BACK TO BLOGGING!

The last time I wrote a blog was the day before the BYU Utah game. Since then life has been a whirl wind! First I went to Vegas for the weekend. Then I found out I'm going to be a dad. After that came finals week followed right up with a HEAVY dose of Christmas. As soon as Christmas was over it was time to start getting ready for this semester at school. Add in a surprise trip to a Denver Broncos game and top it off with my beloved wife and I taking a much needed Vacation to get away from EVERYTHING! In the midst of all of that you might imagine that I have had very little time to even think about (let alone blog about) sports! So let me catch up

First things first! (pause while I clear my throat...)IN YOUR FACE UTAH!!!!! 26-23!!! I know it was a pretty ugly game! Utah played like Crap! BYU played like Crap! The refs officiated like Crap! Basically it all boils down to this...for the 3rd time in 4 years Utah had a chance to win the but failed when it mattered most. After the first time it happened you could call it luck. After the second time you could call it a coincidence. After three times, its a trend.



I know I'm not the only member of COUGAR NATION who is pretty much on cloud 9 about the fact that there is going to be a COUGAR playing in the super bowl. Check that...there is a COUGAR that is one of the main reasons his team is playing in the super bowl. Not only did Austin Collie have a great season with the colts (good enough to earn him NFL all-rookie team honors) but he also had the best game of his season in the most important game of the year to date for his team, the AFC Championship game. 7 Receptions 123 Yard and one HUGE TD! Nobody can say the he wasn't a difference maker in that game! My prediction...next time Austin collie rolls in to Provo, he'll be sporting a phat SUPER BOWL ring baby! GO COLTS!



Until recently I have been pretty ticked off at the Jazz...those of you who know me well know that I have a "love-hate" relationship with them (i.e. for every time I have exclaimed "GO JAZZ" I have also exclaimed "STUPID JAZZ"). Deep Down I am a devoted loyal Jazz fan, they just tick me off once in a while. The beginning of the season saw me say "STUPID JAZZ" a lot! But recently they seem to have turned things around a bit. Two weeks ago they were in 11th place and not even in the playoff picture. Now they are in 6th place and climbing! This has made me quite happy! This past few weeks has had a lot less "STUPID JAZZ"'s and a lot more "GO JAZZ"'s (ask Sarah...she'll tell you all about it! D-Will has gotta be a shoe in for all star this year. Go Jazz!



Hopefully I'll be able to keep up with it a lot better than before. Until Next time. Bon Voyage!
