The Miami Dolphins and Jonathan Saller won the Mid Valley Draft. He made some shrewd picks and filled the holes he needed. I hate saying it wasn’t the Titans, but I am glad it was a Temple City guy.

(Homer pick?)

The NFL Draft is now the thing that I am looking forward to. Thank God for the NFL Channel because now I can watch everything from the combine to the draft, and everything in between.

The biggest thing I am not looking forward to is a possible lockout. The Collective Bargaining Agreement needs to be dotted and signed or there might not be a season. I don’t know how I will live without an NFL season.

Most of all I am not looking forward to watching a filler-season, with all the back up guys being starters. Don’t get me wrong, The Replacements is a great movie, and Keanu Reeves does a good job living on a boat, but that storyline doesn’t belong in the NFL.

Lets get this done Mr. Roger Goodell.

Baseball season is starting and another year of struggling with the McCourt family in charge of the Los Angeles Dodgers will began. The blue runs in my veins, but all of the issues around the Boys in Blue have began to bleed me dry.

On a positive note, the Dodgers introduced last Thursday that they would be wearing throwback Brooklyn uniforms in six of their home games. Google them because they look awesome, oh by the way they are selling six game mini plans specially in correlation to wearing the uniforms. It will be good to see some throwback at Chavez Ravine.

The live show had an American flag in the back ground this week, so America obviously loves us over at the Mid. Next week, the “No Huddle Show” with Omellette and Sunshine will be sponsored by the non existent AFL and the Shake Weight.

Players send your tapes into the email or post it on a comment. We’ll slap it on the site, we’ll talk about it on the “No Huddle Show”, and we’ll help get your name out there.

Monday was Valentine’s Day, or if so inclined Singles Awareness Day, and love was everywhere.

But amidst all this love, some needs to go out to the Muir Mustang football team and the family of Brandon Jackson.

It is sad that we live in a world in which things like this can happen. I didn’t know Brandon and sadly I never will. From what I understand he would have been a starter in his senior year and a prominent member of the Mustangs.

There are more important things in life than flowers.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
