I hate overtime games. It’s so arbitrary. First team to score wins. Blah. The Steelers allowed 7 sacks of Ben today. That’s ridiculous. This whole game was ridiculous. The team played sloppy on both sides of the ball. Now we’re tied with the Browns as far as records go but the Steelers hold the tie breaker.
I had no sooner wrote that I was gonna get my mom a gag gift for Christmas when she called me to tell me that she had gotten her neighbor a gag gift. What did she get her? How about incontinence supplies? Which is just about what I wanted to get her. When I asked her why, she started laughing and said it was a funny thing to do. I think she’s been reading my blog and figured that she would get me before I got her.
Now I have to think of something else to get. Well besides her lottery tickets that is. Those are a given.
Just as I was getting ready to type this out, James Harrison made a great play to sack the Jets quarterback. Other than that, this game has been horrible. The defense is racking up a helluva lot of penalties and they’ve allowed a 100 yard rusher. That’s the first time that’s happened in 34 games.
I don’t really want anything. My mom is giving me her casino rewards so I can go pick out what I want from that. But I don’t want a traditional gift. Neither does she this year. I’ve decided to get her a some lottery tickets (which she loves) and a gag gift. Maybe something like some protective underwear will make her laugh. I really like not being confined buying a gift. She’s really easy to shop for.
Now to get gifts for the people I work with. My supervisor will probably get a gift card or something. I don’t know what to get my manager. She really doesn’t talk about anything that she likes. I guess we’ll figure something out.
I love football. Professional football that is. I don’t know what it is about college football that I don’t like. I just can’t watch it. Saturday is college day so it’s so hard to watch tv all day because that’s all that’s on. I even try to watch and root for a particular team, then halfway through the game I get bored or just totally lose interest.
Maybe it’s because my school is not that good. I mean if I had gone to GA or OSU maybe I would be excited about football. I only used GA because Hines Ward went there and OSU because Santonio Holmes went there. lolol. See, I even tied college ball in with the pros. I can’t help it. I’m a NFL nut. If anybody has any ideas on how I can get more into college ball, let me know.
I mean really. It’s against the Jets who have a horrible record. It’s not like this is a game that everybody is waiting with baited breath to see. I could have easily been a 1pm game like normal. I hate late games because then there’s the Sunday Night game which comes on at 8pm and stays on until close to midnight.
I never get anything done on Sunday because I watch football all day. I wish I had home theater chairs so I could lay back and be comfortable while watching the games. Oh well, the couch will do.
