I was just influenced by Mark Sanchez and his hot dog eating extravaganza. Wandering around the local 7-Eleven I found myself thinking about the Jets game for some reason. I guess it’s just instilled in me to think football 24/7. Anyhow, I approached the hotdog stand recalling Sanchez had been eating a hotdog on the sideline of Sunday’s game against the Raiders. Now I know that it’s nothing like a ballpark hotdog, but hey this is America. Hotdogs are as American as apple pie and cupcakes, McDonald’s and Harley Davidson no matter where they come from.
I try to stay lean and eat right, but I figured if a star rookie quarterback can do it, hell I can put 400 calories worth of processed goodness into my body. Americans eat over 20 billion hotdogs a year (fact) so it ain’t no thing really and if you have a problem with Sanchise sneaking a quick in-game weiner than you need to re-evaluate your opinion. Yeah, he could have been snacking on an energy bar or have the little man on the totem pole from the sideline staff go whip him up a protein shake, but the man wanted a hotdog. He also stated he hadn’t had anything to eat and was feeling woozy in pre-game warmups. I think it is ridiculous for people to get on him for eating a hotdog during a game and it shouldn’t have even been a news worthy debate. I’m sure Rex Ryan had four or five for his Sunday breakfast and if Brett Favre can have a dip on the sidelines, should Marky Mark really be criticized. I mean, that’s garbage! Isn’t that the equivalent to a smoke-break?
Then again, it is Brett Favre.
There’s a great article from the guys at Bleacher Report on the coach’s response that you can find here http://tinyurl.com/yh5yhtu. Rex Ryan shows his wonderful sense of humor.
More Garbage
- Thank you Ahmad Bradshaw for not only taking several carries away from Brandon Jacobs all season long, but for your wonderful personal foul penalty and fumble that stopped a promising drive for me to gain extra fantasy points as I face Clinton Portis tonight up by 12.45. You have screwed me this season and hopefully you will be in the coach’s doghouse for the next several weeks.
- Do me a favor, call me jerk one more time……..you’re a jerk Larry Johnson. Not only are you the dumbest football player in the league, you’re a jerk. The reason my hometown team sucks so bad is not because of Todd Haley, or Matt Cassell. It’s because the locker room decay that is Larry Johnson. LJ decided to run his twittering mouth after Sunday’s massacre against division rival San Diego making comments like his father could coach this team better than Todd Haley and wrote “Nuthn” when speaking about his credentials continued by saying Golf, referring to Todd Haley who played golf at USC, Florida, and Miami.
First off, Haley has grown up around football. The elder (Dick) Haley played cornerback in the NFL for seven seasons, four with the Steelers. But after his playing days were over, Haley went into scouting, not coaching. Haley served as the Steelers’ director of player personnel from 1971-90 and helped build the teams that won four Super Bowls in a span of six seasons.
Larry also went on to argue with a fan, showing his maturity or lack thereof by calling him a fag and using other slang terms. He also told a bunch of reporters that he was not answering questions and told them to “get their faggot asses outta here.” Not only are you a club-punching he man woman hater, but now you are talking yourself outta of a job. On top of that, you’ve got the advocates for Gay and Lesbian Rights after your ass. The man has a history of run-ins with the law. He has had four arrests for various degrees of battery since being drafted by the Chiefs in 2003. One charge was pled down, with Johnson serving time in a domestic violence diversion program. A second charge was dropped, while two other charges – including a spitting incident – were reduced to disturbing the peace. Johnson received probation for a guilty plea in the latter two charges.
Good riddance to you Larry Johnson. I hope you never play another down in professional football. The only cool thing you have ever done was pull down Troy Polamalu by his hair on a tackle after he intercepted a pass. And if that’s the coolest thing you’ve ever done, it shows us the kind of man you are. We are tired of you here. You tipped my girlfriend $5 on a $120 tab last week at Ra Sushi. That’s Garbage.
- The refs screwed Sidney Rice outta an even better fantasy day when calling a tripping penalty on fullback Jeff Duggan negating a 10-yard touchdown pass from Favre to Rice. This was not only crucial in fantasy circles, but three plays later the Steelers took a 77-yard fumble return the other way. If you were upset with Favre on Sunday, please note the aforementioned instance as well as a screen-pass that Chester Taylor tipped up in the air that was again taken to the house. Don’t blame things on me for playing Favre and I will back that by saying he’s starter worthy the rest of the season. Wonder how much Tomlin is paying for these calls? That’s garbage!
- JaMarcus Russell, you’re time is limited. Not only were you finally put to rest on the bench in favor of anybody who can throw a pass, but you got on your receiver’s ass for not fighting for a ball in the endzone that Darrelle Revis picked off. If you want to be a leader in this league, which is a must at the quarterback position, starting blaming yourself before you blame others. Revis is a all-pro cornerback and he is out their to make big plays. Maybe you should throw it to your number one draft pick. Speaking of more garbage, Michael Crabtree now has more catches than Darius Heyward-Bey.
- Did anybody see Beanie Wells stiff-arm two Giants defenders on the way to the end zone. Was he saying, f u to Giants defenders, or f u Tim Hightower? Should be a stud next season. Giant tackling=garbage.
That’s all I got for now homies. Got the popcorn already in the microwave. Looking forward to watching Clinton Portis get shut down. As always, nobody matters but you on Monday Night.
