TwitChange

Last week, an AMAZING EBay auction took place. The always amazing Troy Polamalu teamed up with TwitChange.

I decided to support my Arizona Cardinals players participating, and bid on them.

Kurt Warner (@kurt13warner). Kerry Rhodes (@kerryrhodes) & Matt Ware (@mattware22)

I also supported an awesome lady Lisa Horne (@lisahorne) who pretty much does my dream job!

While I lost the majority of the auctions I bid on, I did win Lisa's MEGA auction and Kerry's ReTweet auction.

A BIG shoutout to Matt Ware, who followed me even though I lost his auction with mere seconds left!

All money raised helped an amazing organization called Operation Once in a Lifetime. A big congratulations to Alex Holmes (@trojan81) for all of his work in making great things happen with this project!

While the next TwitChange ambassador might not be a football player, I am excited to participate once more.

Vent Fest....

Where do I even start? USC playing sub-par football? The refs screwing over many teams? Thank goodness I'm not a coach or I'd get fined for saying that ;)

The list can go on and on, but I will start with this. Sure USC has been playing sub-par football, but how can LSU and I will quote my good ole twitter bud @uscpsycho "LSU is only team in top 15 that hasn't beat a ranked team. Plus they have 2 losses. So why are they #9? Seriously...???"

Granted both teams have 2 losses, but USC has beat THREE ranked teams, lost one game to a team that was unranked and the 2nd loss was to a top ten team....explain that one to me?

I don't even think I can start on the refs. Not just the stupid calls they make against USC, but the calls they don't make when it comes to other teams...like UF. Calls that could have caused outcomes in games...sure the refs get penalized, but does that help Arkansas? Who could have WON that game..

Oh. ASU fans. Learn some respect, and learn to spell. Granted, I am not the biggest fan of Corp (3rd string USC QB) but I am not mean about it. At last nights USC v ASU game (if you want to call it that) some kid has a sign that said:

Anybody

But

Cullivan

Now I don't know if they were trying to be funny and reference Couples Retreat, but still..

Let's move on to my Cardinals. Surprisingly enough, other than Leinart's interception, there's no complaints there... :)

Had to get that off my chest, now I can enter the week with some serenity and a ton of hope.

uh oh

I started this blog because I absolutly 100% LOVE football. Like seriously LOVE it. I get into disagreements over football, and I can be a little overly passionate...

That being said, twitter was the best invention EVER when it comes to me blogging about football.

Why? Well there are so many great players that are using twitter, and sparking GREAT post ideas.

It started with Nine-O and his great Tweets, and then my Cali Redwoods boys!

Can't leave out @Trojan81's tweet that sparked my Confessions... post a few days ago.

I'm rambling. Sorry. Anyway, you will be seeing a lot more love & thanks to players who are inspiring me to write...like sensei Mike Williams (twinjas for life)
