Friday Free For All…..Volume 13.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 13.0

By: J-Shannon

It’s Friday, and it is Super Bowl weekend! Are you excited, can you feel it deep down in the pit of your stomach? I’m already looking forward to Sunday. I know I’m looking forward to Sunday. There will be plenty of Good Ol Fashioned American Brew HAHA on ice, Chips and Dip, and chicken wings. I’m taking the Steelers, strictly because they have been there A LOT, and know how to handle the pressure. But to hold you over until Sunday, here is a fresh edition of the Friday Free for All…..

--The “I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW” Stories from this Week:

1.    High School Recruits signed on the dotted lines….

Some of you Bro Nameth supporters may be sports fans, but if you aren’t a college football junkie like I am, allow me to catch you up on what went down on National Signing Day. It looks like the Seminoles are on their way back to domination. Florida State has a small signing class (13) but a star studded class. The biggest shockers to me for the Day were the Clemson Tigers and the Georgia Bulldogs. Clemson is losing Da’Quan Bowers on defense, but they certainly are reloading. Clemson brought in the #1 ILB in the country, Tony Steward, and #2 OLB in the country, Stephone Anthony. Also added were two 5 star players on offense, RB Mike Bellamy, and WR Sammy Watkins. Keep in mind the #1 overall player in the country Jadeveon Clowney still has Clemson on his short list of 3.

Mark Richt may not have had the year on the field that he was hoping for, but he has worked his ass off in the offseason. Richt has also brought in a star studded class for the Bulldogs. Georgia struck recruiting gold, landing 5 Star RB Isaiah Crowell, and 5 Star DE Ray Drew. I got to give the Bulldogs some credit, and I’m a little nervous to see how the Bulldogs will develop over the next couple of seasons. I will say this, if Richt doesn’t produce immediately after the class he just recruited, he will get sent packing…..

Here is how I ranked the Recruiting Classes:

1.     Florida State

2.     Alabama

3.     Texas

4.     Georgia

5.     LSU

6.     USC

7.     Clemson

8.     Oregon

9.     Ohio State

Keep in Mind, IF, and that’s a big IF, Clowney signs with Clemson, I will move them up to the number 4 class in the country.

--Things that Have Pissed Me off This Week:

1.     People who are pissed that Ben Roethlisberger had a few Beers…….

So Big Ben flew into Dallas Tuesday to prepare for the ‘Ship. It turns out Wednesday night he took a couple of his linemen out to a piano bar, and ran up a tab of drinks to the tune of $800. Some people are pissed that he went out and had drinks during the week he is preparing for the big game. I’ll just say it like this, the man is an adult. He old enough to make his own decisions, go where he wants, drink what he wants, stay out as late as he wants. I think if Head Coach Mike Tomlin was really concerned about his QB at night, he would put a curfew on the guy.

I think it needs to be pointed out that Peter King, who is the best NFL writer in the business, was at Steelers practice today. King tweeted after practice that Big Ben is “scalding hot”, and he “looked terrific.” King also pointed out that at one point, Ben threw 4 touchdowns in a row in the Red Zone.

I don’t think Coach Tomlin is worried at all about what his QB is doing at night…..

2. Gabe Wright, Who the Hell do you think you are??

So Auburn has yet again another solid recruiting class. This year they landed 4 Star recruit Gabe Wright. Gabe makes his announcement on national television, and throws on a “customized” Auburn hat. Gabe’s hat reads Nick Who? This is a reference to the future Number 1 pick Nick Fairley, who plays the same position as incoming Wright. Now Gabe may be a good player, and yea he is a 4 star recruit, but who the hell does this guy think he is? So you have the POTENTIAL to be a good player. As of right now, you couldn’t hold Fairley’s Jock. Fairley wasn’t a 4 star recruit. He was actually a 2 star, who went to JUCO, and worked his way up to start for Auburn. The guy worked his ass off to get to where he is today. Before you start getting cocky, how about step foot on a college campus and actually do something. Your explanation was shitty too, it made about as much sense as a virgin porn star…….

