BND's Bloggin for the 'Boys



The cowboys come into today's match-up at 1-1, but overshadowed by this weeks unfortunate series of events involving Terrell Owens. Tennessee's record is a dismal 0-3, and made the decision to start rookie quarterback Vince Young. I am huge Longhorns fan and a huge Vince Young fan, so I think it is a shame for him to make his first NFL start against the Cowboys.

Putting aside T.O.'s problems this week, we need to remember that he had surgery less than two weeks ago and has a plate in his hand. He still started the game, and as of now (midway through the 4th qtr), he has had a big game. Julius Jones and Marion Barber have rushed for over 150 yards combined and the Cowboys are winning 31-14. Scratch that! Interception ran back for a touchdown 38-14.

One of the ugliest displays of lack of sportsmanship was witnessed after an earlier touchdown when the Titans Defensive Tackle Albert Haynesworth ripped the helmet off of Cowboys center Andre Gurode, kicked him in the back, then stomped on his exposed head. This resulted in a 30 yard penalty, Haynesworth's ejection from the game, and several stitches in the head of Gurode. There is no room in football for this type of behavior. The NFL must, and I believe will, make an example of Haynesworth with a very lengthy suspension if not expulsion from the league.

Damn, we scored again 45-14. Now, all three of or running backs have scored touchdowns. And that is how the game will end. Time to watch the rest of the NASCAR race at KC.

I missed all of the morning as I had other priorities, if you can believe that. Tennessee I believe is in survival mode now. A team that looked as if would be able to build a talent-filled contender within a few years looks like it is in heat shock, simply grabbing at anything it can to stabilize itself. There is fire coming Fisher's way, Vince Young is forced to start, this is a still a young team, and things have taken a turn for the worse for the Titans. 0-4 is ugly. Its looking like your one fat buddy at college who follows you around to parties and you're just praying for a pitty fuck for the guy. Good luck at Indianapolis next week, boys.

I'll have a big wrapup tomorrow after the Packers get their dicks kicked in tonight. What a game last night, I can't wait to make some comments on this. It wasn't just the win, the Bears ruled on both sides of the ball, the offensive machine made huge strides down the field, the defense was all over Hasselbeck and held another touchdown-less game. 37-6 answers a lot of questions about this team.

Things couldn't be much worse in Tennessee. A game in Indianapolis this coming week probably won't make things any better.
