* Well the countdown to the end of a torturous baseball season continues for those of us who are Yankee fans, as the Yankees lost 1-0 last night to the Tampa Bay Rays and continue to slip further away from the second wild card slot. The $200 million dollar lineup has only scored 6 runs in its last five games. I knew back at the end of July that they were not going to make it but the spin masters continued to keep everyone believing that they could make a run. Well the days of the 1995-2012 teams are done. These guys are incapable of a long winning streak. Unfortunately, it may be a few seasons before we see such a Yankee team being able to do that.
* The NFL continues to take more hits with the arrest of Adrian Peterson for child abuse and now a second report that Peterson beat one of his other seven children last year. The law and order Commissioner, Roger Goodell, has been no where to be found. If the NFL wants to retain some of its credibility, Goodell needs to suspend Peterson, Ray McDonald and Greg Hardy indefinitely pending their cases making it through the legal system.
* Loved the article that referenced the NFL as the National Felons League.
* I must admit that the Browns have me interested again after their 26-24 win over the New Orleans Saints. The Browns defense seem to sag in the second half after an impressive first half however they did contribute as a result of a beautiful pick six from Tashaun Gipson. The offense sputtered in the second half but Brian Hoyer was able to engineer a drive which led to the game winning field goal. However, there were parts of Hoyer's game which need improvement.
* Anyone who says that Jay Cutler is soft should have their heads examined. The shot he took late in the first half before the touchdown pass to Brandon Marshall was brutal. Yet, he led the Bears to the victory. Marshall's one handed catch of that first touchdown could go down as the catch of the year.
* I still find college football more exciting than the NFL.
* Kudos to the Radisson Hotel chain as they have pulled their sponsorship with the Minnesota Vikings after the Vikings reinstated Peterson for Sunday's game against the Saints.
* Who has a better future: the Chicago Cubs or the Yankees?
* Rookie camps throughout the National Hockey League were in full swing over the weekend with preseason camps beginning later this week. Needless to say I can't wait for the season to start.
* Well, the parade route is being developed for the Buffalo Bills Super Bowl win that is bound to happen as a result of the team being 2-0. It should be interesting to see how they do Sunday against the San Diego Chargers, who defeated the defending World Champion Seattle Seahawks.
* I wonder where all the morons are who were criticizing Sammy Watkins during the preseason?
* And finally, I'm so happy to be living in Pegulaville.
