commentary...

sometimes,i get somber thinking about people whom i deeply miss,and i believe that this is one of those nights... i have tried to make both my blogs interesting to read,and i do love writing these blogs... NFL football starts September 4th,with probably the game of the early season,the Packers playing the Seattle Seahawks,in "12th Man" land(Seattle)... pundits are hyping on the fact that the Seahawks are Super Bowl XLVIII Champions,and the so-called "fact" that the Seahawks' defense are basically unbeatable... folks,i hate to mention the real fact that it was last season that the Seahawks won Super Bowl XLVIII,not this season(yet),and that it is not the same defense that Seattle had last season... on offense and defense,they have lost key players,via free agency,trades,and basic free agent signings to other teams... do not get me wrong:the Seahawks are still very good(they are Super Bowl Champions,after all),but every team now that they will play this season will give the Seahawks their best shot at beating them... one pundit said at one time this preseason that the differences in every NFL team is basically paper-thin,and i happen to agree,but with one caveat,and that is the fact that injuries happen to every team,including the Seahawks... football is a game that the saying,"anything can happen" is most true,because you can buy the 60's Packers(talent-wise),and still be real dog manure,because football is a game that is basically man to man,in detail,and some days you lose big,even when you are heavily favored,and your team comes out flatter than a crepe and nothing goes right,and the other team hands you your hat... so let pundits talk their pie holes off,and remember that that is the reason that they play the games,all 256 of them,to see who is the best,and even then,the best team does not always win...
