Wednesday Blast

Hello NFL Fans,

Once again it is time to blast your problems away on hump day. For those of you that do not know how this works, here it is. You let me know what is bothering you, football wise, since I am not a therapist. I post it on my weekly article and hopefully help relieve the stress in your life. I have received even more feedback since the last two Blasts. You guys are giving me great ammo to continue putting your opinions out there.

Let’s get right in it, we will start with the most requested and humiliated Raider Nation

“Why are you still alive Al?”

“Why are you still alive, to make our lives miserable? To make me want to put my head in oven? Not because we play bad, but because you makes look terrible. Why did you hire Kiffin if you were going to murder him in the media after a year. You imprison everyone who has anything to do with the franchise. We look somewhat decent, the worst part of our team is the Defense! Wake up old man, Ryan can’t make them play better, maybe it’s the scheme, maybe it’s the so called swagger that they have. I have not seen it, since a Rookie took it from us on opening day! A rookie! Al please just stop breathing, please let us try to start over with the players that are here.”

The Crying Game pt. 2

Hello NFL fans,

    Here we are again with the on going drama that is the Valley of the Departed, or as you know them, the Dallas Cowboy fan base. You see after the critically acclaimed article The TO Story, there was only one thing I could do, make a crappy sequel! This sequel would not have been if not for the despicable actions of the Dallas Cowgirls and their equally brain dead fan base.

    As we all know Tereal Owins went ahead and started his bash-o-team techniques that we have come to know and love. Yes, yes I know it was all taken out of context, he just a competitor and he wants to win. Right you keep on saying that Valley of the Departed, you keep trying to convince yourselves that your are not blind. You believe everything that is portrayed as OK to be real. It was OK when you guys were rebuilding, for ten years! The only other team rebuilding for that long has been the Arizona Cardinals who still feel like a brand new franchise even though they have been in the league for 100 years.

Hello Blast fans,

Just in time for Humpday here we go with another edition of The Wednesday Blast. This week the majority of concerns sit with me and my fellow Eagle brethren. Other blasts come from all corners of the NFL world, Seattle, Nawlins and Motown.                                                 Let’s get it started!!!!!!!!

First we will start in Motown where everyone is ready to fight!

“0-5, This is my Arena!!!!!!”

“Hey Coach since you are a fighter and your arena is always being behind and always being a loser, I was wondering how old you were when you became a Lions fan?

NFC East

Week 6

Hello East Fans,

Well after a week of Hiatus to curse the football gods for my team’s embarrassing losses. I felt a preview of the Best division in Football was the only way to quench the thirst. Every team in the division except for Washington is on the road, let’s start with the leaders of the pack.

Skins -vs.- Hawks

I know what you are thinking, “The Skins are gonna kill them!” That very well might be true, but the thing is that number 8 for the Hawks might not suit up for the game. Enter Seneca? Maybe, I am 97% sure that Holmgren will use Charlie Frye instead of “The Seneca”. I think his lack of arm strength doesn’t overshadow his ability to take over a game. What you are saying I’m talking crazy right, all I am saying is he is the kind of player you need to let the reigns loose in order for the Offense to be successful.

NFC East

Week 6

Hello East fans,

Wow what a week in the division, I can barely catch my breath after today’s games. First off I would like to apologize for my previous post. I had stated that the Redskins would be playing against the Seahawks and I do not know why I thought that.

But even I could not have predicted the travesty that happened in the Nation’s capital.

How can the winless, worthless, lifeless Rams go into the Skins’ house and get their first win. Amazingly they did with something they had not had before, Defense. They played passionately and rather consistent on that side of the ball. Somehow the Skin D could not get off the field and they could not capitalize on their opportunities. Campbell had a solid game apart from the fumbles, and the bad play of the offensive line.

Is the Sky falling?

Hello NFL fans,

Well I am sure by now you Cowgirl fans are talking to the almighty for forgiveness and making unrealistic propositions for a little help. Don’t be alarmed Valley of the Departed I have all the confidence in Jerry Jones going two years with a 40 something quarterback as the backup. I mean didn’t Vinny play amazingly well when he was in there. Of course he did people, he was the best QB there was on the team. Do not pay any attention to the fact that this team was put together to be motivated when times were rough.

