"And the next GG award goes to...."

Ok, so im gonna pass out a few GG's(Good Game's) to a few groups...


First and foremost, The Cleveland Browns. Yes, i also thought we'd take Crabtree(Braylon's fault...), and was more than a little confused when i read center from Cal. but hey, i guess Fraley's gettin old and we'll need a replacement(he can probably play LG/C/RG) some time. The rest of the draft went well enough(Jamie Dukes needs to do a little research before talking trash about the Browns Draft....), needed a reciever or 2 and got some good LBs as well. Going into minicamp the spotlight was on Mang(enious)ini to give us fans something to hope for, and needless to say he delivered(apart from the Joe Jurevicius/K2 situations >_>). We picked up some solid Veterans to help the rookies and we should see an improved offense *crosses fingers*. I hate the way they handled the JJ situation and now its come back to bite em. And, honestly.....A 5TH ROUND DRAFT PICK NEXT YEAR FOR KELLEN WINSLOW JR.!? What the hell were they thinking? I love Steve Heiden but he is NO K2. other than those faults, The Cleveland Browns would get a GG in my group because think about this:
The 1-15 LOLphins had less talent than us but with solid QB play and discipline they reached the playoffs...

The next (partial)GG had to go to the Cavs. They receive a partial because, while they were top on the DPS chart picking up Shaquille "Witness Protection" O'Neal, they drew aggro and made the group wipe by (almost)bombing in the NBA draft. Not that "prospects" are a bad thing, but when the new york dominated Media thinks that the Cavs have to bow to the will of Lebron James and if we dont he'll leave, don't you think we should appease this by getting someone like oh say, PATTI(Y?) MILLS!? Well, another run in the form of Free Agency has started and I think we need to pick-up a fellow that tormented the Cavs in the form of...Charlie Villanueva, formerly of the Milwaukee Bucks. I'm sure you can remember that game in Milwaukee when 'Bron hit threes from the Half-Court logo. Well, as quietly as is possible, Charlie Villanueva scores 38(or so) in a losing effort. He is exactly what we needin terms of a power forward who can drive, handle, knock down shots, and space the floor. Needless to say, this is a championship team if this happens.

Finally, the respective US Nation Teams. The U.S. team had a great showing in the Confederations Cup in South Africa and, although losing to Bra(seeeel)zil in the Final, Shocked the world in their defeat of Number 1 FIFA ranked Spain. GG guys....GG.

Now i said U.S. National Team"s". well, of course, i mean to talk about the US Junior National IFAF team. "US NAtional wha....?" you ask, well IFAF stands for International Federation of American Football. Yes, there is an international interest in Football. Here's a link to the IFAF and USFOOTBALL websites: http://www.usafootball.com/jwc/index , http://www.usafootball.com/ . The US never was eligible for the Tournament until this year but boy have we shown up. The group(Graduated Highschool seniors only) 78-0 victory over France and currently beating Mexico by a large margin as well(no graphics on boradcast). Most of the games have gone this way for all ountries involved. huge lowouts and shut outs abound, but occasionally there's a gem of a game like Japan v. Canada(yes....Canada). The thrilling finish was easily the best of the 2 days.

So, thats it. My first real blog post down and hopefully well recieved =)
