The Philadelphia Eagles don't suck, Tim Tebow does and I still have no idea if my Sexy Stan Van Gundy Halloween costume is Sexy enough.
Welcome to the Daily Radar, the scariest thing next to starting Chris Johnson on your fantasy team. Be sure to leave some spooktacular Halloween comments in the Boo section below.
Let's Dish.
In this edition: Philadelphia Eagles finally decide to show up...BCS blah, blah controversy...Latest Tebow Disaster...World Series Belongs to Red Birds...David Beckham not as hot but can still ball...Hottest Damn Videos of the Day
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES FINALLY PLAY FOOTBALL
The Philadelphia Eagles haven't looked like a dream nor a team in the early goings this season. Then the Dallas Cowboys showed up to treat the Eagles to a rousing victory. We fans were then given a reason to watch scary movies by halftime.
Question on Everybody's Mind: Have the Eagles (sorry) landed?
Our Take: I say yes. Their defense actually looked like it could stop another professional team for four quarters. Barring a Michael Vick injury, this team should begin to roll. We can also credit Tony Romo for apparently going as Tim Tebow for Halloween...clever.

As if the NFL knew I was nursing a hangover and badly needed a nap, they scheduled some awful games in the afternoon followed by this clunker. Thanks for the shuteye, it was duly noted and much appreciated. The lack of interesting games let me watch Shaun of the Dead for the 33rd time.

BCS IS SILLY...SILLY, I TELL YOU
The latest tickler from the BCS sideshow was Stanford nearly getting beat by an overrated USC team, and getting a bump because of it. That's as far as I can be interested in a sport that pays their players far too much these days. Bring on LSU and Alabama!
Question on Everybody's Mind: Did BCS get the week right this time?
Our Take: Sorta. I can hardly be asked to care about such a worthless week when the real fun is about to begin. LSU and Alabama are about to give us a real answer to the BCS power struggle.

I always try to find the humor in every situation. I can't help but laugh at Boise State who is forever destined to be the "not good enough" team in the nation. They are like the Grim Reaper failing to beat Bill and Ted no matter how hard he tries.

TIM TEBOW THE WINNER GOES AS LOSER FOR HALLOWEEN
I have no idea what happened. I was told that Tebow was simply a winner and that he would always be just that. On Sunday he managed to take a big fat dumpster dive on national TV. Yay, us.
Question on Everybody's Mind: Will Tebow ever be the man?
Our Take: No. He won't. But the good news is that I can feel the interest in Timmy Tebow waning already. We may be a hater nation, but it's no fun to pick on the helpless. That's just mean.
Hype Meter: 4 out of 5 Teb-o'-lanterns
It's finally time for Tebowites to recognize that Tebow was one helluva college football QB but is more punching bag than accurate passer with the big boys. The talk will now center on what to do with Tebow. Next comes the discussion on whatever happened to that guy Tebow.

BASEBALL LEAVES ANOTHER HOLE IN SPORTS WORLD
Last week delivered an amazing set of games that culminated in the underdog St. Louis Cardinals winning the World Series Friday night. By Monday morning, we will have had a couple days to digest the gut bomb that was the Fall Classic.
Question on Everybody's Mind: Did the World Series save baseball?
Our Take: The ratings for game 7 were tubular, but they will hardly save the game. Bud Selig has to get over himself and allow this game to reach the 21st century. If people can watch the NFL games we saw on Sunday and not be scared away, there is hope for baseball's resurgence.
Hype Meter: 3 out 5 Tim McCarver is Silents
The real item, of note is that another sport is taken off the docket. It's all NFL and NHL from here on out. Without the NBA, you can expect to get filled to the brim with football talk. Like my fifth plate at Hometown Buffet, I will eat it, but I don't have to like it.

MLS PLAYOFFS REALLY KICKOFF...GET IT? KICK OFF...BECAUSE THEY USE THEIR...NVM
Here's the thing. My mother used to shove vegetables down my throat because they were "good for me." It's precisely the reason I am now calling child's services on her 25 years later. Like my momma and veggies, I am giving you a dose of something good you may not want any parts of...I don't care.
Question on Everybody's Mind: Fine...What's the MLS playoffs you speak of?
Our Take: You can leave the sass at the door, and the MLS playoffs really kicked this Sunday as star-studded L.A. Galaxy took on wild-card winner New York Red Bulls. David Beckham and Thierry Henry featured and decided to dress up as zombies from the Walking Dead.
Hype Meter: 1 out of 5 Tell me Watcha Want Watcha Really Really Wants
The Galaxy took a 1-0 win against the Red Bulls in the first leg then a fight broke out. Concentrate on the fight breaking out after the match. Now consider the two teams will battle again for the whole burrito on Thursday. Also note that Landon "Landy Cakes" Donovan called New York the "dirtiest team" in the MLS. But that's just because he is a total clean freak.

MARQUEL WADE IS KIND OF AN ASS
Marquel Wade laid down the hit of the weekend when he leveled a defenseless Jonathan Krause who never touched the ball. Like a little kid acting up in Target, Wade was taken to the locker room by the scruff of his neck...then possibly spanked.

PERCY HARVIN HAS ANGER ISSUES
Percy Harvin got into a scuffle this Sunday on the sidelines. The only problem was that he was on the wrong sidelines. Harvin is a bad bad man if he has no problems mixing it up in enemy territory with no Viking in sight.
