2011 looking back

Well, we are nearing a new year and I thought it would be a good time to take a look back at the previous one. First off 2011 was a pretty good year for old Phats so I can't really complain. I thought i'd go month by month and hit the highlights using the blog for some help since I am getting older and the memory is going. By the way I should point out I hate New Year's Eve I plan on watching the Boilers play Illinois, and then crawling into bed and reading the rest of the night.

2011 Look Back
January- Started the year with an earthquake, that's pretty uncommon here in Indiana. I remember being sound asleep and all of a sudden it sounded like a truck hit our house. Thankfully no damage, although a picture did fall off our wall.

College gameday for basketball made their first visit to Mackey Arena for the Purdue vs Michigan State game man that was a day I will NEVER forget. Left our house around 5am, by the time the game ended around 11 I had no voice, I was burning up, but the Boilermakers won it was an amazing experience

February- Purdue beating #2 and would have been #1 had they beaten us Ohio State at Mackey Arena. I have been going to Purdue basketball games since I could walk, and I have never heard Mackey that loud, or seen it that amped it was a great game and when JJ dunked as time was expiring I seriously thought the roof might come off the arena.

Mother Nature dumped on us. Man last Feb we got an AWFUL snowstorm that just seem to spit snow and never stop and to add on top of that we had a hard time even getting to above freezing to melt any of it. Just south of us in Indiana they got all ice both were just awful storms. I remember about breaking my back shuffling that shit.

March- The 5th annual Phats Bracket Challenge was a success the 2011 champion was Travis we will see if he can defend his title this coming march madness. Purdue's amazing two Seniors ended their Purdue careers in disappointing fashion being upset by VCU in the 3rd round of the NCAA tournament. This was also the first March Madness where they did the new play in games of last four in etc

The WigWam closed its doors. I know this means nothing to any of you, but a historic high school gym in Anderson was closed due to money reasons. It was home to the Anderson Indians, and sat around 8000 people I have many great memories from that place it was sad to see it shut down.

April- I only blogged twice so April must have been uneventful I know my spring break sure was as I stayed here in Indiana and did absolutely NOTHING.

May- Best highlight and maybe the best thing that's ever happened to my, the high school tennis team I coach won the school's second ever sectional title, but we didn't stop there as we went on to win the school's first ever regional title before falling in the sweet 16 at the semi state level. It was an amazing season that saw us finish with a school record for wins 18-5, graduated an amazing senior class that never had a losing season. We took the sectional title with 3 4-1 wins and the regional was TENSE to say the least in the semi finals we beat a team that had beaten us in the season 3-2 as it came down to the 2 doubles pt and our girls pulled it out in 3 tough sets. We were suppose to play the next day but as we were getting close to loading the bus we were put under a tornado warning and yes it was ppd to the following day, again more tornadoes in the area and we finally played on a Friday against the 5x defending champ and calmly beat them 3-2 when our 2 doubs pt AGAIN claimed the 3rd pt in a three set thriller one of the greatest days of my life.

Osama Bin Laden was killed. Yes, I remember being pissed at the fact they broke in 1 hr before they had anything to report and I missed the big board room showdown of Nene vs Star Jones, BUT this was a historical event. God Bless those Seals that risked their lives(yes, I know that's their job) to pull off this insane mission.

June- I celebrated another birthday!! While age is just a number I did turn 34 years old even though I feel and act more like I am 2o. Unlike other people I like celebrating my birthday and I even begged for gifts, and comments from you all haha. It was actually a low key birthday this year I hung out with my family, and had a game night with my best friends of course that includes Miss Bekah, and I believe Miss Bekah and I teamed to kick booty in Like Minds! I dunno if she should be scared by that or not haha.

The best player I have ever coached, and may ever coach saw her high school career come to an end in the individual state singles tournament. She finished 4th but just getting here there was amazing she graduated with a 4 year record of 84-7 pretty good.

