Steven Jackson and the Rams are next

This Sunday the 1-10 St. Louis Rams come to Soldier Field to take on the Bears and normally I would feel pretty confident that this would be an easy win. Well, given the way the Bears have been playing of late, I'm not exactly sure how this game will shake out.
The Bears defense is dinged up and it appears likely Lance Briggs will not be suiting up for this one with a knee injury. That means the defense is going to be essentially a "B" Team at most positions. Yeah, it's not looking pretty.
The way Steven Jackson runs the ball (brutally) I'm not too confident he won't just go of against this defense and tear the Bears apart on the newly installed Soldier Field turf.
If that happens, I might have to jump on the "Fire Lovie" bandwagon. The defense is his baby and that is something that needs to be worked on over these final five games.
And I know someone is coming up with the idea to lose out and better the draft position of the team. Well, that would be OK, but the team traded away its first round pick in the Jay Cutler deal and its second round pick for Gaines Adams earlier in the season. Yeah, totally not cool.
So, essentially, losing is not beneficial in any light right about now and winning is the only thing that can make this team much of anything.
First, it can save Lovie's job and second, it can get Jay Cutler the confidence he needs to be the quarterback us fans want him to be next year when Jerry Angelo gives him the weapons needed to be the great quarterback they thought he would be.
My prediction for this one: Bears 27, Rams 17. But that won't get done until late in the game.



Allen Iverson rejoined the 76ers yesterday and it was pretty emotional. I don't know about you, but when I see one of the sports stars I look up to or admire, it makes it pretty hard for even me to keep from getting a little misty eyed.
He is going back to the place where it all started and I'm saying the return back to Philly will be good for him as a place to finish his career on a positive note.
He is one of the best guards to play the game and for a guy under 6 feet tall it is just amazing that he is able to do what he can with the ball in his hands. I've always been amazed by him and hope to see him end his career on a positive note.



I'm not normally a shoe freak, but thought these shoes, shown on Maxim.com today were pretty interesting. No, I won't be buying them, but take a look at the others, not just the "Skywalkers." I'm pretty impressed with Adidas and their idea to work with Star Wars here. It's a great idea and I thought they pulled it off quote well. Take a look at the link.

Alright, a bit quick through the blog today, but I will not disappoint with the Nussie Hunter, I promise. Today I'm introducing the world to Gemma Lee Ferrall. She's an Australian model who is now in the US. She was recently in Curves Magazine and I must say the pictorial is amazing. Take a look at this AND her best side...
