Week 7’s Monday Night Football (MNF) brings not one, but two games, meaning your football-watching strategy needs to be on point. The ESPN & ESPN+ broadcasts overlap, so without multiple screens handy, you may have to face some tough choices. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are hosting the Baltimore Ravens first; followed by a west coast […]

#WaiverWire Wednesday on Tuesday (W6)
Week 6 Fantasy Football Pickups (Maybe) The NFL season is chugging along, and Week 6 is here to remind us that chaos reigns supreme in fantasy football. Between injuries, bye weeks, and those inexplicable decisions to start your benchwarmers, your roster is probably a bit of a mess. But don’t worry, I’m here to offer […]
Never Bet the Farm4 [W5] – First quarter (sorta)
First quarter down… Well, it’s almost done. See… This whole 17-week thing kind of changes everything! NFL coaches have always broken down seasons into four quarters of weeks; however, when the owners added an odd 17th game, the official pole marker had to be moved (technically). Now, the season’s first quarter ends after the first […]
Coach Senator Tuberville
Senator Tuberville… Coach Senator Tuberville… What should we call you? I personally don’t get a vote in the state of Alabama, but I completely support this move. I have never met a person more suited for politics than “Tommy Tupperware,” as my girfriend’s dad likes to call him. First off… What an interesting life? He’s […]
Earl Thomas can raise any finger he wants
If you have a problem with Seahawks DB Earl Thomas’ finger, you probably haven’t ever worked for a company you hate. I’ve personally had at least four jobs that could go shove it, and I’m only a couple years older than Thomas. If you haven’t felt like that before, you should consider yourself lucky because […]
Believe it or not there ARE rainouts on Opening Day
Much to my surprise, the Cincinnati Reds are postponing Opening Day (which is a big deal in these parts).

Repeat: Opening Day is TOMORROW. ℹ https://t.co/7loKCH9ixg pic.twitter.com/LgdX9xXMRQ — […]
NFL-UFC: Green vs Evans vs Hardy
Anyone want a NFL-UFC hybrid? We all remember wrestling and football could NOT be mixed. (I mean… If Mr. McMahon couldn’t make it work, it’s impossible, right?) However, could a NFL-UFC sport succeed? We pretty much got a preview this weekend. As reported on TotalProSports, former NFL defensive end Greg Hardy started off the NFL-UFC […]
Teaching My GF Sports #5: Baby Shower Tigers
Hello bromigos & girlitos… First off… No! My girlfriend is NOT giving birth to a tiger. It’s not even her baby shower I’m referencing. She was attending her friend’s shower (human baby), while I watched college football by myself from the comfort of my couch. Hold your horses and put down the stogies, parents… Side […]
Sergio Dipp: America’s New Sweetheart
Any great coach (especially in football) will tell you… Unexpected leaders need to emerge and fill vacant roles for a team to be successful. Sports broadcasting is no different… INSERT: ESPN broadcaster Sergio Dipp for his MNF debut. For the second Monday Night Football game of Week 1, Chargers vs. Broncos, the World-Wide Leader in Sports […]
Silver Linings NBA Playbook
Is there a silver lining to this past NBA season? Much to my surprise, yes! It was incredibly boring, but there was one great thing that happened from the Golden State Warriors winning the 2017 NBA Finals… Steve Nash finally gets a ring! .@SteveNash wins his first NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors! https://t.co/QBcn87c93i […]
