make shift 93 yard hole...which Lefty eventually won on...$9 million bucks...whatever...

This am, will be the OTHER OSU on the pixels...THE Ohio State Buckeyes...hosting the Michigan Wolverines...like the Dawgs, who have the whammy on the Cougs...OSU has the same on Mich...expect a similar outcome...just got to think that the winner gets the last slot in the final 4...
it's on at 9 am...the Horse will miss it...as I have a 8:40 tee time...might get back for the ending...

Staying with the festive day of the winter...are you looking for an Xmas CD?...there are so many that are great...try, the one by Lady Antebellum...
