Al Davis communicates with his players via Carrier Pigeon

This just in: Al Davis has found a new, top secret, stealth mode of on field communication: carrier pigeons. Screw hand signals.  Forget about those hi-tech audio systems quarterbacks have in their helmets.  It’s all about the pigeon. And based on the outcome of the game, we can safely say that the pigeon is mightier […]

Sunday Surprises: What ever happened to parity?

Sunday Surprises: What ever happened to parity?

Watching this past weekend’s games brought up an issue that’s been irking us like an ass rash: why are so many teams unwatchable? Just a few years ago, almost every game was a hard fought contest…or at least the teams scored touchdowns, unlike the 6–3 Cleveland-Buffalo debacle that we witnessed yesterday afternoon. Sure, every year […]

A Fullback is Born

When we were kids, plenty of us dreamt about playing in the NFL: throwing the perfect spiral as a Super Bowl QB, or making the game winning catch as a star Wide Receiver. Some of the fat kids even thought they could pull in the big bucks playing Left Tackle. But who in his right […]

Monday Morning Meltdown: Braylon vs. Bron-Bron

Monday Morning Meltdown: Braylon vs. Bron-Bron

After losing this weekend to their cross-state rivals, the Cleveland Browns are 0–4 and undoubtedly one of the worst teams in football. Whoever plays quarterback continues to turn the ball over faster than Shaun Rogers can take down a buffet line, and if it weren’t for Josh Cribbs, members of the Dawg Pound would likely […]

Romosexual of the Week: Mark Sanchez

Romosexual of the Week: Mark Sanchez

As Intern Jeff has told us many times, there’s more than one kind of “Romosexual.”  Of course, the most common definition can be found on Urban Dictionary: someone who “loves Romo more than life itself” and “would suck his dick if that meant that Dallas would win the Super Bowl.”  And as we showed last week, a […]

Vick’s Voodoo Doll

Despite the fact that the NFL season is only three weeks old, the Philadelphia Eagles have already seen their share of drama. First, they signed PETA’s worst enemy, dramatically changing their offense. Then, Donovan forgot to eat his chunky soup, cracking his ribs in the opening game. And before the dust had a chance to […]

Romosexual of the Week: Michael Strahan

Romosexual of the Week: Michael Strahan

Too obvious?  Perhaps.  But the gap-toothed wonder known as Michael Strahan has truly earned the title of Romosexual of the Week. For the record, we didn’t watch the crappy new sitcom live; after lubing up Intern Jeff with a few tequilas this past Friday, we stuffed him into a closet here at the office, duct […]

The Cherry on Top

The Cherry on Top

Some things are so stupid, they’re supposed to be funny. Take Dumb & Dumber, in which two morons take idiocy to a whole new level. They sell a dead bird to a blind kid. They have aspirations to open a pet store called “I Got Worms.” And in one of the finest cinematic moments of our […]

Romosexual of the week: Tony Romo

The GSF’s newest addition, intern Jeff, just so happens to be from the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. But don’t worry, he’s not a douchebag.  Just a keen observer, some might even say connoisseur, of douchebaggery. Case in point: Jeff just told us that some Cowboys fans proudly proclaim themselves to be “Romosexuals.”  After kicking him in […]

Monday Morning Meltdown: Washington Redskins

It’s been rough going for the ‘Skins lately.  Sure, they squeaked out a win last week, but it was against a pathetic St. Louis team, and they left the field to a chorus of boos.  You’d think things could only get better for Daniel Snyder’s overpaid underachievers…but you’d be wrong. First, TE Chris Cooley called […]

Sunday Surprise: This Lion on Lion Violence has gotta stop

It’s no secret that times are tough in Detroit these days.  From the 19 game losing streak to the fact that the unemployment rate is three times as high as the national average, it ain’t easy living in the Motor City. But seriously, Detroit, has it really come to this?  Shouldn’t Lions fans be banding […]

“To QB…or not to QB?” by Dr. Gerard Leavenworth

“To QB…or not to QB?” by Dr. Gerard Leavenworth

It’s no secret that I’ve been in a terrible mood all day. But it’s not just the fact that the Eagles lost to a team that didn’t even make the playoffs last year. It’s the QB situation…and unless Andy Reid figures it out, we’re in for a long season. I’m the type of gyno who […]

A Favrian Decision

Believe it or not, there was once a time when Brett Favre was thought to be a simple man.  In the offseason, he’d quietly go about his business, hanging out on the family farm, shooting birds and shucking corn.  But those were the good ol’ days, when August wasn’t “Favre Month” on ESPN and the […]

Csonka’s Zen: Do it for Pruitt, Patrick Swayze Remembered and Something Sweeter than Stokley

Csonka’s Zen: Do it for Pruitt, Patrick Swayze Remembered and Something Sweeter than Stokley

The best thing about being a Browns fan is…this t-shirt? (Cleveland Frowns) Patrick Swayze, you will be remembered by sports fans everywhere. (Lester’s Legends) Chillin’ with Chillar — the best non-Stokley play of the weekend. (F Juice) The best Stokley play/Gus Johnson call of the weekend. (Tirico Suave) Excuses, excuses, excuses, NFL-style. (Five Tool Tool) […]

Sunday Surprise: Sanchez is Dirtier than expected

Every NFL season is full of surprises, and while the result may have been predictable this past weekend, one game did stand out: the Jets’ thrashing of the Texans, who many think are on the verge of a breakout season. But while a 1–0 start is always big for a team coming off a late […]

JB and Mr. Menefee

JB and Mr. Menefee

African-Americans have taken over nearly every American sport, and thanks to athletes like Cullen Jones and Shani Davis, sports that have predominantly been played by white-folk are becoming integrated. If you asked a black man in 1957 if he thought Olympic gold medals would go to fellow brothers in swimming and speedskating, you’d have been […]

Nap Time

While the Favre-Vick show has been dominating the airwaves for weeks, most players have been quietly preparing for the NFL season. And whether it’s conditioning drills or strength training, two-a-days are never easy on an athlete’s body. But fortunately for both the players and the fans, the fun begins tomorrow night when the NFL season […]

Mangini’s Mangina

By now most football fans have heard how Belichick’s disciple, Eric Mangini, has made a strategic decision not to announce his starting Quarterback for this Sunday’s matchup vs. the Vikings. Mr. Mangini, you are a true competitor and a master of deception. How in the world are the Vikings going to prepare for Derek Anderson and […]

“Tequila Sunrise” by Darnell Goodman

“Tequila Sunrise” by Darnell Goodman

This past weekend, I was disappointed to hear the news that Shawne Merriman, star linebacker for the San Diego Chargers, had been brought up on domestic violence charges. Yet another brother who’s bringing down the image of the NFL, and one more brother who needs JC in his life. But when I heard that his […]

“The Spread Offense” by Darnell Goodman

“The Spread Offense” by Darnell Goodman

A few weeks ago, I got to wondering: how the hell did I catch so many touchdowns in my prime? I mean, seventeen TD receptions the year I got the Heisman? It was downright ridiculous. So I pulled out some of the old game tape and started poring over it, becoming what JC would call […]