Here is the clip of the Doucher himself…..

--Youtube Clips of the Week:

I’m going to be honest, I thought Lil Weezy was a Saints fan from New Orleans, but he kills it here for Green Bay. Take a good listen, and listen to the lyrics…..

This one is dedicated to all of us white boys who always wanted to dunk but know there isn’t a chance in hell of it actually happening….. Shout out to Tom Pritchard of Indiana for proving some white boys can jump….

This is your lucky day as we got videos all over the place...Shoutout to Bro Zimmerman for this vid...

This last clip has got to be the fastest goalie in the history of soccer. This dude might be able to give Usain Bolt a "run" for his money...It looks fake but is 100% real. This is easily the fastest white dude alive...Shoutout to Bro Switzer for the vid....

-The “LIVIN’ THE DREAM” Legend of the Week:

This week’s Livin’ the Dream legend is none other than Bro Paterno. The guy has the life right now. He is the Head football coach for Penn State. But he is at the point in his career where his coordinators do all the work, and he just sits back and watches the action. Bro Paterno is livin’ the dream……

--Shout-Outs for the Week:

        *   Schmee- It wasn't too long ago your ambitions were to be a pirate. You have turned in your
             eye patch for a family. Wanted to give you a shoutout on your Birthday. HAPPY BDAY!       

*    Matt Watts- I would almost rather get herpes than have to admit he is right, but he did call me out on a name I left off of Monday’s NFL Underrated List. Jon Kitna did step in for Tony Bromo, and did a solid job. The guy never gets any love.

*    Cleveland Cavaliers- You still suck ass, 23 in a row, not too shabby….

*    Andy Pettitte- Congrats on a solid career, even though you were caught juicing. At least you admitted you juiced like a man, and moved on…..

*    J’Woww- She was slammin in her leather outfit last night……

*    Extra Mustard- If you haven’t clicked on extra mustard on cnnsi.com, you are missing out. Does anyone know what the G on the Green Bay Packers Helmet Stands for?? No it’s not Green Bay, Click here for the Answer….

*     Coach Mike Smith- He got his new extension, well deserved….

*     The Newest Bro Nameth Supporters…..  Eddie Carta, Wifey Crooks, Uncle Bro Tomassi, and Jeff Fetters…..

      One last sports worthy note. We have run across this facebook page that is spreading the word on steroid use. You should take a look and help spread the word. Hey sports fans, do you play steroid-free?

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.

NASCAR’s Feminine Side

NASCAR’s Feminine Side

 By: Corey Rose

Don’t worry. The following article is not about the empowerment or increased prevalence of women within the racing world. In fact, it’s more of the opposite so if you’re a women’s lib major, you best be finding a new article to read. It’s not that we are trying to demean women here or anything. Danica and the Sprint girls do enough of that for the rest of us. We just want to highlight some of the finer points of the female role in NASCAR from yesterday and today.

Back in the purest of days for NASCAR, being Miss Winston Cup was the equivalent of being chosen as Miss America without the in-depth questions that are inevitably answered with, “world peace”. It was a job for a young lady who didn’t mind a pair of short shorts, high heels, and a little track grime in her perm; the woman who was willing to trade Rodeo Drive for Gasoline Alley. Put on the pearly white smile, land a kiss on the driver’s cheek for a picture, and enjoy the party. What did Miss Winston Cup do with the rest of her race weekend you might ask? She delivered cigarettes to all of the drivers, crew chiefs, and mechanics and she had their brand of choice memorized. That is a fine woman, right there.

