NBA: Here We Stand



And it's time to start paying attention. All we'll hear about in the world of sports for the next 2 weeks is:

1) Is Favre gonna retire?

This is the problem with the 1-year contract for a player such as Brett Favre. He should come right out and say I'm not finished doing what I set out to do. If I make the decision to retire, that's not gonna happen until August. And that's it. Because no matter how he handles the next 6 months (and he's hurting his legacy by allowing there to be the "Brett Favre Soap Opera" that has taken place for nearly 3 years now), they will keep bring up this issue.

2) Super Bowl next: New Orleans Saints vs. Indianapolis Colts

You already know it's gonna be great. Being a Cowboy fan, it's the match-up that I 2nd-most-wanted to see. We beat the Saints. We also peaked too soon. I was one of the happy ones when Favre threw the interception. I love the guy, but this year is all about Brees and this Saints team. The beat a monster Vikings squad Sunday.

I also think that most people are overrating the Colts just a bit. Manning is surely MVP. They are certainly worthy. But this game is gonna come down to the Colts' secondary. It took them a while to figure out what rookie Sanchez and the Jets were doing to them. And the Colts D is gonna be eerily responsible for forcing the Saints to win in the only way that it can be done - by causing more turnovers than they do. There will be more on this later..

3) When is Tiger coming back? No later than The Masters.

4) NBA Basketball is about half-way through the season!

A lot of great teams have been struggling, and a lot of good teams have been kicking ass the last week or so. The competition is gonna be fierce!

Start paying attention - this is gonna be a crazy-good season! There will be more on this later, too