July- Finished another summer of teaching summer tennis through the park, actually enjoyed the kids this year but really enjoy every year when it ends!! It was a quiet July on my blog, so I don't have anything to else to write about here, enjoyed some pool time?? haha

August- The big family trip to Disney World highlighted my August. It's no secret it's my favorite vacation of all time, and we had a really good time. We did it in style took a limo to the airport, stayed long enough to not have to rush, stayed at our favorite hotel the Beach Club, and I met my favorite chracter and got a picture with him, of course I am talking about Donald Duck. The best part my nephews are old enough now where they rode EVERYTHING. I loved seeing them experience Tower of Terror, Rock N Roller Coaster, Yeti, Space Mountain for the first time and wanting to do them over and over. It was a fantastic way to cap my summer break.

Tragedy hit Indiana in August as well as a huge wind gust during a bad thunderstorm came through and the stage Sugarland was to perform on at the state fair completely collapsed killing a few, and left many hurt. While it was sad it was also inspiring to see the heroic efforts of people running to aid people who were pinned underneath the stage. It's a sight I will never forget.

September- A new Purdue football season kicked off and the Boilers got an opening weekend win in 100 degree weather. It was great to have college football back, but it was hard to sit out and enjoy it.

9-11 10 year anniversary. It's hard to believe that, that awful day turned 10 years old. I am hopeful I will NEVER have to see anything like that again in my life.

October- Almost lost my grandma. She had fallen in her assisted living complex and wasn't found for hours. Our whole family was called to the hospital to say our goodbyes, and long story short we were called 4 times to tell her goodbye, and well she is still alive and kicking. God Bless Granny!

Purdue got a homecoming win with yours truly on the field to see it. It was good to be back on the field and ya I still got it!!

November- Purdue takes back the Old Oaken Bucket and in doing so becomes Bowl Eligible for the first time since 2007. It was an odd game against the shitty Hoosiers but we pulled it out. Also Cara and I took Bekah to her first ever football game in this month she was a very good sport in not the best weather. Also rushed the field after a thrilling OT win vs Ohio State including a blocked PAT to send it to OT! Combining stories Robbie Hummel after 2 acl's tears finally returns to Mackey Arena and leads the Boilers in a dominating win over Northern Illinois

Celebrated another Thanksgiving which also meant another birthday for my kidney as it turned 22 the Wednesday before turkey day. I am blessed every year I make it through with my "borrowed" kidney :)

December- Purdue returns to post season play after accepting an invite to the Little Caesars Bowl in Detroit and beats Western Michigan 37-32 capping a winning season which hopefully spring boards us into next year.

Celebrated another great Christmas with my family at my sister's house. Enjoyed watching my nephews play the XBox Kinect I got them.

Kind of a long post, but it was a long year after doing it the highlight was definitely May my tennis team winning. How about you what were your highlights?? Big New Year's Eve plans??

Happy New Year

Happy Holidays!! Oh yeah and Bowl Mania Phats Style

First off I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, this will be my last blog til after Christmas. So, I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday season, and get everything you asked for under your tree.

This is the Bowl Pick Mania edition of Phats blog, it's been so long since the Boilers were in the post season(2007) I couldn't even remember how I did this. So, what I did was asked all the guest pickers from this season to pick 3 games with me, their team, the national championship game, and the Purdue game. If their team wasn't playing in a bowl I gave them a match up I felt was a good one. So, on with the picks and I am currently still waiting on Cheryl, & Gary. Yes, I know there are all different fonts and sizes I blame the arrogant Bama fan Booya! haha

PRO GAMES
Christmas Eve
Pittsburgh Steelers(Rocket) vs St Louis Rams
Rocket- PITTSBURGH

COLLEGE GAMES
Dec 22nd MAACO Bowl
Boise State Broncos(Duck) vs Arizona State Sun Devils
Duck- BRONCOS 40 Sun Devils 21

Phats- This game is in Las Vegas I would totally go if the Boilers ever got there. I feel bad for Boise they should playing in the Sugar probably but college sports is political they will roll
BOISE STATE 55 arizona state 21
FINAL SCORE BOISE STATE 56 arizona state 24
Duck- WOOHOO
Phats- WOOHOO

Dec 28th Holiday Bowl
Texas Longhorns(Gary, Cheryl) vs California Bears
Phats- I always like this bowl and it's usually entertaining. I know nothing about Cal so give me Texas in a close one
TEXAS 31 cal 28
FINAL TEXAS 21 cal 10
Phats- WOOHOO

