It must've been REALLY cold. :sweat:

49'ers managed to pull a rabbit out of hat by beating the Buc's, despite the Buc's outgaining them offensively 2 to 1. Turnovers were even I believe.


Browns choked... had a chance to clinch a playoff spot. Feel sorry for all of the long suffering Cleveland fans. On top of that, the Warriors beat the Cavaliers too this weekend. :hehe:


Favre... he's a warrior... but I'm not convinced that his injuries did not affect him this weekend. Hopefully he'll be able to get healthier during the bye week.

I don't really care for either of the teams playing or if the Patriots go undefeated in the regular season. I just want to watch a football game.

From Yahoo! Sports:

Parcells begins Dolphins shakeup

Bill Parcells' shakeup of the Miami Dolphins began Monday with the firing of general manager Randy Mueller.

Assistant director of player personnel Mike Baugh and college scouting coordinator Rick Thompson also departed.

Also at risk of being fired was coach Cam Cameron, who said he would discuss his future with Parcells this week. On Sunday, the Dolphins became only the eighth team to finish 1-15.

Parcells began work Thursday as executive vice president of football operations.

Mueller was the Dolphins' general manager for three seasons but was in charge of personnel decisions only since coach Nick Saban left a year ago.

Mueller received mixed reviews for his moves in 2007, which included the acquisition of free-agent linebacker Joey Porter and the selection of receiver Ted Ginn Jr. and quarterback John Beck in the draft.

Mueller was general manager of the New Orleans Saints in 2000-01.

Bowl games galore tomorrow... And tops on my list is the Sugar Bowl: Hawaii-Georgia... :thumbsup:

Other news: Rick Neuheisel is officially the new coach at UCLA. :victory:

Dang, I turned on the TV at 8:45am and there's already a football game on: Mizzou and Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl... :sweat:

I guess it's gonna be nonstop football all day. :victory:

[/list:u]Nolan gives up control, keeps coaching job[/list:u]
By Michael Silver, Yahoo! Sports
January 1, 2008

Mike Nolan will keep his job as the coach of the San Francisco 49ers but will relinquish final say over personnel decisions, Yahoo! Sports has learned.

After two days of deliberation, 49ers owners John and Denise DeBartolo York decided Tuesday to retain Nolan, who has two years left on the five-year contract he signed before the 2005 season. His 16-32 record over three seasons, including a 5-11 mark in '07, put his job in jeopardy, and he will likely make changes to his coaching staff.

Nolan, who has also been the 49ers' de facto general manager since joining the franchise, agreed to give up front-office control as a condition of his return. The franchise will hire a general manager to assume those duties, and the leading contender is believed to be current vice president of player personnel Scott McCloughan.

So, I guess that means you're taking a 50% pay cut. [/list:u]

Hawaii's getting pounded so far by Georgia, 24-3, in the 2nd quarter... :sweat:

Warriors still getting manhandled by the Bulldogs, 31-3. :shakehead:

It's only the 3rd quarter, but the Warriors aren't showing any signs of life. :sweat:

I'm not watching it right now. At one point in the first half, the channel got snowy and I think that they were trying to spare us the humilation. :sweat:

Good decision.

It's 41-10, with two minutes remaining. :sweat:

Oh well. It was a good run by the Warriors and it got them some national exposure. :)
