Snow More Big Gains For Laurence Maroney
Laurence Maroney is a bust. Even with a 4.3 YPC average, Maroney has not impressed at all this season other than his game against the Titans and their terrible rush offense. Sir Laurence carried the ball 16 times for 123 yards against Tennessee at Foxboro in a blizzard. Maroney looks pretty decent on paper for [...]
Poll: Should the NFL Install Goal Line Cameras?
Today’s guest post written by The Jim Gaudet, an IT guy currently living in Costa Rica. You can also follow him on twitter. Is the NFL really that poor? This is ridiculous. How much money do you think it would cost the NFL to install goal line cameras? I am willing to bet it is [...]

Three Patriots Observations Headed Into the Bye Week
As the Patriots head into the bye week at 5-2, my predictions look solid. My guess was the Pats would be 5-3 at the halfway mark. The Pats ended up beating the Ravens and still think they’ll beat the Dolphins so I’ll end up off by one, but that’s a good thing. With the Pats [...]
NFL Week 7 Predictions
With an awful season record of 43-45, falling under .500 after the past two blown weeks, I’m going for it all this week in what looks to be an away team kind of week. If I don’t pull it together soon, you can just call me mush. Time to roll the dice. Kansas City +5.5 [...]
Backbreaker Looks to Dethrone Madden
Ever since EA locked up the NFL license for ten years, the video game football community has suffered. You see, the year prior Sega Sports released a ridiculously good football game and even sold it for $20. That game, NFL 2K5, remains the best football game of the year. Yes, a five year old football [...]
We Cannot Judge The Patriots On Last Week
The New England Patriots threw up an ungodly 59 points to the Titans zero last Sunday. I could hear the peanut gallery from miles away: Tom Brady’s back to his 2007 form. No one can stop us. Even Laurence Maroney is running hard and hitting the hole now. I must admit, 5 touchdown passes in [...]
Pigeon Player: The Oakland Raiders are Cheating!
This clip shows irrefutable proof that the Oakland Raiders are cheating. On this kickoff play, you can clearly see that they’re utilizing 12 players to cover the return, 11 men, and 1 pigeon. I kid you not, this pigeon is good. Photo Credit: anarchosyn / CC BY-SA 2.0

Struggling New England Patriots
Fred Taylor and Wes Welker being injured, Tom Brady still being scared and Randy Moss getting shut down on a weekly basis by the opposing #1 corner? Offensive reasons why the Patriots are 3-2. A still suspect defensive backfield, Jerod Mayo limping on and off the field and no veteran players? Defensive reasons why the [...]
POLL: Who Will Win The World Series
With baseball season potentially over for most fans here in Boston, the question arises, if not the Red Sox, who will win the 2009 World Series? Los Angeles Dodgers With Manny Ramirez as an added bat, the Dodger came out of the gate fast this season and ended the regular season with the best record [...]
Just Another Manic Monday
Let me start by saying, wait ’til next year. Jonathan Papelbon struggled a lot this season and also made the comment that the Billy Wagner signing this year was “Kind of like the whole Gagne thing” in 2007. I completely understand how the man designated to close out our games can feel threatened by someone [...]
NFL Week 5 Predictions
After a rough 7-7 week 4, I’m still struggling around that .500 mark with a 33-28 (.541) overall record this season. This week is redemption, I plan on having a big one, I hope. Baltimore -9 v. Cincinnati – Carson Palmer and the Bengals haven’t been working out too well whether I pick them or [...]
Fred Taylor's Injury Sets Maroney's Expectations
The New England Patriots have not had a great running game this season. For the past few weeks, they did start pulling it together by giving Fred Taylor more carries against the Jets, Falcons and Ravens. Taylor was averaging 4.5 YPC with 2 touchdowns while his counterpart, Laurence Maroney is averaging 2.9 YPC with no [...]
Cody Paul; Amazing Pop Warner Football Player
I found this video while searching around on Monday and saw how sick Cody Paul was. Cody Paul plays for the Los Alamitos Griffins Pop Warner football team. The video was posted in 2007 when he was 12. He is now 15 years old and I was unable to find out if he was playing [...]
NFL Week 4 Predictions
Coming into Week 4 with a 26-21 (.553) record, I’m awfully embarrassed about last week’s performance, even though I knew the games were tough to begin with. I’m making the decision to not switch any of my picks this week and we’ll see how it goes. Oakland +9 @ Houston – Houston has yet to [...]
Utica College Pioneers Running Out Of Offense
Utica College has lost three straight games after starting the 2009 season 2-0. The biggest part of the problem for Utica was being able to close out games after giving up leads and losing by three points in weeks 3 and 4 against RPI and Ithaca in the last minutes of the games. This week, [...]
Brett Favre, The Face Of The Minnesota Vikings Franchise
If I haven’t expressed enough how much I love Brett Favre, I can always say it again, I love Brett Favre. This past off-season, the ultimate quarterback took his normal stance of not taking a stance at all about whether or not he would be playing this season. In the end, Brett ended up in [...]
