Eagles Jason Kelce trys to snap the ball up his own backside!

If Jason Kelce wasn't wearing any pants he could have carried the ball in his colon all the way into the end zone.  Michael Vick is used to this kind of play from his time on the Federal Penal Football team.

The Lions "Tebow" to Celebrate Sack!

Talk about getting dirt smushed in your face - Lions Linebacker Stephen Tulloch celebrates a sack in the Lions 45-10 drubbing of the Broncos by doing Tebow's own celebration move "the tebow."   This one had to hurt the ego a bit!

B.J. the Greek - Week 8 Picks

Giants -9.5 vs. Dolphins
Dolphins continue their SUCK for LUCK tour. Miami is averaging just 13 points in their last five games. Miami has failed to cover their last two on the road, including ATS against the Jets at Met Life stadium. Expect a long day for Matt Moore, with turnovers. Daniel Thomas is out for the game. Reggie Bush is going to have a good game?

Ravens -12.5 vs. Cardinals
Ravens have won big at home against Steelers, Jets, and Texans. Ravens D is the best in the NFL. Today their offense makes up for that disgusting Monday night performance. Arizona is 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games on the road. Ravens 8-2 ATS dating back to last year.

Saints -13 at Rams
The Rams are averaging just under 7 ppg in their last four games!!! Saints put up 62 points last week. The Rams spread numbers are bad. 0-6 against the spread this year, 1-9 ATS dating back to last year, and 1-5 ATS in their last six at Edward Jones Dome.

Texans -9.5 vs. Jaguars
Texans are 4-1 ATS in their last five against the Jaguars at Reliant Stadium. Jacksonville 2-7 ATS in their last nine dating back to the 2010 season.

49ers -9 vs. Browns
Jim Harbaugh 5-0-1 ATS in this rookie season as a coach. Browns 2-11 ATS since midway through last season. Petyon Hillis is out again. No weapons on offense for Colt Mcoy and the 49ners D is giving up jusy 16ppg. The Colts wont reach that mark today.

B.J. the Greek - NCAA Football Picks

Illinois +5 at Penn State
Ron Zook 4-1 ATS against Penn State and he is 11-5 as an underdog in his last 16. Penn State is 2-6 ATS this year. Penn State offense not impressive. The Nittany Lions have scored less than 16 points in half their games this year. Expect a close game, with either team winning by only a few points.
(Illinois 6-2 WL, 3-5 ATS) (PSU 7-1 WL, 2-6 ATS)

Iowa -16 at Minnesota
Golden Gophers have lost their last 3 Big Ten games by and average 38 points. Minnesota has allowed 45 points in their last four games all losses in which they have failed to cover. Iowa is averaging 43 ppg in their last games, both wins.
(Iowa 5-2 WL, 3-4 ATS) (Minnesota 1-6 WL, 2-5 ATS)

UNLV +3.5 vs. Colorado State
YES, we are backing UNLV! They are 6-1 ATS at Sam Boyd Stadium since last year. UNLV beat Hawaii last month 40-20 at home. Colorado State is 1-8 ATS in their last nine games, and 3-12 ATS in their last 15 road games. Their season is in a tail spin. Still glad you fired Sonny Lubick CSU?
(UNLV 1-5 WL, 2-4 ATS) (CSU 3-4 WL, 1-6 ATS)

Wisconsin -6.5 at Ohio State
Expect this one to get ugly. Badgers team fired up after its loss to Michigan State last week on last play hail mary. Ohio State freshman qb Miller is a major step down from MSU's Cousins. Expecting Bielema to run the score up and show last weeks loss was a fluke and get Wisconsin into the Rose Bowl and a top 5 finish. Stud RB's Montee Ball and James White run all over OSU, and Wilson will hook up with Toon for a couple of big plays. Including last weeks loss ATS, Bielema is 12-2 ATS in his last 14 games. Buying a point for -135.
(Wisconsin 6-1 WL, 5-2 ATS) (OSU 4-3 WL, 4-3 ATS)

Stanford -6.5 at USC
Stanford is on an impressive 15 game winning streak. They have covered 10 straight games. They are not just winning, they are BLOWING teams out. Love the line thanks to USC's win last week in South Bend. Stanford is 5-1 ATS in their last six at the Coliseum. Buying a point for -135.
(Stanford 7-0 WL, 7-0 ATS) (USC 6-1 WL, 4-3 ATS)

Guru - Week 8 Picks

#24 has a raging boner!

