Happy New Year! What’s up, people?
Let’s talk about my Ducks winning the Rose Bowl in those dope mirrored helmets, the BCS title game, and the NFL divisional games this weekend. Will the Pack repeat, is Brady headed to another championship game… or will Tebow Time keep ticking? Stick around for my picks!
First, what was your highlight of the Panthers’ season, and was there any player who caught your eye? I don’t have a single highlight, but every game our team won showed us the way we can play all the time, and what we have to look forward to. One player I was really impressed with was Giants’ receiver Victor Cruz, who had a breakout year. So I’m giving him my Game Changer Award.
As predicted, my Oregon Ducks outgunned Wisconsin 45-38 to win the Rose Bowl for the first time in 95 years. After watching some of the other bowl games, I’d rate the Oregon game as the most exciting one. And I really want to get one of those helmets that Oregon wore!
I wasn’t a big fan of the championship game, and I’m sure neutral fans didn’t find it too exciting with all those field goals. The Crimson Tide’s stifling defense did hold strong, and I respect that. But I have a feeling Coach Chip Kelly’s Oregon offense would’ve smashed ’Bama! We play to score and to win, and they would’ve been worn out running after us. Unfortunately, some early season jitters kept us from being in the title game, but Oregon finished real strong.
Since the NFL regular season ended, all I’ve wanted to do is absolutely nothing. Just resting my body and mind. I’m going to create some more music and just kick back. And I’ve been catching some Charlotte Bobcats games with teammates Jon Beason and Charles Godfrey. We sat right behind the Bobcats’ bench, close to the action. Man, it’s pretty electric, especially when we saw the Heat and their trio of LeBron, Wade and Bosh. From a neutral stance, it’s fun to watch them take over a game.
