Tinsley’s Holy Trinity consists of Cam’ron Giles, LeBron James and America’s Team, the Dallas Cowboys. Seeking to pay homage to one of his deities, he ended up having his faith in one of the others tested. See, Tins decided to spend his NYE in Harlem* and wound up at local restaurant to watch the Cowboys-Giants game on Sunday night. Read the rest of this entry »

Rex Ryan’s brash talking and bold Super Bowl predictions finally came to a fitting end Sunday at the hands of division rival Miami as the Jets folded 19-17 to the Dolphins. The epic collapse began with three key interceptions courtesy of the increasingly inept Mark Sanchez and ultimately ended in a late game Santonio Holmes benching after an in-huddle altercation.

The other day, someone asked me a simple, yet profound question.

“Why the hell do you support Tony Romo so much?” Read the rest of this entry »

Here we are on the eve of Thanksgiving and the push for playoff positioning is full steam ahead. And you know what? The Cincinnati Bengals continue to assume the identity of a polished football team. Read the rest of this entry »

2011 appears to be the NFL’s answer to the MLB steroid era. The lockout, years of pro-passing rule changes and obvious obliviousness to steroid use (I’m looking at you Peyton Hills) have offenses putting up NFL Blitz numbers from coast to coast. The marquee matchup in week two featured two of the Air Attack Era’s offensive juggernauts in the Patriots and Chargers. Read the rest of this entry »

Only Jimmel Kimmel, the king of lackadaisical late-night, would think to pull something this hysterically guapo off after the Oscars. As leader of the secret society which determines which chin lift gets what magazine cover, the Handsome Men’s Club consists of more stars than Orion’s Belt. Lenny Kravitz keeps the minutes on his Korg keyboard while Matthew McConaughey and Sting stir up commotion amongst the committee. Read the rest of this entry »

So much for drama.  Save for the Chargers and Jets, the games this weekend were almost over before they started.  The teams who were supposed to win took care of business for the most part and one underdog is still in the hunt.  Setting up for what should be a couple of good match-ups next week, take one last look at how those teams got there.

Welp, we’re back again trying our hand at picking this week’s games.  Looking to redeem ourselves over our paltry showings last go around, save for Jason who was omitted on accident, we put the mp3′s down long enough to expound on the pigskin.  Maybe this week we’ll even get some picks right.  Y’all know the drill:  Read, call us out for our naïveté & discuss below.

“Time to separate the platinum from the white gold/Right from the door/The real from the fake, Ready rock from the raw…” – Jay-Z

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.

I’m glad the NFL has 32 teams. I appreciate that second-rate cities like Jacksonville and Indianapolis get to enjoy the pride of having their own professional franchise in America’s game. But there are definite downsides. One is that some of the 32 teams are going teams are going to be really, really bad. A painful waste of fans dollars and hours. Read the rest of this entry »