The Guru has gone 2-1 two weeks in a row, after a real slow start.  Bringing the season total is now at 8-10.  

Week 8 picks:

Cowboys +3.5 at the Eagles – The Cowboys have a change to put the DREAMgles away for the 2011 season and I think they come out hard on Sunday night. 

Lions -3 at the Broncos – Matt Stafford is a go for Sunday, so the Lions will be at full strength in Denver.  I know I shouldn’t bet against the lord himself, but for some reason I don’t expect divine intervention to kick in this week like it did last week. The Lions are an all around better team and they should beat the Broncos.

Colts +9 at the Titans - The Titans aren’t this impressive.  I actually think the huge money line bet on the Colts is worth a few bucks.  They are trying to get out of my Jive Five.

Tebowing- Verb ; to get down on a knee and start praying, even if everyone else around you is doing something completely different.

You've heard of planking and all the deaths related to the jackass's doing it on a railing 7 stories up? Not only is planking SOOOOOOO two months ago... it's also detrimental to your health. Get with the program and start Tebowing!

Surgeon General recommends you "Tebow" at least 3 times a day for men 18 and older. I actually have to get my afternoon Tebowing in now before lunch.  Check it out!  http://tebowing.com/

The next verb I envision coming from Tebow land is Tebowning: When one aims to bag the girls that Tebow leaves behind because he is still a virgin. 

We know she is going home alone!

Hammer Time for the 49ers

MC Hammer was a guest speaker at the San Franscisco 49ers practice on Tuesday. Per a 49ers spokesperson, Hammer who has sold more than 50 million records worldwide talked to the team about dealing with the "trials and tribulations" of being famous. We are not sure if Hammer gave any financial advice to the team on how to blow a multi-million dollar fortune however.

Some of the 49er players hit up Twitter to thank the Bay area rapper:


What is really more interesting with Hammer is his new found beef with Jay-Z.
In Kanye West's “So Appalled" Jay-Z rhymes "Hammer went broke, so you know I’m more focused/I lost 30 mil’, so I spent another 30/’Cause unlike Hammer, 30 million can’t hurt me." Well, King Hammer has come back at Jay and released a diss track and video at Hova accusing him of consorting with Satan and with some over weight dude dressed up as Jay-Z. Take a look:

T.O. gets contract offer from the Chicago Rush!

There were no NFL teams at Terrell Owens workout this week, but I have confirmed there were 2 other professional football teams from Chicago in attendance - The Chicago Rush and The Chicago Bliss.  AND... The Rush of the Arena league have extended T.O. a contract offer for the 2012 season. 

“We feel that this is an ideal time to approach the future NFL Hall of Famer,” said Rush General Manager and President Gene Nudo. “It would be a fantastic honor to add Terrell to our current roster for the 2012 season.”

T.O., with 156 career touchdowns in the NFL should consider this offer because even after injury, he may be able to put up 156 touchdowns this year in the Arena League.  The other team in attendance, the 0-2 Chicago Bliss is in the Lingerie League and they told me they didn't offer T.O. a contract because he would be the 4th best receiver on their squad.  Those girls must be AMAZING!

He's DMC and he's Serious! Seriously?

There is a bunch of this crap hip hop from Dexter McCluster on youtube, but this is the best!  I know its a bit old and played out - but I still needed to share it.  I guess the good intention was there, but when you are Dexter and you hear it back you have to cut your losses and save yourself from the ridicule.  Two Thoughts -DMC was in RUN DMC, not on the Cheifs and stop trying to be like Little Wayne, so you can focus on keeping free from little sprains!

Tim Tebow Terrible Rap Video

In a rap video that makes Vanilla Ice look like Styles P, a group of musically challenged fans from Denver have created a rap song for GOD's son Tim Tebow. "Super Fan" which is a parody of Niki Minaj's "Super Bass" takes white rapping to a new low of awkwardness. Can’t wait until the P. Diddy remix on this one! This would never happen in New York, and if it did we would have a real MC dropping the lyrics.

