My fantasy league football team is so bad this year, I'm thinking of renaming them "2008 Detroit Lions." I'm seriously doubting I'll get a win all year long. But I did something this weekend that I thought would help the Titans. I started Mark Sanchez as my quarterback. No rookie has ever started the season 3-0, so I thought he'd have a terrible game against the Titans. Hey, if I can't win with my fantasy team I might as well help the Titans get their first win of the season. Didn't work. The Jets beat the Titans, and the Titans are now 0-3. Playoffs???? Playoffs???? I guess it could be worse. The Titans are just a quarterback, 3 wide receivers, an offensive line and a defense away from a championship this year. Maybe next year. Or the year after. Or sometime after that.
The Vols won, but it wasn't pretty. Yes, we scored 34 points, but it's obvious to everyone that we're short on talent at quarterback. I read that Jonathan Crompton's father was escorted out of the stadium Saturday night because he took issue with a lady (and the lady's husband) who was booing his son. Someone posted on Tennessee's Scout.com site that Crompton's dad probably took a swing at the guy but missed completely and hit somebody three rows up. It's either laugh or cry this year, so I'm going to try to laugh when I can. Besides, anyone who thought we'd compete for an SEC championship this year is sadly mistaken. It's going to be a few years to get to that point. The depth of talent just isn't there yet.
After what seemed like 4 straight months of rain, we had a beautiful day on Sunday. And it's supposed to be like that all week here. I'm ready for fall.....
