What SPORTS Did You Watch Today? - 2019

New year, new thread. Sports fans, go nuts.

Watched the Fiesta Bowl.  Talk about "chippy"; three ejections.

Now watching the Rose Bowl.

Watched Kentucky get to 10 wins! Yay!

I watched the Citrus Bowl. Kentucky kicked ass. Loved those helmets!! Never seen that before. The chrome! Now watching the Rose Bowl.

I was watching portions of the Citrus Bowl too.  My friend at work is a HUGE Penn State fan so naturally I was rooting against them.  I thought Kentucky had it locked up going into the 4th quarter but Penn St. attempted a valiant comeback.  Thankfully they fell a field goal short so now I can give him crap.

Damn Rose Bowl is sucking though.  I don't like "THE Ohio State" but they sure are dominating Washington at the half.

Watched the Bridgestone Classic with the Bruins beating the Blackhawks 4 -3.

Damn the Bruins won? I was curious on that. The KNIGHTS play later today so I know I will be watching that!

This Rose Bowl is definitely boring.

Yeah the Rose Bowl was so boring I switched over to Smackdown.

It's a sin to leave a game before the end!! You're missing a good (scary for me) finish.

I've been flipping back and forth.  I saw Washington go for two points to at least give them a shot at an onside kick and game-tying field goal but when they blew that I went back to Smackdown.

Good! I have this philosophy about leaving sports games too soon: I might sit through a lot of crappy 4th quarters, but you can't be a part of (one of or the) greatest comeback(s) if you don't see it through. I still remember the dumb Miami Heat fans banging on the doors to get back in during the finals when the Heat had that killer comeback. Just think, what kind of story would many of us have if we turned off the Oilers/Bills game back in 1992?

Anyhow, yeah, I've turned off some Bowl games, but I do it in fear. NFL games, especially Playoffs, I never abandon.

OHIO!!

I know the feeling.  I will NEVER leave a baseball post-season game early again!!!!

Know what I missed?????  David Freese's game winning homerun in Game 6 of the 2011 World Series against Texas.   A classic moment in Cardinals' history and I missed it because I gave up and went to bed.  Never again.

Oh, man!!! What a memory. I'm sitting at the Fire Station that night in Texas and we caught a run with the Rangers up 7-4...we're feeling good and anxious to get back to the Station to enjoy the victory. Stupid old lady with a beeping smoke alarm. Change the battery!!! Anyhow, we come back to 7-5 right when NELSON CRUZ steps forward instead of back and they tie! Well, what you missed, we had to suffer through. At least you woke up a winner.

Watched the Penguins win their 8th game in a row shutting out the Jets 4-0.

Just watched the Colts knock off the Titans.

The Colts made it look easy

I watched that too.  That wasn't even close.

Unfortunately I won't be able to see the second WC game tonight because my cable system is fighting with Tribune Broadcasting who owns my local Fox affiliate.  Typical, two billion dollar companies squabbling over what probably amounts to "pocket change" for either one and as usual the consumer gets screwed.

That's a shame you can't watch that. I hope that the Seahawks can beat the waaay overrated Cowboys. They should be thankful that the Redskins suffered all those injuries because they wouldn't even be sniffing the p!ayoffs.

Just watched the Chargers put out the Ravens.

Same here.


Now watching the Eagles vs the Bears.  Talk about an "I don't care" game...I don't really care much for either team. In fact I don't really like anybody in the post-season this year so I guess I'll just pull for whoever is playing New England.

Watched the Panthers dispose of the Ravens and now have the Eagles and Bears game on.

You watched what?????

*Cue Twilight Zone music*

I have no idea why auto correct changed Ravens to Panthers. Maybe even auto correct hates the Ravens!
