There is no doubt that Miami has as much great, young talent as any team in the league. But winning a championship is about more than having lots of talent. Chemistry, teamwork, unselfishness and a little bit of luck are all necessities if a team is to win. We will see if the Heat have all of that 8 months from now.

-The Miami Dolphins are the only team in the NFL that has yet to score 30+ points in a game this season.

-Fox can spin it any way they want to, but a Texas-San Francisco World Series will be watched by very few people on the east coast where it really matters from a ratings standpoint.

-Alabama, Ohio State and Oklahoma all lose and Boise State still can’t sniff the top spot in the BCS rankings. That’s the unfortunate part about playing in the WAC.

-Look up the word disappointment in the dictionary and see a picture of the 2010 Dallas Cowboys next to it.

-Speaking of the Cowboys, it is no longer “if” Wade Phillips will be fired, it’s “when” will the Son of Bum get the ax?

-Although he’ll never tell us, Belichick’s decision to go for it on 4th and 1 in San Diego was based on the same belief that his decision to go for it on 4th and 2 last year in Indianapolis - much more confidence in his offense picking up the needed yardage than in his defense to stop the opposition.

-Despite their embarrassing home loss to Cleveland Sunday, I still say that the New Orleans Saints are the team to beat in the NFC.

-The Miami Dolphins are 3-0 on the road and 0-3 at home this season. Go figure?

-NIKE’s new LeBron James ad is supposed to make us understand his decision to go to Miami and understand why he handled his free agency the way that he did. Sorry! I’m not buying it.

-Many football “experts” call the Jets and the Giants the best teams in the AFC and NFC respectively. Why? Because they both play great in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

-Theo Epstein had better have something special up his sleeve this off season because the Yankees will go hard after Cliff Lee and the Tampa Bay Rays aren’t going anywhere either.

-Do the Bruins dare trade Tim Thomas, who is playing so well, while his stock is high?

-Josh McDaniels could walk on water when his Broncos started the season at 6-0 last season. Since that time? Not so much.

-Brown battles Penn ion the gridiron n Philadelphia for sole possession of first place in the Ivy League on Saturday.

-The Miami Dolphins got hosed twice by the refs on Sunday. First, the blew the call on the Roethlisberger fumble, then they failed to give Miami the ball after they recovered it in the end zone.

-Syracuse football won its first meaningful game in many years last weekend when the Orange upset the Mountaineers in West Virginia.

-The Patriots inability to run the ball consistently will continue to haunt them this season.

-Think what you want about Brett Favre, but whether you love him or hate him, you still tune in to watch him play.

-I don’t care what Al Gore says, I’m all for global warming.
