Downward Spiral

With the Bears' season over before the playoffs started, football has lost a little meaning. And with the Bulls' season not looking so good, barring a coaching change, basketball is losing it's appeal too. But there's the Blackhawks...honestly haven't lived up to my commitment to watch hockey this year. Thankfully, I think I only told one person the commitment. Did watch some of the winter classic though. Guess that should count. It is more hockey than I watched at this point in the season last year. So, commitment fulfilled.

On the Bears:

Glad they went out with a bang. Good to know Peterson didn't break 200 yards again and great to see them dominate the Packers. Not all was lost. Hopefully be able to continue that momentum into next year. Grossman will have to fight (as the Judge puts it) porn-stached Orton for his job back. Maybe Brennan? Either way, if the D can get back in their game the QB position should be the only problem. Especially since we have our own Peterson...

Moving on with the Bulls:

Dropping Skiles? Hope that's the smart move. Good luck Skiles and thanks for the resurrection. As for the team, they should be performing better than they are regardless of coaching. Too much talent on that team to be playing like they are. Not that they are the Celtics or anything but, definitely not the Knicks.

Time for Bolling:

No, I didn't spell it wrong. Not the sport bowling but, the director/producer/writer, Uwe Boll. This guy has to be one of the worst directors of all time if not the worst. Of course, this is all just personal opinion (a lot of people's personal opinion), but I am yet to see a even decent movie from him. Nobody I know that has seen any of his work has disagreed with me. He makes the live-action Dead or Alive and Super Mario Bros. look like masterpieces. This man seems hell bent on destroying game franchises one at a time. It's not like you expect anything good to come out of a movie based on a game, but you certainly don't expect the stuff Boll spews out. Given all that, at least he stands by his work and doesn't change his views for anyone or anything. Not always a good thing for the movie-goer. Oh well, to each his own.
