Ocho Cinco Gets The Point

I've had multiple people ask me if I'm going to write about how boring the NFL Pro-Bowl is.

No, I'm not.

What's the point? We all know it's awful. The players don't want to play in it. Unlike the NBA or baseball or even hockey to an extent, you can't play football without collisions. These guys have spent the last five or six months slamming into each other. The last thing they want is to do it again. That's why so many players beg out of playing in this sham of an All-Star game.

There's no Peyton Manning, no Drew Brees, Bryant McKinney got kicked off the team because he didn't bother to show up at practice. Does this sound like the ultimate NFL honor? It's a joke.

So how do you make it more interesting? You go to the one man that knows how to make a game more fun.

I beg you NFL, to hire Chad Ocho Cinco as a public relations guy. Unlike the stiff white suits that populate the NFL offices, Ocho Cinco actually knows how to have some fun. Instead of coming up with an excuse as many veterans do, ole 85 is happily down in Miami and he has an idea:

Let him kick.

He wants to kickoff, he wants to kick a field goal? Hell, let him! He's on to something!

No one wants to watch guys play a game they don't care about, that's what the pre-season is for. So let guys do whatever they want on that field.

Let Ray Lewis play running back so he can be on the other end of those collisions. Vince Young wants to try tight end? Sure! Chirs Johnson can be a speed rusher from linebacker. Let linemen play the skill positions. Let the defense play offense and vice versa. Turn the thing into a circus. It will be more entertaining.

And mic the guys up when they're on the sideline. Let them talk to each other. Run the mics through the stadium loudspeaker if you want. If a guy doesn't want to do it, then he doesn't have to do it. If a guy curses, he's out. No more mic. Just take a risk.

It's almost like turning the Pro-Bowl into a WWE event except it's real and these guy can really play. I want to hear them, I want to see them trying new things. Listen to Ocho Cinco, he wants to bring change to America. Or at least the NFL.

What up bitches?

It's time for the Playoff Football PantsCast!

Ridiculous behavior has no bounds!

L.T. Having Fun (And Tempting Fate)

So you may have already seen this cute little dance video made by LaDanian Tomlinson. I found it cute and I heard very little uproar about it across the NFL nation.

What bothers me is the thought of T.O. or Randy Moss doing this video. Would the thing just skate by or would it by the talk of radio and television sports types everywhere?

Just watch the video and imagine Tony Romo dancing around on there:

Not Even The Fuhrer Would Have Enjoyed Leno

Hitler is dead, but I really think this is an airtight case about how the NBC late night fiasco would have played out in Nazi Germany.

I'm Big Time Now

I've gone national!

I have no idea what that means, but you can find me at a different site now.

Fantasy Football PantsCast December 22

Happy Holidays and Fantasy Playoffs to you!

In this PantsCast Joe Keyes and I remember why we're thankful for the NFL even when our fantasy squads bomb, plus we have all of the weekly awards and a sob story of the week.

As a bonus, you get to hear my husky, cold induced voice.

Oh Come All Ye Fantasy Faithful and listen to the PantsCast.

There Are Just Too Many NFL Teams That Play Like Ass

Are you forced to follow a dolorous team that leaves you feeling as fulfilled as Tony Siragusa after a Weight Watchers meal?

Well, apparently NFL players are feeling similar and are choosing passive aggressive ways to display their dissatisfaction.

First, as you may recall from an earlier post, Devin Hester was none too pleased with the play of his Chicago Bears and chose to let the world know:
Now we see Tommy Kelly of the Oakland Raiders letting everyone know what he thinks of the silver and black.





Don't give me that "it was an accident" crap either. Two players on awful teams showing the world their backside? That is a trend, folks. I'd be careful if I were the Raiders. They might get a, ahem, taste of their own medicine since they play the Browns next week. Ewwwwww, Browns!

Kill me.
