Happy New Year!

Once again spotted out on the town...Donovan Mcnabb in his pretty red party dress, this time, celebrating the new year!




I don't know why he is making that face...maybe he is enjoying the music or maybe that guy behind his is standing closer than we think.

But if you are wondering what McNabb's New Year's resolution is....

"I won't score any more NFL touchdowns!"- McNabb

So far so good, buddy! Way to get shut out! As usual...keep dancing!

NFL Recap Week Fourteen: It's Been a Long Time

I know. I know. I haven’t written in a while. I am sure you are all thinking that it’s because the Giants have been losing, but I was away for Thanksgiving, my brother got married and I’ve been packing up my belongings for a move… and who am I kidding, it is hard to write a blog about football when your football team is losing every week.

Let’s try and see what I have missed since week 10.

I guess I can’t avoid it, the New York Giants got spanked on several occasions, but let’s look at the bright side, this week Eli had zero interceptions (they did fumble four times), we figured out why we have Hakeem Nix on the team with 110 yards receiving and New York did go in front 31-30, when Domenik Hixon broke two tackles for a 61-yard, catch-and-run score and even after a big play, they didn’t quit. They scored again for 38 total points! (Eagles had 45) Did I mention Eli threw for 391 yards? (My little boy is growing up!) But not matter how bad a Giant’s team…they can still beat the Dallas Cowgirl and we will always have that to smile about!

Plus, who needs to win the NFC East (I DO!) when you can be on the Simpsons. (Isn’t that what the Eagles say about Super Bowls? Who needs them?)


Poor Cooper. While we are on the subject of Mannings, Eli’s bog bro, Peyton remains undefeated.

And I would imagine his conversation before the game, went something like this…



Yeah, that’s right, Peyton “laser rocket arm” Manning, threw three picks this week, but just to be safe, he also threw 4 touchdown passes breaking NFL records for most consecutive regular-season wins (22) and most wins in a decade (114), plus beating the Broncos 16-28 and wrapping up home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs. Yup. Just like that.

The New Orleans Saints also remain undefeated, but by the skin of their teeth. (Do we have skin on our teeth?) After almost losing to the Redskins in OT (as if it isn’t embarrassing enough to be in OT with Washington), the Saints skimmed passed the Falcons this week in a 26-26 win. Did I mention, Atlanta was playing without Matty Ice (how can that not be your favorite NFL nickname?) and some other star guy? A W is a W, but New Orleans is scarping together wins…let’s face it Brees, you are just not a Manning.

After losing Big Ben to a concussion and their back up guy, whose name I never knew, to a broken wrist in the same game, the Steelers were pretty much opening up for fan participation day. Big Ben sat out due to a fear for his due to previous concussions, but he’s back and apparently no one told the O-line about the need to protect Ben’s head. Steelers lost their fifth straight game to the Cleveland freakin Browns. (it’s like when the Eagles lost to the Raiders…remember that? Hahaha!) and Roethlisberger was sacked 8 times, but don’t worry, he’s been sacked 9 before. Seriously, that can’t be good for that concussion thing he has going on. Put the fliers back up guys! 6-13, Browns.


(It isn't mean. Jeff Garcia has played every where...and done nothing)

The Bills beat the Chiefs and the Vikings beat the Bengals, but Ihate Brett Favre and I don’t care. Moving on…

Remember the Sanchise? The cute little name the Jets gave their team after 2 wins with Mark Sanchez…you know, before they went on a losing streak? Well, you know what the Jets needed to break that losing streak? To lose the Sanchise! Kellen Clemens (who???), the guy who was supposed to take Pennington's, place before Favre and Favre’s place, before Sanchez, led the other NY team to a 26-3 victory over the Bucs. If you overlook the fact that they were playing Tampa Bay, it seems impressive for a first ever start. ($5 if you can name the Bucs quaterback!)