Cheerleader of the Week - Jaime Hanna

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Cheerleaders Jaime Hanna is not only hot, she is date the local star baseball player hot (She has been out with Evan Longoria).  The 5^th year member of the Bucs squad  is an aspiring dental hygienist – teeth cleaning anyone?  Her favorite movies include Dirty Dancing, The Notebook and Sex and The City, which proves she is fully into men and her spontaneity probably makes her a load of fun to be around.  Here’s to you Jaime Hanna – One super sexy girl and our Cheerleader of the Week!

Scholar's WWT Pick-ups for Week 8

Sam Bradford - QB Rams - Ok I admit the likelihood of Bradford being available in your league is small. I try each and every week to name at least one player from each position that has a very high likelihood of being available on waivers in your league. I own Bradford in 2 leagues and thankfully I've had a starter I could rely on. Some owners may not have the patience and may have been forced to drop him due to injury or bye week issues. With the addition of Brandon Lloyd and the immenent return of Mark Clayton, I see Bradford as great waiver addition or buy-low candidate if he is already owned in your league. When he comes back from this ankle, I won't be surprised to see his numbers tick up and start to look like last year. If Orton can have decent fantasy value in a Josh McDaniels offense throwing to Lloyd, I'm excited to see what Bradford can do. If he isn't owned in your league he takes priority over T.O. making him YOUR P.O.W. I couldn't make him the official P.O.W. but I love his upside when he returns.

Roy Helu - RB Redskins - Certainly one of the most impactful fantasy stories of the weekend was the season ending injury to Tim Hightower. He had surrendered some work to Ryan Torain in the previous weeks so most people may assume he is the best Washington RB to own going forward. I disagree. Torain has talent but the dude can't stay upright. It's a matter of time before he's on the injury report or in street clothes on the sideline. Which will turn Roy Helu from fantasy dud to fantasy stud in a matter of weeks. I anticiapte the Skins will add a body or two for depth but not a name that will threaten the looks that Torain and Helu will see. And when Torain gets nicked up, Helu will be there for you to plug in to your lineup making Roy Helu my P.O.W. (Pickup Of the Week) for week 8. Normally I put a pic up of my POW but I couldn't resist the allure that is the T.O. show.

Terrell Owens - WR Free Agent - Git yer popcorn ready!!!! The TO show will be playing at a theatre near you. Father time has had trouble catching up with Mr. Owens... it's not fair... he doesn't have any teammates... he doesn't have any quaterback! But he will soon. Rumors abound today, but depending on his landing spot he could be the missing link in your roster. Forget last year, you saw what Carson Palmer looked like on Sunday, Palmer was the problem last year not T.O. Add Terrell Owens and hope he signs with a team that not only is pass happy but will be trailing early and often.

Visanthe Shiancoe - TE Vikings - Christian Ponder looks legit in his first NFL start. Granted it isn't the toughest secondary to face but I think the score would have been way more lopsided if McNabb was under center. McNabb is done as a starter in this league. I can think of a couple of teams where he may be an upgrade but even that is a stretch. Which means that ALL the Vikings offensive players get an upgrade. Rook's usually look to the underneath routes when the pressure is on and that mean Shiancoe could be a top 10 TE from this point on. If you drafted a stud TE and they have let you down, or your starter was bit by the injury bug, Visanthe Shiancoe is your man. He seems to be a streaky player and I feel a hot-streak coming on for him.

POW by week (no reason for waivers suggestions for Week 1 as you just drafted your team)

W2 - Nick Novack
W3 - Antonio Brown
W4 - Stevan Ridley
W5 - Tim Tebow
W6 - Greg Little

W7 - (Scholar had a bye week - he was away on his honeymoon)

W8 - Roy Helu

The Jive and Live Five – Week 7

The Jive Five

28.   Vikings – Flashes of greatness from Christian Ponder, superstar play from Jared Allen – These guys won’t be here long.

