I love football. Nothing makes me happier than parking my butt on the couch on Sunday's, having the Red Zone Channel take me from game to game. I can literally sit on my couch from 11:00 am when the pregame activities start to the end of the Sunday night game, it's bad!!!

However what I can't find myself doing, even during these bleak dark times, is watch the NFL Combine on the NFL Network. I tried, believe me. I guess if you like watching guys in tight spandex outfits run 40 yards at a time and jump as high as they can, then this event is for you. I'd be more interested in watching them take the wonderlic test and seeing how they score and react to the questions. 55 questions in 12 minutes.....seriously???? Can you imagine watching guys like Andre Smith (the offensive tackle from Alabama who left the Combine without telling anyone), Ray Maualuga (LB out of USC) or Vontae Davis (CB out of Illinois) answer the following questions:


John is a mechanic. He makes $8.50 an hour, plus $3 extra for every oil change he performs. Last week he worked 36 hours and performed 17 oil changes. How much money did he make?



A box of staples has a length of 6 cm, a width of 7 cm, and a volume of 378 cm cubed. What is the height of the box?



A basketball player averaged 20 points a game over the course of six games. His scores in five of those games were 23, 18, 16, 24, and 27. How many points did he score in the sixth game?


Now that would be appointment television. So the draft is only a few months away, then we have rookie mini-camps, followed by regular mini-camps and of course training camp before the preseason starts. You'll have plenty of opportunities to get your fix in before that first Thursday night game. Enjoy the "off-season"......

Super Comcast Porn

I was going to save my Superbowl post for tomorrow, but this one is just too good to pass up.....

You're hanging with your friends consuming large amounts of wings and beer, you just watched Larry Fitzgerald scamper 64 yards for the go-ahead TD when a celebration erupts, just not the kind you expected. Comcast subscribers in Tucson, AZ had their Superbowl feed switched to a 30 second porn clip of a women sitting on a couch trying to pull out a mans "package". She struggles, the man jumps up, drops his pants and shakes and slaps "it" against her body. Just as you're getting excited and ready for the climax, you are switched back to the game and get a different kind of climax (the Pittsburgh Steelers driving down the field for the game winning TD).

Obviously Comcast is investigating the situation and although it appears to be an isolated act, it looks as though it was a deliberate act by one of its employees. They are offering a whopping $5 credit to all of its subscribers...............I guess that's what 30 seconds of porn is going for these days. Seriously, you just can't make this stuff up even if you tried.....
