Monday Night in New Orleans, Drew Brees surpassed Dan Marino’s nearly 30 year old single-season passing yards record.
He did it on the Saints last offensive play of the game, a 9 yard TD pass to Darren Sproles while NOLA was already sporting a 30 point lead. This gave Brees the record with 5,087 yards, and a [...]
For those of you still alive in your fantasy football playoffs… I salute you. What did we learn this week?
-Memo to Terrell Suggs; If you call yourself “Sizzle”, and claim in the Sunday Night Football intro that you are a graduate of “Ball-So-Hard University”, you probably shouldn’t let Phillip Rivers hang 34 on you in [...]
Watching Albert Pujols morph into a modern day Senior Octubre’ has made the baseball playoffs watchable, but let’s be honest… Sundays are for football. What did we learn this week?
-The Dallas Cowboys are one of the most storied franchises in the National Football League. Hall of Fame running backs Emmitt Smith, Tony Dorsett, and countless [...]
Fantastic football weather across the midwest meant chili and beer kept us warm over the weekend. What did we learn this week?
- The pigskin dream team in Philly mimicked the hardwood dream team from Miami again this week disappearing in the fourth quarter as the 49ers stole a victory 24-23. The Eagles’ run [...]
Everyone has to admit that the Quarterback Rating statistic is cryptic, if not completely pointless.
ESPN has hired a dozen super-nerds to come together and create a quarterback rating system that actually tries to quantify how good the quarterback is. It is called Total Quarterback Rating, or QBR for short.
Sound like a mouthful? It is.
The new [...]
Two weeks until the Super Bowl. How will we pass the time?
For me, I decided the best way to pass the time was to rank the quarterbacks in the NFL based on their performances from this season. Because that’s what I do.
The Larry Gigli Group: Absolutely Unwatchable.
32. Jimmy Clausen and the misfits in Carolina. One [...]
In lieu of writing about what we learned this week, I thought I would take a page out of JP14’s playbook and share what I am thankful for. Beyond the obvious answers of family, friends, health and well being… here are 50 things that I am thankful (and not thankful!) for…
1.) Michael Jordan thinks about as [...]
Many prognosticators claimed the Miami Heat as this summer’s big winner. HA! The real victors this summer? Jewish people.
“You’re crazy McMahon!” you say. The Jewish folks haven’t had a legitimate American sports star to cheer for since “The Left Arm of God”, Sandy Koufax. But no longer.
The first major coup for Judaism came when freshly [...]
I am going to preface this entire article by saying that I absolutely despise everything Duke. I grew up as a Kentucky basketball fan, so you can understand my hatred (The name Christian Laettner makes me sick).
Earlier this week, Bleacher Report and Nola.com both reported that Greg Paulus signed with the Saints after a weekend [...]
With the Super Bowl a little more than a week away the fan craze is at an all time high in New Orleans. Maybe a little too high.
The Jewish population is ready to follow a certain “saint” (Drew Brees) all the way until the end. Fans are pushing for a special prayer set to the [...]
Every now and then we like to see what Google Suggests. Start typing in words and you’ll get those handy little suggestions. For example type in “How many times can a” and get this.
So it seemed only appropriate that we had an NFL Playoff edition to find out what Google thinks about the quarterbacks still playing.
