2 Things in sports that are pissing me off today

Hank Steinbrenner pops off about the Red Sox, and John Henry. John Henry responds by offering Stein an honorary membership in Red Sox Nation in an attempt to lighten the situation, and get people laughing. Steinbrenner responds by basically wiping his ass with it. What a classless pile of shit, and the epitome of a New York sports fan.

ESPN came up with this story (although there doesn't seem to be a lot of evidence to back it up) that Randy Moss, and Daunte Culpepper might be talking about teaming up, and signing with the same team via free agency. I don't know who this makes sense to. Culpepper has been a complete disaster since he rushed his recovery from his knee injury. He had a 1:1 TD/INT ratio last year in Oakland. He's falling apart at the seems, and I don't see too many teams that would be willing to invest in him as their starting QB. Maybe the Falcons would pick him up, but they seem like they're ready to draft a QB rather than go with an inconsistent veteran. Parcells would know way better than to pick him up in Miami (where he already fell apart once). MAYBE Baltimore, but then again a swap from McNair to Culpepper is more or less a lateral move.
I know Randy Moss is a weird guy in a lot of ways. But who walks away from Tom Brady for Daunte Culpepper. I smell BS.
[Mar 3,2008 12:19pm - dreadkill ""]
the yanks and sox thing doesn't bother me. hank said his family loves john henry and that they love the rivalry and may collaborate on non-baseball business in the future.
that moss/culpepper thing is retarded. no way randy moss leaves the pats unless he goes to a team with a comparable qb, like indy, who doesn't need him and wouldn't pay him more than the pats eventually will.
[Mar 3,2008 12:21pm - dreadkill ""]
the thing that pisses me off in sports right now is that no one in nhl circles is giving tim thomas any vezina or hart trophy consideration. i know the bruins have a good defensive system in place, but tim tom's play this year is what really has them in contention. i consider him the bruins mvp with chara a close second.
[Mar 3,2008 12:21pm - dreadkill ""]
also, no one cares about hockey. :(
[Mar 3,2008 12:22pm - kadooganomics 101 ""]
They keep talking about Moss going to Green Bay to keep Favre from retiring. NFL Network is desperate for shit to talk about.
"Well Moss leads all time in receptions on the 34 yard line in the 2nd half of games in the first half of the season at home by an African American since the merger."
Shut yer faces and show me more sports bloopers and/or old Superbowls.

Patriots, Moss reach agreement on three-year contract
By Adam Schefter | NFL.com
The Patriots and free agent wide receiver Randy Moss agreed to a three-year, $27 million contract on Monday, reports NFL Network's Adam Schefter.
The two sides are reviewing the contract, which is expected to be signed today.
Moss, 30, was an unrestricted free agent after the Patriots elected not to designate the 10-year veteran as their franchise player.
In his first season with the Patriots in 2007, Moss set the NFL single-season record with 23 touchdown receptions, while catching 98 passes for 1,493 yards.

Asante Samuel was going one way or another. He's hands down the best corner in the league, and he deserves to get paid for it. I can't hate the guy. He was phenomenal for us for years.
[Mar 3,2008 6:20pm - dreadkill ""]
i hate him for not intercepting that eli pass toward the end of the super bowl.

besides the 49ers 7th pick overall in the draft do we have anyone elses picks. i know we had to give up our 31st overall pick but anything else from another teams draft.

samuel, gay, and stallworth are all gone. they're saying eugene wilson is next, and rosie got released.

Stallworth wasn't a huge blow seeing as how he wasn't getting a ton of receptions.

actually it was it was insurance for wes and randy to help them get open since it was another deepthreat.
next season is gonna be grim
[Mar 3,2008 10:00pm - xmikex ""]
Out of all the mock drafts I've seen the Pats are lined up to pick either Vernon Gholston (one of the best defensive players in the draft, and a great OLB fit for the Pats 3-4), or one of two cornerbacks who could start in the NFL right away.
[Mar 3,2008 10:09pm - ConquerTheBaphomet ""]
Mike, where do you think Jake Long will end up? He's the most valued lineman in the draft.
[Mar 3,2008 10:30pm - xmikex ""]
I've heard of him going as early as #2 to St. Louis, and as low as #5 to Kansas City.
[Mar 3,2008 10:33pm - xmikex ""]
The draft that had him at #5 said Miami would take Matt Ryan at #1. For some reason I don't see that happening. As much as I hate the Dolphins I'm pretty interested to see what Parcells has planned. I don't feel like he's going to risk the #1 overall pick on a QB.
[Mar 3,2008 10:37pm - W3 nli ""]
id be really surprised if he even took that runningback im pretty sure itll be OL or DL with the first pick

W3%20nli said:id be really surprised if he even took that runningback im pretty sure itll be OL or DL with the first pick
Why draft a running back when the sole bright spot on your offense is Ronnie Brown?
I'd love to see the Dolphins blow their draft pick like they did last year, but it's pretty much laid out for them. They'd have to try really hard not to land a solid pick. Then again....
"And with the first pick in the 2008 draft, the Miami Dolphins select, from Yakima Washington Online College: Drew Bledsoe." And the failure begins.

