First of all, who else is sick to death of Peyton and Eli Manning commercials?  Every other freaking commercial on NFL Network, ESPN, and even during the Olympics on NBC is the Mannings.  Enough already!!!
Secondly, Cardinal stud WR Anquan Boldin is very unhappy in Arizona and is requesting a trade.  (As I just wrote a […]

Here it is!  The big game (so far anyway.)
Interestingly, both games are a rematch from Week 2 this season.  Green Bay beat New York 35-13, and New England beat San Diego 38-14. 
I was watching Gameday on NFL Network this morning.  Trent Dilfer was illustrating the injury to Philip Rivers’ knee and how it may affect his […]

(Wow, I’m impressed with myself over that title!)
Shawne Merriman had missed practice earlier this week due to an illness.  Flu-like symptoms, he asserts he caught from Antonio Cromartie (after laughing at Cro for being sick….tsk tsk.)  Luckily they are both feeling better, and Merriman along with Norv Turner, Billy Volek, Shaun Phillips, Stephen Cooper, Luis […]

Hmmm, well, I ought to predict BIG things for the Chargers (after all they have won their 2nd AFC West title in 2 years and….come on, you all know the words by now…..their 3rd in 4 years!); however, being a long-time Chargers fan, things don’t always happen the way they should.
Last meeting, LaDaininan Tomlinson ran […]
