1. UB's football game on Saturday was nothing short of devastating
There's no hiding the fact that the Bulls disappeared in the second quarter of their game against Ball State. It was a dreadful quarter to watch. But other than that, Buffalo was impressive. The second half run the Bulls put together was nothing short of remarkable. They were like a completely different team.
On the final drive, I just kept telling myself "We got this, we got this. The defense is going to make a big stop." Needless to say, it didn't happen. The Cardinals converted two gigantic fourth downs and they deserved the victory. I simply hung my head when Keith Wenning tossed the game-winning TD.
Thankfully, the weekend was somewhat redeemed when the Bills pulled out their game against the Raiders on Sunday. Oh, and while we're on the topic…the last two minutes of that game were awe-inspiring.
2. Never, under any circumstance, watch Metta World Peace on Dancing With the Stars…
No, seriously. The NBA player whose name used to be Ron Artest – he officially changed it to Metta World Peace on Sept. 17 – is competing on ABC's Dancing with the Stars. World Peace performed the cha-cha in his first attempt to woo the judges.
He came onto the stage wearing no shirt, a black vest, and red pants. After displaying that he doesn't have much rhythm and he looks kind of chubby, World Peace proceeded to flip off his top hat and display his new blonde hair.
Remember "The Palace Brawl" in 2004 when he went into the stands in Detroit?
