Match Of The Week Preview:
(By MikeFromOhio)
 

wasn’t supposed to be a weekend that gave us great games, yet it gave as many as “Separation Saturday” did. Between the instant classic that was Notre Dame vs. Michigan State, to the shocking upset of Boston College by NC State, to the near heart attack that Georgia gave it’s fans against Colorado, the weekend was absolutely spectacular. This week features one real marquee matchup. #1 Ohio State visits Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City to play #13 Iowa. This should be an excellent game. Other notable games are #24 Georgia Tech at #11 Virginia Tech and Alabama at #5 Florida.

Saturday, September 30th, 2006 – 8:00 PM on ABC

at

(1) Ohio State (-7) at (13) Iowa

Ohio State faces easily it’s biggest in conference challenge until the Michigan game in November. This is a sneaky tough game with an Iowa team that dominated Ohio State the last time they played (33-7 in 2004) in Iowa City. That was then and these are both very different teams. Iowa, having escaped Syracuse and played two consecutive uninspired games against Iowa State and Illinois, have a chance to make a lot of noise in the Big Ten and nationally. Ohio State has a chance to keep the dream season going. The key of this game comes down to the battle of the Quarterbacks. If Troy Smith throws 2 interceptions like he did against Penn State, Ohio State will struggle to win this game. Same goes for Iowa and QB Drew Tate. If he struggles or gets rattled like what happened last year against Ohio State, then Iowa will struggle to win this game. In the end I think Ohio State’s defense will continue to play well enough to put this team in position to win the game. Iowa will keep it close, but this Ohio State team went into Austin and won. Iowa can win this game, but I think Ohio State will win this game.

Ohio State 29 – Iowa 17

After last night's win, The Saints versus the Panthers looks to be a whole lot more interesting. Especially since Carolina is still struggling even with it's first victory.

That Judge should be taken out and horsewhipped!
Interesting ruling. To my knowledge the original law did not forbid protest, simply protest withing so many feet on one of our hero's funerals. Isn't that correct?
How did the "judge" even pretend that that was a legal decision, not a political one?

[luvie]

These judges don't seem to care for protocol. They just make arbitrary decisions and hope no one notices. They think we don't pay attention....WRONG!!!!

[GrandEagle]

(having thoughts that can't be posted.......)

It seems people now know we have the hard candy tupperware dillywhacker stocked full of goodies. The supply dwindles, and then someone brings up a bag from a box they've gotten too.

With 12 hour shifts, smokes, and lots of coffee--hard candy helps with the dragon breath. hehehehe

How's your afternoon?

[tongue-tied]

Woohoo! Now we can break out the big blue font...

Cubs win!

[Lady Jag]

Hey, GE! I'm probably going to skip that Lions meeting tonight. One of my cats decided to play Stampede last night - on me - and the lack of sleep is catching up.

[GodBlessUSA]

My son and I just returned from the beach. We noticed that there are some Army Soldiers visiting the Coast Guard Station. We also watched the Coast Guard, cruising out in the inflatable.

It was beautiful. I only saw one butterfly today. Instead we saw 100's and 100's of birds, Swifts or Swallows migrating. I have to id them yet. I have to resize and edit. If I have a better photos, I will post them.

Totally incredible! They were right next to us. My dog didn't know what to make of them. :) Wonder what we will see tomorrow migrating. LOL

[GodBlessUSA]

Amen.
HUGS!

[GrandEagle]

I also find that to be a big problem myself!
Rest well my FRiend!
