And so with over a third of the regular season behind us, certain trends are seeming to arise. No need to rub salt into Bob's wounds, in that regard. The Pats, Eagles and Jets have yet to lose, while the Dolphins are winless. Jerry Rice jumped ship to Seattle where he'll have a whole new city worth of tail to chase, Ricky Williams is still in a hazy limbo, Brett Favre's running out of relatives whose untimely drunken deaths might light a fire under his uninspired Pack, Daunte Culpepper is on fire (quite literally - it must hurt), and Ben Roethlisberger's jerseys are popping up all over the white ghettos of Appalacia. All in all, I'd say that we're seeing some quality football this season - none of which is being played in the Bay Area. But like so much of the country, I'm not really giving much thought to the NFL aside from the weekends given the Pennant races still undecided as of this morning. After being in Boston over the past weekend and stomaching the karmic dismantling that was going down 3-0 for the Red Sox, I, like 99.9% of the country thought it was all over. Whatever happens this evening in New York it will be hard to switch gears and worry about the Bears/Bucs or 'Aints/Raidahs games upcoming this weekend. Hard, but entirely doable. Still, I love this time of year as a sports fan. It surely sucks to be living in Canada with no NHL and it will always be lame to cheer for the NBA, no matter where you live. But for the rest of us, this is the time of year that couches were made for. Enjoy your place on yours. I hope to join y'all soon wherever that there may be.