29.   Cardinals – Kevin Kolb seems to have been a bad decision, they are slobbing Kolb!

30.   Dolphins – Up 15-0 with 3 minutes versus the Broncos, and they get a back slap from god himself!  There is no stopping Divine intervention.

31.   Rams – When you thought it couldn’t get any worse, Sam Bradford goes down with an injury. On the bright side, they should get a high draft pick to help out on offense.

32    Colts – Not sure what #5 means to this chick, but I am sure she didn’t paint the number on her body because Kerry Collins wears it.  Maybe it’s the number of dudes she hooked up with this weekend because of the Colts 62-7 loss to the Saints, either way its super hot.  What is not hot is her messy room!  What a slob!

Out of Jive - Jaguars

The Live Five

1.      Packers – Only undefeated team left and winter is approaching, now go try to beat them in Lambeau.

2.      Patriots – Pats, Pats, Pats…  Looks like a 13-3 year or better is inevitable.

3.     49ers – With Cleveland coming into town, looks like the Niners will keep rolling.

4.     Saints – 62-7, nuff said.   

5.      Steelers – Slow start, but Big Ben and the boys are back to their winning ways.

Out of Live – Lions, Ravens 

Gronkowski Fumbles with Porn Star

During the Patriots bye week, tight end Rob Gronkowski headed back to Arizona where he played college ball and was chillen with porn star BiBi Jones. Jones who is pictured above hanging with Gronkowski and rocking his jersey went on the Toucher and Rich show on 98.5 The Sports Hub Monday morning and said that Gronkowski "wanted me to get him more Twitter followers". BiBi who stars in such classics as Naughty Nanny 3, Babysitters 2, and Amateur Action has 100,000 Twitter followers to Gronkowski's 58,000. Unfortunately Jones and Gronkowski did not film any movies together as BiBi stated "nothing happened", "I wish something happened, but nothing happened", "I really, really, really wish it would have happened". Way to play hard to get BiBi!!!

Jones also went on to say that she has bagged Atlanta Braves second baseman Dan Uggla and Phoenix Coyotes tough guy Paul Bissonnette, and a host of married professional athletes.

B.J. the Greek - Monday Night Pick

Ravens -9.5 at Jaguars
Buying the 1/2 point for -120. Jacksonville is 0-4 WL and 1-3 ATS since Blaine Gabbert took over as their starting QB. The Jaguars are averaging just 13 ppg as well under Gabbert. LOVING the Ravens D coupled with Monday Night Football jitters from Gabbert. Ravens leading the NFL in D, only giving up 14 ppg and they have played much better offenses than what Jaguars break the huddle with. The Ravens are 5-2 in their last seven as road favorites. Expect a big game from Flacco tonight. He has not looked great this year, and I am expecting him to hit for some big plays tonight. Ray Rice will see the end zone a couple of times, which is becoming the norm for him. Dont see how the Jaguars score more that 10 points. Ravens 27, Jaguars 9.
(Ravens 4-1 WL, 4-1 ATS) (Jaguars 1-5 WL, 2-4 ATS)

* B.J. the Greek was 3-1 ATS in yesterday NFL games.

Tim Tebow for President!

With his popularity rising quickly, it’s only a matter of time before Tim Tebow forgets about football and runs for the highest office in land – President of the United States of America!

Mr. Tebow, AKA Mr. Magic Man, AKA Mr. I Can Do No Wrong, AKA Mr. Tim Sheen – WINNING!  He already has ample practice kissing babies, a virginal clean cut image and more fans than the Pope – should make him a shoo in for executive office.   Using his anti-6-6-6 tax plan, he will obliterate all opponents. I expect Urban Meyer to be his running mate, which means watch out Mitt Romney – Tim Tebow is coming! (for the first time ever!) It's the blue Crocks!

The Colts get CRUSHED on SNF - Note to Colt Fans.

After a 62-7 beat down by the Saints, we could only find one guy who still thought the Colts actually had a defense and that they were the #1 team!  Like you, we are questioning his mental capacity.

Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 31 of 35 passes in the victory and had 325 yards and 5 touchdowns!  Perfection is his middle name, actually its Christopher – but who really cares.

For you Colt Fans, it cannot get worse than a 55 point loss and a 0-7 start, but here are a few things to look forward to in the next 10 months.

