Mini-petty-diatribe time
This is not a diatribe on what I think about gays and lesbians. If that’s what you were looking for when you clicked on this, all I can give you is this: in terms of your sexual preference, I do not care, unless you’re going after my main squeeze (otherwise known as ‘Lady EZ’). Then...
Here's a hint: he wouldn't...
For the Louisville readers (and anyone else interested, I guess), just so I’ve got this straight. Louisville Cardinals quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is the top quarterback prospect in the upcoming NFL Draft according to many of the draftniks. He’s also graduated. From his twitter account: As of December 16, 2013 10:34 PM, I can officially say...
Matt Stafford didn't, all of the sudden, play a bad game
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this. A team plays well enough to win. Has the game all but won. But one final drive by the other team sets them up for a chance, albeit marginal, to win the game. The other team takes advantage of that chance, wins the game. It happens. And...
The worst part: some media help the cause...
It seems as though the NFL and it’s teams are proactive in almost every other department, other than making personnel changes at the most opportune times in a season. Why is that? Plus, clothing gets “retired” and Mark Trestman is a PR stuntman! And do we have any other pieces of clothing we’re going to...
From childhood, to playing, to coaching, to nightclubs...
As Mike Ditka is recognized in Chicago during Monday Night Football for his contribution to the Chicago Bears franchise, I pulled from the archives from earlier this year on a interview the two did that touched on a myriad of subjects. (Sound courtesy of 101 ESPN) [Photo credit: Fansided.com]
With all due respect to the alleged victim, this means a lot on the field...
I feel bad for a lot of different people in this episode. It goes without saying. This alleged victim, whether you believe her or not, has had her life changed forever, and probably not in a good way. The same for Jameis Winston. It’s a tough topic off the field. However, in front of the...
Also, it's fun to make fun of sports media, right?
I know, I know. Not the best visual–Tom Crean and Jim Boeheim. Just listen. Also, we go through some of the BCS arguments that I continue to hear. [Photo credit: InsideTheLoudHouse.com]
My favorite time of year... biases get in the way big time
One of the things I will truly miss when the current Bowl Championship Series format goes away after this season is all of the arguments that media and fans make that are soaked in their own biases. To me, it falls second only to politics as the time where fans and media are the most...
I learned about sports and food... and dumb refs, again.
Happy #CyberMonday. Let’s do it… 1. Okay, I’ve had two nights to sleep on it now, and I’m still coming to the conclusion that the finish to the Iron Bowl, given the stakes, is the best finish to a football game, ever. Anyone have a better candidate? Let me know in the comments section if...
