Sporting Miscellanea

1. Diet Update
Woke up this morning down over 50 lbs. Thanks to everyone who’s been supportive in one way or another…a little over three months left!

I’m busting out old clothes and washing them. I’m approaching a total dearth of dress clothes that fit. Belt usage is approaching a billowing “cinching” look. I’ll take these problems.

2. World Cup Draw
Well, this will be fun. Six months of buildup to what will be the most-anticipated game in US Soccer history. I don’t think England is a good matchup for us, but if we can get a point or more, I do think we’ll advance by getting a win and a draw in the other two matches. Plenty of time to break this down later.

3. CFB
Assuming Texas beats the Bugeaters today (and I think they will), we will be left with 5 undefeated conference champs, 3 of whom are from “BCS” conferences. Of the 2 non-BCS champs, 1 beat a BCS conference champ and the other steamrolled through the season by and large, beating quality teams on the way. If it plays out that we wind up with 2 undefeated teams after the bowls, let’s not pretend that there’s a national champion. It’s a joke.
