Football Season is Here!
I know that most of my posts are theological in nature, but I just can't help myself this year. If you come each week looking for deep thoughts, then let me encourage you to come back next week. Today's post is all about my favorite sport football. The theological bigrevcoop will be back next week.
Let me start with the NFL. I am a huge Browns fan. I have been from the start. One of my biggest regrets in life is living in Louisville when Art Modell stole the Browns, and took them to Baltimore. I had absolutely no one to cry with. Most folks in Kentucky did not understand my hurt. I longed to be near Cleveland so that others may feel the pain right along with me.
I predict Cleveland to be 8 and 8 this year. My biggest concern for the Browns in their division. They have to play the Bengals, Ravens, and the Steelers twice. This is one of the toughest divisions in all of football. I think the Browns may be better than an 8 and 8 team on paper. I just think their schedule is too difficult.
I am also concerned with the quarterback position. I like Charlie Frye, but I do not know how productive he will be. He has only played in a handfull of games. It takes a quarterback a few years to fully develop. We can only hope that he develops fast and good.
My prediction for the Superbowl is the Colts over the Panthers. I am sure a lot of other people will pick the same two. I think it is Manning's turn to shine. He is the best QB in football, and I think he will win two superbowls in the next four years.
As for college, I think the polls have it right. The Buckeyes our number one in my heart and number one in the polls. I simply believe their offense is too good to be stopped. I know that they are replacing a lot of Defensive players, but we have the players to replace them. The Ohio State Defense will still be one of the best in the nation. However, their Offense will be handsdown the best in the nation.
September 9th is the scariest game on the Schedule. The Buckeyes play Texas at Texas. Two weeks later is another scary game. They play Iowa at Iowa. They play Penn State and Michigan at home this year. I see the Buckeyes playing USC in the Fiesta Bowl. By the way, The Buckeyes just don't lose in the Fiesta Bowl.
As for Michigan. I believe this will be Coach Carr's last season. I don't think Michigan will make the same mistake as Ohio State did with Cooper. When the Buckeyes spank Michigan by three touchdowns this year, Carr will be forced out. You can't lose to your arch-rival 4 out of 5 years and survive.
For the next 4 months, you will know how I will spend my weekends. Football is here, and I cannot be any happier. Go Bucks and Go Browns! And by the way, my second favorite team is the one playing the Steelers and the one playing Michigan.
