Ehhhh, Who needs Luck?
So the Colts won yesterday. This was good and all, and as a fan I guess I am happy.
But, there is this underlying thing, it's called Andrew Luck. I mean this guy is pretty much a guaranteed stud. I mean if you go down a check list of what you want in a QB he has a lot of stuff that'd benefit the Colts.
QB Checklist
-Leadership
-Durability
-High IQ
-No Off field problems
-Accuracy
-Arm Strength
So why is this a big deal the Colts are winning right. Well think about it, if you were going to get a raise in a job and you had to work the holidays would you. If you're happy with the job and the pay you get then you can stay with what you got (i.e. You have Peyton Manning, but you could have Peyton Manning teaching Andrew Luck), or you could work on the Holiday and make some more money.
Other teams that qualify for the number one overall pick in the next NFL draft are teams that, surprise, need a QB (except St. Louis, but even they could trade Sam Bradford and take Luck). Any team would be crazy if they passed on this guy, I mean he is a LeBron-esk player, the talent is all there.
This is essentially Tim Tebow leadership, intermingled with Peyton Manning. It's a little scary, because I though Cam Newton was a talented guy, but I thought he was going to be sub par and not get the numbers he's gotten and have off field problems...boy was I wrong.
Some people are starting to try and make us Colts fans second guess, you know mentioning names like Ryan Leaf and Jamarcus Russlle, but come on he has the talents and the brains to do the right things.
I am just going to give some advice to the Colts for their upcoming game against the Jags on New Years day.
1.) Start Peyton Manning.....as a Line Backer
2.) Start Curtis Painter at QB
3.) Add MJD to Jim Cadwell's Fantasy Team.
LOSE FOR LUCK, thank you.

N.....BA?
So yes I love football, but there is another sport out there that I enjoy. That sport is basketball. The problem is instead of having posts on football and basketball this season, there was no NBA to talk about because of an NBA lockout....well the lockout is kind of over and you'd expect with the new CBA to have an NBA Free Agency frenzy like we did when we got the NFL unlocked....the problem is the NBA Commish isn't allowing it.
The story all starts with the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers franchise. When they got swept in the playoffs by the NBA Champs, the Dallas Mavericks, they basically crumpled their franchise into a paper ball and started on a new clean sheet. They fired legendary head coach Phil Jackson, they also showed interest in upcoming free agents like Chris Paul (Point Guard from New Orleans Hornets) and Dwight Howard (Center from the Orlando Magic).
Since the lockout though their pursuit was put on hold, players were then bound to their player organizations not their NBA organizations. So the Lakers waited patiently and once the lockout was put to rest they were like "Alright lets get this party started!" So the Lakers put out a trade offer for Chris Paul the trade involved a three team deal between the Lakers, Rockets (Houston Texas), and the Hornets. The Players involved in the trade were Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, Chris Paul, Luis Scola, Kevin Martin, Gordan Dragic, and a 2012 Draft Pick.
But David Stern was like "NO!" He said the deal was under cutting the other teams in NBA that don't have stars. You mean like the Rockets and the Hornets....who were also in the deal? I mean the Hornets were getting a lot for their all star Point Guard, they were getting Luis Scola, Kevin Martin, Lamar Odom, and the Kardashians (or at least one of them). Houston was getting a new all star center to replace Yao Ming in Pau Gasol, and the Lakers (The NBA's awarded and fan loved (but not by I the Sports d00de)) were getting, who most experts claim to be, the best point guard in the league! How is that unfair.
When I heard this story on my favorite sports radio show, Colin Cowherd and the Herd, I was like "WHat? what is David Stern thinking?" Then Colin had Steve Kerr on and he was basically saying that it was uncharacteristic of David Stern to basically break the rules. The rule being broken that Stern shut the deal down after signing a new CBA that the trade totally followed....Steve Kerr made a great point by bringing up the fact that Stern made sure his Phoenix Suns lost a playoff series because Amare Stoudemire stood up and got on the court after a hard foul on one of his teammates, and then in the next playoff game he had to sit because of a suspension under the rule of a player can't get up and get on the court after a foul (or something like that).
All I know is the NBA was a sports league that was on the up I would have put it second behind the NFL. After a lockout and now an unruly David Stern, I'd say it's having a problem and who knows, BUT on a happy NBA Side Note, LeBron :)

d00de of the Month Update
These pictures pretty much cover Calvin's night. He had 6 receptions for 69 receiving yards. He faced constant pressure and double teams. The Lions lost to the Saints 31-17....Hopefully next week the d00de of the Month can get some monster numbers and BIG highlights because they face the struggling Vikings, who let Tim Tebow throw on them last week. Come on MEGATRON come on.