2 things piss me off in sports today.
the media -- sucks. how the fuck do guys make multi million dollars by sheer speculation? wtf? i get the connection with vegas and the odds makers etc, and i understand former players as tv personalities, but who the fuck is someone like john clayton? these guys are fucking ass clowns. they may as well be weather forcasters and they never shut the fuck up!
i love sports but these doods are ruining shit. maybe i should be so affected but fuck it!
AND a big fuck you to 'red sox nation' and the pink hat wearing fucking sluts who listen to the drop kick murphys and sap on bud lights 'dood.'
dont get me wrong, i love the sox--but i just hate the fucking culture that surrounds the team and has become the epitome of our city.
FUCK OFF!

the dolphins will probably take chris long or glenn dorsey, much safer picks at number 1 than a qb, plus they look like they'll be early contributors, expecially dorsey. i want to see matt ryan drop 2 number 3 and go to atlanta. i want to see my falcons recover from the vick/petrino crap.

Losing Stallworth doesn't hurt, the Pats still have Chad Jackson if he doesn't get hurt for the 5th time in 2 years. If he stays healthy Jackson will be a beast.

i think they'll be ok without stallworth. moss and welker are good enough to take pressure off each other. they won't have seasons like this past one again without stallworth there, but they'll still be good.

The Pats schedule next season will be the second toughest in the league behind the Giants due to the Super Bowl. That is how the league does it. Many teams have the Pats figured out to an extent, so it will be tough. I think 11-5 is good, maybeeeeee 12-4. We'll see. Billy Chek will come up with new schemes so they will fair well, but not as good record wise this past season.

Most likely Brady cheats just like his team does and now that everyone knows he's a little bitch when he gets hit from now on the Pat's will not be beating teams so easily. Brady will never compare to FAVRE I guarentee it.

if AZ doesn't get rid of fitz, they'll be pretty good, and i'm with you on the nfc north thing. that division is wide open. i think even chicago has a chance if they get someone other than rex to start at qb. resigning him was retarded.

Jets are throwing around a lot of money, but they're most likely losing Jason Vilma. They still don't have a quarterback, and will try to go with Kellen Clemens (ha!). Pace could be a really good acquisition for them, but he's been injured a lot, and could just as easily be a bust.

hey im just saying theyre throwing money around i dont think theyll make the playoffs this year, the QB is their biggest need.

Brady cheats, that's a good one. That's why even after the videotaping scandal (which so many coaches, and players have admitted had minimal, if not no real effect on anything) Brady has a career season, and breaks the single season touchdown record.

if you judge good teams by super bowl wins and good quarterbacks by the same standard, brady is technically better than brett favre. stats are irrelevant as far as i'm concerned, look at marino. and charisma? character? what is this a dance competition? yeah that shit makes for a feel good story but just because johnny numbnuts its the nicest guy you've ever met doesnt make him the worlds greatest quarterback.
that being said favre is the fucking man, brady, manning (peyton, fuck eli), all them have the potential to reach his status for sure, but they need to prove it over 17 years. what favre has accomplished with his game starting streak and playing through injuries and shit is definitley impressive. guy didnt miss a start in the toughest sport out there, minus rugby.

Jim Kelly was a beast. You're totally right in saying that he deserves recognition on some level of top quarterbacks of all time. Maybe not top 5, but up there. The only reason the Giants took that first superbowl is because Belichick's defense let the Bills think they controlled the line of scrimmage with the running game. The Giants were terrified of Kelly, and rightfully so.
Farve did what he did for 17 seasons. He tossed a few crappy seasons in there along the way though. What really made me finally bow down and show the man some respect was that he found a way to turn it all around when everyone thought he was done.
Fuck rugby.

yeah but he didnt win anything so fuck him and the bills for taking up superbowl spotshahahaha, i was sick of seeing the bills in the super bowl too. the two years of buffalo-dallas super bowls sucked ass.

contagion said:if you judge good teams by super bowl wins and good quarterbacks by the same standard, brady is technically better than brett favre. stats are irrelevant as far as i'm concerned, look at marino. and charisma? character? what is this a dance competition? yeah that shit makes for a feel good story but just because johnny numbnuts its the nicest guy you've ever met doesnt make him the worlds greatest quarterback.
that being said favre is the fucking man, brady, manning (peyton, fuck eli), all them have the potential to reach his status for sure, but they need to prove it over 17 years. what favre has accomplished with his game starting streak and playing through injuries and shit is definitley impressive. guy didnt miss a start in the toughest sport out there, minus rugby.what about hockey and mma?fighting doesnt count because its fighting. obviously its tough. on the same token they arent out there fighting one night a week for ranked matches and shit. chuck liddel started fighting 10 years ago and is 21-5. thats 2.6 ranked matches a year, and you can argue for unranked/sparring etc but its not like football players dont practice with live hitting. its all relative but not missing a single game with less than a week to recover between most of them is damn impressive. not to mention his gaudy numbers. and i really dont think hockey is that tough in general, yeah people get hit but its only claim to brutality is the fights and stupid shit players do which both command penalties. its perfectly legal for a 220 lb safety to get a 20 yard running start and hit a quarterback as hard as he can if he has the ball in his hands. I'm on adderall right now so I could go on for days but you get my drift.

Browns win 3-0 in OT

lets also not forget its illegal to hit a hockey player in the back, regardless of whether they have the puck. I played defensive end in high school and let me tell you, lining up a quarterback who has no idea your coming from the blindside is definitely the dream, and totally legal as long as he has the ball.
