Week 5 Thoughts

When you spend Saturday and Sundays either at the sports fields with your kids or watching football on TV you would never know there was an economic meltdown. So thank God for football! Tis a great diversion from current events and the nonsense that is this election season. I was at the Eagle Redskin game this weekend at Lincoln Financial field and all I saw was 65000 people eating and drinking and having a good time. Certainly not like anything you see in those old black and white photos of the great depression. Now onto some football thoughts.

Reggie Bush was not worthy of being the top pick in the draft. He's too much of a gaget player. I think the Saints had much more in mind than a punt returner when they drafted the former Heisman trophy winner.

Once again the receivers are looking for pass interference calls when they don't catch the football. Is there a flag for being a whiny wide receiver?

The Washington Redskins are just ruining the media's little lovefest for the Eagles and the Cowboys. At 4-1 and with all their road games over their next three opponants are a combined 1-11.
