Bound for....1-7????

As I've said, I watch Bound for Glory, the story of Montour football with Hall of Famer Dick Butkus and NFL vet Ray Crockett joining the team as coaches.

Now, if you wouldn't like to know what's going on in real life, skip the next paragraph:
Currently, Montour is 1-7, about the same as what they've done recently. The last 2-3 games have been blowouts. 2 weeks ago, Butkus and Crockett left as their contracts ran out. Now, of course there is the backlash, "Oh, they weren't helpful, they weren't good coaches, blah, blah, blah." Now, Butkus has never proven to be a great coach, but I fail to believe he wasn't the least big helpful. Just from watching, Montour isn't very good, and they believe they're better than they really are. I've been on teams like that, and we didn't do well. It will be interesting to see how the last 2 games are shown on TV without Butkus and Crockett.

Ok, you can resume reading now. In tonight's Amazing Race, the teams went from Huntsville, AL to New Orleans via Talledega Super Speedway. Going to Talladega was hard for the Weavers because they lost their dad to a racing crash. Going to Louisiana should've been an advantage for the Schroeders because they're from there. But as I've witnessed, the team going home got overconfident and made a mistake. The Schroeders got lost, which got them eliminated. The Bransens lead (3 gorgeous girls I might add), team Cincinnati (Linz) is 3rd, and the little kids are still alive, the Gaghins are bringing up the rear. Mrs. Weaver had the dumb line of the show, "This is Lake Ponchartrain, one of the Great Lakes." Oh boy.....

The screenplay for Rocky VI is being written. Rocky, surprise surprise, makes another comeback. Sly, STOP MAKING ROCKYS!!!! Rocky V wasn't that good, how are we supposed to think Rocky VI will be any better??? What else can you do Rocky? You lost the fight you should've won, then you won it, then you remade yourself and won, then you won the Cold War, I mean what else is left?

And don't look now, Hurricane Wilma, the 21st named storm of the season which ties the all-time record, is quickly becoming a major storm in the southern Caribbean. It is likely going to turn toward Florida and hit this weekend.

It seems like I'm forgetting something, but I guess not. Catch ya later.