TO needs his pacifier, Mr. Jessica Simpson needs some mascara and everyone else needs their back rubbed and told everything is going to be alright. Heaven forbid the coach was outspoken and honest with his team, like oh I don’t know the Big Tuna. Either way Wade is a positive guy who hates to cut players who aren’t cutting it. If you are that type of person you should not be the leader of the biggest bunch of over-paid and over-hyped pre-madonnas in America’s game.

The Wednesday Blast

 

Hello Blast fans,

What a week to be an NFL fan huh? Great finishes, amazing breakdowns and outstanding individual plays. I think I got about twenty or so emails for this blast and of course I always pick the best ones. I do have to admit I had a lot of Dallas correspondence on Monday morning after the news came out. There are others that just keep coming from places like Detroit, Seattle and Oakland. We do have some new ones from the NYC and DC where there was major uproar after their respective teams bit the big one.

Here we go let’s start out in Maryland where they are still in shock!

NFC East

Week 7 preview

Hello East fans,

     As we head into the critical part of the season, the East sets up for a huge weekend of football. Last week’s slip up by every team except Philly made the race a lot tighter. We do not know if Mr. Jessica Simpson will play this Sunday after speaking with Brett over the week. Eli seems to have a injury similar to SuperFive’s and the Skins are wondering if they really lost to the Rams or not.

    Let’s begin in the Big Apple where the G-men were run out of Cleveland on monday night and their biggest weakness was exposed. Their secondary was torched all game by an offense that has not gone vertical since last year. Eli showed his old self again and this week going up against a so-so defense in San Fran, he might be able to have a big day. If not, well Coughlin you have backs over there that can win the game even if the Whiners put nine in the box. Plus, the “Fade to Plax” is as unstoppable as anything we have seen in a while. On the other side if O’Sullivan can play like he did in the first three quarters of last weeks game, the Whiners will be victorious. He was making great throws, opening up the running game and led until he remembered he was J.T. O’Sullivan and he shouldn’t be playing that well.

The Day After the Blowout

Hello East fans,

    Okay so my predictions were way off, well not by much except for the thrashing in St. Louis, I really think it is code red in Big D. The Skins got away with one at home against the resurged Brownies. The G-men handled the Whiners the way you should, let them beat themselves. Let’s start off with the biggest upset in the NFL since the previous week.

    Tony Romo spoke to Brett and decide he was going to try and be a big man like him and play, Jerry said no way and Brad started the game. The Cowgirls came out firing on all cylinders, Barber was bruising, the O-line had forgotten last week and TO did not drop any balls either. Then the Legend of Donnie Avery emerged from the sidelines and absolutely burned who ever was assigned to him. Steven Jackson made me think of picking him up in fantasy football again and the Rams defensive backs looked amazing. In all actuality they all looked like a real football team.

Wednesday Blast!

Somewhere the Tuna is smiling…

Hello Blast fans,

    It’s that time again, time to do some blasting and we got some great stuff from Frisco, KC and everywhere else. Now since there are an extremely large amount of blasts with a number of unsavory words. I take it upon myself to replace them and still keep the original statements intact.

Kansas city here we come!!!!

“Chiefs of futility”

“Okay so now I understand the reasoning behind not getting rid of Tony or LJ for some better picks or even players. We needed to suspend one and make the other one miserable. Okay I got it, yeah keep the woman assaulter I am sure nobody wanted him right. I read somewhere that about the asking price for Tony and we still did not pull the trigger… Does everyone know what the asking price was? A 2-3 rounder plus a player, a couple teams met this including the Eagles. Yet he is still a Chief and loving it after the drubbing we just got handed at the by the Titans. Unbelievable, how pathetic are we that we won’t even look to move a player that will probably be incarcerated soon, Genius!!! This is why we will win the division on our majestic road to the first of many Superbowl wins. WOW!”
