NBA locked out, NFL locked up!

   First things first, sorry for the wait. Here we go again sports fans, another lockout. Just when we thought that things would go back to normal. You know,the NBA and the NFL all weekend long, here we go again. The NBA lockout seems to be a little bit more difficult to fix.We the fans think that a bunch of spoiled millionaires and billionaires should be able to fix simple financial problems. "You think." So let us just embrace the thought of no Lakers vs Heat, no Celtics vs Bulls, no uncle Bob telling me how Lebron is better than Kobe. At least we still have football on Thanksgiving. Which by the way is going to finally be interesting. Because this year we have the Packers verses the Lions. Yes!Yes! You heard me right. For the first since..well since for as long as I can remember the Lions are finally worth watching. Thanks to Megatron aka Calvin Johnson the Lions are a good team. Some sports writers seem to think they may be the only team to beat the Packers this season. But not me.

   It's week nine and the 2011 Super Bowl Champions Greenbay Packers are looking like the soon to be 2012 Super Bowl Champions. The Packers are undefeated and looking good and the Pittsburgh Steelers  are starting to play like that team that made it to the big game last year. If things stay the same we could be seeing a repeat of last year's Super Bowl. I hope I'm wrong about that one. I would love to see the Falcon's battle the Steelers for the championship, but that's just wishful thinking. The falcons do have in my opinion a fairly lite schedule remaining,compared to the first five games of the season. Let's wait to see what happens next football fans.
