NFL 2013 Draft Highlights (Kidding! There weren’t any…)

Since I'm among friends, I'll be honest. Last night's draft was about as exciting as watching my dog sniff for the perfect patch of grass on which to poop. But congratulations, NFL! I watched anyway. The WHOLE damn thing. There was none of the "Houston disses Reggie Bush for Mario Williams" excitement of years past. Sure there was the dejection of Geno Smith, but I'm not such a twisted bitch that I'd take joy in his obvious heartache. (Unless of course he was a Falcons player.) I guess it's something that the number one draft pick is from a no-name school like Central Michigan. I guess.. But is was widely known that the Chiefs had their eye on offensive tackle Eric Fisher.

Why The Detroit Lions Are Already Over Jason Hason

It's hard to fill the shoes of a kicker that's been around for more than 20 years. Well, it's usually hard. But the Detroit Lions may have found the perfect answer to replace Jason Hanson, who retired last season. Check out 28-year-old Havard Rugland, a.k.a. "Kickalicious." He's a YouTube sensation and when you check out these moves, you'll see why. Rugland is a former soccer player from Norway but his new home is with the Lions. He just signed a deal with the team to compete with David Akers for the starting job. … [Read more...]

Is This Fan Better Or Worse Than You?

Minnesota Vikings v Pittsburgh Steelers

You're a season ticket holder, you've got enough paraphernalia for your team to open up an Amazon store and if your best friend got married on the same day as a Super Bowl, you would more than likely miss your best friend's wedding. And even with all that, some crazy dude in Pittsburgh has found a way to "out-fan" you by getting a tattoo of a terrible towel on his chest. That damn Steeler nation... Yep, that's a real picture. Some guy tweeted it to Steelers linebacker LaMarr Woodley. As you might imagine, Woodley didn't hesitate to share it with the rest of us loser, underachieving fans. Kinda makes you wish the Steelers get moved to L.A. one day, doesn't it? … [Read more...]

Lauren Silberman & the “Womp Womp” Heard ‘Round the World

silberman2

As Lauren Silberman took to the field on Sunday to make history as the first woman to try out as an NFL kicker, I cued up Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman" in my head. Even if she didn't make it on a team, which no one expected she would, I fully expected her to represent for women everywhere, to at least show that she deserved to be there. Sure I got a little uneasy as I watched her take 20 seconds to tee up the ball, but that didn't stop me from mentally singing for Lauren: "Anything you want done baby. I do it naturally!" And then came the kick that sent the ball about 19 measly yards, counting the roll. I shifted uneasily in my seat but I tried to attribute her weak attempt to nerves. … [Read more...]
