What SPORTS did you watch today?

Watched UNC beat Miami in college football.

I watched the Rousey-Holm UFC prelims.  Reading the results of the main event it looks like Rousey got her ass handed to her.  She even had to go to the hospital after the fight to get her lip stitched up.

Watching the highlights Holm really took it to Rousey.

I like Rousey but I do think she needed to be taken down a peg; she was starting to get really arrogant.  Nobody is unbeatable. And you have to wonder how hard she trained for this fight. She has so many things going on outside of the octagon and she'd had such an easy time of it her last several fights that it would only be natural to try to mail it in.

Today I watched the Rams really stink up the dome against the Bears. Nick Foles is getting worse from week to week. His first several games he was pretty good but then the Rams' receivers started dropping balls and now his throws are either high, late or both. Lots of booing at the dome today.

Steelers vs Browns. This was a weird game. Roethlisberger was not supposed to play due to an ankle/foot injury. Landry Jones, the backup, gets the start but goes down with an ankle injury himself. Dog Killer Vick is deactivated so Roethlisberger has to play and promptly throws for damn near 400 yards and 3 tds. The Steelers end up winning 30-9 but allow Johnny Manziel to throw for near 400 yards as well.

How the heck does Manziel throw for almost 400 yard yet the Browns only end up with 9 points? That is a weird game.

I agree with you 100%. Rousey had became too cocky recently. She is already claiming that she'll "be back". Holm did expose weaknesses in Rousey's game and it will make you wonder how other fighters will be preparing to fight her.

Watching to see if the Bengals will remain unbeaten.

The Bengals may be my "other" team to root for this year.

The Rams are rolling towards their usual "meh" season and the only other team in the NFC that's worth a crap is the Panthers, And if Cam Newton goes down I think that team is done too. The NFL needs somebody, ANYBODY!!!!, to keep the Patriots out of yet another Superbowl and I think I'd like to put my chips on the Bengals.

Well that was a brutal game for the Bengals. The team was totally flat and now a short week to prepare for the Cardinals on Sunday night. Ugh.

JJ Watt "Our goal was to come out here and make the Red Rifle look like a Red Ryder BB gun."

Good line.

Watched most of the Penguins vs Wild game. Pens won 4-3

40! Egads. RIP.

Wow. 40??? Is the cause of death known?

40? That's a shame.

Nephrotic syndrome, which is a fairly rare kidney disorder. He had a kidney transplant in 2004 but it rejected in 2011. He was receiving dialysis and was on the waiting list for another kidney when he died.

That's a shame.   RIP.

Just finished watching Michigan State (with two backup QBs) upset Ohio State.  HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Now I'm watching LSU about to lose for the third week in a row.

YES!!!!! On both.

Watching UFC on FS1.

Watched the Rams suck again. I'm to the point where I really don't care if they leave or not; a decade of mediocrity or worse is enough.

Caught the last quarter of this. Is Foles that bad that they have to start Keenum? He looked totally ineffective.


Followed that up with the Packers/Vikings game. Looks like the Vikings aren't quite ready for prime time yet. And lastly, I see Fox Sports (Bradshaw,Johnson, et al) have gotten out the ky jelly and rubber gloves now that Romo is back with the Cowboys.
