Five Miles and Some College Football

Sunday, November 26th, 2006

In training for the 10K I hope to run on Super Bowl Sunday, I ran five miles yesterday morning for the first time ever. I was impressed with my time, too: 45 minutes and 15 seconds. I certainly was not expecting to maintain 9 minute pace for 5 miles. That ...

My Thoughts on Ohio State Versus Michigan

Sunday, November 19th, 2006

This was that classic combination of Michigan's offensive and defensive units whipping Notre Dame's defensive and ...

I am in my day-after, post-loss hangover today, because last night the number one ranked Ohio State Buckeyes beat my number two ranked Texas Longhorns 24-7. And the score gives an accurate representation of what happened. We got beat, solidly, but we didn't get embarrassed. Our offense couldn't put much ...