If you know what things are like today, you’re probably asking yourself “what the hell happened?” Yeah, so are we and every other NASCAR personality. No more cigs, no more kisses, and no more fun. When you watch a race these days, Miss Sprint Cup is making a b-line for the exit as soon as the beverage du jour starts flying in victory lane. Miss Winston Cup was there to lap the Budweiser out of Dale Sr.’s mustache. Miss Sprint Cup, Monica Palumbo, calls the term trophy girl absolutely offensive.  Former Miss Winston Cup Patti Petty may have coined the term trophy wife when she married Kyle Petty after meeting him for the first time in Victory Lane. She laid a big fat one on Kyle after a hard fought win not because she wore Greek letters and was eight beers deep, but because it was her honor and duty. That’s ‘Merican. On the flip side, Miss Sprint Cup filed a complaint with NASCAR when Tony Stewart kissed her ON THE CHEEK after winning the Brickyard 400 in 2007. 

While Danica and Miss Sprint Cup continue to bring the sport and women everywhere down, there is one group of females that bring it week in and week out: the wives. From Kyle Busch’s Lyla Garrity lookalike to Juan Pablo Montoya’s south of the border sizzler to DeLana Harvick’s infamous firesuit, these women are hotter than a set of Goodyear’s on a Bristol Saturday night. Not only do they know how to look good on the starting grid, these women know racing. They don’t just hang out in the right southern bars waiting for a big name to walk in. They’ve got cred. DeLana Harvick spent her childhood at the track with her dad, Paul Linville, who raced in what is now the Nationwide series until 1995. Needless to say, she wasn’t wearing a jumper and hocking cookies.

The sad thing is that while these women could give the top crew chief in the game a run for his money, Danica Patrick shows us every time she shows up to a NASCAR event that she doesn’t belong.  She’s whiney, she doesn’t know stock car racing from an allen wrench, and she enunciates. She just doesn’t fit. Period.  Thanks to GoDaddy.com and the ad agency that managed to make antifreeze sexual, she gets more face time than most Chase contenders. At the same time, the driver’s wives are out on fundraising tours for organizations like Victory Junction and Speediatrics yet receive very little recognition. Lucky for us and thanks to her lack of success, it doesn’t look like Danica will be making any giant steps for womankind in racing.

Super Bowl Picks: Line Taken from USA Today

For these picks you get 6 Points. You MUST place at least 1 point on both choices. You may put points on a parlay of the two for +300 odds. Ex. 2 Points on GB -2.5, 2 points on the over and 2 points on a parlay of the 2. If GB wins by 3 and the score is 45 or higher you would win 10 points. You do not have to parlay if you do not want to but you MUST place at least 1 point on both the spread and the total. You can choose to not allocate all 6 points but that would just be dumb.

6 Points: Use them Wisely (Allocate however you would like)

GB (-2.5) vs. Pitssburgh......Pittsburgh +2.5 (4 Points)
Over/Under 44.5......Over 44.5 (1 Point)                   Parlay of the 2 (1 Point)

1 Point Each:

Coin toss is heads or tails?      HEADS
First score by Pittsburgh or GB?      PITTSBURGH
First play of the game is a run or pass?      PASS
Will there be a FG made over 43 yards?      YES
Aaron Rodgers will throw over 1.5 TD's?      NO

BONUS POINTS: ONLY IF YOU GET THEM RIGHT (2 Points Each)

MVP: Big Ben
Most Tackles (Both Teams): Charles Woodson

Happy Crappy Monday Morning……Volume 14.0

Happy Crappy Monday Morning……Volume 14.0

By: J-Shannon



Good Morning Haters and Fans, and Happy Crappy Monday Morning to you all. My weekend was an eventful one to say the least, although I did absolutely nothing I had planned. Originally, I was scheduled to pick up the girlfriend from the airport early Friday morning, and we were going to have a Bro Nameth night at the Hawks vs. Knicks game. Well, the girlfriend came down with the flu big time, so I had to do what I had to do and go check on her this weekend and make sure she was doing ok. But all in all, I still had a good weekend, and got some much needed rest and relaxation. I also got an opportunity to kick back and watch a lot of sports over the weekend.

