The streak had to end sometime. And this seemed like as good a place as any. The Patriots were a good test for the Broncos and Tim Tebow. Turnovers will cost you every time. Overall, I thought the Broncos really showed that they are capable of playing at the Patriots level. And Tebow showed he is very capable of throwing accurate passes. The thing I find most encouraging is that Tebow gets better with each game.

A quick note: The 2012 Calendars are on temporary backorder. We’ve sold out our first shipment. The next shipment is due to arrive any day now. Also if you have ordered calendars already and have had any problems please contact Mary at drewlittonstore@gmail.com. We’ve had a few non-security glitches with the PayPal. Nothing to be alarmed about on your end, we just want to make sure you get your stuff and you’re happy with your purchases. Adding this storefront is a big step in the right direction for me as I try to continue to find new revenue streams and get you fun products you enjoy.

This weekend it’s Brady vs the Boy Wonder. It’s the NFL regular season game of the century. And it’s Fox vs. the Grinch himself. I’m not a big fan of Bill Belichick, for numerous reasons. Josh McDaniels being the biggest one.
So I thought it would be a good day to revisit one of my favorite cartoons from a few years back. As they say, the Devil is in the Details. I’ll be drawing for the Chicago Tribune for Saturday, 9News on Sunday night and for ESPN.com on Monday! It should be a fun weekend. Oh, and signing those calendars all of you have ordered. Thanks for that! You all Rock!

This pretty much sums up my feelings about the BCS. And it’s always a fun day when I get to draw a skunk or two. I’m not looking forward to the Bowl season really. The system is just so archaic and so drab really. And it’s spread out all over the months of December and January. I used to love Bowl games on New Year’s day when I was a kid. That was before the sponsors took over and gave us things like the Tostitos bowl and the Fed Ex Bowl. Half the companies go out of business every other year so you never know which bowl is which anymore. I hate it. So I think I’ll just hang around and watch Friday Night Lights on DVD. It’s much more entertaining. If you need your fix for 3 hour commercials masquerading as football games I’ve included the line up here. Check out some of the names:

Contracts. Mega million dollar contracts for people to hit a baseball, shoot a basketball, throw a pass, score a goal. Meanwhile the unemployment rate hovers at 10% (or so we are told) and good honest people who just want to work still can’t find a job. If I ran the world, which I know is a scary thought, teachers, librarians, social workers, construction workers, and that waitress who is a single mother and works two jobs to feed her two kids at home would all be very, very wealthy people. Athletes? No. They’d make enough to keep them right smack dab in the middle of the middle class, which, by the way, is vanishing before very eyes throughout America. Now, if there are some among us who have to be, well, just above the poverty line, it would the politicians in Washington who stopped caring about us and their country a long time ago.
Yeah. I’d love to see some of those members of congress struggle to make ends meet. To know what it feels like to have your heat cut off in the dead of winter because you can’t pay the bill. To not be able to afford a few Christmas presents to put under the tree for your kids this year. A dose of reality, you know. And, you know, the more I think about it, maybe some of those athletes could stand a little perspective and deal with those kinds of issues as well. Some of them are pretty clueless. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this as well.
