Where the Hell Have I Been?!

And well you may ask!

Some may remember I spoke about my little Aries dog being quite a handful. Well the beagle is bigger now and certainly does take up quite a bit of my free time. But the real reason for my slacking off has been the real life day-to-day work of my job that was keeping me from expressing my astrological and sporting insights for the world to see.

Not that I haven't been keeping up...it IS football season after all, and the NFL is in full swing. Hell, we're halfway through the regular season and things have certainly shaken out differently from how I expected they would. Well...yes and no. Some may recall my astrological analysis of the Seattle Seahawks from back in the very beginning of this blog and the problems I saw with the chemistry of our offensive line. Guess what? I was right.

Urk!

How else can you explain not being able to get half a yard on not one, but TWO fourth down plays against the Browns last week? And that doesn't even account for the several 3rd and short we failed to convert! But let's face it...this is an offensive line problem. The play call is correct. The defenses the 'Hawks are facing aren't that strong. Our running backs are good enough to fall forward for two yards. Nah...this is a chemistry problem. And astrology can be useful for analyzing chemistry issues.

More on this later.

And the Pats...wow. The New England Patriots are destroying people; something I certainly didn't see (or didn't want to see). What the heck is going on? How the heck does one predict 40 and 50 point blow-outs against pro NFL teams? Nevermind that they're in a division with the Jets, Bills, and woeful Dolphins. If I had to make a quick analysis based on astrology, I'd check out the grand square between their elite "air force:"

Tom Brady (QB) -- Leo/fixed
Randy Moss (WR) -- Aquarius/fixed
Wes Welker (WR) -- Taurus/fixed
Donte Stallworth (WR) -- Scorpio/fixed

Squares cause tension and and excitement, and this has been an explosive combination. However, if I had the time to take a more in depth look, I'd bet that it all starts with the Patriots O-Line...how else can they continue to rotate different running backs due to injury and continue to produce huge rushing numbers regardless of the player. And of course the pass protection has been phenomenal for their QB.

More on that later, too.

So why am I getting the chance to write all of a sudden? Having I been terminated by my employer? No...but I AM on vacation (finally). I am currently typing this from the Admiral's Club at the Dallas Fort Worth airport (just passing through...my days of loving the Cowboys are far behind me). I'm going to be on the road for the next couple weeks, but as I get the opportunity, I'll be trying to get back into the blogosphere, at least a little bit. There's still plenty of football left to be played.

By the way...Jeff Garcia (Pisces) and Joey Galloway (Scorpio)...love the combo. Derek Anderson (Gemini) and Braylon Edwards (Aquarius)...ditto. More on all this later, folks.

I hope!
