Go Dallas, "It's Tricky", the bcs

Hello,

Today is a big day for the Dallas Cowboys as they go into New York to play the Giants. That game kicks off at 2:15 MST. This game will go a long way determining if the Cowboys are a legitimate team. Honestly I don't think they are. Tony Romo still needs to develop as a consistently good quarterback. How much success can you expect with a mediocre head coach? As a Cowboys fan it's hard to know whether to cheer for the Cowboys or against them. If Dallas has a good year then Wade Phillips will probably be back next year. It's in Dallas' long-term interest for him to be gone as soon as possible.

We'll find out who is playing in January 7th's so-called national championship Game tomorrow. (I'm not capitalizing it, until we have a playoff it's not a legitimate national championship.) It looks like it will be Alabama, which is deserving, against Texas. Is Texas deserving? Maybe, maybe not. They didn't look that impressive against a rebuilding Nebraska team yesterday. Nebraska has a great defense anchored by stud defensive player Ndumakong Suh. Of Nebraska's 9 sacks, Suh had 4.5 of them. He looked like a man among boys. Their alleged offense is very offensive and not in a good way.

I'd love to see the MWC's TCU make it into the national championship game. I'd love to see Alabama get beaten by a MWC team in a BCS bowl for the second straight year. It won't happen though, the BCS will never allow that game. How legitimate would the BCS look if a non-BCS team won their national championship? I also wonder what is going to happen to Boise State. With ten BCS bowl spots available how can they not give one to 6th ranked Boise State. BSU has pretty much dominated every team they played. One of their victories is over the now 7th seeded Oregon.

Unfortunately when it comes to the BCS, it's not about what is right, it's about what is best for the BCS. Money will take precedence and we'll see that in tomorrow's selections.

The other day for my drive music, I was listening to Run-DMC's "Raising Hell". Without a doubt this is the greatest rap CD of all-time. It's greatness is highlighted by the classic jam, "It's Tricky". That is just one of those great songs that gets in your head and it's nearly impossible to get out. Other songs like that are the Smashing Pumpkins "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" and Katrina and the Waves "Walking on Sunshine".
