A Football Rant

Like most Americans, I'm into sports. Especially Football. San Francisco 49ers to be exact. I've been a fan since the early '90s and have soared the greatest of highs, and drowned in the lowest of lows.

For the past few years, Ive been listening to the so called 'experts' pick them as favorites to go to the Superbowl. My thoughts? Blah Blah, everyone changes opinions week to week. One week they're the best team in Football, next its the Eagles with their 'Dream Team' or the Giants. This year its RGIII and his already playoff team before he got there.  But, I digress. As much as I want to believe the 49ers are going to the Superbowl, I dont see it. Im usually pretty good at predicting these things. Last year when the Packers were still undefeated I predicted they wouldnt make it to the Superbowl. This year, I predicted before the start of the season that the Lions would indeed not make it to the playoffs.

The 49ers dont really seem to want it bad enough.  They keep losing to teams they should outright own. The Rams? Really? Were you saving your best effort for the 5th quarter? I am a die-hard fan, but I can see whats coming. This past weekend, I picked the Seattle Seahawks to win. After the first touchdown, I knew it was going to be a blow-out. Wheres the D? Apparently thinking of what they were going to do for the holidays.

Now, on another subject, Im a Andrew Luck fan. Due only to his play in College. I believe he was screwed in the popularity contest they call the Heisman. Hey everyone, lets go for the hot QB in RGIII and ignore the guy whos been operating at a higher level for years! Yay! Seems to be following him into the NFL too. Andrew has done more with less, and still no one gives him any credit. Analysts are actually investing reasons to back him for MVP and Rookie of The Year. Kind of reminds you of a certain someone who last year someone called a future Hall of Famer? Where is he now?

I dont put much into what 'Experts" say any more. Just the other day when a pregame show was making their picks they put the records of everyone on the board. They even included the viewers who could vote with the Analysts. The viewers HAD A BETTER RECORD than the Hosts! Really? That goes to show just because you played the game doesnt mean you have a clue what you're doing when it comes to making picks and giving opinions. Now some shows are better than others. Some of the Analysts come across as knowing what the're talking about and show you why. Some just don't have the sense to get off my television.

Thanks for dealing with my rant.

Oh. Super Bowl prediction? Seahawks, Patriots. Sorry guys
