Patriots at the Colts: Game of the Century

I don't know about any of you all, but I am more excited about this game than I have been in years for any game. Only time I have been this excited about a regular season game was probably the last time the Lions were playing Green Bay at Lambaeu 100 years ago trying to decide who would get the home game for the first round of the playoffs that year. The early spread on the game was New England at -4 and it was sending betters to the Stratosphere Las Vegas. People seem to see another blow out coming from the Pats and jumping all over that line. I am thinking it may settle in the 9-10 range. Pats have been favored by 16.5 the last 2 weeks so seeing his spread has people jumping.

This game has all the feel of a major upset and the season turning from talk of the Pats going undefeated to Indy being the team to do it after this week. Hard to say. The Pats are a machine and are mocking the league by running up scores. Ticked off about accusations of cheating. Wanting payback from the knock off in the AFC Championship game from last year. Losing the last 3 to the Super Bowl Champion Colts.

Are you ready for some real football? This is THE game.

Tigers Trade for Edgar Renteria

Whoot! Gotta love when your GM goes right out and snags an important need on the first day of trading. The Tigers traded young pitcher Jair Jurrjens who had a couple decent games last season down the stretch, and minor leaguer Gorkys Hernandez. Fans had already gotten their personalized pens for Gorkys like he is supposed to be the next Willie Mays apparently. The silly prospect lovers keep reveling in the Randy Smith Era and do not realize the Tigers are actually good. This is what you do when you are ready to win now. You trade unknowns for knowns and make the current team better. Just like last year when Dombrowski raped the Yankees for an oft-injured ferner to get a Hall of Famer in Sheffield.

THE KID IS 3 YEARS AWAY!

Get it through your heads. This trade is AWESOME. Renteria was the BEST thing we could have gotten in the off season not named Alex Rodriguez. We have prospects still. We didn't destroy our farm system again. We got a proven player for 2 guys half of you probably never even heard of until today.

When was Gorkys going to play? He's behind Granderson, Maggs, and Maybin. 3 guys that are either really the next Willie Mays, or practically MVP candidates.

This trade is phenomenal.

Go Tigers!
