NFL Playoffs

Yesterday and today were Divisional round. Yesterday the Baltimore Ravens beat the Tennessee Titans and the Arizona Cardinals beat the Carolina Panthers. The Ravens lost to the Titans earlier in the year 10-13, but they got revenge and won 13-10. Also, the Panthers beat the Cardinals 27-23, then in the playoffs the Cardinals got revenge and won 33-13. The Ravens had just come off a win over the Dolphins and had a lot of momentum going into the game, which helped pull of the number one seeded Titans. Then the Cardinals went into Carolina, where the Panthers haven't been beaten at home, and took over the game. I was more shocked that the Panthers got beat because they were the number two seed and were one of the most dynamic teams. The Titans on the other hand were getting to look average as the season went on and looked as if they could be beat.

Today, the Eagles beat the Giants and the Steelers beat the Chargers. The Eagles and Giants split their series during the season, but both teams won the games on their opponents field. The Steelers beat the Chargers again at home, by a land slide. The Chargers were without L.T, which doesn't help because he is one of the best players in the league even though he's having a down year. I hope that next week the Ravens will beat the Steelers even though the Steelers won both meetings during the season, and that the Cardinals beat the Eagles.

Who do you want to win in the Conference Championships next weekend? Then who do you want to win the Super Bowl out of the teams that remain?

BCS National Championship Game

Thursday night is the biggest game of the season between Oklahoma Sooners and the Florida Gators. The game is being played at Dolphins Stadium, where the Miami Dolphins play, and last weekend their season ended due to their loss to the Baltimore Ravens. But back to the game, the number one rated team in the nation, the Sooners, are not even favored in the game. The Sooners have been getting criticism because they played for the Big 12 Championship, instead of the Texas Longhorns, who had the same record. The Longhorns, also, beat the Sooners earlier in the season and the Longhorn players and coaches have been frustrated with the decision.

I believe that the Sooners will play to show that they belong, but if they get slaughtered then the Longhorns will be outraged by the BCS system. I am honestly really not that interested in the game because I don't like either team, and the game is going to be on until at least midnight. Maybe if the game is on Friday morning, then maybe I will watch it. Since I'm not a fan of either team, the game really doesn't mean much to me, but I still think the USC Trojans were the best team in the nation.

Who do you think will win the game Thursday night? Then who would you say is the best team in the nation?

Carmelo Anthony

The Denver Nuggets small forward has a broken bone in his hand and will miss 3 weeks. This has to be devastating for a team that is on the rise and trying to stay in the playoff hunt. After acquiring Chauncey Billups the Nuggets have been on fire and look to be a hot team that no one wants to face in the playoffs. This will definitely hurting the team in the long run because the team won't be able to play full strength. The team will learn to play without Anthony and that is the worst thing for a team that is just getting to play as a team.

How do you think the Nuggets will do without Carmelo Anthony? Will it affect them in their run to the NBA title?
