My life and times
I went to the UCF game tonight, and had a great time with my boss Ben. We got to sit in the President’s box, and it was pretty incredible. Great food, great people, great game. And we won for the first time in a LOOOONG time, 23-13. We had the longest [...]
The first time I heard that college was using instant replay, I thought it was going to slow the game down too much. Well, 2 weeks in - yep I was right. When the coaches don’t have to challenge, they over-review. And I’ve seen a couple instances now of refs looking at [...]
OK. Everyone has now asked for the Madden Bowl update, so here ya go, in all the gory detail. First, to let you know the scale of the Super Bowl, the closest thing to this that I can think of, and this is actually pretty close when you think about it, was the Winter [...]

Some of you may remember I got Simon tickets to the Detroit Lions v. Jacksonville Jaguars for his birthday. Turns out the game is today, so we’re heading up there, and since it takes about 2 hours to get there, we’ll be heading out about 9:30 or so. Another nice thing is that [...]
My Utes are playing tonight against Wyoming. I admit that I’m a little bit of a fairweather fan this year, but it’s still exciting for us that they’re doing so well. They’re on at 7PM, which sounds ok, but unfortunately, that’s the same time as the Gator game. So, that presents 2 [...]