Tom who? The Pats lost to Miami last week and again this week to Caronlina. Looking a lot less like an 18 AND ONE quaterback this season…blame the super models that keep poppin’ out his kids. Giselle gave birth to Tom’s second son with a super model and they are having trouble coming up with a name…hmm…son of Tom Brady and Giselle? How about “I’m gonna be hot and rich” Brady?

Ravens over Lions 48-3. Texans over Seahawks, 34-7. Titans over Rams, 47-7. No surprises there!

But I’ve got great news, the Redskin beat the Raiders 34-14. Why is that great news? Because it means the Eagles are the only team in the NFC East to lose to the Raiders. And “Oakland Raiders?” has become my favorite line of the season. Although, Philly’s also first in the NFC East, so…I guess it isn’t as great as I thought, but you know what is?

The Cowgirls lost to the Chargers. After Dallas’s kicker blamed several missed field goals on faulty ball handling by the snap holder, the Cowgirls decided to return to Romo as the holder. Did they forget why they replaced Romo as holder in the first place? On 4th and goals before the half, Dallas sets up for a field goal….the ball is snapped…and the hold is bobbled. Seriously Romo, you are still doing that? 20-17, Chargers.

NFL Recap: Weeks 9 and 10 (Re-post)

Oops! Forgot one pic. Re-post!

Week 9 just happens to be the toughest week of the season for me. It doesn’t always fall on week nine, but it always falls when the Eagles play the Cowgirls. I’ve gotta root for someone, and it takes all that I have to say “Go Dallas.” (I really means, so Dallas, just far enough to beat the Eagles and hopefully injure a few key players on each team, while you’re at it). But I guess as good as it can be 20-16 Dallas.

This season, however, I got to skip the gut wrenching feeling of having to root for anything related to Jerry Jones because I was in Disney World. But even in the most magical place on earth, on Sunday…it is a football day!



So in case you were wondering where Brandon Jacobs and Eli Manning were in over time against the Chargers…they were parking their stroller to get on the Nemo Ride at Epcot. I didn’t see Antonio Gates in line, needless to say 20-21, Chargers.



I saw Jerod Mayo and Logan Mankins from New England at the Food and Wine festival, but since the Pats were playing the Dolphins Mayo’s vacation wasn’t a problem, who needs D? And I don’t know who Mankins is, so he probably wasn’t missed….surprised they even sell his jersey. 17-27, New England



Barber was out there, too. No, the other Barber, from the Tampa Bay Bucs. However, since the Bucs have been off since week one, it is no wonder he is headed towards Epcots “Future World” sign. Perhaps he wants to know if Tampa Bay will ever win a game…oh wait! They won this week! I was so used to them losing, I just assumed. Maybe he is going to find out if he will ever be traded…to ANYONE! 38-28 Bucs over Pac.


Week 9
Then I saw this guy, and I was a little confused. Until I remembered “hey buddy, #29 on the Titans is some guy named Ryan Mouton. Don’t run out and buy a new jersey too fast, now!” But good news…Titans beat the Niners 34-27.



I saw a Randy Moss jersey, which is understandable because there hasn’t been a jersey worth buying on the Raiders since Randy Moss. Who are they gonna buy? Jamarcus Russel? (Actually we saw one of those, but I didn’t wanna embarrass the guy!) However, Oakland didn’t play this week…not that they play any week, but this week there was no game scheduled. Not that it is any different to a Raider fan!



There were several Peyton Mannings, but Peyton is a football God. He doesn’t need to be on the field to win…6’4”, 230lbs, laser rocket arm…he can throw from anywhere. Remaining undefeated like the excellent specimen of football perfection he is, Colts over Texans. 17-20.



A much lighter, chubbier Reggie Bush was headed to get his picture taken with a Disney Princess, wearing his headphones. Who wears headphones at Disney? Afraid someone might talk to you? Perhaps listening to the game? Still undefeated. Saints over Panther 20-30.

But perhaps the most surprising...who wears a KC jersey, in public?



