I know most of you probably hate him cuz he's a big-time Pats fan. But I think he's funny as hell. Best line in this weeks column:
After another of Norv Turner's team quit on him, it raises the question: Does this spread to other aspects of his life? For instance, if Turner is walking his dog, does the dog simply stop walking two blocks from the house?

this is my favorite section of the article, i haven't seen this guy before and while i don't agree with some of his picks i enjoyed reading the article. thanks
With this whole Reggie Bush Phenomenon -- I know, I know, I can't stop bringing him up -- do you think Michael Vick is starting to feel the pressure a little bit? I mean, he thought he was a mortal lock to become the greatest video game character since Bo Jackson. Everyone agreed on this; even Vick seemed to enjoy it. But now Bush is looming as the first-ever "Madden" running back to get a 99 rating as a rookie, and by the time he's in the league for four years, his rating might be like 110. Poor Vick is like the Pixies hearing people buzzing about Nirvana for the first time. I think he's rattled.

''Dolphins (+14) over CHARGERS
I mean ... one of these big underdogs has to cover, right?''

Atleast someone picked us to win...

I read his article every week, he is hilarious. And though he is a Pats fan, he doesn't really hate the Dolphins.
 
"The 4-9 Bills just blew a three-touchdown lead with 12 minutes remaining to the immortal Sage Rosenfels."

LOL. I laughed until I dropped out my chair

"Not only are the Rams currently starting a quarterback who graduated from Harvard, not only does their game-breaking offensive player double as a white wide receiver, but the coach is named Joe Vitt and got his mustache from the Dave Wannstedt Starter Kit. Maybe they're 5-7, but how can they not suck?"
 
Wow thanks for the link, this guy is pretty funny. I'm going to read this every week.

he called us borderline crummy :(


we may not be a great team but crummy is a harsh and untrue way to put it

Obviuosly as Phins fan we don't want to believe it, but borderline crummy is actually a pretty accurate description of this team.
 
Im sure even a niners fan would say they arent borderline crummy. No fan ever considers his team borderline crummy

We got shutout by Cleveland. Borderline crummy is being nice.
