Usually I leave a snarky comment but I’ve seen what two time Super Bowl Champion Troy Polamalu is capable of on the field so I’ll leave it at, “Here’s the new head and shoulders commercial featuring the always bad ass Troy Polamalu.”
In case you forgot what I’m talking about… Here’s Troy in his natural habitat…
And in case you forgot how this ends… LT gains zero yards on this play…
Troy explaining how the Samoan way of life has contributed to his success.
Yeah… he’s bad ass.
Remember when?!?!?!?!?
Talk about missing the mark.
Listen to this guy… “If you ain’t blue you ain’t true!”
“Sip and dip and take that trip!”
I want to party with this guy. You know he probably knows all the great places to hang out.
The college version of LeGarrette Blount gave us this fine moment…
…now the NFL LeGarrette Blount gives us this fine moment…
Coach Jeff Fisher is going to have his hands full with the yabo…
…when tribute videos to Peyton Manning start to appear on youtube…
Gets the blood pumping again… the song he used is kinda average but meh… who cares… NFL football is coming back.
Eli took a massive hit to the FACE because Brandon Jacobs blew his route. Couple of things happened here…. Eli showed he can take a hit. Brandon Showed why he’ll be the number 2 back on the roster this year.
Carnage film!
The Giants second stringers beat the Jets second stringers in the game 31-16. More importantly we saw that the New York Jets as of right now are only REALITY SHOW TOUGH. This means that they are talking a great game but in actual gameplay…. NAH! Maybe they will gel during the season. Meh… Who cares… It’s the Jets.
NFL preseason games were in full swing over the weekend. They were mostly boring but these are the best story lines from around the league.
While we know Luke McCown is a good quarterback, don’t bury David Garrard just yet.
Sage Rosenfels. I know Brett Favre. I’ve had the pleasure of watching Brett Favre play football. You sir are no Brett Favre.
Kyle Orton will start for the Broncos. Hopefully he stays healthy all year long because Tim Tebow needs a little more learning time.
Oh and Pray for the Indianapolis Colts. If Peyton has to miss any game time, Curtis Painter will drive the Colts over a cliff.
I’m not a Jets fan but you have to love Rex Ryan’s witty and abrasive style.
Colts owner Jim Irsay made his second trip to Colts training camp this week. And, he’s keeping Colts fans happy with cash.
Practice was coming to a close, he walks over to the fans near a fence circling the stadium and starts to pass out envelopes. They envelope had an autographed picture of himself and $100.
NFL football owners are wacky. I know, I know. WHAT? NFL OWNERS ON THE EDGE? Bud Adams and Jerry Jones to name two right away. They are my favorite wacky owners. However, Irsay’s wacky side seems to be at the same level as Ed McMahon giving cash away like he did in the 80′s for Publishers Clearing House.
I get the feeling that Irsay has got to be a ton of fun in a bar. Absolutely need to hang out with him at some point.
I mean he spent a few million on the original manuscript for Jack Kerouac’s On The Road. Check this out?
You know he’d be up for doing body shots off of 23 year old girls. Kudos Jim. Long may you run.
“There were times that the looks were there and everything I’ve been taught in running this system was to run it,” said Manning, who has the final say in the play-calling when the Colts get to the line of scrimmage. “But I’d call the run and we’d get one yard, be in second-and-9. After awhile, you do that and it’s hard to keep coming back to it.”
Bill Polian was asked if this was a problem. His answer was, “Is it a problem? No.”
Some people have issues with Bill Polian. Not I. Dude has created a real version of Camelot in Indianapolis. Love Bill Polian. Go talk to the city of Buffalo and ask how they have been since Bill Polian was asked to leave. Don’t waste your time. The Buffalo Bills have been poop since. Long may Bill Polian run.
The biggest “controversy” in the Colts off-season found here.
Players making t-shirts, coaches encouraging talking about the Super Bowl in training camp, looking back on past playoff games they lost with the ever killing thought of, “What If?” The Green Bay Packers, a talented team are already setting themselves up for a major fail in the upcoming 2010/11 NFL season.
Apparently camp is going well and the Packers are cool with the development of just about everyone on the team.
Cullen Jenkins says it best about the Packers when he states, “We know we’re high on people’s radar, so it’s going to be up to us to back it up. Now a lot of teams are going to be gunning for us.”
They are going to get knocked out of the playoffs in spectacular fashion. I can’t wait.
For the second straight day Albert Hanesworth failed his conditioning test.
Here’s the lesson Albert is learning. You do not mess with Mike Shanahan… ever. You win him a title. Drama is mos def not allowed.
Read Albert’s continued failure here.
…on themselves for last year. An embarrassment of a season that ended with a 8-8 record and no playoff appearance.
“Our fans don’t want promises or predictions,” said Pat Hanlon, the Giants vice president of communications. “They want results. This has been a tremendously challenging off-season. We all got called out at the end of last season. Our football operation — Jerry Reese, Tom Coughlin, our scouts, coaches and players — has worked its [butt] off to put us in position to erase the memory of last season. Training camp is the next step in the process of achieving the ultimate objective: victory. And it requires absolute commitment and focus.”
Looks like the G-men have a tough 20 days ahead of them. Story here.
Let’s remind us why Mike Ditka rules… not because he was a great Tight End in his day… not because he was a Super Bowl winning coach… not because he is a great announcer… it’s the respect he has for his nuts even in front of the camera.
Bless you Mike Ditka… long may you run.
Training camps start next week! O HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
