National Champs

I went over to Bob's last night to watch the Rose Bowl with Bob, his boys, Kohne and Joe. It was one of the best played, closest football games I've ever seen. There was so much hype around both teams, and players on both teams, that anything was going to be anti-climactic from how they'd built the match-up up all year. Everyone at the Ray's house was rooting for Texas, and the talk of Vince Young was reminiscent of the SNL Mike Ditka sketches (Vince Young vs. the entire 1966 Dallas Cowboys, who do you pick?). Before the game, they had Will Farrell and Matthew Mcconaughey do a point, counter point about the game. It was hilarious, including Will Farrell having two Heismen trophies sticking out of his ears. "It smells like waffles". Amazing game. I'm tired.
