  A lot of funny things happened this past week, but two definitely stood out as far as I’m concerned.  In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, President Barack Obama proudly proclaimed that he deserved “a solid B+” for his first year in office.  Huh? This is like Eric Mangini saying he deserves a B+ for the job he has done with the Cleveland Browns.  Maybe Obama thought the grade should be based on how fast he could spend government money.  Perhaps he felt his Nobel Peace prize justified such a lofty grade.  I voted for you POTUS, but let’s keep it real.   Based [...]

  It has now been about 45 hours and I’m just starting to get over yet another brutal San Diego Chargers loss.  While I could very easily lanuch into a 1000 word rant about the incompetence of Norv Turner, what’s the point?  The Denver Broncos are a much better football team and for all intents and purposes have already won the division.  When Turner decided that he should run his 5’6″ running back into the line on a crucial 3rd & goal in the first quarter (despite a similar play call earlier in the season against the Ravens that proved to be disastrous) I knew things would likely [...]

  Are you ready for some football?  The first weekend of the NFL season is upon us and the alcohol will be flowing in bars, restaurants and homes a few short hours from now.  Just to make things a little more interesting, you and your buddies should down a shot or a beer (or a shot and a beer for the hardcore crowd) every time one of the following ten things happens: 10. Brad “The Professor” Childress looks dazed and confused on the sidelines- The beard isn’t fooling anyone Childress, you are still Captain Clueless.  9.   Shane Lechler punts the football – Oakland’s most dangerous offensive weapon has gotten a lot [...]

  Subway $5 Footlong Faux Tweet Of The Day We can’t wait to have weekly play dates with the felon/degenerate daddy is bringing to Philadelphia.  We just couldn’t be happier! Garrett & Britt Reid       August 14th   Thanks to Tirico Suave & Ronnie for the assist on this morning’s Subway Faux Twitter Tweet Of The Day.  I’m still on the road traveling, but will try to post here and there over the next week.  Right now I’m north of Los Angeles hot on the trail of the guy that may have swiped Baron’s laptop.  If I’m able to confirm that he is the culprit, you’ll [...]

Terrell Owens has a new home in Buffalo but his mind – the bitter part of it at least – remains in Dallas: It doesn’t matter how long Terrell Owens stays with a team, his name always comes up when he leaves. In the three seasons Owens was in Dallas, he used games against the Eagles as public venting sessions about Donovan McNabb and Andy Reid. Now, Owens is in Buffalo, and he talked to FanHouse on Thursday afternoon about his release from the Cowboys. Owens said he talked to owner Jerry Jones twice about rumors he was going to [...]

The NFL competition committee conducted a survey of players and team officials to see if there was any support for changing the league’s overtime rules, which most fans agree are lame and crappy not to mention stupid.  The verdict:  nobody associated with the league wants the rules tweaked, therefore overtime will go on sucking for the foreseeable future.  Once again, the NFL demonstrates just how much it values the input of the public at large.  Do you feel sufficiently dissed, paying customers?  Or would you like your little insignificant faces stomped on a tiny bit more? Clearly, the NFL doesn’t [...]

Terrell Owens was rather stunningly signed to a one-year, $6.5 million contract by the Buffalo Bills Saturday, and in his introductory press conference, the happy receiver immediately went on the offensive against all the media negativity that has been swirling around him since basically forever.  “That’s all hearsay,” T.O. said of his history of being a jackass who tears up locker rooms like tornados tear up small Kansas towns.  “If you look at all of the comments that have come from all of my teammates with the Cowboys, it’s all been positive. Prior to that, I can’t really . . [...]

The Redskins started the season winning 6-of-8, and Jim Zorn was being hailed as a Coach of the Year candidate.  Since then, Washington has lost 5-of-6, and Zorn is closer to being fired than handed any kind of award.  Losing breeds internal strife, especially when the losing comes fast on the heels of winning and the expectations said winning fosters.  That the Redskins are suffering scads of such turmoil became obvious last week when Clinton Portis called Zorn out, sarcastically referring to him as “a genius.”  So what did the Redskins do in response to all this adversity?  Lost to [...]
