Consider yourself lucky if your weekend plans actually held up. This was a big sports weekend, so plenty of room for neglect starting with college football on Saturday.
USC beat
Ohio State in their 10th straight win over a
Big Ten team.
Houston beat
Oklahoma State and
Notre Dame was upset by
Michigan, but probably no more upset than you were about playing second fiddle to a bunch of men running around on a field.
Michigan now ranks in the
top 25 with this win.
If you caught attitude with your man, chances are it wasn't nearly as bad as the 'tude that
Serena Williams gave
U.S. Open officials when called for a foot fault on her second serve. Net net (no pun intended) she busted a raquet and kindly uttered 4-letter explotives to the line judge, cost herself the game and $10,500 in fines. But when you own part of the
Miami Dolphins, that's lunch money. Speaking of lunch,
Roger Federer had his opponent,
Novac Djokovic, for just that and advanced to the final with the aid of a fancy between-the-leg shot that led to his win.
On to pro football.
Donovan McNabb of the
Philadelphia Eagles fractured a rib late in the game. Cutie pie
Mark Sanchez (see Men in Uniform) played well in the
NY Jet's opener and
Drew Brees of the
New Orleans Saints threw for
6 touchdowns Sunday--very impressive.
Also impressive was
Tiger Wood's showing this weekend at the BMW Championship. Saturday he finished
9 under par and Sunday went on to finish up the remainder of the child's play. This is his
sixth victory of the year and it earns him the number one seed in the final tournament of the Fex Ex Cup.
So, as you can see, there was a lot going on this weekend and more to come, but this should help you get a little closer to his heart and help you score a few touchdowns of your own.
