Zay’z – [ Den 'O' Slack ]

1. The commercials will suck way more than you hope they won’t.
2. The halftime show will have you scratching your head thinking; “Why didn’t we order the Lingerie Bowl?”
3. Just like when they played the Seachickens you’ll say out loud; “See I told you they should be called the Steal-ers!”
4. Where’d all the dip go and whom drank all of the good beer?
5. Is there still any beer left?
6. If “your team” loses; “If I just redo the game in Madden 09 it will all be better.” (But it won’t.)
7. If “your team” wins; “If I just redo the game in Madden 09 it will be all sorts of awesome!” (And it will.)
8. Bong.

Yesterdays football games were really on the weak side, three games and three blow outs. [sigh]

And I was expecting so much more from the Cards… [slaps forehead]

Let’s just hope they don’t tank it and head right into the gutter over the remaining few weeks of the season.

Eagles RB : Brian Westbrook

Did you hear what happened yesterday in the Eagles loss to the ‘Skins?

Brian “the offense” Westbrook came down with broken ribs, ouch!

“We’ll see how it works out for him,” Reid said.

You can scope it on the ESPN here.

Did you happen to catch last nights Monday Night Football clash between the two favorites out of the NFC East? The Eagles and Cowboys. What a flippin’ game.

Better then most MNF games the past few years and especially those ones featuring this rivalry.

In the end Dallas won forty one (41) to thirty seven (37) over the Eagles, in a crazy whacky (most points ever in MNF) sort of way.

Good times.

It’s that time of the football year again… Philly versus Dallas on MNF.

Yay baby!!!

So let’s preview:

And a flashback.

Well apparently those rumors of a MIA Vince Young from earlier this week might have been more accurate then previously thought.

We hear word today of the following:

“The mother of Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young said he’s “hurting inside and out” and indicated he might not want to play football any longer.”

The rest here.

I’ve made it no secret to friends, family or members of the species that I converse with on any basis that I have no love of or for Comcast. I’ve had repeatedly bad experiences nearly every time I’ve had services with “them” save for one.

They will consistently talk bad about DirectTV, however I never had any issues with their service (which doesn’t mean there aren’t any) but again this year I’m forced to go back since I can not obtain DirectTV service where I currently am staying.

So I had an appointment scheduled for yesterday between noon and two in the afternoon, which meant I needed to leave work to be there to let him in.

hat time do you think he showed up? Yeah, two-thirty.

Nice, I know right.

We got a HD-DVR this time and the HD package so we can watch football this season in all its awesomeness.

I forgot to mention that I don’t like television “programming” so much and the only reason we are even getting any type of TV service is to watch the NFL games this year. (Particularly the Bucs, Boys and Seachickens.)

Anyways, I had everything all ready to go for him… he basically only had to make a custom length coax cable and plug in the DVR to the TV which was all nice and setup for him.

He was there less than thirty minute, most of which was actually spent on the phone trying to bill me. [shrug]

Oh well… we’ll cancel again after the NFL season is over and then by next season we’ll have moved and have the opportunity to get us some DirectTV love.

However On-Demand is interesting, though a tad over difficult to navigate. I watched Blown Away and 12 Monkeys last night.

[yawn]

MAXIMOnline has a list of the ten worst broadcasters in sports, the rest really aren’t relelvent so let’s see what they say about number ONE.

Chris Berman

One of ESPN’s original broadcasters, Berman is the godfather of taking a spectacular athletic moment and butchering it with bullshit. Whether he’s creating “wacky” nicknames for players—Mike “Enough” Aldretti, Esteban “Bats in the” Beltre—or bellowing, “Back-back-back-back-back!” whenever someone hits a home run, Boomer never fails to shoehorn his trademark nonsense into a game.

He said it: Caught on-camera in 2000 just before Monday Night Football returned from com­mercial: “Why does everybody all of a sudden have to move? You’ve got two fucking hours to move around. Wait 10 minutes. Jesus!…It’s like no one has worked on TV here before! Jesus!”
