The U!!!

 THE U IS BACK!!!

Well, maybe!  One more win and all the pain that the last 20+ years that has been endured will be washed away!  All of the anger after that Ohio State game, well The U got some revenge New Years Eve.  But a W on January 19th will in my opinion wipe it all away!

When Carson Beck was at Georgia I wanted to hate the guy.  He was good but he wasn’t one of those “that’s my QB” guys to me.  He did enough to win all the way up to the SEC Championship last year.  He may have been good enough to lead Georgia deeper.  We will never know.  When he committed to Miami out of the transfer portal I was like “EEEEK”!  I was a little scared.  Just from his tendencies to throw to the other team.  But for the U to be BACK we have to be BECK!

Rueben Bain has been one of the most intimidating figures in my eyes.  I always look at him and hear Bane’s voice from Batman.  Rueben needs to get the sickest facemask they make and get the dark shield.  Add some of the braces and protectors.  Then go break some QBs in half on Sundays next year.  But on January 19th Bain needs to be so close to Fernando Mendoza that he knows what he had for his pregame meal by the smell of his breath. 

When Miami lost to Loserville, sorry I mean Louisville, I thought ok that hurts but the Canes were still in the hunt.  The SMU loss I honestly thought the season was over.  Just with how the rankings were and then the playoff rankings.  On Selection Sunday, when Alabama was announced in I sunk in my couch.  I could feel some tears, that sick feeling rushed over my body.  I thought there was no way of they made it that they committee would jump Miami over Notre Dame.  But then that 10 seed was announced!  My wife was scared for the safety of the furniture in our living room.

Since that SMU loss there hasn’t been a better team.  Winning the last 4 games like Miami did was an accomplishment.  But then to go into the Playoffs and dominate A&M, to go back to Dallas and beat Ohio State like they did.  And then in all honesty they dominated, especially in the first half, Ole Miss even though the score didn’t reflect that.

The amount of anticipation or anxiety I have thinking about January 19th is a whole level.  Indiana is a different beast.  The way they have ran through the two Playoff games is something nobody expected.  I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE INDIANA IS A FOOTBALL SCHOOL!  Sorry I had to get that off my chest.  But when that clock starts in Miami, Bain will be ready.  Toney will be on go!  Carson will be ready to air it out!  And Mario will have them ready!  

So one more time before we are NATIONAL CHAMPIONS… IT’S ALL ABOUT THE U!!!

Arenado to Arizona

      I fell in love with Nolan Arenado's game soon after he was called up by the Colorado Rockies.  I have always had a thing for players that play great defense.  And Nolan is by far one of the best all time with a glove.  Once he became a Cardinal, regardless of my dislike for anything St Louis Cardinal, I still thought of him as one of the game's best players.   When it comes to 3rd baseman, there are not many better.  Nolan has always been one of the best hitters hitting for career average of .282 with 350+ homers.  Nolan has is also a 10x Gold Glove winner.  That ties him for 2nd most by a 3rd baseman in MLB history.  These stats show why he is an 8x All Star. He has grit to his game.  I have a bobble head that has his chin split open from sliding. While with the Rockies, Nolan participated in a charity where he would sign autographs through the mail.  I was able to obtain a few signatures through this and my wi...

MLB! It's time to do something!

      Last night I was laying down about to go to bed, scrolling, and the news of Kyle Tucker signing came across my phone.  In my mind I was like "HOW?!", "WHAT?!?!", and every other confused expression.  How can one team pay the players like they are paying them?  I know as a kid I asked this same question and said the same thing about the Yankees.  I guess it didn't hit me as much because the numbers weren't as big.     The Dodgers over the past few seasons have been basically the "lock" to get the top free agents every off season.  You know how Olive Garden has "Never Ending Salad"?  Well the Dodgers have "Never Ending Pockets" and it isn't fair.  I saw a meme last night after the Tucker deal was announced and the numbers were out.  It showed that between 5 players (Ohtani, Betts, Yamamoto, Tucker, and Snell) the Dodgers are paying over 1.8 BILLION dollars.  Shohei takes up 700 of that million but 5 PLAYERS AT ALM...