Dec 31st Car Care Bowl of Texas
Northwestern Wildcats vs Texas A&M Aggies
Jef- Gooooooodbye Aggies. This will be your easiest opponent before you get to the SEC. Welcome to the cellar A&M. A&M wins, but it will be the last bowl they see for a while.
TEXAS A&M

Phats- Big Ten really needs the Cats to win this one, they ended the season strongly, but I am not feeling this one
A&M 24 Northwestern 21

Dec 31st Sun Bowl
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets(Emily) vs Utah Utes
Emily-
Ugh, this is not going to be a pretty game. I see lots of mistakes, and not much excitement. I don't really even think the GaTech fan base as a whole is very up for this game. I'm going to say GaTech gets it together, but only bc they're my team.
Ga Tech 31 Utah 21

Phats- I have been to the sun bowl before a few times 3 to be exact and it's one of my favorite bowls El Paso really knows how to treat the fans. I am not impressed with the ACC, but I am not impressed with Utah either Jackets should win STING EM!
GEORIGA TECH 28 utah 17

Jan 2nd Fiesta Bowl
Stanford Cardinal vs Oklahoma State Cowboys
Shife- OKLAHOMA STATE

Phats- This one could actually be a better and more entertaining than the National Championship game. Colts fans will have a close eye on this one as here in Indy they have been going for the suck for luck campaign. I think the Cowboys are the better team though, and probably deserved the shot at playing LSU especially over Bama
OKLAHOMA STATE 49 stanford 35

Jan 2nd Rose Bowl
Wisconsin Badgers vs Oregon Ducks

Booya-
Where do I begin? I guess with how in the hell is Wisconsin a top ten team? Sure they went 11-2 this year but one of those loses was to Ohio State. Has anyone seen the news Ohio State
sucks this year. Oh and the Badgers beat the 8th ranked Nebraska Cornholios, wha? what is that? Oh they were 8th when they played them but ended up 21st...wow, they are good! And then there is Oregon...SEC! SEC! SEC!... yeah whatever. I can't hate on the Ducks for losing to auburn last year. I mean auburn was playing with professional
players, you are a professional when you are paid to play right? Oh and don't forget about Mr. Sportsman of the Year Nick (the knee) Fairley, he represents all that is auburn. Anyway back to the Ducks, they too have a loss to a team that they should have beat, USC. So both teams have the same record 11-2 and both teams have a loss to a team that they should have beat. Sounds pretty well matched to me. And this is the second year in a row for Wisconsin to play in the Rose Bowl and Oregon was there in 2010. On paper this looks to be a good
game but let's face it, Wiscon hasn't been very good since Ron Dane and he was the only thing they had. Let's face it, these teams don't play very tough schedule and no one with a defense. In other words all they have to do is outscore the other team... thrilling! I think that Oregon is going to run through Wisconsin like crap through a goo... a duck! Final score Wis 24 - Ore 38

Phats- This one scares me for the big ten, I actually think that Michigan State would have matched up better here. Although Purdue played Oregon the last two year's and both times should have won. Wisconsin is tough and has some serious weapons, but their coach is a douche. I am going with the Badgers in a slight upset
WISCONSIN 28 oregon 24

Jan 2nd Capital One Bowl
Nebraska Cornhuskers vs South Carolina Gamecocks
Travis- NEBRASKA 27 south carolina 13

Phats-
Another bowl game I have been too, and another favorite because it's in Orlando!! I really like the Huskers in this one, more often than not it seems like South Carolina just doesn't seem to care about bowls.
NEBRASKA 31 south carolina 17

Jan 4th Orange Bowl
Clemson Tigers(Topolk, Emily) vs West Virginia Mountaineers(Angel Jr)
Emily-
Go Tigers all the way on this one! Clemson get's up for big games, and this is one of the biggest I've been around for. Sammy Watkins wants to make a name for himself, and this is the stage for him to prove it. Clemson is hungry, and fighting not to be known as the team that 'Clemson's" themselves out of good seasons. I like the extra practice time, I like the added pressure. I'm ALL IN!
Clemson 48 West Virginia 36