Week 10

A week without the Giants isn’t really a football week, but good news…they didn’t lose again! So, things are looking up for my G-men. Let’s hope a week off, is all they need.

LaDainian Tomlinson, returned just in time to run up with 96 yards, two touchdowns, against “the Birds” (as if there weren’t any other birds in the NFL). 31-23, San Diego. But don’t worry the Eagle’s fans kept it class, as usual.


The Packers sacked Romo five times and held him to 251 yards passing in serious loss for the Cowgirls. That’s a lot of sacking, but if Jessica isn’t doing it anymore, someone’s gotta, right? 17-7, Green Bay.


(Yes, Romo always keeps his hat on and the Green Bay guy was cold...gimme a break!)

Which means the only NFC East team to bring home a win was Washington, that’s right, the Skins. I checked several times, several sources, but yes, it did happen. Called hell, temperature still pretty hot, so it must have been a fluke. It is okay to relax. 27-20 over Denver.

The Bengals surprised the Steelers, yet again with a sweep of Pittsburgh, which is just embarrassing. It is like losing to the Raiders, twice. Doesn’t happen. Maybe we should start calling him “Medium Ben?” “Not Quite as Big Ben?” 18-12, Cincy.
Then there were a series of games that were just pointless…

Miami-Tampa Bay. 25-23, Phins.

Chicago San-Fran. 10-6, Niners.

Then again, if you watched Chicago, you did get to see the Jay Cutler interception show. It looked a lot like this.

AND THIS...

AND THIS...

OH, AND THIS...


Minnesota-Detroit (okay, I just didn’t feel like writing about Favre)27-10, Favres.

And then there was the most overhyped game of the season.

Colts-Patriots or more commonly known as Manning-Brady. And as it should this regular season Super Bowl came down to one final play….unfortunately it was a bone-head call by a coach. Patriots, up by 6 faced a fourth-and-2 from their own 28-yard line with 2 minutes, 8 seconds to play. Surely, they are going to punt. Have a little faith in the defense and hold the Colts with just 2 minutes…after all, they held them off the entire game.

Then the craziest thing happened. Belichick called his punt team off the field, who appeared just as surprised as I did. What the heck is this guy thinking? Have faith in your coach right? He lead you to 18 AND ONE, surely he knows what he is doing. Maybe he has a trick play or a plan to draw the defense offsides…

Uhhhhhh, nope. Just a regularly old pass play. Ball snapped, Brady back, ball bobbled and caught it short of the first down. Colts ball. You would have thought it was me, playing Madden on Xbox (I go for it on 4th and anything, from anywhere).
Four plays later, Manning to Wayne for an inevitable touchdown giving the Colts a 35-34 victory over the Pats.

What was Belichick thinking? Someone needs to check his fantasy team!

**NOTE: There was no spell check or editing this week. Give me a break, it was a double issue and at least I got the weeks right this time! haha.

NFL Recap: Week Seven

Before I start, I would like to take a moment of silence for the tragedy that occurred this weekend…

Yes, I am talking about the Giants-Eagles game. It was terrible. It was sad. It was tragic. And at a time like this, I would usually do what any other Giants fan would do (no, not make excuses, that’s what Eagles do)…I would turn to the Dallas Cowgirls. But I can’t, because they played the Seahawks this week, which undoubtedly means, they won (17-38, Dallas). Which leaves me with….

“Eli!!! Your team is wearing white jerseys! Throw to the white jerseys! What is wrong with you?” “Tuck? Where were you? Have too many Eagles on your fantasy team? I hope you didn’t draft yourself, because you didn’t do a damn thing!!!”



That explains why you dropped that interception!

But what about the rest of the defense? Do they know the season isn ‘t over yet? I haven’t seen them in 3 games! You can’t possibly have everyone on your fantasy team. Did you forget how to play?

