Let’s Blow, Buffalo

Monday, November 21st, 2011

As Chris Berman always says, no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately, the Bills appear to be perpetually traveling as members of the Donner Party. A once-promising season is swirling down the toilet after the Bills lost their third-straight game on Sunday, this one a 35-8 blowout at the ...

Apparently Buffalo Bills Fans Haven’t Suffered Enough

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

In one of the way-too-oftenly aired “Family Guy” re-runs, Chris Griffin marvels at how Kevin Costner keeps getting work. I was reminded of this after flipping though the infinite number of channels I have and stumbling across "Swing Vote" on one of my eight Starz channels. I often pose the same ...

Often Times The Obvious Answer Is The Right Answer

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Allen Iverson and the Memphis Grizzlies have parted ways after just three games. Anybody surprised by this? You’d think someone with the initials A.I., and referred to as The Answer would have known better. The Grizzlies are a team trying to build a young core, centered around Rudy Gay and O.J. Mayo. But ...

Is 2009 The Worst NFL Season Of All-Time?

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

The NFL is bigger and more popular than ever. But that doesn’t necessarily mean the league is better. There appears to be a large number of just awful teams this season. I’m talking absolutely putrid. Like teams you know are going to lose all week long. My roommate relayed a conversation he had ...

Donte Whitner is Just Like Me and You

Monday, September 21st, 2009

There are moments in sports where it's comforting to know that many of these highly paid athletes are just everyday kind of people that just happen to make loads of money. Take, for example, Cubs outfielder Milton Bradley. Now put yourself in the shoes of his teammates. Everybody knows that guy ...

Where Will Jay Cutler Be Sulking Next Year?

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

Well, my master plan of getting Jay Cutler the hell away from the AFC West because I can't stand seeing his utterly emotionless face on the sidelines is almost complete. Cutler has now demanded a trade after his feelings were hurt when the Broncos brought his name up in trade ...

The Year of The Loser

Friday, January 30th, 2009

Way back in '08, we here at Rumors and Rants proclaimed it the Greatest Year in Sports History. I know what you are thinking -- big deal. So did Sports Illustrated and ESPN and everyone else who makes widespread proclamations. Only we made the call in July. Basically, when something's up, ...

So, What Went Wrong?

Monday, January 5th, 2009

After what was arguably the most interesting final Sunday in NFL history -- The Big Lead at least had a premonition of this awesomeness, but it played out far wackier than any of us could have anticipated -- and a fairly decent Wild Card weekend, we're down the final eight playoff contestants. ...

R&R’s Weekend in Review

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008

We're starting a new segment here at Rumors and Rants called "Weekend in Review," mostly because it chronicles the events of the past weekend. I guess we'll have to do it again to qualify as a segment. And by "we" I mean myself. Also, I consider Monday to be part ...

Tuesday Evening Punter: Week 2.5

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

You've probably heard of the Tuesday Morning Quarterback. Here at Rumors and Rants, we'd like to provide you with a similar concept, only less verbose, half a day later and not as in-depth because we don't have any sort of TV package that allows us to see every football game ...