Topolk-
My Tigers are returning to the site of our program's greatest achievement. Not only are we returning to the Orange Bowl, but we're doing so with the ACC Championship and "The Belt" in tow. This match-up against West BAH GAWD Virginia has the chance to go in lots of directions, as both squads have a tendency to be unpredictable, but I'm expecting my Tigers to pull out the win here. Look for Sammy Watkins to have a field day in this "homecoming" of sorts.
Clemson 38, West Virginia 24

Phats- The Big East is awful, and the ACC is not much better but Clemson is the exception they have had a great season, and they will conclude it with a nice BCS Bowl win possibly their first??
CLEMSON 49 west virginia 10

Jan 9th National Championship Game
Alabama Crimson Tide(Booya, Gary, Cheryl) vs LSU Tigers
Rocket- LSU

Thomas- LSU 35 Bama 24

Duck- LSU 40 Bama 21

Jef-
We hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS, hate the BCS! Who CARES?!?!? LSU wins.

Emily-
I. CAN'T. WAIT. for this game. I love it's a rematch, and I love that it's for all the marbles. I expect to see Alabama get it together more on offense, and more points on the board from both sides this time around. My gut says Alabama on this one.
Alabama 24, LSU 21

Travis- LSU 23 alabama 13

Shife- LSU

Booya-
Puh-lease! Rematch game, boohoohoo, low scoring game boohoohoo, want to see other conferences in the championship game, boohoohoo. COULD I PLEASE HAVE YOUR ATTENTION?!?!?!?! EAT ME! This game is going to be stellar. If anyone thinks this is going to be the same song, second verse you need to go see your proctologist and get your head removed. Sure, Alabama missed not one, not two, not three but four very makeable filed goals. Do you honestly think that they haven't remedied that? And you don't think that Trent Richardson wants to show that he can score on that L$U defense? Come on, he thinks about that morning, noon and night. Now on to the bayou buttmunches. They gave everything that they had when they played Alabama, they had nothing that they needed to improve on, other than scoring but we are both in the same boat there. But they didn't need to work on catching or holding onto the ball or their defense giving up to many yards or even penalties. They pretty much played to the best of their ability. Oh, then they had to get ready to play Georgia. Sure they got the Honey Badger but much like they prepared for Trent Richardson, Alabama will be prepared for him too. While their players, when not getting into bar fights, had to hit the weight room and practice and so on while the Tide players were able to take a nice rest and heal. Obviously I see this as an advantage for the Tide. Final Score Bama 24 - Loser State 17

Topolk- Meh. I love a good defensive matchup, but I'm part of the crowd that didn't want to see this a second time. Who cares?
LSU 3, Alabama 2

Phats- Lets get one thing straight here Nick Saban is a DOUCHEBAG he was not liked in the Big Ten and he wasn't winning there so I am sure he's even worse now. However, he said once a great quote about if you can't win your own conference or division you have no right playing for the National Title. AMEN so why they hell are they there??? Nobody wants to see this game again except for Bama fans it was boring, QB play was BAD, special teams even worse, tons of penalties, and lets face it Bama couldn't beat LSU at home how the hell are they going to beat them in Louisiana??? I have this feeling LSU will roll, and I certainly hope so
LSU 35 Alabama 17

Dec 27th Little Caesar's Bowl
Purdue Boilermakers vs Western Michigan Broncos
Rocket- PURDUE

Thomas- PURDUE 31 Western Michigan 21

Duck- PURDUE 40 Western Michigan 21

Jef- Duhhhh!! Purduhhh Wins

Emily- This is actually tough for me. I'd like to say Purdue. Wins over 3 ranked teams is respectable, even if Phats hates his coach. I hesitate bc any team with Michigan in part of it's name scares me, and Purdue hasn't been able to win 2 in a row this year.
Purdue 35 W. Michigan 21

