Want to win a championship ?
In Sports one thing matters above everything else !

Whenever some sports training camp gets underway, the refrain is always the same.

Just stay healthy !

Especially if you have championship aspirations.

Well as it turns out, that goes double for the regular season.

Nothing illustrates that more than this past week in the NFL.

Sunday's headliners were suppose to be Colts-Pats and Giants-Cowboys.

How good did those pair look without Tom Brady and Tony Romo?

How bad does the Cowboys offense look without the latter?

How wide open did the AFC become without the former?

Why wouldn't coach Mark Trestman rest Anthony Calvillo in a nothing game against Edmonton

with the playoffs looming.

The biggest question is why he played in those games in any other year.

What if another team needed the Als to beat the Eskimos to help out their own post season chances ?

Too bloody bad !

Why should they put their championship hopes on the line to help your sorry ass?

STAY HEALTHY !

What do you think fans of the New Jersey Devils are thinking today about adding a 4th Stanley Cup?

No Marty, no chance !

Cross your fingers now that they'll still be around come playoff time when Mr. Zero returns to action.

So much for Terry Sawchuk's shutout mark this campaign.

STAY HEALTHY !

Heck, what if...

Ron LeFlore, Gary Carter and Tim Raines didn't get hurt in the grand Septembers of 1979, 80 and 81 ?

Pascual Perez took a Nolan Ryan Fastball on the finger trying to bunt one year.

STAY HEALTHY !

Tony Siragusa falling on Rich Gannon.

Sorry I'm a Raider fan and the only that got hurt with the tuck rule game was the last chance at a Super Bowl.

That being Al Davis' last year before sinility.

Want your Habs to have a chance at winning a Stanley Cup?

You know what to wish for over that birthday cake after you close your eyes !
