Are you ready for some football?

Here we go Brownies, here we go!

Ah yes, the good ol' days of the Cleveland Browns being able to look down on the Steelers and the Bengals. It hasn't happened often but a likely 4-12 record has never looked so powerful before.

The Steelers have a quarterback for the future in Kordell (one good year as a sub) Stewart and the Bengals got Akili (one good year for the Ducks) Smith. The Bengals will just draft the next Big Daddy Wilkinson if they get the pick and the Steelers will find another Mark Malone. Trust me, after years as a Browns fan, reduce your expectations and crank up the gallows humor because the mediocrity triangle of Cleveland-Pittsburgh-Cincinnati looks like it will linger for the foreseeable future.

My secret

I can't believe this didn't cum up before. My friends and I were discussing why girls like football just this past weekend. Who wouldn't want to watch cute sweaty guys in tights pants; duh! Also I think sports the only way guys can touch each other on the butt w/o getting beat up. Just admit it guys-- sometimes you need a hug from your buddy too.
We are Cowboy fans in hell-49er territory! AAHHHH! Although I do secretly want to make their quaterback cut my lawn on hot day! Purely sexual-I'm soo weak don't tell my fellow 'Boy fans.

I live in Vermont, but I like the Cowboys. Go figure. They are pretty awful this year, though. If they only win one game I hope it is against the Redskins.

Well Skibum, you got your wish.
Hey Spunky, the REDSKINS SUCK!!!!
That quarterback should be shot! My god, I'm surprised he didn't just walk down that field and hand the ball to the Cowboys.

I had seats right in front the the owner's box, talk about one unhappy camper! Nice stadium though.

Sorry Mr. Kronkite, but that's the way it was.

Hey Lasher, I saw the Steelers had a new QB taking snaps in practice last week. Al Gore. I was hoping they could get Jesus Christ. Next week Al will be saying he invented the forward pass.

Kitten Eyes, excellent commentary on the Skins-Boys game. Actually, I only watched the first five minutes and the last five minutes. I had no idea where Dennis Miller's head was at in his opening statement about Deon, Dante's Inferno and the afterlife. But you were right on about the ending. Doh! Not as bad as the Steeler though.

After the next six weeks I think Sparky just might be crying in his pee over his Skins. Not only do they have the Giants tonite, they got Jacksonville, Tennessee and Baltimore. I predict Daniel Snyder will be very sorry he didn't spend that 100M on performance enhancing drugs instead of Deon and the rest of those prima donnas.

OK, here's a few of my picks for today's games ...

Giants skin Skins - Jeff George plays and gets smashed.

Tennessee VS Pittsburgh - who cares?

Jacksonville VS Indianapolis - Indy please.

Jets VS Bucs - this should be a great game. Jets but barely.

I know I am a traitor, but I am an all out Carolina Panthers fan!!!!!! Love them.
I hate the Redskins even if I do live in the DC area. They are such crybabies, and whenever something goes wrong they like to blame everyone but themselves. I laughed when they lost because they have been so hyped and everyone expects them to go all the way. The only reason why the beat the Panther in the season opener was that Fluke call. All I can say to all Redskins fans on their recent losses. IN YOUR FACE!!!!!!

I'm with you! Back up a page and you'll see I love the Panthers too.

Oh oh, Sparky, it's a conspiracy.

Hey Lasher, I saw the Steelers had a new QB taking snaps in practice last week. Al Gore. I was hoping they could get Jesus Christ. Next week Al will be saying he invented the forward pass.

Surprisingly enough, Al Gore was fairly humble while he was in town THIS TIME (Try living in a large city in a battle ground state - We've had Al Gore, George Dubbayah and Pat Buchanan coming in and outta here all the damn time - talk about getting fucked!), and only claimed that he had invented artificial turf and pierogies.

However, rumor has it that at lunch he was taken to the Primanti Brother's restaurant on the Southside, and after finding his sandwich had fries and cole slaw on it, claimed that his Daddy had made the exact same sandwiches every sunday while he was growing up on that damn pig farm in Tennessee!!

Needless to say, the largely Democrat and formerly unionized masses of Allegheny County were outraged by such a statement - what exactly would a Southern Pig Farmer, actually living in a hotel in Washington, DC know about making a sandwich like that? And almost immediately Gore's lead in the tracking polls disappeared (Btw, I think on a previous trip to Pittsburgh, Gore claimed to have invented the phrase "Margin of Error"... I'm not entirely sure about that one, but that's what I heard).

Btw, the Pitt Panthers are 4-0, having beat such powerhouses as Bowling Green, Kent, and Rutgers. Woo.

Penn St... well....

And the Steelers... Ummmm... Seems like they're continuing their march toward those key games against the Cincinnati Bungles... I can hardly wait.
