Catch of the Day.
Read it, don’t read it, I don’t care…just needed to get some things off my chest.
In no particular order of chronology or importance…
On the clock. Not an airplane cast. Afternoon rant. Super-speed version. Let’s turn and burn.

- Greetings and salutations, people. Thanks for coming aboard (the boat). This is written at commercials of the Steelers game, so you KNOW we are going one sentence style. Longer one was yesterday anyway so I could semi-clear my slate for today.
- JJ. Not really any pops. A couple at brunch.
- Boomer Sooner, and the better team won and will be in the playoff.
- At one point in the first half, OU had 28 points on 26 plays.
- At one point in the first half, OSU’s Walsh matched his SEASON total in pass attempts with 29.
- Henry and Watson having one more game to impress voters to me means Baker Mayfield will get invited to New York, but not win.
- My four invitees at this point are Henry, Watson, Mayfield, and McCaffrey.
- Down to Henry and Watson…
- I hope I don’t regret dropping the Steelers D and picking up the KC D in both fantasy leagues.
- Refining the team for the fantasy playoffs takes attention to detail and hard decisions.
- The MSU-PSU game was what we thought it would be, and I am just glad Buckeye fans across the nation are temporarily sad unless crazy things go down in the conference championships.
- “Rutgers fires” anyone is good news for that school…clean slate needed.
- I think the Detroit Tigers were smart in not getting in a bidding war with someone like Price and Greinke, and just getting great second tier pitching like Jordan Zimmerman.
- You can argue maybe Mark Richt shouldn’t have gotten fired, but he had the talent over the years, didn’t win some big games, and lost UGLY in 10-12 other games in his tenure.
- The Miles thing went one way and the Richt thing went the other, but pretty similar situations overall.
- I am proud of A.P. for passing O.J. on the overall rushing list, but I just care that he carries both of my fantasy teams to victory THIS year.
- Phillip Rivers passed Montana in TD’s today, and I am sure he would trade in a bunch of them for ONE Super Bowl ring.
- Bama didn’t pummel Auburn, and it would have been a huge upset, but let’s remember it is one of the best rivalries in any sport, Auburn was ranked top 5 before the season so they had the talent, and a W is a W in that series.
- Yes, Lindsey and I are seriously mulling over guessing which playoff site OU will be at and BOOKING very soon.
- We will use Southwest, so it can transfer.
- Pretty sure Bama destroys, only mildly concerned about Clemson getting upset, and the key is figuring our where Michigan State/ Iowa are placed…
- I like gambles and spontaneous traveling decisions.
- Can we just anoint UNC as the surprise team of the year, even though they have played no one, they play in the ACC, and they would get destroyed by most of the top 10?
- I remember when I used to watch the show Criminal Minds.
- USC beat UCLA and is the only team in any conference championship that it doesn’t matter if they win or lose.
- I am sure the UCLA QB is OK in an in room hot tub about now.
- I was going to pounce on Michigan’s lack of output on Saturday, but then I remembered on paper Ohio State is probably the best team in the land and Michigan is on a 2-3 year plan.
- I can write a lot when I am making them short sentences.
- I remember caring about a heavyweight who lost for the first time in 11 years to a guy named after Mike Tyson, but there has been NOTHING to care about in the heavyweight division for years.
- Congrats to Fuente for getting the Hokies job, but I would have waited.
- Think about it…he could be interviewing with GEORGIA about now.
- Can we just anoint Georgia Tech the most disappointing team in the nation this year?
- Can’t wait to see what weird, odd criminal offense they dig up on Okafor tomorrow…so weird about these things with that guy
- We knew going to the 76ers was depressing, but we didn’t know it could be life changing.
- Props to Jamie Vardy, as although I am country not club, I realize 11 matches in a row is a LOT.
- I am hearing Anton Grady from Wichita State is doing better and am glad.
- Although it is against below par competition, I assume South Carolina basketball players are 6-0 simply out of fear for Frank Martin.
- KU took out Vandy last Wednesday, but KNOW Vandy will destroy your bracket in March.
- I think it is funny that Notre Dame literally fell asleep on two plays and that is why they are not in the playoff.
- Florida could jack up EVERYTHING by winning against Bama, and it will be so simple if they don’t.
- The ONE photo I couldn’t keep my hands still I have a feeling like I will be explaining for YEARS…dammit.
- Debbie (Linds mom), SO glad you still read this thing.
- Thankfully, OU will make the playoff, as my other three picks preseason (Oregon, Georgia, and Ohio State) didn’t pan out so well.
- You don’t want the Chiefs on your schedule anytime soon.
- Think the Rams will draft a little offense next year?
- Think the Eagles and Rams perhaps regret that trade off of QB’s?
- My idea of just letting the Giants and Saints play each other in a three game series is not far fetched, as no one can figure out either team.
- Just when I started believing the Bucs were a team to be reckoned with, and I even took Winston in DraftKings.
- That’s it. I just watched the Steelers fake a kick, and have Landry Jones throw an interception. Gotta get back to the game. Hope you enjoyed or are at least more informed. Will I blog tomorrow? That is a CLOWN question, bro.