I know one play you didn’t forget…running Jacobs up the middle. If it didn’t work the first 500 times, it isn’t going to work the 501st. Call another play! Any other play! Call a freakin’ flea flicker, I don’t care...but that one isn’t working!!!! Fake field goal? Just not Jacobs! 17-40, Eagles. So, how bout them Yankees?

After the G-men, I wasn’t much in the mood for football, but there were several games, I am sure that no one watched.

Good news for St. Louis. The Rams won, in the only way they possibly could…they played the Lions. With one win each, both teams are probably done for the season. Good talk guys, see ya next year!

Cleveland and Denver weren’t in the mood for football either.

After 2 straight losses the Bears needed some practice, and who better to do it against than the Browns. But any offensive effort was a waste of energy…with 5 turnovers for Cleveland, all the Bears really had to do was stand around and watch the Browns lose. In fact, the Browns were so desperate, they put Quinn back in. Yeah, that’s gonna be an improvement! Put ME in coach!!!! (6-30, Chicago).

The unbeated Broncos took a day off against the Baltimore Ravens. When asked what happened, Kyle Orton said “we really didn’t do all that much.” Really? Ya think? (7-30, Baltimore).

Brett Favre and what ever team he plays for this week, returned to Green Bay and of course, the media (who didn’t mention Favre’s loss last week) made the old man look like a hero. I can’t be the only one who hates this guy. If I lived in Green Bay, I’d be waiting by Favre’s hotel, with my foot out! But instead the lovely Packers fans voted on “tasteful” ways to Welcome Fav-ruh home!

The Cheese-heads had several good ideas.

*Play a video of all of Favre’s interceptions over the years. (My favorite)
*Make a huge waffle, in the shape of a 4. (Get it. Waffle- in ability to make a decision).
* Hang him in effigy outside Lambeau Field. ( That might not fit the mayor’s definition of “tasteful.”)

What would I have done? (Besides handed out my “Favre, throughout the Tears” post, where I highlight all the time he has cried. ) I would have let Aaron Rodgers wear the number 4.

I can see the NFL's oldest cry baby now!

They did make nice shirts though.


Tennessee over Jacksonville, 13-30. But the best part of that game was a toss up between Gus Johnson saying Chris Johnson ran “like he was being chased by the cops” on his TD run and the awkward silence that followed it. Good call, buddy!

NFL Recap: Halloween Edition (Week Seven)

I know, I have never been quite this late, but it’s Halloween and you get a special addition!

I went to the game on Sunday night in the Meadowlands. After 4 hours of tailgating, I wasn’t as upset as you would think to find out I had great seats to see the Cardinals beat the Giants, 24-17. Wondering what happened?

On the other hand, had I been sober enough to notice all this was going on, it might have been a more interesting game. Arizona safety, Antrel Rolle's, was docked $7,500 by the league this week for "unnecessarily striking a defenseless receiver," for an extremely late hit on Kevin Boss. Ahmad Bradshaw was also fined, $5,000 for hitting Cards DT Darnell Dockett in the face mask after a play late in the game. The hit came after Dockett saying something to him while lying on top of him after making the tackle. After the game, Dockett mocked Bradshaw's punch on T.O.’s favorite outlet, Twitter. "felt like a scoobey snack. Glass joe on mike tyson hit harder than U."

Docket, do I need to remind you that Bradshaw’s punch came after you laid on top of him for an extended period of time after a tackle? Does he really even need to comment?

Don’t worry, I got this guy in the parking lot afterward!



Speaking of guys on guys. Is it me, or is Brett Favre checking out this guys butt?



Oh, you didn’t know the Vikings played this week? That’s because they lost. And you know the new NFL Rules. Praise Favre for all positive plays, ignore any losses. I would like to thank Big Ben and the Steelers for putting a one in the Minnesota Favres loss column. You get first pick of my Halloween candy! 17-27, Steelers.

While the rest of the NFL gets to smack around Tampa Bay right here on American soil, the Patriots went all the way across the pond to show the English what we see here, every week…someone beating up on the Bucs. 35-7, New England.

