What I'm going to do in my blog ...

My blog will sometimes contain comments about hobby's, movies, sports and political events and other (in my opinion) important happenings. Today I will write something about a passion of mine .... Football!!! Not as popular as I would like it to be in Europe but this is the year that the Amsterdam Admirals finally won the NFL Europe championship. I am a fan of football from age 11 and on my first of many US trips I bought every player-team-college guide I could get my hands on.

Back to today. One of the biggest things that can make me happy is looking at grudge games. The Trojans and Bruins will meet this coming Saturday to decide who can brag for a year about being the best in L.A.. USC's Matt Leinart, Lendale White and Reggie "The Human Highlight Reel" Bush vs. UCLA's Drew Olson and Maurice Drew. This will be fireworks between two of the most exciting teams this season has to offer.

The stakes are high because If USC loses they'll lose their number 1 spot in the polls. I still think that that would make them the number 2 because the other teams aside from Texas are not in USC's league. And yes, USC can lose a game but I don't think they will this year because they are lucky, plucky and just that damn good. I also want them to beat the tar out of Texas because I haven't forgotten about Whinin' Mack Brown's antics which screwed California out of the Rose Bowl.

My prediction is for USC-UCLA is 38-35 in a game where the man of the match will be Maurice Drew. Which begs the question: Who will win the Heisman? That one deserves an answer after this weekend.

Take care,

Mickel

The first one ...

Hmmm, this is my first blog on the net. Being that everyone nowadays is netactive I decided to join in. Perhaps when I am in a better mood I will post more about my passions (wrestling, comics, music and movies). Two weeks after Eddie Guerrero's death I'm still pissed at the WWE, wrestling and the media in general.

But it's time to focus on the living and not time to dwell on the dead.

With regards,

Mickel Tilburg
