....and, although this is the Aviation Message Board, what else besides flying and job issues do crews discuss during cruise? Thus, making football an aviation topic.
To lend further credence to this argument, Denver Broncos kicker Jason Elam has a Commercial certificate. Dan Dierdorf is a pilot, too.
I thought the idea of the BCS was to set up a playoff system. I don't understand the ratings. They still need to work out the kinks in it.
I never was much of an O.U. fan until I moved to Oklahoma. The radio station for which I was working was the O.U. flagship station. I participated in the broadcast in one capacity or another for five years and got caught up in the hoopla. I kind of lost interest when I moved to Arizona, but that was the time when Barry Switzer brought in those rapists and other criminals to play for him. Since I've been back in Colorado, I've pulled for C.U. At least I could dislike Nebraska in both states!
No doubt about it, though O.U. has an excellent team. C.U. was flat, or something, during the Big-12 playoff, despite the yardage gained on the ground.
Really, the school was an excellent program in Colorado is Colorado State. They are competitive every year and go to a bowl every year. I give Sonny Lubick credit for staying in Fort Collins when, I'm sure, he could go to more glamorous programs.
The Broncos mathematically are still in the playoff race, but they're going to need plenty of help. And, Brian Griese needs to stop making so many bad throws. That's been his tendency, I think because he doesn't have the arm strength. As a Denver fan for forty years I hate Oakland and Al Davis, but the Raiders have a good team this year. I hate the Chiefs maybe more, but they do have a good offense. I think that Mike Shanahan can beat a Greg Robinson-coached defense, especially with Ray Crockett at corner.
