« Previous Entries Next Entries »The NHL Knows the Way to My Heart
Tuesday, September 25th, 2007I honestly did not know this, but apparently NHL’s preseason has started. Saying “hockey sucks … the fights are the only good part” is so played out, and really, it’s not true. In reality, hockey is awesome, it just sucks on TV, and the fights happen to be the best part. And this preseason game [...]
Agent Steinz Infiltrates the DTC Tailgate
Tuesday, September 25th, 2007I used to think the Dead Tree Crew — the most notorious group of Skins supporters at FedEx — was a black eye to followers of Burgundy and Gold everywhere. Just some wannabe Manassas gangsters who make us all look silly. But as I’ve learned more about the DTC, I’ve grown to love them. I [...]
Devin Hester Wishes to Be Noticed
Monday, September 24th, 2007Yes, that is apparently the ride of the greatest kick returner since those two years when Dante Hall was somehow good. I gots to say, that whip is hot, son. You knows he must’ve paid a grip for that Louis Vitton interior and paint job. Not to mention those men’s capri jorts, or shants, if [...]
Train Wreck That Is MNF Rolls on
Monday, September 24th, 2007As long as Tony Kornheiser is on Monday Night Football, the program will continue to be nearly unwatchable. Discussion of how horrible and off the mark ESPN is happens to be what Awful Announcing is for, but what occurred at halftime tonight is really MNF in a nutshell. They attempt, and fail miserably, to add [...]
Skins Lose: Gameday Sights and Sounds
Monday, September 24th, 2007Until the kickoff of the third quarter, yesterday was an absolutely great day. Three of the party people from the Eagles game and myself arrived at FedEx around 12:30 for the 4:15 game. We didn’t have a parking pass, so we paid $20 to park about a half-mile from the stadium. We had a cooler [...]
Skins Lose: Landry Lays Wood on Plax
Monday, September 24th, 2007A week ago we had an epic seven-part “Skins Win” series of posts, so it’s only fair that after Washington managed to blow it against the Giants yesterday we do some “Skins Lose” thangs.
So as we try with all our might to find some good amongst so much bad, may I present this hit by [...]
Introducing the FanHouse Minute
Monday, September 24th, 2007I’d love to take credit for this on my way out the door, but it’s all due to new FanHouse man-in-charge John Clifford Ness. The emerging FanHouse TV has been more his baby than mine, and FanHouse Minute is the latest newborn.
It’s a 60-second rundown of the top five headlines of the day, delivered every [...]
David Carr Wears Dainty White Gloves
Sunday, September 23rd, 2007David Carr saw his first real action for Carolina in today’s win at Atlanta. More importantly, the man who was once Houston’s franchise QB sported the same pretty white gloves he tried out this preseason.
“Zoolander,” as Texans fans call him, says the gloves help him grip the ball. Perhaps, but they also make him look [...]
Skins Lose: Misery in Sleeveless Mesh
Sunday, September 23rd, 2007I think the Giants are still converting on third down.
It’s hard to believe that Washington lost despite leading 17-3 at the half and forcing three turnovers, or one-fourth of their 2006 total. It’s also hard to believe that Shockey came out in a ponytail, which he lost as the game wore on; something I’m sure [...]
Philadelphia’s Douchebaggery Continues To Be Off the Charts
Sunday, September 23rd, 2007You probably didn’t notice that I haven’t been around the past few days. I was out of town attempting to end my unemployment (more on this later, maybe). I got back yesterday afternoon and went straight to RFK to watch the Nats lose to the Phillies for the sole purpose of reminding Philly fans who [...]
