Randy Moss Calls It Quits, Retires After 13 Seasons

08.02.11 Written by Raj

For 13 years, I have been an incurable football addict. It’s also no coincidence that Randy Moss’ career also began 13 years ago. The year was 1998 when the electric rookie receiver took the Vikings to a near-perfect 15-1 record, leaving me a staunch fan of both him, and the team since. Read the rest of this entry »

Your NFL Recap: Week 10

11.15.10 Written by MZ

We can champion the NFL for its parity all day long, but someone has to go to the playoffs at the end of the day. The cream will begin to rise to the top, the minute hand will tick faster towards midnight for Cinderellas & some teams will have to relish playing the spoiler & fighting for roster spots. Yet, on a week where things should begin to sort themselves out, many questions arose as opposed to answers. Read the rest of this entry »

Randy Wears Out His Welcome In Purple & Gold

11.02.10 Written by TC

When you bite the hand that feeds you–or in this case adopts you–repercussions come in flurries and they come swiftly. Just ask Rick Sanchez. In this week’s episode of The Randy Moss Fiascos: The Paperback Edition, the Minnesota Vikings have decided to not say that they’ve waived #84 but that he’s no longer with the team, via a statement from the team’s website. This strange bit of news feed came just a day after Moss announced that he would take advantage of his multiple personality disorder, only asking and answering his own questions in interviews for the remainder of the season.

Your NFL Recap: Week 8

11.01.10 Written by Patrick M.

I’m guessing Randy Moss was hoping for a better Sunday.

While the breakup with New England wasn’t necessarily acrimonious, there’s no doubt Moss wanted to prove to that his old team had given up on him too early. Moss did little to inspire Belichick’s doubters however, gathering only one catch for a measly 8 yards on the day and submitting a “please take me back” rant for the ages after the game.

Who needs Randy Moss?

As a Patriots fan, I’ll admit there were several times I missed Moss running like a gazelle like down the side line with multiple defensive back in tow. The offense, tops in the league in scoring coming into a revenge showdown, sputtered against the stout Baltimore defense for much of the day Read the rest of this entry »

Randy Moss Comes Full Circle

10.06.10 Written by J. Tinsley

Remember when Randy Moss gave his post game press conference after Week 1 in that odd looking fitted with the du-rag underneath? When Moss said he wanted to be “appreciated,” I had a hunch then that before Week 6 the receiver would be in a different uniform. Read the rest of this entry »

Sorry Brett Favre, but you deserve this.

Your NFL Wildcard Recap

01.11.10 Written by Patrick M.

The NFL playoffs are supposed to be an exposé of the best teams and players the league has to offer. Ideally this leads to classic games, complete with 4th quarter drives and heroic individual efforts. Sadly this week was more about delivering beatdowns, as the Bengals, Eagles and yes, my beloved Pats were exposed as playoff frauds. Below is the game-by-game rundown.

Bengals Vs. Jets

This was a sloppy game between two teams that aren’t very good. The Bengals offense was hindered by crushing injuries/deaths in their wide receiver corps. Amongst the walking wounded was Chad Ochocinco, out with a sore posterior from the raping delivered over three hours Jets DB by Darrelle Revis. Watching Revis was particularly annoying as a Pats fan, because he’s totally mastered Ty Law’s style, making just enough contact with the receiver downfield to disrupt routes without getting flagged. Rookie Shonn Greene was the star on offense, routinely beating Cincy’s contain with edge runs. The Jets still have no business planning Super Bowl parades, as the Bengals were a shell of their former selves and the worst playoff team. San Diego should kill the dreams of Firemen Ed and annoying Gang Greeners everywhere next week.

Cowboys Vs. Eagles

Many, including myself, were expecting the Eagles offense to awaken after laying an egg last week but Dallas shut down McNabb and company for a second straight week. Meanwhile Tony Romo put his playoff demons behind him with some help from Miles Austin and Roy Williams.

The big play though was Felix Jones 73 yard TD run, in which he simply ran past the Eagles defense. Few players in the NFL have such raw speed and his playmaking abilities should scare the shit out of other NFC fans.

Patriots Vs. Ravens

Hey Pats fans, it was a good decade for us. But what a deflating way to close it out, getting punked by Baltimore. Everyone, and I mean everyone, laid an egg for the Pats – from Randy Moss’ no show to “Pro-Bowler” Brandon Merriweather getting schooled by Ray Rice on the first play of the game on an 83 yard touchdown. And just like that the game was over. Well not really, first I had to languish through three hours of Brady two yard checkdowns and approximately 73 third and ones where Baltimore converted by flattening our front 7. The Ravens move on, although they’ll need more out of Joe Flacco to take down the Colts next week. The Pats meanwhile, have some serious questions to answer in the offseason and a long climb back to the top. How’s KG’s knee?

Cardinals Vs. Packers

At least we had one classic game. More bullets were fired than the North Hollywood shootout as both Aaron Rodgers and Kurt Warner were afforded ample time to sit in the pocket and pick their favorite targets. This game had a little bit of everything, including a ballsy onside kick call by Green Bay that helped them get back in the game. By the 4th quarter, both defenses were gassed and it was clear that whomever had the ball last would win. Which should have been Arizona, but kicker Neil Rackers shanked a 34 yard field goal with 10 seconds left. The game thus proceeded to OT, Green Bay won the toss and appeared to be in the driver’s seat. Then, one great defensive play from ‘Zona sealed the deal.

Can the Cards win another shootout in the SuperDome next week? Probably not. But you just can’t count this team out.

With the NFL season winding down, Week 16 found teams looking to sew up playoff spots.  Although the top seeds were pretty much solidified, there were enough teams with hopes of a Wild Card berth jockeying for seeding to keep things interesting throughout the extended holiday weekend round of games.

Your Week 15 NFL Recap

12.21.09 Written by Patrick M.

brandon-marshall-chris-henry-tribute-denverbroncos

Quite a bit went down in between Sundays in the NFL as ESPN actually filled its airwaves with news and highlights instead of spouting off randomness. Okay, they made time for plenty of Randy Moss “news” (I think he admitted to having sex with Tiger Woods), but between the tragic yet bizarre death of Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry and both undefeated teams playing mid-week night games, it was all NFL, all the time.

Your Week 9 NFL Recap

11.09.09 Written by Patrick M.

Before we get to the games I gotta vent first.

Screw you Rookwood Tap and, for that matter, screw you all Wrigleyville bars from the heart of the brojects on Clark and Addison. Screw your buffet with the cardboard eggs, death to your pouty waitresses (though I appreciate the fake boobs,) screw you for not having coffee and screw you for having a bathroom attendant at a sports bar. And a special fuck you for playing country music during the commercials. Could I at least get some Black Eyed Peas?

I don’t know if it was my hatred that rubbed off on the Bears or just their own mediocrity coming to the forefront, but the Monsters of the Midway got rolled by the visiting Cardinals. The Cards moved the ball at will against the beaten down Bears D with Larry Fitzgerald serving notice as to why he’s the best wide receiver in the game. He dominated whomever the Bears threw at him in single coverage and, if he wasn’t open, Kurt Warner was finding someone else. With a brutal schedule up ahead, the Bears look headed for under .500 and Lovie Smith looks like he’s on his way out. Read the rest of this entry »
