Shout Outs

I neglected to congratulate Justin Morneau for winning the National League batting title on Monday. He had a great season. A "comeback player of the year" type season.

The Royals beat the Angels yesterday in 11. The AL wild card team is still playing like its 1985!

Unranked Arizona knocked off number TWO Oregon in NCAA football last night. Normally that would have thrilled me, but with the new playoff system in place, Oregon can STILL make it to the National Championship Game if they play well the rest of the season. So in effect, one of the largest upsets in recent college history means nothing. That game meant nothing. Last year, that loss by the Ducks would have knocked them out of the title picture completely. It would have been HUGE. Now its meaningless. Just like all the other college games this season. Every loss means no more than a Mulligan in golf.

And finally, a special shutout to Christian Ponder's ineptitude as quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings. He forced me to come up with a new term for how bad the Vikings looked, and how terribly they performed against the Packers. Last night, the Vikings were just ebola.