Booya-
Ewwww a directional school, thank god Lower Northwestern Central Illinois State already accepted a bowl bid.*eye roll* And while I'm at it, is NASCAR somehow getting involved with the naming of NCAA Bowls now? The Little Caesars Bowl? What's next, the AAMCO Transmissions, RedMan, Dickey's, Phillips 76, Home Depot Bowl? And how many freaking bowl games do we need? Jesus, bowl games used to be something special now you have teams with loosing seasons going to bowl games, F-THAT! Ok, back to this crap-tastic game, would someone please tell me the outcome because I think it's being played on ESPN13 at 3:30 AM next Tuesday. Who is going to watch
this? I would rather watch blind kids put together a jigsaw puzzle...actually... never mind. And what is with Purdue playing bowl games against directional Michigan teams? Wasn't their last bowl game against Central Michigan, come on Phats, really? So Purdue is horrible and so is W.Michigan. Both teams play the same ass-scab caliber
teams. But at least Purdue is in a conference... of course it's a basketball conference. God, thinking about which of these two easy-win teams is going to win this thriller really has me in a quandary... oh the hell with it, let me get a quarter. George Washington picked the choo-choos in a close one. Just for giggles, Purdue 10 - W. whoever
the hell 6.

Shife-
PURDUE

Topolk-
The Boilermakers have had a pretty good year. Sure, there was some adversity and injuries along the way, but hey, they made it to a bowl and took down Ohio State in the process. Purdue now gets to square off against the "mighty" Western Michigan Broncos, a team that finished somewhere in the middle of the pack in the MAC. I'll be honest, I know next to nothing about W. Michigan other than they're some unimportant, directional Michigan school, but that's enough for me to guess that the Boilermakers shouldn't have too much trouble. BTFU, the steel craftsmen win big here.
Western Michigan 13, Purdue 27

Phats- Normally I would complain about this bowl, not because of playing a MAC school, because of the weather! Who the hell wants to go to a bowl game in Detroit??? I have been to every bowl game Purdue has gone to since Joe Tiller came to the program, I of course liked it better when it was on Purdue's dime, but we still go and we will be there for this one. I am not sure what to expect here, I know WMU has a good QB and WR but apparently they can't stop the run, and guess what that is our speciality soo I look for our talented young running backs to win this for us in a shootout.
PURDUE 41 western michigan 28
FINAL PURDUE 37 western michigan 32
Rocket- WOOHOO
Thomas- WOOHOO
Duck- WOOHOO
Jef- WOOHOO
Emily- WOOHOO
Booya- WOOHOO
Shife- WOOHOO
Topolk- WOOHOO




Hail Hail to old Purdue all Hail to our old gold and black
Hail Hail to old Purdue our friendship may she never lack
Ever Grateful, ever true thus we raise our song a new FIRE UP!
Of the days we've spent with you, all Hail our own Purdue
GO BOILERS!

BTFU!!!

Almost Christmas




My favorite holiday is almost here, I am so excited. I love Christmas for all the wrong reasons probably, I get time off work, I get gifts, the decorations, the music, and of course the giving as I love seeing my family happy when they open what I have gotten them. Don't worry I know the true "Meaning of the season" I am pretty proud of myself this year I am actually completely done shopping which might be a world record for me, now I just need to find someone to wrap them, any volunteers???

Since I couldn't sleep tonight and you all are running out of shopping days I thought i'd share my wish list for this year so you can get to shopping.

1- a new football coach at Purdue.(Sadly it's not going to happen coach hope does not appear headed towards being fired boo!)

2- Robbie Hummel to lead the Boiler basketball team to an unexpected final four. If you follow college basketball you know Hummel's story. Quite possibly one of the greatest kids to ever come thru Purdue, and when I say that I mean as a person not a basketball player. He tore his ACL two years ago at Minnesota when we were currently the hottest team in the country easily headed for a #1 seed and only 4 games left we lost in the sweet 16. He rehabbed, got back and last year first day of practice he tore it again, but more painful was watching his reaction as we were upset in the NCAA tournament, in street clothes on the bench he was crying, not a few tears here and there he was CRYING it was heart breaking. He said afterwards he let a city, a college, and his best friends his teammates down. No Mr Hummel you didnt you're a class act and deserve a happy ending!

3- a new car! Hey I can try right?

Alright more realistic stuff I am asking for
Books- TONS AND TONS of books I love to read, a gift card will do
Cash- Who wouldn't take cash!
Clothes- But I have seen how some of you dress and not sure I trust your styles again gift card


There ya go oh yeah and baked goods from Bekah!! If you don't know her you're missing out she is the best dessert maker I know.

