Louisville lost in OT, breaking my heart. I am still counting on them to handily win the Big East. They were easily better than every Big East team last year, and were only prevented from winning the conference by the technicality that they weren't a member of it yet.

In the NFL, Kansas City managed to overcome Washington, and I'm counting on my Eagles to have their usual strong performance coming out of the bye.

As for the local team, maybe they just suck, has anyone considered that? And maybe that's all about letting the only real coach the team had get hired away, leaving them adrift with no one at the rudder. Lo says that she watches Vikings games for the same reason she watches Special Victims Unit: morbid fascination. Maybe my show should be called CSI & Order: Special Criminal Death Investigations--Minnesota Vikings Division. It could feature gory close-ups of Dante Culpepper getting sacked.

So when it comes to football, there are reasons, but never any explanations.
