It was just about one year ago that SportsCracklePop decided to issue its first ever endorsement. And based almost entirely on that internet posting, Barack Obama went on to be elected President of the United States.
Well, election day is fast approaching. There are important races all over the nation which will effect the lives of millions. And so, we once again waddle our fat asses into the waters of endorsement to throw our support behind:
Manny from Modern Family as the official breakout TV character of the season.
There’s only one thing preventing a massive brawl between sports fans in New York City and Philadelphia this weekend. And that one thing is the state of New Jersey.
Ahh yes, my beloved Garden State is once again living up to its reputation as that place you drive through when going back and forth from New York City to Philadelphia. But did you know there are people who live there as well? And they will be electing a Governor on Tuesday. The incumbent Democrat is bald and widely viewed as an asshole. The challenging Republican is fat and, well, just plain wide. There is also a third candidate. He’s an Independent named Chris Daggett, and as far as I can tell, he’s the only one who’s taken a stand on one of the biggest issues facing the state this week:
Last week wasn’t a great week in college football as I had my first losing Saturday of the year. Although it was only a half a unit loss I came back with 3 big winners in the NFL (9 units). Hopefully I pick up the stride on Halloween to give me some more cash to spend on candy. (These picks are for entertainment purposes only)
Cincinnati v Syracuse 12PM
Tony Pike is likely out again, meaning the controls of the Bearcats offense is handed over to Zach Collaros. In all honesty it doesn’t matter who runs the offense (40 ppg) as they have exceptional playmakers in both the ground and the passing game. Isaiah Pead will hurt you on the ground, while Mardy Gilyard and Armon Binns beat you in the air. The ‘Cuse defense is giving up 27 ppg and has a ton of trouble stopping the pass. Mix that up with an underrated Cincy defense and you give the points and count the money.
Did you see the baseball commissioner on Letterman last night? Of course you didn’t. If you’re a baseball fan, you were probably watching the World Series at that time.
If this putz wanted to use a letterman appearance to create attention for the Fall Classic, he probably should have done it Tuesday. That way viewers could have planned accordingly. Did anyone tune into Dave last night and decide they would retroactively watch Game 1? No, because that would involve breaking the rules of physics, and baseball fans aren’t that committed.
The start of the NBA season means that a bunch of new posters will be readily available for young kids to hang on their bedroom walls. And by that I mean some people are gonna get facialized.
The first entry comes from Carmelo Anthony and he wanted to kick this year off with a bang. I do mean bang on the way he hammered home this dunk on Paul Millsap.
That was one dominating pitcher out there. Cliff Lee was controlling his speeds and commanding those corners. The man was making everything look so easy. Whether it be striking out ARod three times, th nonchalant catch of Johnny Damon’s popup, or the behind the back snare of Robinson Cano’s line drive up the middle; the Bombers had no chance.
Now the Yankees send shaky AJ Burnett to the mound against an even shakier Pedro Martinez. Pretty much guaranteed to see some runs tonight. So bet the over!
Did you see Mark Sanchez eating a hot dog on the sideline during the Jets-Raiders game on Sunday?
That’s it, trust me. Well, he got caught and he was embarrassed. And now, Sanchez has decided to make up for it by poisoning those most in need of help.
Contrary to popular belief, Brett Favre isn’t the only person in NFL history who has ever returned to his former home stadium while playing for a new team. It just seems that way.
Are you surprised by this? Would you like some empiracal evidence? Ok, I’ve got some right here.
Below is a list of non-Favre based National Football League players who will play road games against their former employers this weekend: Continue Reading
It looks like the Pittsburgh Penguins are not that stressed about having a 1 point lead atop the Atlantic Division as they decided to wear masks during practice on Monday. Marc-Andre Fleury did his best Kermit the Frog while Eric Godard took to my personal favorite Care Bear.
I would have liked to see someone dressed as Dora the Explorer.
