Football Sunday - NFL Week 1 late games

Arizona 23, San Francisco 13 - After losing to the Niners twice last year and not making the playoffs since the days of Conrad Dobler and Jim Hart (don't care if I'm wrong on this, there's no way I'm going to check, the Cards suck), the Cards won a game they had to. Matt Leinart, who couldn't beat out 97 year old Kurt Warner as the starting QB, is a USC Heisman winner who isn't even playing!!! But boy can he hot tub and beer bong!!! The Niners need to hire a GM who knows how to draft. All these years with great low picks in all the rounds and nothing to show???!!!
Cowboys 28, Browns 10 - And what are the experts looking at? They thought the Browns would be tough, they thought the Browns could win. The Browns have no defensive backs. They're lucky Dallas only scored 28. And Cleveland, the only team not named after a color and not named pixies or Brownies, BUT NAMED AFTER THE MAN WHO FOUNDED THEM!, will never get to the Super Bowl. NFL, AFC, doesn't matter, they ain't going. Oh, and the Cowboys would be the Dallas Murchisons if they were named after their founder. Change your name. And for that matter, why are the Browns' helmets ORANGE???!!!
Carolina 26, San Diego 24 - On the last play of the game, to their back-up tight end, Dante Rosario, who will be a star in this league, and on the road, without their best player and best receiver, Steve Smith, the Panthers did the job. Will somebody please tell me when they will fire Norv Turner? So what he once was on Jimmy Johnson's staff. So what he's got those track shoe scars on his neck. So what. He will never win and he will never win a Super Bowl. He won't even get there. Not as a Head Coach. Losing at home to a QB who hadn't played since game 3 or 4 of last year (not counting pre-season). Unbelievable. I say it is the curse of LT. I love LaDainian Tomlinson. He is a HOF back, surely. But he is not LT. LAWRENCE TAYLOR IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE. Perhaps if they call him LaDainian Tomlinson more they might get to the Big Dance. Otherwise, brings back Alworth, Lincoln and Ernie Ladd.

Nice job David.
Dante Rosario a star? Giving love a former Oregon Duck? I like it. It's about time "we" had one. I've finally rid my closet of the Joey Harrington & Akili Smith shirts! On to Jonathan Stewart.

One suggestion. Bold the game headings (teams and scores) for easier reading.

I've been a Duck fan since Bobby Moore, Whatever his name is now, he was a remarkable all-around football player and may have even played both ways back then. And I always liked the pugnacious duck logo with the sailor cap - not sure if they use that one anymore. Joey should've stuck to the piano, you take fewer hits on the concert stage and as for Akili, America just wasn't ready for yet another QB with legs better than his arm and a name that probably means "Warrior Prince" in Yoruba. Jonathan Stewart looked like the real deal yesterday, though. Runs hard, runs through, good back. And yes, I will BOLD the headings and scores. Thanks for reading.
