Do Your Homework!

I’ve been paying more attention to the national sports media lately, since they’re talking a lot about a team I support. I feel led to join the mass of Seattle fans who feel slighted, feel there is a lack of respect. A local sports radio talk show host went off on a caller yesterday, asking him, what’s the big deal about respect? Who cares? And the caller summed it up perfectly – “It’s important because it makes me feel good!” He sounded like a dork, but we’re all a bunch of dorks our here and we’re tired of feeling awful about our teams.

My current wish is that the national guys would do their homework before spouting off. Joe Theisman was pontificating on Seattle’s offensive line, talking about “They’ve got two great tackles - Walter Jones on one side, and Gray on the other, these young guys, and they’re good!”

Walter Jones is in his 9th year. Chris gray is in his 13th year…and he’s not a tackle – he’s a guard! Bonehead.

However, all was forgiven when Captain Compound-Fracture picked the Feisty Blue Jackals to win on Sunday.
