I've had a shit-ton of fun today and it's all your fault. I hope you're happy... just like me. Beers and scotch have been consumed, games have been watched. The Giants squandered opportunities against a superior team. The Pats did what they always do. Them Brownies (as of my typing)

He looked quite unimposing as he stepped off the bus. I was sitting on a bench nearby and he asked me, "where am I?" I said, "somewhere you probably don't want to be'. "Story of my life. You got a smoke for an old man?" I gave him the last

Look at me over here, chortling with joy. Man, this takes me back to high school and my first girlie friend. After a few sessions of furtive squeezing and such she said, "this shirt is so uncomfortable". She got up, took off said shirt and then said, "should I take

Geez, those boos really hurt, guys. I'm just pointing out the obvious. Some more games were played last night. Let's have a look. -Not only does LAMAR! have an arm, he's got a leg as well. Two of them, in fact. RG3 says, "enjoy it while it lasts, kid." I can't blame

Actually, I'm not much of a fighter. I'm more of a lover... hmm that's not really correct either. I've always found that to be a strange dichotomy, myself. When it comes down to it I guess I'm more of an appreciator-of good scotch, good books, good profit margins, good games,

There were games played yesterday and there are observations of players to be made. Here goes: Case Keenum was presentable. (12 of 18) AP averaged almost 5.5 ypc. He's old and tired though-I think he was just happy to see the field. The Giants pass protection worked for large parts of the game.

Thursday. Friday. Saturday. Sunday. Spread your wings, preseason football, show 'em what you got. This is the best quality you'll get as most starters will play into the third quarter like the heroes that they are. What did we do to deserve such a blessing? I think it's because we

Well, what have we got here? Looks like a double-header-each of which could be interesting in different ways. The Jags and Vikes will be upper echelon teams in their respective conferences and should take their divisions as well. As for the Raiders and Rams? Umm, hmm... This premise of mine

It's shitty preseason ball and a couple of shitty teams are involved in this double-header. Call it "un-beautiful symmetry", maybe? Whatever, my eyebulbs are gonna catch some action. One thing I've got an issue with is the fact that this is the first weekend that all teams are playing and

I'm only human. Well, that's the excuse I use when I screw up. Not really though but I use that to explain why I almost always cheer for that team that comes out of nowhere and against expectations, plays well or has some sort of uphill battle. Yeah, I've cheered
