So what did we learn this weekend? Many things, friends:
- We learned that it was a bad week to be a Top 10 team in college football
- We learned that outside of the Colts, Cowboys, and Patriots, the rest of the NFL is kinda iffy
- We learned that the New York Mets have a long offseason ahead of them
- We caught Rockies fever!
- We learned that the NFL has nothing better to do than police obscure Internet sites.
This, and more, after the jump.
Here are some of the stories which percolated in SBA this weekend:
- Truly Awful Announcing: Credit AA for noticing that Pam Ward has no clue what a punt is.
- Suck-it Saturday: Deadspin recaps the lowlights of college football’s Top Ten teams. Sadly, there’s not nearly enough Texas hate in this post, but we’ll take it nonetheless. Signal to Noise goes a bit more in-depth on things, including simple truths about Penn State.
- Mike Tomlin is an android: Kissing Suzy Kolber appears to be a bit perturbed at Ben Roethlisberger.
- Invisible Baseball: Lion in Oil rightfully castigates the major sports networks (and others like TBS) for allowing the most compelling day of baseball games to go virtually untelevised.
- Already???: I’m not sure we’re ready for the NBA season yet, but yes…it’s time. The Sports Frog starts their examination of each team in the Association, starting with everyone’s sweethearts, the Atlanta Hawks.
- Pam Ward-free highlight: With Leather summons up the most wicked tackle of the college football weekend.
- He causes enough other people to do it, though: David Carr was handed the keys to the Texans and crashed the franchise. He was handed the keys to the Panthers today and crashed them, too. But at least he never swears, according to this story unearthed by Can’t Stop The Bleeding.
- Great, more Law and Order re-runs: Can’t Stop The Bleeding also uncovered that TBS is apparently cancelling the Atlanta Braves after this season.
