Super Bowl Sunday means greasy, fatty, meaty, cheesy food, anything that tastes great, health be damned.  So, in preparation for the big game, I got lunch at Philly’s Best, THE place for cheesesteaks in Los Angeles. Philly’s Best imports all their critical ingredients from Philadelphia, so they are as authentic as you can find in [...]

This may shock you.
I think most NFL coaches deserve to be fired.
This may sound like a Monday morning quarterback rant on steroids, but week in and week out I am amazed by some of the mistakes they make.
I have no problem with a coach who has a losing record. That is not grounds for [...]

Damn, I am the worst prognosticator since Michele Nostradamus’ relatively unknown cousin Murray Dunnosquatus. You remember he was the guy who predicted Canada would win the Civil War and a guy named Mussolini would invent Pizza Hut.
I picked the Eagles over the Giants based on my belief Eli Manning is the most overrated quarterback [...]

What teams are really that good? What teams are really that bad? How important is home field advantage? Is the bye-week a bigger negative than a positive? Everything you though about the NFL playoffs went to the birds this past weekend (meaning the Ravens, Cardinals and Eagles)!
The Good:
Baltimore Ravens: Live by big plays, die [...]

Round 1 of the NFL playoffs is complete. Some games were close, some were… well, not so close, and perhaps even those were closer in final score than they really were on the field. So, what did you learn? Here are my musings (some serious, some slightly less so) based upon the just completed Wild [...]

Hmmm… Whether its the distractions caused by the entire Plaxico Burress shooting or the suspension of the superstar wide receiver for the rest of the season, the New York Giants definitely felt the ill-effects in today’s game against the arch-rival Eagles. The Giants, who until this game were red-hot (having won seven straight), looked absolutely [...]

Parity, thy name is the NFL.  To be sure, at 10-1 each the Tennessee Titans and New York Giants are running away with the AFC and NFC, respectively, but after those two teams…  The next 17 teams all have records of either 8-3 (4), 7-4 (7) or 6-5 (6).  How close together are the majority [...]

All three AP-poll ranked ACC teams lost today.  At least the most overrated conference in college football can take solace in the fact that one of the two Coach’s Poll ranked teams, Boston College, did win.  Can’t wait to see how the ACC is treated when the new rankings are released tomorrow.
Congratulations to Utah for [...]

The Steelers victory over the Chargers was the first ever 11-10 final score in the history of the NFL, after 12,837 games.
And you thought the Eagles-Bengals tie was odd enough.
