vick

Michael Vick pwned the Redskins lastnite on the NFL’s biggest in-season stage. Monday Night Football is the television primetime showcase for teams around the league. Brett Favre has used MNF to become legendary. Michael Vick is now doing the same thing.

In the first half alone Vick had thrown for three touchdowns and ran for another score. That is some QB’s best game ever, and he still had another half of football to play. The final score of 59-21 doesn’t even describe how much of a blowout this game was.

The Redskins just earlier that day had granted Donovan McNabb a contract extension of $78 million dollars. What do you think Vick is going to be going for at the end of the season when he becomes a free agent? Trust me, it will be more than $78 million dollars.

Scaping The G.O.A.T.

moss

Randy Moss might be the most talented wide receiver to ever play the game. Jerry Rice was the hardest working WR but Randy Moss possesses more talent and imagination. Too bad for Randy that he gets ‘niggerfied’ when the teams he plays for aren’t meeting the expectations of others.

Had Randy Moss sent a picture of his dick to a busty cheerleader I bet you his ass would be in jail right now. Instead he says the team buffet sux ass and that gets him deported? He’s actually in a better spot now than when the season began. With Vince Young at QB and All-Pro running back Chris Johnson these Titans could be the next 1990’s Cowboys.

Now if the Tennessee Titans don’t get to the Super Bowl this year I’m sure it will be Randy Moss’ fault, or at least that will be the story played out in the pro sports press releases. Don’t believe them hypes.

The DP.com Pick’Em Pool is halfway thru the 2010 campaign and I’m stuck in 10th place 12 pts behind the leader (who has won two DP.com football pools previously). No one is technically out of it yet and this year’s winner gets a DJ Hero2 game for the Xbox. That would be enough to motivate Randy Moss. What’s your problem?

Football Concussions Are Getting Ugly…

The biggest scourge on professional sports isn’t steroids or human growth hormone abuse. It’s the damage that is done to player’s longterm health caused by brain injury. Concussions are incredibly dangerous and shockingly underreported. I think part of the problem is that our hyper-masculine culture won’t acknowledge perceived weakness inside of sports.

I remember how DONAVAN McNABB was lauded for playing a football game on a broken leg. His effort became heroic and legendary. When my Jets had KEN O’BRIEN under center he was chided for not being able to withstand the crushing hits from defensive linemen and linebackers.

The thing is this… Today’s athletes are fucking machines that are so well conditioned they can run laps around the players from yesteryear. Football players wear so much equipment that they are veritable weapons in polycarbonate armor. If the league REALLY wanted to protect players they would remove all the body armor and put flags in the offensive players waistbands.

There isn’t any other way to prevent these athletes from knocking themselves silly unless you remove the equipment that enables them to propel themselves thru the air with reckless abandon. The number of players suffering from concussions is getting ugly.

It’s time again for the players to just be plain ugly.

Remembering The Alamo…

wade phillips

The Dallas Cowboy’s head coach Wade Phillips was given the figurative kiss of death from the Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

“I’m very comfortable that we can do better”

Phillips won’t last thru the weekend if the Cowboys can’t get it up against the suddenly flaccid Vikings [ll].

The following week has the Cowboys hosting the Giants in Dallas. This could be Wade Phillips last stand.

I know its against league uniform regulations but someone should give Phillips a coonskin cap to rock on the sidelines a la Davy Crockett.

Remember the Alamo…

Turning Tight Ends Into Wide Receivers…

What if Donovan McNabb or heaven forbid Michael Vick had sent lewd and lascivious text messages to the female pictured above? Those dudes might would get lynched. Why is Brett Favre any different than those two quarterbacks? Well, I know why Brett Favre is different, but I want to act like America is the kind of place where people are judged by their actions towards others and no other mitigating factors.

The woman above is a former Playboy Playmate and was co-host of the New York Jets pre-game show during the season Favre was the Jets’ QB. Favre was into sending this hottie nude pics of his johnson (no magic) and hitting up her MySpace page as if her was a high school stalker. Instead of worrying so much about touching down in this girl’s end zone he should have helped the Jets score more.

Brett Farve’s wife just went through breast cancer surgery. She lost her both her tittays to cancer. Is this how he comforts his wife and children during their time of need? Does that douchebag even know that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month?!?

Brett Favre is a super selfish dude. He has had a charmed life where no one has told him ‘NO’ since he has shown he could throw a football a mile. People like Favre and Vick are the way they are because we endorse and co-sign their bullshit.

Favre should sit himself down now.

Not for the fans sake, but for his family’s sake.