1.       Getting Peyton Manning back – This guy seems to be worth 10-12 wins all by himself, he is the most valuable player in a team sport since Eddie Gaedel.  

2.       Drafting Andrew Luck – Having him learn under Peyton Manning would be like a modern day Plato being taught by Socrates' equivalent.

3.       Getting a Win – Colt fans have been spoiled with 10 plus win seasons for many years. Sucks to be 0-7, but when you get that first win after this losing streak it is going to be like a crack heads first hit of crack after withdrawal.   Sit back and enjoy it!

4.       Drunk/Depressed Female Fans – Always looking for a warm shoulder to cry on.

5.       Training Camp – Since 2011 is a no-show, start planning for 2012 – Peyton’s comeback year!

TJ Lang gets kicked in the NUTS!

In a surprisingly close game Vikings defensive end Brian Robison decided to take a cheap shot at the Packers TJ Lang that his bladder will not forget anytime soon.  Robison received a penalty for unnecessary roughness for putting the crack on Mr. Langs Schwang and caused his team 15 important yards in their 33-27 loss yesterday.  Ouch!

B.J. the Greek Week 7 Picks + W.O.W!

WAG of the Week is Anna Burns. Burns was Miss Hooters International 2005 and is currently dating Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker. She a hottie!!! The Greek loves the brunettes!!!


Jets +3 vs. Chargers
Buying a point for -140. As mentioned last week, all three Jets losses this year have been on the road against three teams that will be in the playoffs this year (Ravens, Raiders, Patriots). I like that Rex Ryan is going to start LaDanian Tomlinson against the his former team that cut him in 2009. No WAY am I trusting Norv Turner and the Chargers as road favorites against the Jets with a 1pm start at Met Life Stadium. A lot of value getting the Jets plus a field goal at home. This is the week that we see a big games from Burress and Holmes.
(Jets 3-3 WL, 2-4 ATS) (Chargers 4-1 WL, 2-3 ATS)

Seahawks +4 at Colts
Buying a point for -155. Prefer Charlie Whitehurst at QB over Tarvaris Jackson. Seattle went into Met Life Stadium two weeks ago as 10 point under dogs and beat the Giants straight up. Seattle is just 3-9 ATS on the road under Pete Carroll. What we like here, is how bad the Browns are. Colt McCoy is not good, i'm not sure why people think he is an NFL starter? He is a back up. The Browns have no weapons at receiver, and Peyton Hillis is showing why I passed on him in every fantasy league draft I had this year. Can you say Madden curse! The Browns are 0-7 ATS in their last seven home games. The Greek LOVES the Seahawks and the points.

Broncos +3 at Dolphins
Buying a point for -140. Did anyone see Matt More play on Monday night? There are college football teams that he would not be able to start on. Miami will pull out all the stops to lose this one while on their SUCK 4 LUCK campaign. Sun Life stadium is honoring the Florida Gators national championship team that Tim Tebow played for with "Gator Appreciation Day". How are the 0-5 Dolphins and Matt Moore going to act when the home fans are cheering Tebow and the Broncos? NOT GOOD!!! Miami is 5-18 ATS in their last 23 home games. Tim Tebow aint losing in the state of Florida, GOD is watching over him!!!

Packers -9 at Vikings
-9? I thought I was looking at the first half line!!! Minnesota is TERRIBLE. Green Bay will stop Peterson and expect safe conservative play calls for Christian Ponder the rookie from FSU that is making his first start of his career. Packers 26-10 since 2009 ATS, 5-1 this year. The Vikings will not be able to trade scores with the Pack. Looking at a 31-16 final score.
(Packers 6-0 WL, 5-1 ATS) (Vikings 1-5 WL, 2-3-1 ATS)

Last Week: 4-0
W Packers (-14) Total mismatch, the Rams are terrible.
W Eagles (-150 ML) Eagles needed this win, and they got it. Rex Grossman was... Rex Grossman.
W Falcons (-180 ML) Falcons needed this win, and they got it. For all the Cam hype, the Panthers are still just 1-5.
W Jets (-5.5) We loved this game! Dolphins are terrible.

