LenDale White Hates Tecmo Bowl, America
I'm a Titans fan so I was willing to overlook the man boobs, the Hershey's Kisses on the sideline, and even the plodding 3.467 yards per carry. But then, LenDale had to go and insult Tecmo Bowl....
A Thoughtful, Critical Analysis On Jiggling Breasts And Overeating
Excuse the blatant self-promotion for a minute, but it's Friday, and it's always important to celebrate high points in one's career. That is why I am posting an article I wrote for this month's Penthouse magazine about last year's venerable Philadelphia gorge-puke-and-boobfest, "Wing Bowl."...
Thieves Boost Giants Super Bowl Rings
If you see a decidedly un-athletic-looking character parading around town with a Giants Super Bowl ring — and it's not Eli Manning — then please call your local authorities immediately. It's probably hot; part of the haul from big Attleboro jewelry heist this past weekend....
Look, Clips From The New Tecmo Bowl Game

Step Right Up To Get Your Own Bowl Game

NCAA Pants Party: Michigan State Vs. Temple
Michigan State Spartans (25-8) vs. Temple Owls (21-12) When: Thursday, 12:20 p.m. Where: Denver...
Temple Owls
1. Philly's Phinest. An afterthought at the beginning of the season and seemingly since the departure of John Chaney, second year head coach/former Penn coach Fran Dunphy has transformed the Owls into a contender more quickly than anyone could have imagined. While everyone was raving about A-10 flam...
Michael Turner Is Free To Be Mediocre
Erstwhile Chargers running back Michael Turner, best known to fantasy players as the guy you picked up in a late round in hopes that LaDainian Tomlinson would get injured (BUT NNNOOOOOO HE HAD TO WAIT FOR THE PLAYOFFS FOR THAT), got on the 6-year-deal train which seems so popular this off-season and...
B! G! Won! Somehow!
Down goes Kent State! Down goes Kent State! The 23rd ranked Golden Flashes went into Bowling Green and lost 89-83, mainly because Brian Moten and Joe Jakubowski would love to dance with your dates. If you can believe it, Bowling Green basketball has won four straight games against ranked basketball ...
The Super Bowl Commercial They Wouldn't Let You See
Can't decide if this is great or merely interesting, but my dog liked it a lot. Here's a Bud Light commercial that was supposed to have been shown during the Super Bowl, but was banned by the FCC. Found this over at BostonSportz. It's new to me, anyway....
At Pepperdine, They Call It The Three Stooges Defense
Ed had given up his dream of being a professional bowler, but old habits die hard. (Of course your caption is probably better). The World Photo Award winners are here, including this one, which immediately caught my eye attention....
There's No 'I' In 'Douchebag'
Drew over at KSK asked Johnny at Metroville to write a piece about what it means to be a Patriots fan, one week later. We decided it would be a better fit here. You decide....
We Watched The NFL Pro Bowl So You Didn't Have To, But We're Not Doing It Again
The sports world has no greater spectacle than the Pro Bowl. Therefore, we dispatched Zach Everson to write about the Pro Bowl for us. He's out in Hawaii. Jerk. Here's his final dispatch....
The Patriots Petition: Greatest Hits
Time to check in on the petition for the NFL to investigate the final 1:40 of Super Bowl XLII, as seen on Petition Online.com (and mentioned here on Saturday). Petitions on this site are usually pretty tepid, bewildering affairs: Take for example petition for the betterment of UNC football (26 signa...
The Heavy-Hearted Pro Bowl Starts Now
So, that'll be it for me today. Please enjoy the Pro Bowl festivities. Remember to pour a Pina Colada out to pay tribute to fallen soldier Sean Taylor....
Braylon Edwards Honors Sean Taylor His Own Way
Today the NFL season officially ends with the annual Pro Bowl game in Honolulu. Its a day filled with Gonzo Friday-esque wardrobes, leis, coconuts, and, in this year's, hearfelt Sean Taylor tributes. Redskins reps Chris Cooley, Ethan Albright, and Chris Samuels will all be wearing Taylor's number 21...
"Fun" In The "Sun" At The NFL Pro Bowl

So What Was Up With Those Awful Super Bowl Commercials?
Gupta has recently apologized for the ads and pulled the panda one from the airwaves, but this whole thing is probably going exactly to plan....
In Reebok's Alternate Universe, The Patriots Are 19-0
You had to figure that Reebok filmed two versions of its Perfectville Super Bowl commercial, and indeed, here it is; as reported by Larry Brown Sports. The highlight for me is the deliveryman with the "Patriots 19-0" T-shirt … possibly the only one of those still remaining in the Northern Hemisphere...
