Vikings 10, Cowboys 16
Another loss and 1-3 in the preseason = Big Whoop. I didn’t really catch much of the game tonight partially because this game was basically a glorified tryout for both teams and because there were 2 other games going on that I was interested in. Even though I initially mitigate our loss, it still was disappointing to see our 3rd and 4th string QBs (TJaxx and Frerotte both sat out) suck it up. JD Booty threw an interception on his first pass. I know it’s only his first year, but I really don’t have much faith in him making a significant impact in the NFL. He was spoiled with the talent surrounding him in USC–don’t forget Stanford beat them last year…HA! Even despite his poor performance in the preseason, the vikes will likely cut Bollinger in favor of keeping a younger player in their system to develop. I’m pumped for the season to begin, and there’s not a more appropriate way to kick off the season than against the Packers at Lambeau.
Twins 2, Athletics 3
FUCKKKKK! I can’t believe we keep doing this. How the hell do we keep losing to these shitty teams? First Seattle and now the A’s. We honestly have to stop playing at the level of our opponents, especially when they suck. Not to mention, our bullpen can’t hold their own on the road. They have like a 6 something ERA compared to their 1.9 ERA at home. PATHETIC. The White Sox must be loving this. I have nothing left to say.
On a higher note:
Stanford 36, Oregon St 28
Wow, this was pretty unexpected. I’m actually somewhat disappointed I wasn’t back at school yet, so that I could’ve gone to the game. It should be a pretty awesome year. We might win more than 4 games this year! One down…4 more to go! This win basically was thanks to Toby Gerhart, the O-Line, and the Linebackers. OSU almost came back at the end to tie it up, but the sophomore WR Catchings made an overzealous move around the 1 yrd line when he decided to extend towards the endzone but much to this chagrin, he fumbled the ball and it rolled into the endzone = TOUCHBACKSTANFORDWINSWOOOOO.
