Happy Thread--Post when coach/player/reporter does something good
Too much negativity...let's get going with some positives in sports
I'll go first hats off to the Cowboys, who are using the mid-range passing game. It seems that football has forgotten the beautiful 10 to 20 yard pass. It's nice to see the Cowboys opening that back up, which makes for some fun football to watch. |

i'll go again
kudos to the Pac10 they play a true round-robin, unlike the Big11Ten, and they schedule harder than anyone out of conference. They even play true road games. |

Re: Happy Thread--Post when coach/player/reporter does something good
Lets go with Jack Del Rio and Dirk Koetter.
Take away that odd spike at the end of the 2nd quarter. They out-coached what I think is a top 2 coach in the NFL in Mike Shanahan. They gameplanned perfectly for a tough road game and Mike Smith did a great job as the defensive coordinator. Having your team stuff the run without your best defensive player up the middle is something that needs recognition. My other is Ken Wisenhunt. He realized his young QB was struggling and brought in Warner in a situation where he could shine. I hate seeing QB's switch around as only teams with stability can win, but it was one situation where I don't mind it. He came out today and said Leinert is starting so there is no controversy. |

Seems like a good place to thank Adrian Peterson for making the otherwise painful experience of watching the Vikings play a little easier to endure.

[/ QUOTE ] I disagree. I think part of Leinart's development is going up against defenses like Baltimore. They played more wide-open with Warner in there, why not leave Leinart in and expand the playbook for him? Although kudos for making sure there is no QB controversy. |

Hats off to Mike McCarthy - despite a few bone head play calls, he is running the west coast offense extremely well and calling some great passing plays.

Good job Detroit Tigers.
In the middle of Sunday's game, they made an announcement to recognize KC's manager, Buddy Bell, who is stepping down at the end of the season. He used to manage the Tigers. They sucked then. The Royals suck now. However, Bell seems to be a nice guy and obviously comes from a good baseball family. Also, I believe cancer in the family played a role in his decision to resign. Classy guy. Classy move by the Tigers. |

After the Mineesota Vikings realized they f'd up they gave Troy Williamson his paycheck back from last week. Williamson mans up and donates the money to charity.