What's on your wish list this year??

Pizza Pizza

Well, the bowl bids have been extended post season play now begins. For the Boilers we will head north to Detroit and play in the Little Caesar's Pizza Bowl vs Western Michigan out of the MAC conference. This is good and bad, first the good it's close so we can drive and that means I will be going woohoo! Second, it's a much more winnable game(although we could easily lose) than where they were predicting. The bad the weather call me a spoiled but bowl games should be in warm destinations who the hell wants to go to Detroit, or Idaho for a bowl game?? Maybe I was spoiled my four years I got to go to San Antonio twice, Tampa, and Pasadena. Most experts had us going to the Ticket City Bowl down in Texas, but what they didn't see happening was Penn State not being wanted by most big ten bowls. Northwestern at 6-6 actually jumped PSU for the Houston bowl, and then ticket city chose the Lions over us and Illinois. That is OK with me for starters it would be a match up nightmare for us playing Houston. I can't believe some of the comments from Penn State fans, and players about Houston being a high school team.

As for other bowls, some good match ups I think the Stanford/Oklahoma State match up might be better than the national championship game. I am not sure what the Sugar bowl was thinking, well I know what they were thinking money, when taking Virginia Tech??? Seriously the ACC was not that good this year not sure they deserved a second team in the BCS games I felt bad for both Boise State and Kansas State.

I will be doing a bowl pick em contest and I hope all you guest pickers this year will join me!! What I will do is I will have you pick your team's game, the Purdue game, and the National Championship game. No prize for this except pride I save giving out a prize for the march madness contest.

This weekend didn't start off so hot for Boilermaker sports, on Saturday the men's basketball team traveled to #11 Xavier and played amazing for 30 mins unfortunately the game is 40 mins. After leading by 19 with 9 mins to go we couldn't hold on and lost. Lets just say I was in a BAD mood. However, it was great to see our volleyball team who is the #5 National seed advance to the sweet 16 for the second straight year, and then today our #16 women's basketball team beat #4 and defending National Champ Texas A&M. So, the weekend rounded out pretty good.

NON SPORTS
AMAZING RACE SPOILERS ROCKET IF YOU HAVEN"T SEEN IT DON'T READ :)

Down to the final 3 on the Amazing Race, and I like all three teams. Although lately Marcus and Aramani have been getting on my nerves, so they are probably the last team I want to win. How about the way the snowboarders got eliminated?? They were in first and just took off, although both Ernie and Cindy, and Marcus and Aramani got lucky in that they were headed the same place the snowboarders were at, but the cabbies all talked. So, in that I was glad Jeremy and Sandy who might be my favorite team, won the leg. Should be a good finale. I am ready to send my audition tape in, who is my partner Rocket?? Shife?? Duck??

Anyone started their Christmas shopping? I actually have my nephews and my mom done!! My sister and I went out black Friday and I got the nephews an Xbox so I am excited for them to open that. What's everyone going to get me?? haha I went out with friends Sat night our town put up a big display on our fairgrounds for the first time ever and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. My friends wanted to walk thru it, even though I am pretty sure you weren't suppose to but I am glad we did. When we got to the end the dude taking the money laughed and said I have never seen anyone walk thru before! After that we went to this house in another town that has a huge display where their lights are synchronized to music. It amazes how they do that, and I wonder what their neighbors think??

So kind of a crazy here the local high school swim teams set out the other day for a meet that was 2 hours away about 10 mins from the school the girls coach noticed something wasn't right with their driver. Boy was she right the driver was DRUNK at 8am!! The coached called the school they had her pull over, and thank god those kids were moved to the boys bus and got there safely, the bus driver ignored the school and drove off after they had the girls off safely and was arrested. This is sad, and scary especially being a coach we trust these driver's to get us there safely we shouldn't have to worry that they might be drunk

I have been playing words with friends lately, I like it but I found out my aunt CHEATS so I am no longer playing her haha. WTF getting on a scrabble cheat site to play?? Doesn't that take the fun out of it??

Alright there is a pretty good update, hope everyone has a great week!
Phats
