The Blog for the Sports Gamer Three guys who love Sports Gaming rant and rave about various stuff.

Sunday notes

- Around 6 o'clock on Friday night I started to get a headache, earache, and sore throat... then the temp went up.  I hit 103 on Friday, and then 104.5 on Saturday, and finally 105.2 around 10:00 last night.  At that point my wife took me to the ER.   Turns out I have Strep.  Pisser.  So, antibiotics are the order of the day.  Thankfully, my parents were able to take the kids tonight while I'm still contagious.  So, at least I don't have to watch over them today.  That would have been nearly impossible.

- Well, the Badgers season really ended on a whimper last night as they got thumped by FSU. I think people here were just hoping for them to put a good showing together...boy did they disappoint.  Starting the season ranked in the top 10, and ending it 7-6... that's just plain fugly football.

- Speaking of Fugly football, I'm sitting here watching the Packers and Lions.  I think that says it all.

- Oh, can someone tell the fine people at Lexus that in a massive recession there aren't going to be many people giving out cars as gifts to their spouses... Those commercials piss me off every time I see them.

- I think the furor over Wes Welker getting a fine is rather entertaining.  The snow angel celebration has been in the books since 2006.  Is it an idiotic rule, of course... but it's on the books.

Personally, I think that the fact that it was a "good guy" did something like that that has people so upset.  If it would have been Chad Johnson, no one would have made a fuss.
