The best effing sports Sunday by far this year...

How could a Sunday be any better?

First, you have Tiger winning the BMW Championship to catapult him to the top of the FedEx Playoffs. And having to score a 63 none-the-less...Baddley was really giving him a run for the money.

Then you have Dario Franchitti winning what was by far and away the most pressure-filled, exciting, and amazing IRL Championship in its history. Dario running second, not looking as if he could pass Dixon, then Dixon runs out of gas on the 3rd corner of the final lap. That coupled with Danica's "spin out" while trying to get to the pit to get a splash of ethanol (which will only add to the drama by the loonies suggesting it was done purposely). Man...the only thing comparable was the St. Louis Rams' winning the Super Bowl by stopping Mason 1.5 feet from the goal line.

Then you have the "Tiger of Tennis", Roger Federer winning the US Open for the 4th CONSECUTIVE TIME!!!! All this against what could be the reincarnation of Federer & Sampras.

Then the Broncos had an amazing last second field goal to win the game. Why was it amazing? Well, because the Broncos converted TWO FOURTH DOWNS on the final drive of the game, coupled with the fact that the Broncos RUSHED THEIR FIELD GOAL TEAM ON IN WITH LESS THAN 12 SECONDS LEFT, AND ELAM NOT EVEN SETTING UP PROPERLY!!!!!!

And what could possibly be the topper? Well of course Romo and the Cowboys not only beating the Giants, but decimating their team injury-wise.

Again I say, by far and away the best Sunday this year so far.

P.S. All of the above coupled with the NASCAR race on Saturday night that didn't have the #8 officially out until with 20 laps left.

P.P.S This was officially the best weekend in sports this year...I can't wait for 10 weeks from now.
