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 [...]

I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started:
1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead:
A thought-provoking read from Slate.com: Down With [...]

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 [...]

I don’t think I can technically say ‘Super Bowl’ in this post without Rodger Goodell coming in the middle of the night and murdering my first born, but I’ll risk it.
For the unfamiliar, my college buddy, Evan (who rides the coattails of his sister’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ fame), lives in Miami and claims [...]

Because one can never get enough football stuffed into one week, even Mental Floss is throwing together Super Bowl related brain games for us. It’s been a while since I’ve posted a brain game, but this one is fun, and doable. Enjoy.
Today’s Brain Game offers twelve anagrams of various football player positions; think tailback or [...]

My Super Bowl picks and props will come later, but for now, a quick note on two commercials to potentially look forward to this Sunday:
I) Brett Favre is apparently moving out of his comfortable shell made of Wrangler jeans and Sears TVs to pitch Hyundais.
Rumor has it that he’ll be mocking his age as the [...]

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, [...]

Devin Hester, the butt of jokes in the NFL, is now off the hook. Tommy Kelly of the Oakland Raiders has finally took his place.
Thank goodness for the jock strap…
I’m sure the NFL will get around to pulling the video soon, so here are a couple of still shots for you:
His mother must be proud. [...]

Aaron Rodgers turns 26 today. That means we’ve got him for at least another 12 years before we dump him and let him go try to win a Super Bowl for the Vikings. Let’s enjoy it while we can.
Happy Birthday, son. Get ‘er done against Baltimore on Monday Night.

Everyone deserves a second chance. Something tells me I’ll probably need a third and fourth chance, but will go with this for now.
In my preseason rankings, I argued it was inevitable that the Packers were going to win the Super Bowl. That was 37 sacks ago. That was before we played the Vikings twice. That [...]
