Yippee

As sleep refuses to come, I find myself in an excited state that is usually reserved for children on Christmas Eve. The countdown started a long time ago, but in these final hours there is an overwhelming sense of anticipation for kickoff. Only 12 hours remain... tick tock, tick tock...

Anyway... I figured I would post not only a prediction for the Tampa Bay game, but how about a prediction for the entire season too. It's always interesting to read back and see how wrong or right I was. So here goes.

First, Dallas @ Tampa Bay: I could easily see, and almost expect a win. One understated problem may be the weather when these two teams meet up in Florida, but Dallas seems to have most of the advantages in this match-up. Tampa Bay is in a bit of disarray, as they just fired thier offensive coordinator last week. I'd guess 31-10, Dallas.

For the season as a whole, I'm thinking Dallas has the ability to go 10-6 or 11-5. I definately don't see a victory in every divisional game, and so far, Atlanta, Green Bay, San Diego & New Orleans are looking like pretty tough match-ups that could go either way. If the rest of the division and conference doesn't fair that well, 10-6 should be enough for a playoff spot and then we'll see if this team can actually win in the post-season.

Adios for now... will recap the game sometime after tomorrow. Peace...