The Raiders had mercy on all of us this week, and after 3 interceptions, pulled Jamarcus Russell out of the game. No, Oakland didn’t improve or even score after that, but at least we don’t have to watch Russell, anymore. 38-0, Jets. (This doesn’t count toward that Sanchise!)

The Colts had a week off against the Rams. What can I say about a game that ended 42-6? (There’s always next year, St. Louis? Or baseball?) But Peyton Manning, being the stellar quarterback he is (and a Manning), is a popular Halloween costume this year. Since on Halloween, you are supposed to be disguised as something that you aren’t everyday, can you guess who was Peyton Manning this year?



Jason Campbell dressed as Peyton Manning, a player with job security. Which is an excellent costume, since Peyton Manning is probably the opposite of Jason Campbell. This guy is terrible. Absolutely terrible. Some times I am watching and wondering, “how can anyone be so bad at football?” “why doesn’t someone trade this guy for Matt Schaub? Or….me?”


Campbell wasn’t the only guy in that game dressing as a Manning this year.


Donovan McNabb is going as a Super Bowl Champion! (Now that’s a disguise!!!)
27-17, Filthadelphia over Washington.


Speaking of guys who should wear a mask. Jake Delhomme should probably hide his face…behind the Classified section of the newspaper. Delhomme threw three interceptions, (AGAIN). Even though Buffalo tried to lose, Carolina wasn’t going to let that happen. 20-9, Buffalo.

And amongst the Bills, is perhaps this years scariest Halloween costume, yet. Terrell Owens is going trick-or-treating as, YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE!


Come on, could you imagine this guy with unlimited access to media? Kids everywhere will have their parents checking under their beds this year for T.O. with a microphone.

But T.O. better watch out, himself. It looks like Larry Johnson wants to give him a run for his money. With Kansas City playing like usual, L.J. took the Owens way out and decided to blame anyone, but himself. Mostly the coaching staff. Why is it their fault? Well, because according to Larry, they are gay. After Larry used negative, offensive comments and gay slurs in his public coach-bashing session, he received a 2-week suspension. Add this to Johnson’s trouble with the law and previous gay slur offenses, the Chiefs claim, Larry has played his last game for Kansas City.

I’d blame Larry and the media circus for Kansas City’s 37-7 loss to San Diego, but we all know Johnson never contributed very much and no one cares what happens in Kansas City. No excuses guy…you just suck!

…But this weekend, you can dress up and pretend that you don’t because it is Halloween!

And even Jerry Jones is going as something he isn’t every day.



Cuddly!

NFL Recap: Week Six

Remember those days when you’d stay home and play in the snow and build snowmen, go sleigh riding and then run inside to drink hot chocolate once you couldn’t feel your fingers and toes? Well, it doesn’t snow much in Tennessee and Sunday it was a “SNOW DAY!” for the Titans. In the mean time Tom Brady threw six touchdown passes. Five of those passes came in the second quarter, an NFL record for one period and six touchdown throws tied Brady's own Patriots record. When the Titans were done with their snow angels they were sent home with a score of 0-59, Patriots.



Arizona stepped it up against Seattle on Sunday, previously unable to get the ball to "go-to-man" Larry Fitzgerald, on Sunday, Fitzgerald caught 13 of 15 balls thrown his way for his first 100-yard game of the season. Add to this the Cards intimate relationship with Matt Hasselback, lying him on his back 5 times (for 5 sacks)and it explains the 27-3 Arizona win over Seattle.


It was hyped up as the game to watch. The undefeated New York Giants versus the undefeated New Orleans Saints. Eli Manning returned to his hometown of New Orleands only to watc Drew Brees, blow by his “number one” defense. Brees ended completed 23 of 30 passes for 369 yards. The Giants came into the game giving up averages of 210.6 yards and 14.2 points. The Saints had 34 points and 315 yards by halftime! With the final score being 27-48.

