Saints Game Recap
Nov 25th

In the first half, there were a few questionable calls and non-calls that went New Orleans’ way. Something stunk about a lot of those (the Drew Brees intentional grounding non-call, for example) and had the game stayed close, I would have made a big deal about them, but we simply got spanked in the second [...]
Uh… What Was I Saying?
Nov 24th
First, let me say that, I realize we’ve been inactive as of late. My “real job” over in the “real world” has taken precedence to this space in recent weeks, due to various reasons. I will try not to let it happen again.
And so… on with it!
I was going to go into a long diatribe [...]
Driver’s Father Beaten By Police, Left For Dead?
Nov 19th
Strange story coming out of Houston today. Donald Driver has been excused from practice the next couple days to deal with a personal issue. News reports are leaking out now and it looks like the Driver family is in the middle of a major situation. Read about it HERE.
Our thoughts are with Donald and [...]
Packers ‘Bearly’ Sneak by Chicago 37-3
Nov 17th
Coming off two heartbreakingly close losses in a row, Green Bay desperately needed a win on sunday to keep their division championship hopes alive. Chicago gave the Pack everything they had for the first two minutes or so, but in the end, Green Bay emerged from the hard fought game as the victors, 37-3.
But in [...]
Vikings vs. Packers: Who Sucked and Who Didn’t (guess which list is longer…)
Nov 10th
Every week the Packers are starting to look more and more like a team that simply won’t live up to the expectations. Yesterday, the Packers lost yet another close game to an inferior opponent.
The Packers should be better than this. Maybe it’s time to accept that they just aren’t very good and likely won’t be [...]
Get to Know a Viking: Ragnar
Nov 7th
My unwavering hatred of all things Minnesota Vikings is well documented. I have made no secret of the fact that the old Purple and Gold makes my taint hurt. From legendary douchebags of yesteryear (Cris Carter and John Randle) to the douchebags of today (Jared Allen and Pat Williams) I have hated them all.
I don’t often see [...]
Here’s One For The Idiot Files
Nov 5th
And who does it go to? My main man, Ted Thompson.
Word over at the NFL Network is that the much talked about Aaron Rodgers contract extension didn’t get done by the close of the NFL day on Monday.
So what, you say?
Well, when I questioned the timing of the contract extension last week – you know, [...]
Titans Game Observations, Notes
Nov 4th
This was one of the more disappointing losses of the year, in part because the Packers actually played well for most of the game. The lines held their own on both sides of the ball against the normally dominant Tennessee lines.
In the end, we were overwhelmed when it counted most. When we had opportunities to put points [...]
