That Just Happened — Hitler A Cowboys Fan?

Remember in grade school…when you, um, used to bet your friends the most ridiculous things? Well, Bodog.com has made them a reality. If you can think of a Super Bowl-related bet, you can put your money where your mouth is. You can even place a wager on what song Tom Petty will perform to end his halftime show at the Super Bowl.

Sam McGuffie

This just in. Sam McGuffie is a douchebag. But he’s still a bad ass runningback. If you have no idea who Sam McGuffie is, watch this video. I’m sure he’s not a douche. I’m just pissed that he doesn’t plan on staying in Texas. Hey, Sam. I hear the Texas State Bobcats are looking for some talent.

Scientists in Britain have created a helmet that when worn at least 10 minutes a day could reverse symptoms such as memory loss and anxiety within four weeks. Unfortunately, the Alzheimer’s Helmet does not fix bad teeth.

So Hitler was a Cowboys fan…

Don’t let all this talk of subprime meltdown get you down about the market. ForeclosureRadar.com claims to be “the first service to track every California foreclosure auction each and every day.” Good thing the “Big Five” will be paying out record bonuses. Maybe they can flip some foreclosed cribs in their spare time. How’s that for economic stimulus?

The NFL Show: Episode 14

Brady’s Bunch
During the 1st QTR, I was hoping Najeh Davenport’s TD dance would include him dropping a deuce in the end zone. But then we get a flea flicker from Moss back to Brady, then downtown to native-to-San Antonio wide receiver, Jabbar Gaffney. Shut up, Anthony Smith.

While most would think its a waste of time to talk $#!t to a “no name” DB, I was happy to see Brady defend his team by getting in the face of and having a chat with Steelers DB, Anthony Smith. Even after Brady was approached by a second Steeler player, he didn’t stop. The only problem I had with Brady was that he came out for the post-game press conference all primped and made up sporting a Gissele-insipred GQ coat. Collar popped. Well…his team IS undefeated. I suppose he can wear whatever he wants as long as he shuts the ‘72 Dolphins up.

Jason and the Cowboys
Screw the Golden Fleece, Jason Witten and his band of Cowboys have their sights set on the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Witten caught a 16-yard touchdown pass to edge the Detroit Lions, 28-27. Good thing…he coughed up the ball on the 1 yard line earlier in the 4th QTR. Speaking of beating the Patriots, is there anyone else that thinks the Cowboys are playing sloppy football…and still winning? Not to overlook the efforts of the Colts, but look out Pats. The Cowboys are a perfect game away from beatin’ that @$$.

A Different Turf
This ain’t Hillman College. This is the NFL. With 1:22 left in the game, Jamal “Big Jada” Lewis used his Ram Man motion to break like 50 tackles on his way to a 31-yard score to put the nail on the Jets’ coffin. The playoffs are in the Browns’ future. They certainly have the personnel to do it. But with an improved Bills team ahead, they’ll need to step up.

Falcons Quest
Today, Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months by Federal judge Henry E. Hudson. With good behavior, he could be back on the streets by October 2009. Until then, the Falcons still have to sell tickets and win football games. So far, the Falcons have tried to replace Vick with Joey “Haha” Harrington and Byron “Keenan” Leftwich with no avail (I think we could have predicted that outcome). So what now? Coach Petrino calls on a former pupil — 30-year-old insurance salesman Chris Redman. His resume includes more than just sales experience. While at the University of Louisville…under Coach Petrino…he finished as the NCAA Division I-A career leader in passing completions (1,031) and attempts (1,679). His 12,541 career passing yards ranked third behind BYU’s Ty Detmer (15,031 yards) and Louisiana Tech’s Tim Rattay (12,746). Redman threw 84 touchdown passes and 51 interceptions and still holds virtually every single game, single season, and career passing record at the University of Louisville (Wikipedia.org). Monday night, Redman turned in a respectable performance going 23-for-40 and 298 yards…2 TDs and 1 pick. Um. Leave him in there. That’s better than Harrington and Leftwich combined this season (not really).

That’s So Ravens
Speaking of quarterback quandaries, Kyle Boller is something like 20-21 as a starter. Stick a fork in Steve McNair. Why not give Troy Smith a try? He’s not short on talent. What do they have to lose?
