With apologies to my man Bill Simmons, otherwise known as ESPN's "The Sports Guy", here are my random thoughts about the first (three) weeks of the NAB Cup...
I think I'd take a blood transfusion from Amy Winehouse before I put money on Sydney to win a NAB Cup match.
If you are an AFL footballer, you may want to think twice before bumping another player.
Geelong are going to be hard to beat this pre-season.
Watch out, AFL, Brendan Goddard is coming.
It may be a slow start to the season for the Doggies.
Are Carlton the Tiger Woods of the AFL pre-season, or is Tiger Woods the Carlton of golf? I thought so.
Jarryd Roughead may kick more goals this season than Lance Franklin.

If you thought no one paid any attention to the Dockers before this season, you haven't seen anything yet. They may get 10,000 to Melbourne v Fremantle if lucky.
How long will it take the West Coast Eagles to forgive themselves for picking Nick Natanui over Daniel Rich? 10 years? 15 years?
Kudos to Kelli Underwood, who called Saturday's game with the amount of excitement a football match in February deserves. (And, no, I'm not being sarcastic.)
It'll be a cold, cold day in Hell before the AFL moves a NAB Cup game for a A-League Grand Final again.
