Friday Free For All…..Volume 2.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 2.0

Geeks, Hoes, sketch balls and Joes….Thank God it is Friday…. That’s all I’m saying. It has been a long, crappy, bad weather week. I’m looking forward to a great Halloween weekend back home in the great state of South Carolina with friends and family. Again another great weekend of football is ahead….But as usual; the best thing about Friday is the Friday Free for ALL….Enjoy Skeezers….

Top 3Things I’m looking forward to this weekend:

1. Georgia vs. Florida- Write this down, or take a picture, because this is a statement that I doubt will ever come out of my mouth again. “I am a HUGE Georgia Bulldog Fan this weekend!” Let’s go Bulldogs. A Georgia win would be massive in the South Carolina quest for the SEC Championship game. With a loss, Florida would have 4 loses in the SEC. Georgia would improve to 4-3. South Carolina, if they don’t lay a goose egg, SHOULD improve to 4-2, with the tiebreaker over Georgia. Essentially, if Georgia wins, it is a huge help for THE GAMECOCKS.

2. Halloween- Let’s just be honest, when we were younger, Halloween was so that we could go around all collect as much candy as possible. But as an adult, Halloween means one thing, it means every girl, even the good girls, have an excused night to make the most non slutty outfit as slutty as possible. What is better than that?


3. Callie Shannon Wilson- Alright listen, I don’t usually get all mushy and emotionally, but how often does your lil sister have her first daughter. Now I don’t know when she is going to make her grand entrance, sometime this week, but either way I’m happy for Robbie and Kristen….Uncle Jason in the House……

Top 3 things that have pissed me off this week:

1. Cliff Lee- Really, you wait all this time to lead a franchise into the World Series and you collapse faster than the Cowboys Practice Facility. I guess since you pitched brilliantly against the Yankees, knowing fully you will be playing in the pinstripes next year, that you figured the hell with the rest of the season. You remind me of Kenny Powers, telling his agent he is sick of being in Texas, and to get him paid bitch. Just remember, you are about to sign with a team who’s fans spit on your wife….I’m just saying….

2. Female Football Commentators – Look, I have no problem with females in sports. I’m down with the WNBA, Title 9, and all that other jazz. Look if a female John Wall comes along and can hang with Kobe and Chris Paul, then that would be bad ass, do your thing Shorty…. But is there not anyone else on the planet we can get to do Tuesday night football commentary for the Boise State vs. whatever Louisiana High School team they played? I would have done it for free. I just cannot have a woman who clearly does not know her football tell me why she believes Boise State can hang with some of the best teams in the country. ESPN, step your game up, seriously.

3. Meathead at the gym who carries a gym bag and a gallon of water- You go to the gym for a purpose. To work out, and check out the hotties on the treadmills. But I’m going to be honest, If I have to see one more dude carrying around an enormous gym bag, rocking a gallon of water, I’m going to go lose my mind. What could you possibly need in a gym that would necessitate an entire bag? And what is wrong with the normal size water bottle? Is there a problem with refilling at the fountain? Seriously…. Tell me that doesn’t piss you off? And to make matters worse, come up to me one more time and ask me how many reps I got left? I purposely do extra reps just to be an ass when this goes down.

Youtube Clips of the week:

I’m a fan of old school wrestling from back in the early 90’s. This clip is classic. If you have ever wondered why all wrestling events require all floor chairs to be tied together now, this is why:




And Finally-

Big Game Predictions for the Weekend, if you don’t agree, tell me. I was also informed by a fellow BRO that I wasn’t Bro enough if I didn’t Pick against the spread. The spread is now added…..

#7 Missouri vs. #14 Nebraska – Nebraska is giving 7.5 at home, yea I’ll take Nebraska. Missouri is overrated.

#3 Auburn vs. Ole Miss- Sorry Ole Miss, your defense sucks more than a Dyson vacuum. I’ll take Auburn and give you the 7.

#1 Oregon vs. #24 USC- Not too sure how USC is ranked, but Oregon’s offense is sick-nasty. I’ll take Oregon and gladly give them the 6.5. Hell I’ll give them 16.5.

Georgia vs. Florida- This is a Massive game for the Gamecocks. Since the spread is only 2 points, and I’m hoping Georgia goes to Jacksonville and does work. I’ll take Georgia.

South Carolina vs. UCheat – This is a tough one for me to pick. I’m going to take Tenn. The spread is 18. South Carolina just doesn’t usually do work but 18 or more. Let’s go Cocks though…..

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.

