Your College Football Bowl Preview Part Three

Thursday, December 24th, 2009

Since you don't have to do anything with family again until next Thanksgiving, you might as well max out on football while it's still on television. Kidding. I'm kidding. We all know you're going to watch football on Thanksgiving anyway. Christmas too. Speaking of Christmas, my Chargers play Christmas night, and ...

Link Dump!

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Yep, that's pretty much the best football catch ever - Unathletic I'm not really worried about this dude's girlfriend so much as the apparent auto-erotic asphyxiation happening between him and his "horse" - Busted Coverage The story isn't so much that they broke the curse, but that Boston has become the most ...

Joakim Noah Says It All By Saying Nothing

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

It's no secret how we feel about the Chicago Bulls and their head coach Vinny Del Negro around here right now. Our good friend Hick Flick laid it out rather nicely the other day after our beloved NBA franchise blew a 35-point lead in the third quarter to the Sacramento Kings ...

Apparently I Can’t Pick A Wim-mer

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

I'm learning to appreciate a loser.  My Chicago Bears are outright pathetic with the consensus being both the head coach AND general manager need to go.  My hometown Indiana Pacers are a collection of nothing more than decent role players and it shows with a predictable last place standing in the Central ...

A Rocky Start For Brian Kelly At Notre Dame

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

When Brian Kelly took the head coaching job at Notre Dame, most people knew it would be a bit of a rocky transition. The Irish were already losing their top two players (Jimmy Clausen and Golden Tate) and had just one scholarship quarterback on the roster, and that guy is ...

I can't believe this was in the 2000's. Feels like 25 years ago - Randall Simon's Sausages Joe McKnight will not be seen in Seattle because he has "paperwork to do" according to Pete Carroll. Riiiiiight - Unathletic Way to catch a touchdown after my fantasy team is already eliminated. F*cking Mike ...

Chicago’s Worst Coach

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

This week, we've learned that the biggest imbecile pacing the sidelines in Chicago is not Lovie Smith. Though Lovie sets an incredible standard for all others to be matched by, he pales in comparison to Bulls head dunce Vinny Del Negro. Please note that I did not call Vinny the biggest ...

Your College Football Bowl Preview Part Two

Monday, December 21st, 2009

After three games that left a lot to be desired, though MTSU/Southern Miss wasn't too bad, we've finally made it to three games that absolutely are worth watching. I'm not gonna blow smoke up your ass about these games being so amazing that you can't miss them, but I promise ...

Dear Mike Holmgren: Goooood Luck

Monday, December 21st, 2009

Mike Holmgren is one heck of a football guy. Really, he is. Just consider his coaching career. Holmgren has taken two franchises -- the only two he has ever coached -- to the Super Bowl. He won Super Bowl XXI with Brett Favre in Green Bay and returned to the big ...

Gasol To Sign Extension. Kobe Next?

Friday, December 18th, 2009

We've been hearing whispers that Pau Gasol was ready to extend his current contract with the Los Angeles Lakers for a while now, but now there appears to be some confirmation of that move. HOOPSWORLD is reporting that Gasol is nearing a deal on a three-year extension that would keep him ...
