--Firstly, I apologize for my blog apathy of late. For some godawful reason, I have been somewhat busy lately and whereas Hoodwinked is normally high on Matt's priority list, it has somewhat fallen substantially for the past two weeks. But now that the holidays are over, I don't have school, lacrosse doesn't pick up for a while, and there isn't enough snow to enjoy snowboarding, I will end up devoting 78% of my time to this, as unfortunate as it is for a person to have that little of a life, it still remains the truth.
--Five weeks ago, I said the Broncos were going to 9-7 and miss out on the playoffs. While that is still a definite possibility, they probably will make the playoffs. With Jay Cutler, you are guarteed at least one mistake per game, which is expected at this age. But with Cutler you can also guarantee three-four shots downfield which can end up in big games. This is the reason Shanahan went with Cutler over Plummer. With Plummer you're guaranteed three-four mistakes per game, and no shots downfield because he can't throw that far. Cutler is going to be one hell of a quarterback. Plus, if Denver wins next week they will be the four seed which would send them to New England where the Broncos beat Tom Brady and the Pats earlier this season. Shanahan has had Billichiek's number for the past three seasons (Denver is 4-0 against them), and I think they are the team that Denver has the best chance of defeating.
--Despite the Bills missing postseason play for the seventh straight season, there was significant progress made this season for the Billy's. Losman has looked halfway decent at times (I still maintain they need to stray away from him), and their young defense has had their moments. Although I think they are much better than year's past, I don't think they are going to make the playoffs in the coming years. The AFC is just too tough with three-four quality teams per division whereas the Bills won't be able to jump the Patriots in the division nor either the , Ravens, Bengals, Jaguars, Titans, Broncos, Chiefs, Steelers, Chargers, Colts, or Jets, in the next few years for the wildcard.
--Vince Young is unbelievable. I thought for sure that he would be the worst amongst the three rookie quarterbacks taken in this year's first roud, but I was dead wrong. He is one of a kind, and can score on any given play from any given distance. Even Michael Vick didn't posses the pure running ability of Vince Young. The crazy thing about him though, he has improved significantly over the past six weeks as a passer. If he ever can pass as good as he can run, then he might go down as one of the best ever. That team in Tennessee is young, and not very talented. Not eight win worthy, but he elevates the play of everyone around him. It's a lot like when he was in Texas. He is on a team with a solid core of players, but he stands out like Eugene wearing a fluorescent orange shirt on the dance days in gym class. He's fantastic. Four weeks ago when the Titans were on a non-important, non-playoff influential three game winstreak somebody asked me, I think it was Josh Valleta, "How many championships do you think the Titans will win with Vince Young?" I replied with a smirk, laugh, and a resounding, "none." Mainly because they won't ever win the division as long as Manning is a Colt. But Manning can't play forever, and there is a seven or eight year difference between Manning and Young. Once Manning is gone, and if the Titans keep building and getting better, and they hold on to Vince Young, then I don't doubt they could win at least one.
--Christmas was fantastic. Pretty standard. Although I do wish that I was younger and still possessed the belief in Santa Claus because I recall that waking up on Christmas morning was always my favorite moment of the year when I was a youngster. I miss those days.

Denver will be the 5 seed, not 4.
Vince Young will win atleast 1 MVP award or Superbowl, and more than likely the superbowl MVP. And if any one is wondering my sudden decline in the quality of my life is more than likely going to lead to my own blog.
I meant Denver will be the 5 seed and play New England, the four seed.
My bag gangstas, or just gangsta because I'm 90% sure that you are my last reader