SEC and Falcons Recap, World Series Prediction

SEC and Falcons Recap, World Series Prediction
Everyone knows the SEC is the biggest baddest conference in College Football and if you don’t like it suck on some stats:
                -The last 4 National Champions have come from the SEC (Florida, LSU, Florida, and Alabama)
                -The SEC has had the most players drafted into the NFL in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 and only twice since 1998 has the SEC not lead all conferences in players drafted.
                -8 coaches are in the top 20 of highest paid. You could argue that this doesn’t mean they are the best but you’re wrong. The BEST coaches want to coach in the BEST conference (outside of Texas, OK, and USC)
Like most of you I live for Saturdays. Nothing beats sitting around drinking some good ol fashioned American Brewhaha, armchair coaching like your Tom Landry, yelling to your wife “make me a pie woman”  and watching football.
Arkansas vs. Mississippi: I really could care less about this SEC game but I watched it since it’s either that or listen to Dike McGee over on the 4 letter network. “Hi it’s Pam Ward for the noon tilt between Purdue and Ohio State.” Pam Ward should only be doing WNBA and women’s Lacrosse games for obvious reasons. Arkansas is really pretty good. If they could ever improve their D they might make some noise. Mallett can chuck it and did so early leading to a 21-0 lead. Prisoner 245675A led a furious comeback but Ole Miss falls short 38-24.
Auburn vs. LSU: “The Tigers will win today.” Quote from my boy Verne Lundquist. Actually he’s not my boy at all and throws out these stupid little comments all game so he and Gary Danielson can play footsie with their back and forth commenting all game. Anyway, Cam Newton is in full on Beast Mode. The guy is 6’6 and weighs 250, and he’s a freaking QB. He’s clearly going to win the Heisman and he deserves it. He has ALREADY set the single season rushing record for a QB in the SEC in 8 games. That’s pretty decent. LSU is good and all but their offense is bad. How they can’t put together a good offense is beyond me. Russell Shepard if im not mistaken was a top 3 QB and they moved him to WR!?!?! Seems like a good idea. Regardless Auburn ran for like 3 miles so that’s never good when you’re trying to win a football game.  Les Miles is the luckiest bastard I know and it finally ran out on him. “Have a great Day Les”.
Georgia vs. Kentucky: I will be honest I didn’t watch all that much of this game since it was on the same time as the USC/Vandy game. Georgia basically beat the doodoo out of Kentucky like Carolina should have so I give them props on that. Georgia is slowly turning its season around and incredibly is still very much alive for the SEC east title.
Tenn vs. Alabama: “The third Saturday in October” was an absolute beat down in the 2nd half. Tennessee is pretty awful and will get beat down again next weekend at Carolina. I still can’t figure out why Alabama is still ranked where they are. They should be ranked ahead of Boise and TCU. What a crock of shit.
Vandy vs. S.Carolina: I contemplated watching Pam Ward’s “Call me Lenny DIKEstra” documentary instead of this game. My God was it boring as hell. Outside of watching Steve Spurrier throw his visor a few times this was a total waste of my time.
Miss. State vs. UAB: What a doozy here. Again, the Pam Ward DVD was calling my name but I turned it down. By the way, Miss. State is now ranked for those of you who don’t know.

The Atlanta Falcons returned home after getting drilled by the Eagles last week in Philly. This was a big game as the Falcons could feel good about themselves being 5-2 going in their bye week with a win. I will say that they came out and played the best half of football I have seen a Falcon team play in a while. The offense was unstoppable, the defense was great and everything was running smoothly. What I like most is that when Cincinnati made that frenetic comeback in the 3rd quarter the Falcons answered when they needed to. Roddy White is a baller. He doesn’t need to send T-shirts to get himself ready to open a can on the DB’s of Cincy. However a “Do Work Bro” T-shirt from Bro Nameth would have been sweet.
Quick World Series Prediction for you:
-Rangers in 6 with Cliff Lee being WS MVP going 2-0 with a 1.43 ERA
                -Josh Hamilton hits 2 dingers and Vlad Guerrero  hits over .300

Happy Crappy Monday | Bro Nameth Sports

Happy Crappy Monday

Happy Crappy Monday Morning……

Another fun weekend in the books, and another crappy Monday Morning is here. After a much talked about and anticipated trip to Nashville to see Eason-Welch and the Gamecocks do work, I ended up not being able to make the trip. I’m still pretty pissed about it, not just because I couldn’t go, but also because I have my two tickets I paid for sitting on my desk. So this morning is an exceptionally Crappy Monday Morning…. But the good news is I’ve got a hot and fresh top 10 for your pleasure…. Enjoy.

1. BCS Getting Things Right again….

The second week of the BCS standings are out, and I’m happy to see the results. Auburn has leapfrogged everyone is now the New #1. Start your whining TCU and Boise State. Why did Auburn get the nod for #1? It’s because they play tough, actual opponents each and every week. Teams in the SEC do not have the luxury of playing High Schools and Cupcakes each and every week. I think “The Nature Boy” Rick Flair said it best, To Be the Man, you got to Beat the Man. You don’t get rewarded for beating no name colleges, put some teams on your schedule then I’ll listen to your arguments. Auburn racked up 440 yards of rushing offense against LSU Saturday, the most ever allowed by LSU. By the way, LSU has the number one rushing defense in the SEC, like Rick said, to be the best you got to beat the best.