I have to try and defend my G-men against those that say they aren’t a worthy opponent, and say each pass was off by just a little, stupid mistakes gave Saints easy field position and I don’t believe the Saints were as great, as the Giants were poor on Sunday. But we did get spanked, leaving me to ask….where was my defense?



The Giants room mates (or stadium mates) didn’t fair any better. The Jets played the Bills in what seemed like a game they wanted to lose, but the Jet’s refused to let that happen. Trent Edwards was injured, and replaced by Buffalo with Fitzpatrick, who threw for less than 50%....but it’s okay. The Bills cause 5 passes from Mark Sanchez and even caught a field goal in OT. Looks like the best replacement QB for the Bills, was Sanchez. After the game, Sanchez took full blame, saying the loss was his fault…”yeah, ya think?” 16-13, Bills. Told you to hold off on those “Sanchise shirts!”

The Browns were just not meant to beat the Steelers. Each team had four turnovers. Yeah, you heard correctly, four each…eight total, but I guess the Steelers fumbles just came at a better time. Who knows how you win a game with four turnovers? Failed Brown’s defense, poor ball placement and a few touchdown passes.

Ben Roethlisberger threw two touchdown passes to a wide-open offense and the Steelers were granted a first down on a questionable measurement. It helps that Big Ben was 23 of 35 for 417 yards, Hines Ward made eight catches for 159 yards and a touchdown, Santonio Holmes had five for 104 and tight end Heath Miller caught his a touchdown pass of his own.

The Washington Redskins….the poor Washington Redskins. They have yet to play a single team this year, who had a one in their win column. That’s right. The Washington hasn’t played a single opponent with a win, yet they are 2-4. This week the ‘Skin handed Kansas City their first win, in a game that someone had to win, but nobody who wasn’t playing in it cared about. 14-6, Chiefs.

What could be worse than Washington? The St. Louis Rams, who have now lost 16 in a row. Come on, give these guys some credit…it isn’t easy losing that many games in a row, eventually you play a team like the Redskins, Lions or Chiefs. But not this week. This week Jacksonville finished with 492 yards and was 11 for 16 on third downs. Then how was the game so close, you ask? How else? Three Jacksonville turnovers! 20-23, Jaguars.

Minnesota beat Baltimore and of course, all we hard about was the great, undefeated Brett Favre…who I am sure single-handedly won the game by throwing passed up for himself to catch in the end zone and switching pads during commercials to defend against the Baltimore offense…what they don’t tell you, yet again…Favre was n’t good, but “just good enough.” 31-33, Favres.

Greenbay beat Detroit, but Detroit already has one win, so it really isn’t as much fun to talk about anymore. 0-26., Packers.

Philadelphia fans were all over the Giant’s getting beat by the Saints, but probably should have held off until they found out they lost to the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders scored the only touchdown of the game and the most entertaining part of the game was probably the pigeon. If you didn’t see the pigeon that wanted good seats to the game. Check out the video below. (A little advice pigeon…there isn’t much excitement in an Eagle’s game…may I suggest flying across to New Jersey?)
Video.



Cute bird, huh? Well he wasnt the only bird on the field that had no idea what he was doing, Donovan McNabb, referred to by yahoo as “not the most situationally aware fellow” was at it again. Last year we declared MCNabb the dumbest guy in the NFL when he told the world he didn’t know a game could end in a tie, but you know…Overtime isn’t for everyone. But is there any excuses for being down 10-3 with 27 seconds left in the first half, and McNabb going to the line, calling timeout after deciding that he didn't like what he saw on the Raiders' side of the ball.

You would think not. Probably a good decision…if you have any time outs left! The time out McNabb called was his forth and Philly was penalized for delay of game. So I brought an old friend who used to help me with numbers, to try and explain the number THREE to Donavon.


If you still can’t remember McNabb, just ask yourself, “How many more Super Bowl rings do the Giants have than the Eagles?” THREE!!!!

