FFS
What a crazy weekend. Bucs lose and look bad, again. The Gators go to the wire agains the Vols. Our hometown Bulls are a quiet 3-0. And the mighty Canes and Noles fall to teams they once enjoyed stomping.

The End Is Nigh Upon Us
The season is nearing its end. For the colleges the lights were turned out more than a month ago for most. The dark times loom. This year we do have the solace of a real hockey season to keep our thirst for plastic armor clad gentlemen engaged in battle. With just the Super Bowl and Pro Bowl remaining, major football has but 120 minutes left.

Diet TALB
know that I promised training camp news for the next edition of TALB, but enough little things happened that I thought I should run them down before I forgot about them. But honestly, other than some comical occurances, the news from the world of the oblong spheroid has been light at best.

…On The Clock
Welcome to another mid-off-season edition of TALB. In store for you today are discussions about the draft, the 2005 NFL schedule, and the other sundry news items that have cropped up in the last few weeks. The
last off-season edition was pretty light in content. Prepare for a butt-numbing (and probably brain numbing) installment this time around.

The Bitter End
The major football season is now complete (who watches the Pro Bowl?) and we are now beset with the lonely time until training camp opens. TALB rejoices in the fact that the Eagles, so often left watching some other team hoist the Halas, were able to take the next step and watch someone else hoist the Vince. Did Andy Reid remind anyone else of Santa Claus on Sunday? He had the reading glasses going on, and when he has his play sheet down around his mouth it was almost like a beard. And Randall Gay jokes are still funny. TALB is 13 years old at heart, sue me.

Lulled To Sleep, Then BAM!
hate it when there’s a week off before the Super Bowl. The only thing on TV on the weekend were “all-star” shows from guys like Madden and Howie Long. But we did get our first taste of Arena ball for this season. Well, on to the TALB.

Defeated
The Professor said to me just before the end of 2004 that I had a chance to be happy thrice this weekend, with the Bucs, Gators, and Thunderers playing games they could win. Alas, not a one of them could pull out a victory. The Gators and Bucs looked, to say it plainly, pathetic.