2. When I’m right, I’m right…..

If you read my Friday morning weekend preview, you had a chance to check out my picks for the weekend. If you didn’t read it, you mean nothing to me. My partner in crime Chris told me I was nuts that Missouri would knock off Oklahoma. I hate to brag but Chris, that happened. I ended up going 6-1 for the weekend, only losing the Georgia game, which I really only picked because of my hatred for UGA and their fan base of which 90% not only didn’t go to UGA, but didn’t go to college at all. One more game I had picked and it’s tonight Giants vs. Cowgirls game.
Giants > Cowgirls.

3. Second Chances, everyone deserves them….

2010, the Year of the Redo. Over the weekend, I realized that some people are making good out of their second or third chances. Mike Williams, the former #1 Draft Choice of the Lions, is starting to look like a Good WR in Seattle. Once he was drafted in the NFL, he got fat, lazy, and out of shape. He was arguably one of the biggest bust ever. But the kid is doing work with his second chance, catching 11 balls yesterday for 88 yards and a touchdown. Adam “Pacman” Jones, is doing the same in Cincinnati. The kid sat out of football for a year, was arrested like 21 times, and could have cared less about his football career. But Sunday he returns a kickoff 82 yards, and has a fumble recovery for a touchdown. And MV7, Michael Vick, we have all witnessed his resurrection up in Philly.


4. The Bigger they are, the Harder they fall….

So I was wrong about one thing this weekend. Take notes because it doesn’t happen to o often. But Brock Lesnar got his ass handed to him Saturday night. I didn’t get to see it live, but the replay shows it wasn’t even close. The guy didn’t even last the entire first round. Oh well, it was still def. entertaining.

5. McDonalds….

Let me tell you something that really pisses me off. You have a late night meal at the Golden Arches, after a night out with friends, and all you want is the item that is advertised on every window of the entire restaurant. You go to order your large Sweet Tea, and they say they don’t have any made. Now correct me if I’m wrong, but how hard is it to Brew Sweet Tea? If your ass is too lazy to make it, then don’t advertise it. That’s all I’m saying.

6. The NHL Season Has Kicked OFF!

Who Cares, Next Topic.

7. Roddy White is a Stud….

Roddy White proved yesterday that he is one of the top 3 receivers in the league. The guy makes a comment this week, saying he doesn’t even know the names of the DB’s for the Bengals, but he is going to go out there and do work all over them Sunday. Well he did just that, to the tune of 11 receptions, 201 yards, and 2 Touchdowns. The kid makes it look so easy. I’m still trying to figure out how USC let him leave the state of South Carolina after High School and go to UAB? Slide over Andre Johnson, you’re going to have to make room at the top.

8. The Quack Attack…..

So I give the Pac-10 a lot of crap, because honestly I think they play soft football and they have some pretty bad teams out west. But I watched the Oregon Game Thursday night, and they are pretty damn good. Their offense is a machine. After they run a play, they sprint to the new line of scrimmage and get set in their base formation. They then look over to the sideline, where a backup QB is holding up a poster with four random pictures. I mean random, one had a 4 leaf clover, Lee Corso, a grizzly bear, and a rainbow. Once the board is shown, the ball is snapped, with 20 seconds left on the play clock. The Oregon head coach said that if the ball is snapped with less than 15 seconds left on the clock, he is upset. Their offense smoked the ball up and down the field. I’m going to be honest, I would love to see their offense go up against a nasty SEC defense. If they play Auburn in the BCS title game, I’m predicting a final score of 55-49, with over 1000 yards combined.


9. World Series Pick…….

Since the Braves didn’t have a chance in hell of winning a playoff series, because Bobby Cox thinks that winning the regular season every year is more important, I’m glad to see that the Giants and Rangers are going to do Battle. If I have to make a pick, I’m pulling for the Rangers. The team has never been to the “ship” before, and I’m down for the new guy winning it all. Josh Hamilton=Stud. By the way, he is a free agent; I’d love to see that guy set up shop in Turner Field for the next 5 or 6 years. Doubtful, but I can hope right. The series goes 6 games, and the Rangers bring home the trophy.

10. Playing to the Competition…

I’m still trying to figure this one out. Why is it that when the Gamecocks play the number one team in the nation, they look like one of the most impressive teams in the nation. But when we play worst team in the SEC, we look like one of the worst teams in the SEC? South Carolina has been like this as long as I can remember. Look at this season, we play a pretty good Georgia, and beat up on Georgia. We go to Auburn at night, and play a damn good team, and we hung in there until the end. Then we come home and play Furman, and look like a division 2 school. One time can we just rise up and go on the road and play like a good football team. Yes I know we won, and yes I know we didn’t have Lattimore, but seriously, we should have been able to go to Nashville and win easily….


There you go boys and girls; there is your Top Ten for the week. Check back in Friday Morning for the Friday Free For All. I got to give a special shout out to Meghan McClamb and Schmee…. Thanks for the support ladies.