Week 5 Recap: Better late then never

Browns 6-3 over Bills. BORING! 3 field goals. Bills are 1-6 and lost to a team with 10 straight losses. And you wonder why their home games are being exported to Toronto. Don’t worry though, Alex Trebek, Shania Twain, bacon, hockey…all Canadian. (Who doesn't love Alex Trebek!!!)



Looks like Pittsburgh is (almost) back! Ben Roethlisberger had a season-high three touchdowns passes through three quarters. The Defense had seven sacks in the game, and a forced a fumble. And held off their opponent in the final minutes of the 4th to win 28-20. But the Steelers were playing the Detroit Lions! Yeah, they aren’t back…barely squeaking passed the Lions in the 4th is as good as a loss.

I am starting a movement to change Sunday to Manning Day. Eli Manning lead the Giants to a 44-7 win over Oakland. Yeah, I know it's only the Raiders, but the G-men put in their back-ups in the second quarter! If you don’t like the Giants, its okay…you can just call us “Five and Oh!” And in case you were forgetting what Peyton Manning looks like, he was on Prime Time for the 3rd time this season (its only week 5) leading the Colts 31-9 over the Titans. The Titans, a sad “ohhhhhh” and five, with Big bro Manning joining his brother in the undefeated. They make it look so easy.

Sunday also marked the return of McNabb to the arm-flapping, football experiment, currently known as, the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles defeated Tampa Bay 14-33, but who will serve me my breakfast now? IHOP has oblong AFC and NFC stuffed pancakes with icing as laces, but it is my firm belief that Donovon McNabb should carry nothing in the shape of a football. Waffle please.



How long do you have to be in the NFL to be a veteran? I know he hasn’t been around that long, but they keep referring to Tony Romo’s inability to make plays as “rookie mistakes!” Come on! The guy has been in the NFL for 6 years. Sure he hasn’t been around as long as Favre, but it is time to take the training wheels off big boy! You just suck! The Cowgirls served the Chiefs their 28th loss in 30 games, 26-20, but had to go all the way to OT, to do it. (Looks like the Cowgirls will have plenty of time to raise the tv in their new stadium…during the playoffs, when their stadium is empty!)

Speaking of the “F-word” Guess who turned FORTY! That’s right. None other then the NFL’s favorite grey-haired, overrated, won’t get off my tv, retiring, unretiring, cry-baby, Brett “where the h*ll am I going to play this season” Favre. Yup, he is 40! That means he could have fathered his Jets replacement Mark Sanchez, Chad Henne, Matt Stafford and Matt Ryan and those are only quarterbacks…that I could think of quickly. And since he’s old, we have to pretend that everyone of his wins (and every freakin play) is a big one. So I am not surprised to hear how that Vikings crushed the St. Louis Rams, leaving out that the Rams are on a 15 game losing streak. You are still old, Favre! 38-10, Favres over Rams.



I turned on the Denver- New England game and had no clue who was playing. Not only because the Broncos wore mustard-yellow uniforms and the Patriots has scary muscle guys on their white helmets, but because since when does a Broncos QB go 35-48 for 321 yards (I guess since it stopped being Jay Cutler) and Tom Brady is no…Tom Brady! Looks like Mr. 18 and 1, never returned from his injury…or honeymoon. These old Pats just aint what they used to be. Denver over New England in OT, 17-20.

Chad Henne made his debut to quiet the Mark Sanchez bandwagon. The Jets were calling the team under Mark the Jet’s “Sanchise.” I wouldn’t be too quick to make T-shirts…we all know what happened under “Broadway Brett!” Unless of course, they look like this:



The Jets had Braylon Edwards and two fake punts fooled the Dolphins. But Miami had the wildcat, and it was the real wildcat…not that scared kitten stuff the Eagles run! With 10 seconds left in the game, Phins in the Red, RAN THE BALL…to win the game. 27-31, Miami.
