NFL and NBA Seasons

This season of NFL football has been a very odd season in that teams that have usually have successful seasons are not doing too well and teams that usually have unsuccessful records are doing better than usual. One of the biggest examples of this is the Indianapolis Colts who are currently 0-12. I think that since they lost Peyton Manning, the Colts have not been able to pull themselves together and have a successful season. I am a New England Patriots fan and I was happy to see them play and defeat the Colts today. On the other hand, the Green Bay Packers are undefeated with a record of 12-0. They just beat the Ney York Giants earlier today in a very close game. Mason Crosby, the kicker for the Packers, had to make the game winning field goal to secure the win for Green Bay. I really hope that the Packers do not have a perfect season because I really do not like them, and I actually think that the San Francisco 49ers is one of the few teams that can beat them in the regular season. There are other teams like the Oakland Raiders, the Detroit Lions, and the Houston Texans who are near the top of their divisions. I think that this year of football is going to be an abnormal year as many teams that will probably go to the playoffs will be going for the first time for a while. In other news, the NBA lockout is finally over and the season should be getting back on schedule during Christmas season. This year’s basketball season should also be a good one as there are many teams with new faces and many teams with star players. No matter what happens during the seasons I am sure that the playoffs and Finals/Super Bowl will be better than usual because of all of the upsets and controversies that have happened during the offseason in basketball and during the season in football.
