Welcome to another New Year. My promise this year is to update this blog with much more regularity. Along with improving my typing skills, it just may help to keep me sane.
-It was a great start to the new year for a couple of my teams. Michigan came up up with a huge bowl victory over Florida. It may be that Florida's offense was, well offensive, but Michigan threw up 41 points on their vaunted defense. The Canadiens had a big win in the Winter Classic over the Bruins. After a torrid start, the Habs have come back down to earth. Of course all of the injuries, including missing Carey Price for much of the season, have not helped.
-We are 43 days away from Pitchers and Catchers. That is one day that cannot come soon enough. Mother Nature has been very helpful in that our weather has been more fall like than brutal so far. I have a feeling that we will soon be paying for that.
-The Steelers provided some drama as they clinched a playoff spot on the final day of the season. They now get to face the Bengals, who haven't won a playoff game since they beat the Houston Oilers in 1990. With Dalton out, hopefully that streak continues.
-The Clodbusters schedule is out and for the first time since it started in 1992, we will not be attending the Ohio Cup. Nothing new is on tap other than the new team in Fairfield. Well not really a new team, the Norwood Highlanders have relocated and have become the Black Bottom Nine.
-Happy New Year to all.
Nuff Ced.
