K-Daddy brings us his NFL preview. Better late than never.

Cold As Ice: Shooting To Thrill

In any pro sports league, you’ve got debates brewing over rule changes and inconsistencies. In baseball, the American League’s adoption of the designated hitter rule in 1973 is STILL hotly contested by purists. The NFL changed its kickoff rule this season to increase the number of touchbacks (in the name of player safety), but it also angered players who in previous years served solely as kick returners because they were essentially losing their jobs. In the NHL, a perennial argument […]

10 Yard Fight – Arian Foster Is Alive And Well

Fantasy Football seems to rule the world. Okay, maybe not the world. But I don’t know too many football fans who aren’t in some sort of Fantasy Football league. The NFL has to be chuckling because while it’s not the biggest reason that the NFL is the premier sports league in the United States, it’s definitely partially responsible. Gamblers are thinking, “Hey, what about us?” Players seem to act differently when it comes to Fantasy Football. Maurice Jones-Drew challenges all […]

10 Yard Fight – Uncle Dave

Before I get to the nuts and bolts of yesterday’s games, I wanted to lead with something that’s not necessarily about football, but I will tie it into football at the end. This week’s 10 Yard Fight is dedicated to my Uncle Dave. For the last seven Septembers, my rather large family has gathered together at my Uncle Dave’s favorite beach to celebrate his birthday. On the drive home from the beach yesterday, JJ, my youngest son asked me if […]

10 Yard Fight – Shootout!

I think Thursday’s opening night shootout between the Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints affirmed three things for us: Because of the lockout, veteran teams that didn’t change head coaches and didn’t have a lot of player turnover are going to do very well this season. The Packers don’t have a Super Bowl hangover and could have one of the best offensive years in recent memory. Red zone offense is where it’s at. The Packers were 4-4 in red […]

10 Yard Fight – Are You Ready For Some Football?

The 2011 NFL season is nearly upon us. I do that Sweet Chin Muzak baseball column on this great website, so I figured that a NFL column was a natural progression. The column will be published on Sunday night/Monday morning and will discuss ten of the ongoings of the Sunday games. There will also be a heavy Fantasy Football slant to the column since I love me some Fantasy Football almost as much as Terrell “I love me some me” Owens loves himself. […]

Blerd Radio Episode 8: Me, Grandpaw Jimmy & The Mysterious Celebrity Porno Renter

For Blerd Radio Episode 8, I turned to Jimmy , who hosts his own show entitled “Funny Like Car Accident Funny”. Over a wide ranging hour, we combined to bellyache about pertinent issues including: -Christine O’Donnell’s love of witchcraft. -Our need for a publicist to get us on “Real Time with Bill Maher” -What happens when Derek Jeter’s contract runs out at the end of this season (you think perhaps us talking about the Yanks was a bad luck charm?) -Whatever […]

Hope I Die Before I…Hey, Wait a Sec…

Super Bowl 44 was exciting enough-at least until Manning got intercepted halfway through the 4th quarter. Although I put money on Indianapolis to win, I’m kinda glad it went to New Orleans. When the best things to come out of your city in the past twenty years are Lil Wayne and Harry Connick Jr., you deserve all that you get. Man, but did you check out that halftime show? Never mind the fact that Queen Latifah’s performance of “America the […]
