....Playing Football. Yesterday afternoon's "Game of the Week" on Fox came to us live from Lincoln Financial Field in the lovely City of Brotherly Shove, Philadelphia. The Cowboys were in town to take on the hometown Eagles before a capacity crowd. They certainly did not get what they paid for or expected from their beloved Eagles, or the Cowboys for that matter. It was as described by Troy Aikman and Joe Buck as "perhaps the ugliest game I have ever had the displeasure to observe". Last year's Rushing Champion, DeMarco Murray, now with the Eagles, finished the day with two total yards from scrimmage and the only first down they got in the first half was by penalty. To be honest, the Eagles were so inept I think my old high school team could have beat them yesterday. The final score of 20 to 10 Cowboys did not do the Cowboys any favors in Philly and the local crowd was vociferous in their disapproval of their heroes.
It was perhaps the most difficult Cowboy game I have ever watched. It was ugly and got uglier when Cowboy QB Tony Romo was sacked in the 3rd Quarter, breaking his left clavicle that he had previously broken in 2010. The prognosis is 8 to 10 weeks before he can play again. Brandon Weeden, the backup QB, did what as required of him, leading a drive down the field for a TD. Weeden went 7 for 7 passing on the drive. It was a win nonetheless, but a costly one. The Cowboys Nation is waiting with bated breath for the results of today's further testing. It will be interesting to see how this plays out as the season goes along. Keep your fingers crossed Cowboy Fans.
Now as for your Monday with Mozart, I have a wonderful live performance from the great Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna. The Concert piece is Mozart's penultimate Symphony, Number 41 in C Major "Jupiter" with a marvelous performance by the Chamber Orchestra of Europe under the baton of Nicolaus Harnoncourt. As a companion piece over on my tumblr, you may join Leonard Bernsein and the New York Philharmonic performing Mozart's Piano Concerto Number 24 in C Minor in a live radio broadcast recording from 1959. The Piano Soloist is Glenn Gould.
