When I first read this story, I thought the Marlins had a contest to design the jerseys that only kids eight years and under could participate in.
9. Wilson Ramos Found Unharmed in Venezuela
I’m
a fairly oblivious person, so I thought kidnapping only still happened in
movies and on television. Happy
to see Ramos is safe, as he is a key part of the Nationals future.
8. Jonathan Papelbon Bolts Boston, Joins Phillies
Sadly,
another of my favorite
Red Sox players is leaving. The time is right though, as the Phillies inked
Paps for $50 million. Boston was wise to not match and save some cash for
Jacoby Ellsbury.
7. North Carolina Beats Michigan St. On a Boat
Can’t
say that I care about college
basketball in November, but this story gives me an (weak) excuse to post
the following video.
6. Junior dos Santos Rocks Cain Velasquez
The fight
itself is noteworthy, but the greater significance is that the event was
the first to air in primetime on network television. UFC and FOX made a mistake
only showing one fight (the appeal of UFC is that even if the main event sucks,
there’s four other fights that have the potential of being good), but expect
them to get it right next time.
5. Colts Take Two Game Lead in “Suck For Luck”
Sweepstakes
With
Sunday’s outcomes in Miami, Cleveland, and Indianapolis,
we’re one step closer to the doomsday scenario of Peyton Manning being on the
trading block.
4. 49ers Hold Off Giants
I’m
not ready to buy into the 49ers as a viable Super Bowl contender, but they did
go a long way in securing a first round bye in the NFC with their win over the
Giants.
3. Patriots Quiet Critics, Take Control of AFC East
Is
it just me, or has Rob Gronkowski stepped it up a notch ever since he appeared
in a Twitter picture with a porn star?
2. God’s QB Completes Two
Passes, Broncos Win Anyway
We can officially say that there is a higher power at
work for the Broncos after they won in Kansas City
with Tom Osbourne’s playbook he used for the 1994 Nebraska Cornhuskers.
1. Jimmie Johnson
Officially Can’t Win Sixth Sprint Cup
Most
gear-heads are excited about the brilliant
battle for the title between Carl Edwards and Tony Stewart. I am too, but
I’m really over the moon about Johnson (and his douche bag crew chief Chad
Knaus) not winning another championship.