So here it is another solid edition of the Happy Crappy Monday…. Enjoy.

1. A Preview of the Big Game on Sunday….

Another football season is in the books, and it looks like it is down to one last football game of the year. This year’s Super Bowl matchup puts the Green Bay Packers against the Pittsburgh Steelers. There are so many different angles I like in this game. First off, you have two of the up and coming young Quarterbacks in the league preparing to square off against each other. I personally like Rodgers over Big Ben, however it is hard to bet against a guy like Big Ben who is 10-2 in the playoffs. I also like the coaching matchup. I’m willing to go on record and make this statement: “I think when it is all said and done, Mike Tomlin will go down as one of the best coaches ever to Coach in the NFL.”  I know that is a bold statement, but the guy just flat out understands football, and knows how to win when it matters. You want my opinion? I don’t really care if you do personally; you’re going to get what I’m thinking. I think this game is low scoring, with a large turnover being the difference in the game. As good as Aaron Rodgers is, I give the edge to the Steelers and Big Ben……

2. NHL All Star Game, I Gave it a Chance…..

Look, I tried. I really did. I liked the concept of picking sides with captains. I love when they do their annual winter classic (although picking the first day of the year and competing with a full day of college football is idiotic). So Sunday afternoon, before the Pro Bowl, I decided to lay on the couch and give the NHL All Star game a chance and see what type of action it was bringing to the table. Well, it was one of the most boring events I have ever had to put myself through. There was absolutely no checking, absolutely no defense, and overall no action. Look, I understand no one wants to get hurt, and I understand it is suppose to be high scoring and fun, but you have to keep it somewhat interesting. I’m going to think of the NHL All Star game like an embarrassing One-Night Stand with an ugly chick: NEVER AGAIN…..

3.  Calling All Strippers, Calling All Strippers…..

So we already know the Super Bowl is this coming weekend. We also know that along with the Super Bowl, there is expected to be an additional 170,000 people travel to Dallas for the event. Well it turns out that causes a problem for some local establishments in the area. There is an OPEN-CALL online calling for any and all Strippers to come fly in and work Dallas for the weekend. How many dancing spots are open? 10,000. Don’t worry, you read that right; they are requesting an ADDITIONAL 10,000 Strippers on top of the 20,000 that are already employed in Dallas. You are trying to tell me the economy is down? Let’s just say the average lap dance cost $10. If each dancer just sold a minimum of 3 per night over a two night weekend, it results in 1.8 MILLION DOLLARS in lap dances. We aren’t even considering Cover Charges, Beer, Tips, Shots, and Backstage dances. DAMN, I’m in the wrong business……..

4. Herschel Walker= Not Human….

Herschel Walker is not human. The man is 48 years old, has absolutely no fat on his body anywhere, and says he is in the best shape of his life. The guy is a freak of nature actually. At 48, he was actually clocked at still running a 4.45 40 yard dash. That is impressive. But what’s more impressive is the fact that he is 2-0 in MMA fights, after beating the piss out of some no name guy this weekend. Now I know the guy he fought was softer than a roll of Charmin extra Soft, but you still got to give it to him.

5. Simply Put, This guy is an Idiot….

No description is really needed; this guy is a joke……

6.  Photo of the Week:

This is when you know you are a true Sports fan, starting the kids off right from the beginning.

7. Congrats to Dimitroff and Coach Smith

My inside sources over in flowery branch let me in on a little secret about 24 hours before Jay Glazer broke it yesterday at the Pro Bowl, but it looks like Owner Arthur Blank is going to work on a lengthy extension to Coach Smith and GM Thomas Dimitroff’s contract extension. I don’t know the specifics on numbers, but it is up there. And why shouldn’t it be? The two have made nothing but the right moves since the beginning, and have put together three winning seasons in a row. Congrats to both guys…..

