The Rams have Sam Bradford in the palm of their hands, but no plan for releasing him from his cage. When is he coming out to play, and how long can the fans in St. Louis stand the indecision?
Stop complaining already! Brandon Phillips sucks. Colt McCoy shouldn’t have gotten hurt. Artest shouldn’t have hit that shot. Your bitching and moaning is giving me a headache!
Kickers always get NFL teams into trouble. They think they can find someone who can make that one extra field goal and then they get burned. Neil Rackers coming out for Jay Feely in Arizona is but one of many cautionary tales.
The Final Four is here, but I don’t want anyone to lose. Instead of making picks we’re going to talk about how everyone can win. Can Butler pull it off at home? Can Coach K make it a fourth title? Can Bob Huggins win a title for his Alma Mater? Will Tom Izzo net himself another title?
The NFL Draft is a couple months away, but after the Super Bowl everyone gets into “Draft Mode”. This “Draft Mode” leads teams to cut players, open up cap space, and start making their “needs” known. I could sit here and do a complete “Mock Draft”, but some teams require little discussion, and others “just [...]
Well, well, I had a wonderful time live-blogging the BCS National Championship Game on Twitter (yes, I have a Twitter account : genxxlgeneral) and I just had some major revelations during the game that not only have implications in college football but I think these revelations have MAJOR implications for the NFL Wildcard round this [...]
Alabama and Texas go head-to-head for the BCS National Championship on Thursday in a game that gained credibility with Boise State’s win over TCU in the Fiesta Bowl. Though this is not a reason that Bama will beat Texas it is a reason for us to take greater notice of this game. Boise State was [...]
The Allstate Sugar Bowl transpired on New Year’s Day without anything surprising happening, but I think in the blowout of Cincinnati the Gators hid a little treasure for all of us to enjoy and speculate on for months to come (until April to be precise.) Urban Meyer was coaching his last game before a leave [...]
In throwing this idea out to one of my superiors here at genxxl.com I said “And I’ve got this great idea for a column on players playing within themselves” and his response was simply “LMAO”. Honestly, I didn’t really that sounded as bad as it did when it wasn’t being said by a professional athlete [...]
Because I don’t normally go this route I think it good to make a slight change and review the NFL weekend because we had tons of things happen this weekend that simply did not meet with my expectations (not because I expect everything to go MY way, but I honestly think it I’m right most [...]
Well, the NFL flew in and out like a lark and we’re left with a ton of clinched playoff spots, some confusion, and this weird feeling about the 14-0 Colts. Let’s start with the obvious… The Colts are now 14-0 after outlasting the Jags on Thursday night. Unfortunately, most of the country didn’t see this [...]
Alright, we’re in the homestretch…3 weeks to go and TONS of teams need miracles, solid wins, losses from other teams, miracles, (to keep losing), to rest players, an easier schedule, to not be pushed so hard, to find their offense, to find their defense, to find both, to stop vicious cycles, to show us what [...]
With the College Football season on “Pause” until January what are we going to do? I mean, there’s plenty of stuff to talk about in College Football and now they’re going to make us wait until January to get another fix? What’s up with that?! Well, I’m going to talk about it anyways…so HA! We’re [...]
Who WOULD win in a fight between the Saints and Colts? I don’t mean to discount other teams that are playing very well (namely the Bengals and the Vikings) but all indications would point to a New Orleans/Indy Super Bowl that will be played outside in sunny South Florida (on my birthday no less.) Just [...]
EliticismAs the NFL continues its search for qualified NFL Hall of Fame Semi-Finalists….there are quite a few NFL head coaches who are on the final stretch in their NFL coaching positions. Eric Mangini of the Cleveland Browns, Raheem Morris of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Wade Phillips of the Dallas Cowboys are all in severe [...]
Today, Georgia fired it’s Defensive Coordinator (Willie Martinez) and 2 other defensive assistants and I have to say I’m surprised. I just went off on Monday about how UGA wasn’t going to win anything coming out of their defeat of Georgia Tech because they would bide their time with the Assistants they had instead of [...]
Ahhhh, it’s Rivalry Weekend and we can finally get to spoiling and making seasons with games that we all want to call before they’ve begun and yet they never turn out the way we thought. They just never do. I suppose you could say that Rivalry Weekend is a form of a playoff because many [...]
If you follow me on Twitter (genxxlgeneral) then thank you! You also read one of my tweets yesterday that came right after I read the following headline on the ESPNews ticker “Bills contact Bill Cowher and he declines.” The Tweet said something like “The Bills are so far beneath Bill Cowher that the 9th level [...]
The Chiefs beating the Steelers after I said “the Chiefs are worthless”. Nothing is more irritating than a pathetic and worthless team beating a perfectly legitimate team for absolutely no reason. If Matt Cassel is going to be a failure he needs to stay that way so I can keep my bearings in the NFL. [...]
As I closed my college picks last week I said “Notre Dame still sucks!” and with that proclamation I had no idea that ND would actually get worse, but they did. Now the Golden Domers, appalled over another bad loss, are considering getting rid of Weis (a.k.a. Fat Bastard) and paying him that ridiculous buyout. [...]
