Tackle Me

If you’ve been reading my blog at all in the last year, you are fairly familiar with the Green Bay Packers’ Offensive Line problems. And our porous line cost us a chance at an overtime playoff victory in Arizona this year. We had a league-leading 51 sacks last year. Fixing it has to be our [...]

Too Sexy For My Shirt?

Well, this may be good news:
Most women claim to be attracted to tall, dark and handsome men, but a new study has revealed that facial stubble and a geeky personality are their biggest secret turn-ons.
So if I’m tall, Scandinavian (read: pale, not dark) and handsome — and I have facial stubble and a (only somewhat…right??) [...]

Ode to Donovan McNabb!

I will look for any excuse to talk about football now that the season is over. And there is no better reason than this. Some guy put together a five minute “Ode to Donovan McNabb!” on YouTube.
It basically sums up all the points I’ve made to Wernick for the past ten years. The only [...]

2010-2011 NFL Season Preview

It’s been less than 36 hours since the 2009-2010 NFL Season ended and I’m already going into withdrawal. So, I have to get my fix by putting together a quick preview for next year. It’s never too early.
Sportsbook.com has futures for next year’s Championship Games and Super Bowl. That’s enough for me to put together [...]

The Official Super Bowl Preview

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I will [...]

Packer Pride

Gberger forwarded this to me because, as a Vikings fan, he likes to mock Packers fans.
The video below from The Onion is meant to make fun of Packers fans, I think…but I take pride in it. Peanut butter and jelly. Packers and beer. Some things just go perfectly together. Enjoy:
Packers Fan Announces He Will [...]

A Personal Request

BJones, The Great Wahl’s College Football Senior Writer, asked me to put together a quick commentary about last night’s Pro Bowl experiment…so here we go.
For the unfamiliar, the Pro Bowl is usually played in Hawaii the week after the Super Bowl. This year, it was played in Miami, the site of this year’s Super Bowl, [...]

Today’s Secret Word is “Serving Tray”

There are a lot of iPad jokes going around the internet. The standard issue Hitler scene that someone puts together for any rant (i.e. Brett Favre joining the Vikings), now including the iPad, can be seen here.
I prefer the much more original PeeWee Herman sketch from Funny or Die:

Pee-wee Gets An iPad! from Pee-wee [...]

Worst Vacation Ever! Seriously, Ever.

The Price is Right has certainly gone down hill over the years:

A vacation to The Mall of America in Minneapolis is one of the main prizes in the Showcase Showdown?????!!!!!! You’ve got to be f*cking kidding me. I think I’d rather spend a week in Guantanamo than say I went on vacation to The Mall [...]

Spread ‘Em – Week 19: Antipick

So, last weekend didn’t go so well…
Outside of the Packers losing ‘the most entertaining game of any sport in recent memory’ in a heartbreaking manner because we couldn’t pressure Kurt Warner, I managed to go 0-4 in my ‘Spread ‘Em’ column for Wildcard Weekend.
I’m pretty sure I said “It’s never smart to want to [...]
