Just for the Ladies
Matt Moore, QB Carolina # 3
Carolina can now add a game to their win column thanks to this man. I hope Mr. Moore keeps the momentum going...
That's all for tonight folks. Goodnight PC Faithfuls

It's a "Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy" Situation
Maybe we should try to save the Cowboys instead, whose with me? It may take something just short of a miracle to save Kitna & Crew but I'll still try to keep the faith. Right? Wrong. I hope people are ready to face reality because the Cowboys are 6 feet underground. I guess America's Team will have to wait until next year. Cowboy fans can grab a seat right next to me and the rest of the Cubbie Nation. But such is life, the Cowboys will be back on top one of these days.
"Free Rides" Cost Money
Sacre bleu! "Free rides" actually cost money. A recent study held by Ithaca College and a national athletes advocacy group revealed that "full ride" scholarships for student athletes don't cover all school expenses. Well isn't this interesting. You always pay for things one way or another but I'm a little surprised by some of these out-of pocket expenses. $11,000 really? $5,000 even? I guess we know why so many of these kids secretly take money and exit school early to go pro. I wonder if the Reggie Bush scandal was the impetus for this study. Your thoughts?
The Situation
In other football news Joe Flacco has decided to get a Jersey Shore makeover. Flacco's new haircut is pretty wild but the kid can play football so I'm not complaining. Fist Pumps all around.
Quick Links
Favre, it's time to throw in the towel
No dominant team--my thoughts exactly
CB Cox loses memory

Hottie of the Week
4 catches for 72 yards, 1 TD in the Rams win over San Diego
He's such a cutie! Look at those arms too. It's always nice to see a rookie step up to the plate. Go Rams!?! I do love St. Louis( the city that is) but I'm not jumping on any bandwagons. Sorry.

Boys, Girls & the Comeback Kid
I didn't get a chance to post last week so here's some food for thought....
This season has been quite interesting. No one has really stood out from the pack but all of that could change once the weather gets crappy. Not to say that there aren't any Super Bowl contenders but a lot can happen between now and January 2nd. If I had to choose two teams today however, I would pick the Steelers and the Eagles. The Steelers are on fire right now and with Big Ben back Pittsburgh is bound to runaway with the division. In the NFC the Eagles are rumbling and bumbling. Philly has been a dominant team in NFC for the last decade and this may be the year that they finally make it to the promise land. Andy Reid is a phenomenal coach and I believe that his hard work will pay off.
L.T. Resurgence
It's always great to see a player come back to form. LaDainian Tomlinson is one of the greatest running backs of our time and he's found new life in the Big Apple. I was upset when the Jets traded my future husband Thomas Jones but acquiring L.T. was probably the best move they made this off season. I hope L.T. continues to have a great year and I'm also glad that he's on one of my fantasy football teams.
Boys Not Men
I'm sorry but the Cowboys just need to throw in the towel. I love Miles Austin, Dez Bryant and Tony Romo but I find it hard to believe that the 'Boys will defy all odds and makes the playoffs. Old age must be getting to Jerry Jones because a playoff run at this stage of the games seems nearly impossible. I still don't understand why people are riding high on the Cowboys. How many more games do they have to lose before people start opening their eyes? The team has great talent but they have one game in the win column and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that they suck. Hell, if the Cowboys make it to the playoffs I'll buy Dez Bryant dinner. We may be going to McDonald's because I'm not rolling in dough but a promise is a promise.
Girls Night Out
On Wednesday, October 27, 2010 the Chicago Bears will be hosting Football 101, a fun event designed to teach women about the game of football.

Well that's all for today Pink Cleat Faithfuls. I can't believe it's hump day already.

Fashion, Football & the Return of Pink Cleats
The campaign must be going well so far. I see women wearing football apparel left and right. A few weeks back, I blogged about Victoria Secrets PINK NFL Collection but today I was surprised to find NFL t-shirts for women at Old Navy. So it's official, we're taking over. Move over boys, Sunday afternoons are our time to shine.
And so the pink cleats return. It's going to be a great month for football....
