Two drive killers.

Shooting ourselves in the foot with penalties not helping either. Twice now.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Well whatever happens tonight, at least Rod Black isn't doing the color! Thanks London Olympics!

Not looking much different than last week so far, looking for some results to back up that attitude.

Our front seven continues to dominate our INT totals.
