This weekend, my brothers and I will pack up and head to Fredonia, Wisconsin. What’s drawing us there? Some sort of concert? The world’s largest meatball? Are we trying to be extras in a movie being shot there?
Nope - the answer is that this weekend is the Mecca AND Medina of […]
Update: I’m not the only one who recognizes Favre’s selfishness. Pro Football Weekly weighs in:
Now, we’ll hear about how Favre is one phone call away every time Rodgers throws a bad pick or loses a game with a so-so fourth quarter.
Enough of this B.S. The endurance of Favre as a story is part […]
Update: This makes me happy.
Update 2: Peter King talks about air force officers wanting to cry, and in a good example of the Favre media hype, puts words to a facial expression Favre made. An air force officer says “dude, I’m shaking.”
Update 3: A Packers fan says that this is one of […]
I didn’t want to write a sports story today, but this one is just too good not to talk about. Peter King, Sports Illustrated’s content-provider extraordinnaire, put together his list of the top 500 players in the NFL. Not top 10, 25, 50, or even 100 - 500!
Although he weighs position as having importance (QBs, […]
If you’re an NFL superstar with lots of money, there are a few rules to follow. One, don’t fight dogs. Two, don’t go to strip clubs with guys named “T-Money.” Third, if you’re Michael Strahan - don’t ever, EVER, get married.
Michael Strahan, previously worth $22 million and TWO testicles, had to pay […]
Yesterday was a big news day, so I want to cover two things that happened.
First, Chief Justice and conservative-friendly genius John Roberts, only 52 years old, had a seizure and was hospitalized. That’s right: the most able-bodied looking justice of them all (http://img.timeinc.net/time/daily/2006/0609/supremes_0930.jpg), and possibly one of my favorites, is the one with health issues…
…NOT […]
This past weekend, me, my brothers, and some friends convened to watch the NFL Draft (the first round in full - all six-plus hours of it). It’s one of the coolest weekends every year. It’s so cool, that my brother Mike decided to chronicle our adventures with a tape recorder.
Here are the people who will […]
In the Kenitz household, the NFL Draft time is nearly as sacred as the Superbowl. I’m going to be pretty much inactive this weekend as we all group together along with a few friends and revel in the pure football coverage that ESPN provides Saturday and Sunday.
My older brother Mike will be taking down […]
If you’re a black man in the United States, you might get to say a lot of racist things with a free pass from the media, but if you’re against gay marriage, then you’re going down!
Superbowl-winning coach Tony Dungy, who wrongfully robbed the Chicago Bears’ also-black Lovie Smith of a title, but rightfully proclaimed from […]
I usually don’t write about non-Bears sports stories for my main post of the day, but this one was too interesting for me to pass up.
The dirtyrottenrhymer Marty Schottenheimer, now former head coach of the 14-2, best record in the league San Diego Chargers, is now without a job.
Chargers coach Marty Schottenheimer was fired Monday […]