Fake Referee Streaks & Fight Breaks Out! + College Picks

Check out the FAKE official 4 seconds into the clip as he blows a whistle to stop the game, then tries to huddle up with the officials, and asks for the ball. As soon as the officials realize he is fake, the dude runs away and starts streaking! What is even better is that a FIGHT breaks out between Arizona who was blowing UCLA out 42-7 in the second quarter! At 2:43 #15 of Arizona really exemplifies what the student athlete is all about as he busts into some type of cript walk to excite the home crowd. At 4:06 you can catch the streaker running by as the brawl is still going on. Oh yeah, both these teams SUCK as Arizona is 2-5 and UCLA is 3-4.

Wisconsin -7 at Michigan State
-130 buying down a point. The Badgers have way too much firepower, Spartans will NOT be able to trade points. Wisconsin's QB Russell Wilson leads the NCAA in pass efficiency and has been on point all year long leading the Badgers to BLOWOUT, after BLOWOUT wins. Stud RB's Montee Ball and James White will wear down the Michigan State defense. And we always love a coach like Brett Bielema who loves to run the score up! The Badgers are averaging 50 points a game on the year! Wisconsin is on a 12-1 roll ATS since the middle of last year.
(Wisconsin 6-0 WL, 5-1 ATS) (Michigan State 4-1 WL, 4-1 ATS)

Kansas State -10 at Kansas
-130 buying down a point. K-State returning to the late 90's glory days under head coach Bill Snyder. Currently ranked 11th in the BCS polls that came out this week. Snyder is 13-1 WL and ATS all time against the Jayhawks. The Wildcats CRUSHED Kansas last year 59-7. Snyder is another coach that LOVES to run the score up. Jayhawks giving up 49 ppg this year. Very impressed with Wildcats QB Klein and Hubert running the ball.
(Kansas State 5-0 WL, 5-0 ATS) (Kansas 1-4 WL, 2-3 ATS)

UTEP -6 vs. Colorado State
-130 buying down a point. CSU is 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games, 3-11 ATS in their last 14 road games, and 7-17 ATS in their last 24 games overall. As predicted last week, Boise State CRUSHED the Rams 63-13, in route to cover the -32. UTEP has a stud running back in Banyard who has 11 td's in 6 games and is averaging 6.3 ypc. The Rams are bad, and we like UTEP to cover by more than at td at home against a BAD CSU team.
(UTEP 3-3 WL, 5-1 ATS) (Colorado State 3-3 WL, 1-5 ATS)

Nebraska -23 at Minnesota
-130 buying down a point. Minnesota is TERRIBLE!!! The last two weeks, Michigan steam rolled them 58-0, and a weak Purdue team crushed them 45-17. Nebraska is a work in progress on offense, but Blackshirt D will DOMINATE. The Golden Gophers will be lucky if they score. Bo Pelini 10-5 as a road favorite as Nebraska's head coach.
(Nebraska 5-1 WL, 1-5 ATS) (Minnesota 1-5 WL, 2-4 ATS)

Northern Illinois -13.5 at Buffalo
-130 buying down a point. Northern Illinois CRUSHED Buffalo last year 45-14, and the spread was about the same (-14). We expect them to duplicate that performance this year. NIU has scored 40+ points in 6 of 7 games this year. NIU has covered their last two in impressive fashion 40-10 over Kent State, and 51-22 as a two point underdog to Western Michigan. Buffalo was spanked last week 34-0 by Temple. NIU is going to run all over the Bulls.
(Northern Illinois 4-3 WL, 3-4 ATS) (Buffalo 2-5 WL, 4-3 ATS)

LT to Start Against the Chargers

LaDainian Tomlinson will make his first start of the season against his former team the San Diego Chargers this Sunday. LT was the fifth overall pick in the 2001 draft, and playing for the Chargers he became an All-Pro running back and was the 2006 NFL MVP. That year he set NFL record with 31 touchdowns. In 2009 the Chargers cut Tomlinson. LT signed with the Jets as a free agent before last season. “I’m not a guy who holds grudges or tries to prove anyone wrong,” Tomlinson stated. “I don’t have time for that. It’s nonsense. “I had a great nine years there and I don’t want to make it more than it is.” Rex Ryan is the MAN though for starting LT! While LT will take the high road and say all the right things, we KNOW he is still PISSED that the Chargers cut him. Hopefully LT will find the end zone this week because the B.J. the Greek loves the Jets this week as home underdogs.

