One Less Johnson

It is reported by 790 The Ticket in Miami that Chad Johnson has officially changed his name to Chad Ocho Cinco. This has caused the unthinkable, an actual humorous comment in the Yahoo! blogs:
Good Gawd! He cut off his johnson!
Way to stick it to the league, Chad. I hope you don’t mind if [...]

Thoughts On Bills vs Lions

Dwayne Wright, you suck. Two hands, on the ball, wrap it up when that other team is trying to hit you. Ask Tiki Barber how much that helps a career.
Leodis McKelvin, the 45yd return you had was awesome. This and the other games show you have the skills to be a lights-out [...]

Dwayne Wright

Seriously, what the hell is that guy still doing on the Bills roster? If I were his coach/GM, I’d cut his ass right out there on the field. “Take off your jersey, Dwayne, and give me your playbook NOW.” The Bills are mostly playing mistake-free football, save him. GET OUT.

Pre-Season Gameday: Detroit Lions at Buffalo Bills

Only 2 hours till gametime thanks to it being Kids Day. I’ll be glad to watch, but I don’t expect it to look much like real football. Let’s kill the 4th preseason game!

The CBSC concluded that showing hockey fights during game highlights and updates did not promote or exploit violence.
Basically, some guy complained about a clip of “players punching each other about the [...]

InPrivate, No One Can See You Wank

This may be old news to some of you, but apparently Microsoft has put a feature in IE 8 (currently in beta) called ‘InPrivate‘. It lets you browse without saving any history, cookies, or other information. Good for security, but also for your porn habits. Theoretically speaking, of course. H/T to [...]

Thomas Vanek, Austrian Hero

NHL.com has an article up about Flyers prospect Andreas Nodl (nodle? noodle? know-dle?), and he has some very nice things to say about Thomas Vanek:
“He’s an idol in Austria,” Nodl said to NHL.com. “You want to use him and see someone from Austria that did it. He was the reason I came over [...]

Depleted Bills Beat Even More Depleted Colts

Buffalo, minus Trent Edwards, beat the Indianapolis Colts, minus Manning and Sorgi, 20 to 7 last night. The second-biggest news of the night was Langston Walker hurting his arm (x-rays negative, just a ‘bad bruise’) which fed into the biggest news from Adam Schefter that Peters may be planning to miss regular season games [...]
