Don't try this at home...or anywhere else for that matter

I seen this picture and felt compelled to post it. I tried to come up with something funny to say about the picture but I can't. My mind goes blank. Uhhh, it looks uncomfortable. I don't wish this move on anyone.

Picture gone wrong

I had one attempt to get a good picture of all four boys at the same time. Let's break down how it went going from left to right.

• Mikey is very upset and decides to flee the picture completely.

• Timo "little mommy" Rigby is doing his best to salvage the picture by trying to get Mikey to stay put.

• Eric is the only one looking at the camera but it's plain as day by the look on his face he wants no part of this picture. He's one furrowed eyebrow away from giving me the stink eye...if he's not already.

• Judging by the location of Noah's hand and the look on his face, he has to pee quite badly. I find this interesting because I swear he peed about five minutes before the picture.

Better luck next time!

Ever seen someone do a backflip in a wheelchair? Me neither until I watched this video. Check it out.

Quick thoughts on the game

I thought I would follow up yesterday's post with a quick personal post game update. I'll spare any boring details of analysis and give a few short opinions. I will do my best to avoid talking about LeGarrette Blount's post game meltdown.

• Boise State's defense is stellar. They shut down a high-octane Oregon offense. I feel warm and fuzzy inside just thinking about it.

• Boise State's offense was good when they weren't fumbling the ball. Once the screws are tightened they'll be explosive as ever with an improved running game.

• Despite Boise State's reputation of having a gimmick offense, BSU looked stronger and many times looked faster. For what it's worth, BSU has six players that run a 4.3. I remember University of Florida (a team that takes pride in recruiting speedsters) boasting a similar statistic last year.

• Becka made mouth watering buffalo wings last night and eating them before the game started was the route to go. Too many times my pregame butterflies has got the best of me with a big plate of untouched food in front of me.

I get all giddy when I think of the potential of this years team. Coach Pete will keep the players grounded. Can't wait till next week when Miami (Ohio), (alma mater of Ben Roethlisberger) comes to town. Bring on the Red Falcons!