Raider Games Banned From Bar!

Cabo Cantina a bar in Venice, California has banned the showing of Raider games due to "continuing incidents involving certain groups of Raider fans". Beer Mug Sports gave the Cantina a call and spoke with a lovely bartender named Lindsay. Lindsay informed us that the Raider games are in fact banned from the bar due to "disrespectful Raider fans". She stated it all came to a head when during the Raiders vs. Patriots game in week 4, there was a "fight at the bar" between the two fan bases. She further explained that on a weekly basis the Raider fans at the Cantina are "disrespectful, rude, and yell and threaten fans of other teams". Cabo Cantina looks like a pretty cool place to watch a game per their website pics.
Too bad Raider Nation can't watch Carson Palmer make his first start this Sunday there!!! Raiders offensive coordinator Al Saunders on Kansas City's 610 Sports Radio stated that “As long as he’s breathing”, Palmer will start this Sunday.

Jerome Harrison/Ronnie Brown Deal Voided because Harrison has a Brain Tumor!

Ronnie Brown was sent back to the Eagles yesterday because Jerome Harrison's physical and MRI revealed a tumor. If he wasn't traded on Tuesday, this tumor may never have been found. Us at Beer Mug Sports hope everything works out for Jerome and he has a full recovery! In the meantime, Ronnie is stuck on the dream team for 2011.

*We originally posted a pic of an MRI photo but cant validate it's authenticity at this time, so we removed it.. 

Guru - Week 7 Picks

The Guru went 2-1 last week to bring my season to 6-9, still crappy but creeping back to respectability.

Here are my Week 7 picks:

Steelers -3.5 at the Cardinals - Since the Steelers don't have cheerleaders, this guy took it upon himself to represent the craft!  Terrible, but funny - all joking aside, the Steelers are rolling, while the Cardinals are floundering.  I expect the Steelers to win in a blow out.

Packers -9 @ the Vikings - The best offense in the league vs. an offense run by a rookie quarterback in his first start.  I expect Christian to have a bunch of Ponders and Mistakes as the Pack runs away with the cover victory in Minny.

Denver +2 @ the Dolphins - Miami sucks. Plus - Brandon Marshall couldn't even get kicked out of the game he promised to get kicked out of...  Tebow wins the away home game.

Jay Cutler tells Martz "F*ck Him!

Mike Martz is a D*ck, in fact he may be the biggest d*ck in the NFL, but to curse him when a camera is pointed in your face on SNF?  Straight GANGSTA! 

LeSean McCoy Punches Andy Reid

Andy Reid gets no respect! After making a first down run in Sunday's win over the Redskins, the Eagles LeSean McCoy celebrates by punching his head coach Andy Reid right in his FAT GUT! Good thing Andy was able to hold down the SIX cheesesteaks that he ate at halftime. That would have been a messy sideline clean up.

T.O., Batman, Cry Baby.. what ever you call him, He's Back!

 

@RosenhausSports Drew Rosenhaus

I just watched Terrell (Owens) go through a full football workout and he looked awesome! He is 100% healthy & ready to play right now!

@RosenhausSports Drew Rosenhaus

I will be contacting the teams today to inform them that is immediately available to visit and work out for them. He could play this Sunday!

Drew Rosenhaus made the above comments on Twitter a short while ago. Its going to nice to see Terrell give it one more shot in the NFL.  Also good for him, because he has had the follow stupid face on since he got hurt. Needs to shake that off.  After this final hurrah, expect to only see T.O. on shows like Dancing With The Stars, Celebrity Apprentice and Celebrity Rehab.

I can see the Raiders trading their last 2 2012 draft picks for him. Why?  Just because!

Week 7 - Cheerleader(s) of the week! WOW!

22 year old Twin Jewish Pre-med students Michelle and Rachel Lewis are both on the Texans Cheerleading squad! Talk about a score!

