0-11

Whatever. This sucks, and there's nothing that can be said or done really.

Trent Green
Ronnie Brown
Zach Thomas
Jesse Chatman
Ricky Williams
Yerimiah Bell
Matt Roth
Renaldo Hill
Travares Tillman

The injury list goes on and on.

6 Losses by 3 points or less, including last nights disgusting sloppy mess of a 3-0 loss with 17 seconds left.

After all the injuries I can't really blame anyone, in addition, the guys have played everyone very, very hard and play for 4 quarters. Something you cannot say about many teams that have such a dismal record.

John Beck has shown glimpses of being a decent NFL QB, fairly mobile and a pretty good arm. Needs to calm down though and slow his footwork, maybe in time. And Ricky made a nice cameo appearance. Odds that he was getting high in the bathroom during the weather delay last night? 2:1, 3:2? Anyone? That injury looked like it hurt though.

Cam Cameron, on the other hand, has been a disgrace. He has made terrible calls in the front office, as well as on the field. This guy has one, maybe two more years to show he can be a head coach in the NFL or he needs to be shown the door.

This week against the Jets is as winnable a game they will see for the rest of the season, an 0-16 record will be staring them in the face with a loss.

What else? UConn made it a game by scoring on their opening drive against UWV, but it was over before the teams even took the field, too much of a talent difference. Maybe in a few years the Huskies will be able to compete with the best.

Random poll question: As of now, who has the better college football program? Connecticut or Nebraska.

Exciting games played by LSU/Arkansas and Kentucky/Tennessee.

In other news, the Staples High School football team got spanked on their home field on Thanksgiving day by the Greenwich Cardinals (home of HOF QB Steve Young) for the FCIAC Championship.

Went to the Celtics game Friday. These guys are really, really good and honestly do not see a team in the East that can beat them in a seven game series. It is impossible to guard all 3 of Allen, Pierce and Garnett. Not possible. You can shut down one, and even hold down another, but it is not possible to stop all three. They even match up very well against the best of the West in the Spurs and Mavs. Not so much against the Suns, but if they could reach the finals and somehow play the Spurs or Mavs, I see no reason why Boston couldn't take home another championship in another sport...

...kill me now.
