A conversation with my anonymous friend "Ty'Rell" made me realize the NFL needs to have a rule where former players can NOT commentate a game in which they played a significant amount of time for that team. They either go full Rodney Harrison and make the patriots appear to be the alpha and omega, or go the Troy Aikman route in which they continually bash the person at their former position. Unbiased somehow is an adjective that is rarely used synonymously with "former player".
Thank you to Delonte West for proving that NBA players are just as intriguing as nfl players with breaking the law. I find it impressive that one would be riding a motorcycle with a guitar case to start with...but a little more impressed with the fact that you had a shotgun (not a gee-tar) in this case....[throw in 2 loaded handguns to boot]. All this and the reports still referred to him as "Lebron's teammate" the entire time.
Hey, did anybody know the WNBA playoffs were going on? Seriously, i had no clue. The highlight on sportscenter was about as long as that question.
Herschel Walker has signed on at age 47 to fight in MMA's strikeforce.....yet another example that the NFL needs to have an "exit strategy" for the players leaving the league with a NO-01k....This.will.end.badly
If you give me Peyton or Drew at the helm (that means quarterback) and any receivers that have 2 arms and 2 legs, I like my chances against just about any team in the NFL. Drew was slightly...well slighted last year in the MVP balloting (2nd all time in yards for one season without a single 1,000 yard receiver or rusher) but chalk that up to the 8-8 record. He should be #1 thus far in the polls for that honor and I don't see that trend coming to an end this upcoming weekend.
Why is it that you can give SOME girls a plane ticket that says SFO (or random airport code) and they know exactly where the destination is, yet ask "who's playin" when it says DET 0 N.E. 24 on the screen? Is this some sort of mental block? Just say the word and I'll put up a diagram on how to read the scores on the screen. This will enable you to walk into a room and seamlessly transition into the crowd without having that confused face. You may not know who has the ball or whats going on...but at least you'd know who's winning!
At some point in my life I will HAVE to see what it's like to come to the sidelines and suck oxygen from a machine.
Lastly....when is too much...TOO MUCH? (this is NOT my desk by the way...my neighbors)
