Catch of the Day.

HOOK:

“Bored.”

As in, only if I have nothing to do tonight.  Maybe I will go grab something to eat after work and MAYBE be back to watch it.  It doesn’t matter to me.  The Redskins-Giants game tonight has nothing to offer me except possible bone headed decisions, penalties, and a possible appearance by RGIII to work up the masses.  Oh, maybe Mr. Beckham will do something special.  Or maybe there will be Pope jokes.  Bottom line, give me the Giants because they are at home, but I probably won’t have in game notes for my blog tomorrow.

LINE:

“Walton.”

Petco Park and the Padres have announced that Bill Walton will host a basketball “festival” at the end of November with Mr. Bill Walton leading the activities.  Here is hoping that people enjoy some basketball on a baseball field, Walton doesn’t mistake “festival” with some sort of Grateful Dead concert and show up stoned, and that he shows clips of him announcing any single game in his announcing history.  “You might not be old enough to remember everyone, but that might be the best left handed full court bounce pass by a evenjersey numbered guard from the northeast in the Pac-12 since 1983.”

SINKER:

“Murray.”

DeMarco Murray is a north-south runner primarily, which is why watching him in this east-west offense of Philly’s is so painful.  He is hurt now, sure, and it is a shame.  Bradford MIGHT break out at some point, but it won’t be without Murray on the field and defenses respecting the run.  Or will it?  Anyway, watching a guy who has averaged 5.2 and 4.7 YPC in his last two years get TWENTY ONE TOTAL rushing attempts and gaining 11 yards TOTAL has been painful to say the least.  Get healthy, DeMarco.  Cute to reunite you two OU guys on the same exciting offense.  Not cute to watch it sputter.

That’s it for today.  Peace.
