Super Thoughts
A few random thoughts on the Super Bowl…. :: This was the first football I’ve watched since week four or five of the regular season. I haven’t watched this little football in a single season since the mid-1980s, and in … Continue reading

Cartoon Violence for Men
I’m thinking a lot about football lately, in light of the recent ‘Bounty’ scandal involving the New Orleans Saints, their coaches, and their players, who engaged in a system of paid incentives to players for injuring opposing players. Saints head … Continue reading

The greatest force for evil in the sporting world, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, has apparently just discovered water slides. God help me…there’s just something a little bit endearing about this. There really, truly is. Of course, whatever it … Continue reading

Random thoughts on the NFL Draft and the Buffalo Bills’ participation thereof: :: I was terrified that the Bills were going to take Cam Newton, if he was still there when they came up with the third pick. Luckily, the … Continue reading