Both are clinical research assistants in the Houson area, which makes me want to think of something that needs to be clinically researched.

Rachel thinks her best attribute is her humor and loves the movie "Coming to America"...  so one of us clowns may have a chance!

Check out our girl in game day action, super hot!  No wonder Andre Johnson likes to score so much!

Thinking of  the Guru..

Shonn Green trucks Umpire during MNF!

Umps are in the worst possible spot, they should get hazard pay - maybe a 20% differential over the other refs.  They moved them last year to protect them, but moved them back this year.  After seeing this video, there is no doubt in my mind that there will be an umpire who will be seriously hurt one of these days, I wouldn't insure them.

Steve Young still has it!

Check out Steve Young behind Rick Reilly on this segment from Monday night.  He can still move and sling the ball, looks like he still has it.  It's nice to see the hall of famer prancing around like the old days, making tosses in a suit! Maybe he should try out for the Dolphins, because Matt Moore isn't cutting it. 

Christian Ponder to Start for the Vikings

Move over Donovan McNabb, the new starting quarterback in Minnesota is Christian Ponder. This is the second year in a row that McNabb has been benched for another QB, I wonder if he will ever get another chance. The Vikings are terrible, this only cements that fact. Speaking of cement, Ponders Girlfriend Kacie McDonnell is known for making dudes pitch cement tent posts when encountered. Must be nice to be Christian.

The Season Savior has Arrived!

From the worst team in the NFL to the most dirty! Carson Palmer is now a Raider and he is ready to save their season! Pick him up if you can, the clock is ticking!

Waiver Wire Tuesday - WWT Week 7

Alex Smith (QB - SF) – We know he is on a bye but if you need depth at quarterback, Alex is putting up a decent numbers for the 5-1 49ers, 1090 yards, 9 total TD and only 2 picks.  Seems like the former QB Jim Harbaugh finally has the kid on the right track.  They have a VERY easy schedule, so he may become valuable to some of you guys as the season progresses.

Donald Brown (RB - IND) – He is definitely available in your league and if you need an emergency start this week because of injury or bye week issues, he may be your best option.  Not a long term hold, but if Addai is out he should put up a few points for your squad.

Arrelious Benn (WR – TB) – He has only caught 15 balls this year for 243 yards, but he had a breakout game last week versus the Saints.  Josh Freeman has been terrible, but also seems to be turning it around.  If you are thin at WR take a flyer on this kid, he has talent and may get his numbers to 900 and 7 by the end of the year.

Delanie Walker (TE - SF) - Another bye week pick-up, sorry.  But if you need help at TE, this may be your guy.  He has 3 TD in 6 games, which puts him on pace for 10 on the year. That would have led the league for TE’s in 2010.  Not to shabby.

Carson Palmer (QB - OAK) - Trade may happen today to bring Palmer to the Raiders. If so, PICK HIM UP!  PICK UP OF THE WEEK!

The Jive and Live Five – Week 6

The Jive Five

28.   Jaguars –This team should just move to L.A.

29.   Cardinals –Larry Fitzgerald got his contract, but that’s all he got.  Kurt Warner’s phone is ringing.

30.   Colts – Painter may be painting a life size portrait of Andrew Luck for Jim Irsay.

31.   Rams – The pick up of Brandon Lloyd should help this useless receiving corps, if Sam Bradford can get healthy they may step it up.

32    Dolphins - Matt Moore should change his name to Matt Less.  Good thing the Dolphin fans have girls like this to make life a bit more enjoyable during these rough times.

The Live Five

1.      Packers – Aaron Rodgers has lived up to his billing.  Will be top 3 overall fantasy pick in 2012 if he keeps it up.

2.      Ravens – Next three are Jags, Cardinals and Seahawks.  I don’t see them losing.

3.     Patriots – The Cowboys played them tough, but Brady was Brady again in the final 2 minutes.  

4.     49ers -  Jim Harbaugh may get this team to 13-3 and have a first round bye in the playoffs.  Amazing being they did NOTHING during the off season.

5.      Lions – I am convinced that the Lions lost Sunday’s game because the Booty Lounge was impounded.  Free the Booty Lounge!
