Where Have You Been Sahkira?

It's been quite a while since my last blog post. Almost exactly a year. Today I feel oddly inspired. Here's the quick recap of what has happened in the last year:

1) Got married at a football stadium w/ a football themed wedding (any surprise there?)

2) Signed/Autographed Wes Welker ball was my gift to my husband

3) Accidentally was on TV giving Steve a high-five at the Patriots-Bills game after the Randy Moss TD. (back when he was on the team).

4) Saw San Diego Chargers shut-out the chiefs (thx to my cousin barbara)

5) Was a silent part of a crowd of angry 49er fans who harassed the players from their seats a few feet behind the home-team bench. Yowers.

6) Saw Giants get mortified by Vick and DeJean Jackson. Don't talk to me about it.

7) Saw Cutler get sacked over 10 times by the Gmen.

That about sums it up. More deets and photo recaps to come! :)

Joe Gibbs, You Idiot!

So this was two weeks ago - Buffalo-Washington. The Skins players had just suffered and felt the grevious loss of Sean Taylor. But they had fought through the game, the challenges... and were on the verge of a win.

All they had to do was ice the Buffalo kicker from scoring a field-goal.

I'm sitting on the couch at my Aunt's house watching the game with my entire familyl. Joe Gibss calls the first time. La da dee da... now it's time to leave all the pressure on the kicker's shoulders.

I ask "can you call two-time outs in a row?"

Nick replies, "No, you can't. You need a play in between."

But then what does Joe-I-Am-So-Old-I-Wrote-The-Book-Gibbs do? He calls a time out? What are you thinking?

If someone saw the press conference afterwards, feel free to send it to me and I'll post it. It's time to retire.

Can Someone Remind Miami & Buffalo That This is Football? Not Baseball.

3-2. That's the score that scrolled on the bottom of my screen on CBS. Three to two. I thought... why are they reporting baseball scores? Then after squinting, I realized it was the Miami-Buffalo score.

Although I've yet to see "highlights" from the game, I can't imagine it was very pretty.

Bills Give Cowboys Run For Their Money

hahaha, get it? Bills? Money?

Anyway, if you didn't see the game tonight you have missed one of the best games in the past year. Who didn't think the Cowboys would destroy the Bills? No one. Don't even try to pretend you thought Buffalo had a chance. I don't believe you.

The fact that Buffalo outplayed Dallas the entire game was shocking to begin with... and wtf Romo? WTF? 6 turn-overs? I mean, that's worse than the Jets.

So with less than 2 minutes left in the game Bills were up 24-16.... and after a few more turn-overs... the Cowboys some how ended up in the end-zone with a TD pass to Patrick Crayton... Now they need the 2 point conversion to tie it up (obvi)

Romo to TO... and the ball is STRIPPED from TO's hands in the end zone. Incredible defensive play... I thought heads were going to roll....

Now the cowboys have that unlikely shot to recover an on-side kick... and holy shizzle... THEY DO!

Romo to TO... it's called a catch.... Romo spikes... 1 second left on the clock.

BUT WAIT! hold the phone, they need to review the previous play (TO"s catch)... which is over-turned!

So attempt 2... 13 seconds on the clock... complete 2 short passes.... 2 seconds left on the clock.

LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN

TWO SECONDS LEFT ON THE CLOCK.



53-yard field goal attempt... the kick is up... it's gooooood!!!!!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRT

No it's not. Bills called a time out before the kick.

What kicker can make that kick twice? hahaha, like no one... so can Nick Folk (who???) make the 52-yard attempt AGAIN?

Well whadd'ya know... that mo'fo makes that kick again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Incredible and exciting game.

Phew, i'm emotionally exhausted.

And I still hate the cowboys. But thanks for the entertaining game.

PS. "Matriculate the coverage" makes absolutely no sense...