8. How Shitty are the Cavs, Seriously….

The Cleveland Cavaliers suck. I mean they are one pathetic basketball team. I think it is a little funny actually. The Cavs are now a pathetic 8-39, and have lost 20 in a row. And you Cleveland fans were upset that Lebron wasn’t hustling in the playoffs? You may never see the playoffs again. This team has a chance to go down as one of the worst teams in the history of professional basketball.

9.“One-Liners” of the week…….

CBS- Way to have some moral Standards. CBS still refuses to fire Charlie Sheen from Two and a Half Men, even though he has been seen with a briefcase of cocaine, on a drunken binge for 36 hours, slept with 6 porn stars, and checked himself into rehab…. I need a job like that…..

Marvin Williams- You got more balls than I thought you did kid. I was impressed to see you throw a hay-maker Friday night vs. the Knicks…..

Outdoor Tickets- Yes, there are outdoor tickets being sold for the Super Bowl. Tickets OUTDOORS are going for $500 each. Talk about dumbasses…..

Shaun White- The kid is a stud. Won another Gold metal during the X-games this weekend…..

Kobe- He Dropped 41 Last night, but still lost. Somebody else on the team step up….

Kevin Durrant- “Chris Bosh thinks he can act all tough because he is now on a good team. There are a lot of fake tough guys in the NBA, and he is one of them…” –I LOVE IT-

10. THE TOP 10 in the TOP 10….

You know how we do the Top 10 list. Here is the Top 10 this week, dedicated to the unappreciated athlete.

THE TOP 10 MUST UNDERRATED NFL PLAYERS IN 2010…..

10. Brandon Flowers – DB- KC: Flowers is a hell of a cover corner, but gets no love. Kansas City is slowing but surely putting together a tough DB group with Flowers and rookie Eric Berry.

9. Kroy Biermann- DE- Atlanta: Not only is he doing Kim from the Real Housewives of Atlanta, but he is also doing work on the field. Talk about a steal in the 5^th round, Biermann has already surpassed the talent of the first round bust Jamall Anderson. I see this kid only getting better and better.

8. Malcom Floyd- WR- San Diego: You remember that solid Number 1 receiver out in San Diego? Oh, you forgot? His name is Vincent Jackson, and no one has really noticed he didn’t play this year. This is mainly because Malcom Floyd has stepped up. The kid is a solid athlete and a free agent this year. Maybe he can end up in Atlanta next year? Please?

7. Jason Snelling- RB – Atlanta: Now I know he plays for Atlanta, and you may think I’m just throwing Falcons players on the list because I’m a fan, but the guy can play. He understands the game, and always seems to get the yards he needs.

6. Danny Woodhead- RB – New England: Show the kid some respect. He is the size of a professional midget wrestler, and somehow gets reps in the NFL at running back. Woodhead may not have the biggest muscles in the league, but he is in the top 5 for biggest heart….

5. Tashard Choice- RB- Dallas: This kid is loaded with talent, but is only number 3 on the depth chart? What sucks even worse is he could easily be the featured back for 7-10 teams right now?

4. Pierre Thomas- RB New Orleans: This guy gets no credit because he plays alongside Drew Brees and Reggie Bush. But Thomas has been the most consistent running back in the Nola for a long time.

3. Josh Freeman- QB – Tampa Bay: The kid was highly drafted, but plays well under the radar in Tampa Bay. He is consistent, and has shown he can have the burden of the QB of the future placed on his shoulders….

2. Kyle Orton- QB – Denver: The guy gets love from no one, but he is actually a pretty consistent QB. He had a pretty decent year in Denver, and this after his team traded away the majority of his weapons, and his coach was fired mid season.

1. Jacoby Ford- WR- Oakland: This guy wont but under the radar for much longer. Over his past few games, he has lit up defenses and special teams units. He is one of the fastest guys in the league, and

As always, it has been a pleasure. Leave me your thoughts and comments on the facebook post…. See you all Friday morning Suckazzzzzz.
