So Tebowmania is pretty much over for the moment... In Denver at least. Have to admit, I didn't see this coming. Honestly though, I'm not very thrilled about this at all, because … more
The Minnesota Vikings are a paradox: Since their establishment in 1961, the Vikes have had one of the highest winning percentages in the NFL. Their 26 playoff appearances are third most in league history. … more
Lawrence Taylor perfectly summed up the difference between good football players and bad football players in his second autobiography when he wrote that being great isn't about making a lot of plays; … more
As I mentioned in my review of the Houston Texans, the city of Houston, Texas once had one of the great football teams of the AFL/AFC. Its history is linked to the Tennessee Titans, since this team has … more
In 1958, one of the 45 million people watching the all-important NFL Championship between the Colts and Giants was a very, very rich man named Lamar Hunt, who was still fairly young and wanted to find … more

Cosidering the Colts went from an elite team to almost losing every game last season it is obvious what Manning was worth to them. How could they let him go?
The prevailing wisdom in professional sports is that home field advantage is just a buzz term meant to give the visiting team mental hiccups. The Denver Broncos would beg to differ. Their home city is … more

One of the greatest quarterbacks ever, Manning constantly raised the Indianapolis Colts from a terrible team to the level of the NFL elite. I can't believe they were dumb enough to let him go and take … more

BaronSamedi3 posted a Quick Tip about Brett Favre.
March 07, 2012
He loses significant points for the texting scandal and the constant farewells that wasted everyone's time. By the time last year's football season began, I was actually thinking a strike would be useful … more
The Atlanta Falcons have been one of the hottest teams in the NFL over the last four years. Over the time, they've gone 43-21, which leads the NFC in wins and is the fifth-best record in the league, and … more
When the Cleveland Browns were created, they hired a man named Paul Brown to coach, scout, and basically run the entire operation in every possible way. Brown was the life, soul, and being of the Cleveland … more
There have actually been three different incarnations of the Baltimore Colts. Due to transaction issues, it's in fact possible to find people who would argue that the first incarnation of the Colts … more
It's tough for me to figure out how to review the Cleveland Browns. In a formal review, do I think of them the way the NFL thinks of them, as a team that existed since 1946, but was forced to suspend … more
Sports fans like myself who are bred in the city of Buffalo, New York learn quickly about heartbreak and futility. The city has two mainstream league sports teams, provided you count the NHL (it's perfectly … more
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were the expansion-mates of the Seattle Seahawks in 1976. They haven't had quite as much success, either: I don't know they're all time record, primarily because I'm too lazy … more
In 2005 the Seattle Seahawks went to the Super Bowl. They lost a poorly-officiated game to the Pittsburgh Steelers. That is all. Okay, it's actually not all. But the Seahawks are … more
If you were arguing over which team from the 1995 NFL expansion was better - the Jacksonville Jaguars or the Carolina Panthers - how would you play it out? The Jaguars are considered the more successful … more

A few years ago, the Jacksonville Jaguars caught a lot of flack when one of their players injured himself on the locker room axe. Yes, you read that right. Not a fire axe, either, but it turned out that … more

February 06, 2012
This game was a real nail-biter, even if it was a little bit sloppy at times. I don't know how there were calls on each team for too many men on the field. I think too many people are talking about Mario … more
The New York Giants and New England Patriots both surprised me. Not only in their performance last night at Super Bowl XLVI, but their overall performance coming into the post season. Neither of these … more
Would have been a fantastic show overall if not for that slut M.I.A. Still, at 53, Madonna was still entertaining and the show had some good moments. Recommend checking it out on youtube whenever you … more

February 06, 2012
I don't know what it was, but this Super Bowl was just dull to me. Glancing at the score, one would believe that the game was a nail biter, but the only suspenseful moment for me was the toss up Brady … more
Who would have thought that this game was virtually a carbon copy of the last three meetings of these two teams? Three times in a row Eli Manning led the Giants downfield for a comeback lead with two … more
This committed liberal has just become a Tea Party convert more conservative than Elmer Fudd. Yes, I’m talking about the half-time disgrace of Super Bowel XLVI featuring a panting 53-year-old who’s … more
