Hugh Johnson Project, Update 3
Urban Meyer must be thinking about how to use The eBay to stave off the surging Seminoles right about now. - Jlworld...
Hugh Johnson Project, Update 2
If Florida wins out and doesn't make the BCS game they really can't complain after scheduling back-to-back 1-AA teams to finish the regular season. - Preciousroy...
Hugh Johnson Project, Update 1
I understand the art of fire eating started with the Seminole tribe. It did not begin as entertainment, though; it was a visceral response to having Bobby Bowden as the face of the Seminole tribe each Saturday. - Tuffy Rhodes...
Colt McCoy, Drug Pusher
It's a familiar story in sports. A young man grows up in a tough neighborhood where drugs are being pushed left and right. It's a shame when a young man becomes a victim of his environment and gives in to the temptation. Like Colt McCoy here:...
The View From The Schembechler Cam
Here's some rather amazing timelapse video from the Ohio State-Michigan game last Saturday, via The Wizard Of Odds, that features a Web cam specifically trained on Ohio Stadium and clicking every minute. It begins the night before and runs through the night after....
Today's Episode Of "The Buzzsaw Has No Idea What It's Doing"
Various reports have claimed that Buzzsaw That Is The Arizona Cardinals coach Dennis Green will be fired by the team at the end of the season, a move that at this point seems so wholly obvious that it's kind of strange they're waiting until the end of the year. Hey, why wait, ya know? He's already p...
"Jeez, Ethel, That's A Penis They're Knocking Around Down There"
Just for shits and giggles, we present to you The World Famous Purdue Inflatable Penis, from last week's Purdue-Indiana game. Sometimes, we really miss college....
We <i>Thought</i> That Cook Looked A Lot Like Mike Sherman
Well, at least there's one good thing about playing for the Raiders, says Warren Sapp. When you're 2-8, no one poisons your food. Sapp used our most hallowed food-related holiday to reminisce about the time that, when he played for Tampa Bay, someone tried to take him out like a KGB spy. And he's ...
Six Quarterbacks On Thanksgiving
Though yesterday might not have featured the most thrilling triumvirate of games — two blowouts during the day and a sloppy field-goal laden mess at night — it did give us our yearly Guy To Talk About During Thanksgiving. In the past, it has been Randy Moss, Jerome Bettis, Leon Lett, every year ther...
Enjoy Thanksgiving Night Football (Maybe, Probably Not)
The slate of NFL games for Thanksgiving Day, as is often the case, aren't the most exciting, if just because we have to deal with Detroit every year. The Dallas game features the glory of Bruce Gradkowski, so that's not all too inspiring either....
The Great Big North Texas Football Family
Far be it from us to tell someone how to run their Division I-A football program, but we think as far as dysfunction goes, the North Texas Big Green take the proverbial taco....
"OHIO STATE!!!!!!"
This video, from a Fox News report from Columbus on the death of former Michigan coach Bo Schembechler, shows the inherent danger in doing any kind of live report near Ohio Stadium, pretty much at any time. Though, to be fair, we think this lady might just yell this all the time, anywhere she is, re...
The Fast And The Furious
We know that the 49ers are officially back as contenders, because one of their players was arrested on Sunday night on reckless and drunken driving charges. Just hours after the team's win over the Seattle Seahawks, wide receiver Antonio Bryant was taken into custody after his Lamborghini was seen s...
Bobby Bowden Is All About The Series Of Tubes
Few jokes have as many comedic legs as a good Old People Don't Understand The Interwebs story. They're tough to beat; old people are so DUMB!...
It Is Important To Keep Tony Banks Fed
It's important to remember your duties as the wife of an NFL quarterback. You're required to show up at charity functions, look the other way on those road trips, make sure your eye makeup is spackled on and, of course, making sure your fumbling, erratic husband is properly fed. Eventually, they'll ...
Naked Smart People!
Because nothing's better than an Ivy League streaker, here's video of a guy somehow making it onto the field of The Big Game last Saturday between Harvard and Yale....
Devoted To The Packers' Backup QB
We found it amusing that, with everyone all concerned about Brett Favre's injury last week, it turned out that he was fine ... but backup Aaron Rodgers ended up out for the season. Has to be frustrating; you're stuck behind Favre, and once you finally get in, you hurt yourself....
Giants Look Anything But Sharp And Dapper
Among the many reasons for Giants coach Tom Coughlin to feel like a bit of a doofus last night, the fact that he was wearing the standard coachwear of a blue poncho festooned with the soul of a windbreaker, while Jack Del Rio finally found a way to not look like a meathead in his rather sharp suit. ...
Hello, Jacksonville, And Welcome Back To The National Stage
After a couple weeks of rather wretched Monday Night Games, we've got a halfway decent one tonight, with the Giants, frantically trying to hold off Tony Romo and the Cowboys in the NFC East, traveling to the urban mecca that is Jacksonville to face the Jaguars....
Goodnight, Sweet Knights
Before anyone becomes too caught up in the Who Will Ohio State Play In The BCS Title Game? talk, let's take a moment to lament the end of college football's best storyline, the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, who laid an egg against Cincinnati, losing 30-11 and ending any (probably fanciful anyway) dream...
