Well…haven’t figured out a political one yet so I thought I’d do a short one on sports…I was just going to say that all of my teams suck and leave it at that, but that just didn’t seem enough…so, here goes…
The Lions….what the heck can you say about the Lions? You would think that since 1957 they would have gotten to a championship game even if by accident…but, no…in 58 years, not one damn championship or even a whiff of a team good enough or lucky enough to even compete…and it doesn’t look good for next year, either…but, do I still watch? Yep…but with the understanding that they will be bad…not sure if I know a Lions fan that ever even talks about the super bowl….not in our vocabulary.
The Tigers……boy what a fall for the Tigers…contending for the world series last year and just stinking up the place this year and I’m not really sure what happened….lots of injuries did them in for the most part and staleness of the management team didn’t help…thankfully, some of that has changed for next year but the starting pitching looks like it is mediocre at best…
The Red Wings…after last night’s game, I’m not sure what to think of the Wings…looks good for a playoff spot for the 24th year in a row but I think their mindset is that that is the ultimate goal…just to get to the playoffs…for such a young team, that’s not the way to think…there has to be a loftier goal…back to the Stanley Cup finals at least to get some of these guys motivated….I can’t remember a Wings team that had the swagger they used to have and tuning in to watch we were confident that they would dominate the other team…I want that back…
Manchester United….worst…team…ever…just horrible to watch…just painful to watch these guys play right now and I’m not sure I will for much longer…no killer instinct…no defense..no nothing…looks little better than the David Moyes team…Louie VanGaal has to go…along with some of the players if this club wants to return to the Man U that used to be….I can’t remember the last time they even scored a goal…
Okay…that’s it for now…was going to talk about nascar a little but just don’t feel like it right now….more later…
