About To Be Clubbed?


Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach, Bill Cowher, says that someone may take a cheap shot at a Patriots player at some point.
“It’s risk and reward,” he said. “How long do you want your starters to play? You want to be careful. At some point if this continues, someone’s going to take a cheap shot. Is that worth subjecting your players to if it comes to that?

“You can say it’s playing football, but those are the decisions you have to make.”

The person that could suffer that shot is Stetson cologne poster boy, Tom Brady. I do not agree with Bill Belichick's antics of running up the score, well, not in the manner they are doing it. If they were running mostly running plays with a big lead and score that is fine. But the Brady and the Pats continually throw the ball late in the game and with the game already decided.

I would have no problem if they handed RB Laurence Maroney the ball and let him run all over the opponent with a huge lead. But throwing to Wes Welker for TDs, going for it on fourth downs in field goal range, and keeping Brady in an already decided game is ridiculous.

We get it Belichick, the Pats are good and are on a mission.

You better protect your good smelling QB (not my type of smell) before someone does a "Tanya Harding" on his knee.

Ryan Parker even has posted a song on YouTube to warn the Pats:

Penn State Fans Show Class

The following is a video of Penn State fans showing some class towards Ohio State fans. And when I say "class" I mean the exact opposite. The Ohio State fans were outnumbered 3-to-120. Turn down your speakers if you are at work, cussing in the video:



What a bunch of idiots. I am sure they would accept being pelted with beers if those Penn State fans visited the Ohio State campus. Oh well, we all know every team has a bunch of bad apples.

What a waste of beer. Rookies.

I originally planned to go to Oakland Coliseum in December with my Colts jersey on when they play the Raiders, but have decided to just wear black after hearing stories from people I know. One person was stabbed, and the other got their rental car destroyed. No thanks.

Anyway, those three guys were smart by sucking up their pride and not retaliating. They would have been destroyed by those fans.

Kudos to a comment on the YouTube about the video: "You can't spell pussy without PSU."
