10 Awesome Things That Happened This Weekend (1/11-1/13)

10. Browns Hire Norv Turner as Offensive Coordinator
            I’m glad to see that a NFL team will still employ Norv. He’s a joy to bet against.

9. Philadelphia Eagles Interview Brian Billick For Eight Hours
            Reportedly, Billick talked for seven of them.

8. Albert Pujols Signs On For World Baseball Classic
            Before stumbling over this story, I forgot that the WBC was still an event.

7. Dale Jr. Sparks 12-Car Pileup During Testing Session at Daytona
            Folks not apart of Junior Nation may be quick to point out that Junior appears to be in mid-season form.

6. #2 Michigan Loses at Ohio State
5. #1 Duke Shocked By NC State
            A special doubleheader for this week’s “Big-Time College Basketball Upsets That I Don’t Give A Shit About”, sponsored by Wonderbread.
         
4. Patriots Destroy Texans Again, But Lose Gronkowski For the Season
            Unfortunately for New England, it wasn’t Danny Woodhead who broke his arm.

3. Colin Kaepernick Goes Bonkers, Leaders 49ers Rout of Green Bay
            Doing his best Vince Young in the 2006 Rose Bowl impersonation, Kaepernick destroyed the Packers with his arm and legs. He has raised the ceiling of the 49ers immensely.

2. Falcons Try to Give Game Away, Still Beat Seahawks
            No team has ever deserved to lose more than the Atlanta Falcons did Sunday. They squandered a 20-point fourth quarter lead, which if Seattle would’ve held on, would’ve been the worst fourth quarter collapse in the history of THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. After an improbable go ahead field goal, they botched a squib kick, giving the Seahawks a chance to only gain 15 yards and have a chance for a field goal. We’ll see if karma strikes the Falcons when San Francisco comes to town this Sunday.

1. Manning Interception Sets Up Improbable Ravens Win
            Baltimore is doing everything it can to fill the “Team of Destiny” role that has been required of past Super Bowl champions the past few years. If it wasn’t for Trindon Holliday’s record setting return day, this game wouldn’t of been close.
