Peter King Must Be Stopped
Seriously. Read this if you can suffer through it.
He is completely in love with Reggie Bush. I don't mean man-crush, I mean full fledged sweaty backseat after getting a cup of coffee around the corner after work L-O-V-E.
I'm not even going to get into the circular logic of his argument against Colston and for Bush (which is even more fun to pick apart when you factor in Colston was a 7th round pick and Bush was taken #2 overall), but how about where he (like other writers) credits Bush for winning the game on Sunday with a punt return for his first, first touchdown of the season.
The final score was 24-21 Saints. If it was 7-6 I could see crediting Bush with the win, but last time I checked those first 17 points come into play don't they? Shouldn't John Carney get credit for kicking the FG that actually seperated the teams TD totals? No love for McAllister who scored the first TD of the game for the Saints, and pounded out 123 yards rushing? Isn't football about controlling the clock and running the ball? Apparently not.
Once again let me thank you on behalf of all of us who missed it the first 40 times you mentioned it, you work for NBC. WE GET IT. A network that carries one Division 1 CFB game a week, and up until 5 weeks ago didn't have Pro Football on its airwaves for 6 years. Hell, NBC had to sign Collinsworth who wasn't good enough to be in the FOX booth anymore with Buck and Aikman, pull Bob Costas away from the Olympics and having parts in movies such as Pootie Tang, dust off Sterling Sharpe who was replaced at ESPN by the fountain of knowledge Mike Ditka (if you care what happened in 1958...did they even have the forward pass then coach?), and trade the rights to a cartoon to get a broadcast crew.
The best part in all of this of course is that for years King would finish his MMQB column with the topic header "Who I like tonight, and I don't mean Al Michaels". Don't you guys both work for the peacock now? That'll be fun at the company Xmas party.

If The Yankees Fire Joe Torre
If they do, then I'm done being a Yankees fan until Steinbrenner is cold and in the ground. It's that simple. I mean it. I won't cheer for the Mets, but I'll pay more attention to preseason football in July and play a hell of a lot more golf with my friends that are so deep in the closet they are finding sweaters than worry about the trading deadline and if Peter Gammons's cell phone is going to ring.
Somehow all is forgotten that they won the AL East for what, the 9th straight year? (and in 96' when they didn't win the division they were the first team to win the World Series via the wildcard)
Kenny Rogers throws the game of his LIFE and somehow Torre is to blame? No, really. The Gambler's career post-season ERA was 8.85 going into the 2006 ALDS.
The Yanks lose their corner outfielders for most of the season, pay Pavano 8 million to strain his buttocks, lie about breaking his ribs, and not pitch an a SINGLE INNING in the majors this season, and somehow you want to blame #6?
How about blaming #'s 41, 45 and 34?
Throw in 11 and 13 while you are at it.
Who traded for these guys again? Was it Joe, or was it Curious George and Cashman?
Gary instead of Vlad, great move. Passing up on Beltran, even better. Signing Johnny Damon, doesn't Jim Abbott have a better arm than him? If it wasn't for Cano and Melky, the team could get an AARP discount at Travel Lodge.
I hope Torre wins AL manager of the year and Girardi wins NL, that way the lunacy of MLB can be seen in full cracked out like Lindsay Lohan mode when they are both unemployed in the off-season.
Ask fans of any team out there if they'd take 4 WS wins in 10 years, I'm sure they would. The Indians fans I know sure as hell would.
And don't give me that crap about payroll --> World Series or bust.
The Dodgers, Mets, Cubs, Angels and Both Soxen have spent their fair share for the last 6 years, and they've won 3 WS between them in the last 10 years.
I grew up with the Yankees sucking complete you know what. Mike Pagliarulo hit .230-something for 1985, 86 and 87, and he started every damn game at 3rd base! Steve Balboni, enough said. I'll take the guy with 4 rings over the guy with 1 (won in what many still think was a mafia fix of a WS) anyday.

Funniest Thing I've Read Today
Ok so I'm an Oakland Raiders fan (yeah, go ahead and say it, I'll wait) but this is still the best thing I've read in awhile.
Ok, I take it back
Mandel is worse. He has a blog with comment moderation turned on. Go TEAM CORPORATE!
Way to make it look like all the opinions on the crap that spouts forth from your keyboard are evenly and fairly represented there Stewie!
I feel as if I'm watching Fox News.
Perhaps I shouldn't be too hard on old Stewie, after all he looks like a balding chipmunk puffed up from a failing liver, and he does work for the same people that present us with the gem that is this blog.
Is it me or does she look like a space alien...and not just any space alien, but one that should be on E!'s "When Plastic Surgeries Go Wrong".
(I can't believe she can get close enough to the keyboard to type)

Peter King is the worst sports writer out there
There, I said it. He's worse than Stewart Mandel. I know, I know, but bear with me.
Every week on CNNSI.com he puts up a 5 page load of crap about the NFL weekend that was, and the Monday night game that will be.* Half of it usually follows the new ESPN/ABC model of shameless self-crosspromotion (is that a word?) where he pimps his appearances on NBC, HBO and the like.
We get it, you are on TV a lot. So is Dubya, doesn't mean I like what he has to say either.
Half of his articles have to do with his daughter's college bake sale, or what person did something stupid on the road while he was on the way to Starbucks. I get it, you drink a lot of coffee and apparently don't get a corporate card to pay for it, thus you have to plug the chain of coffee kiosks that have taken over America...as if we had no idea they existed without you telling us about a triple grande hazel WHATEVER that you chugged down on your way home to watch some show you Tivo'd and are imploring us all to watch.
Peter King is easily the Brent Musberger of journalism.
HAHA that is so FUNNY that you made a PUN! "TROUBLE'S BREWING" HAHA! NO NO, I GET IT, I DO, YOU LOVE COFFEE! AND T.O. IS CAUSING A STIR IN THE LOCKER ROOM.
I'm so damn witty that I might just take his job!
He goes on the list**.
* Great job picking the Ravens 20-16, I'm pretty sure PK just looked up the scoring averages of both teams and put it out there on the interwebs. (actual score Denver 13, Baltimore 3)
** Musberger will always be number one on my list***.
*** The "list" refers to the people that I will settle up with should I ever get diagnosed with a terminal illness.

My blog is better than yours
Best mascot ever?
Take that Burger King!
Seriously, we need to bring this Brutus back...
Once Again The AP Poll Shows How Cool It is
Glad to see that people in Indy get to vote like this
1 Ohio St.
2 Florida
3 Southern Cal
4 Texas
5 Michigan
6 West Virginia
7 Louisville
8 Auburn
9 Notre Dame
10 Tennessee
Seriously, buy a TV. Look at your own sports page.
I'm talking to you, Steve Warden of the Fort Wayne Journal. Is that even a newspaper? Or that thing that sits in the bin at grocery stores next to the free apartment guides?
Fort Wayne? How does that market get a vote?

The AP Poll is threatening me
Explain to me how Ohio State only received 62 of 65 first place votes in this week's AP CFB poll?
Auburn showed today why they deserved the 1 they got... Awww-burn
