This very well could be the most overused phrase in sports.
It’s also the #1 goal of every NFL player when he steps onto the football field. When they slip on their pads, uniform, and helmet in the locker room, they know nothing else. This mantra is what propels these athletes to relinquish all accessible firepower […]

Playoffs. Pride. Perfection.
One of these or a combination of the three is the goal for each of the NFL teams this weekend as this 2007 NFL season hangs up its “CLOSED” sign.
There are a couple of teams that control their own destiny if they want to play in January as they must win in order […]

When Sean Taylor died on November 27th, the Washington Redskins season went into a tailspin.
They had just lost their third straight game two days prior to Tampa and were sitting at 5-6 including a 1-3 record against their rivals in the NFC East which was being dominated by the Dallas Cowboys at 10-1. Five days […]

Personally, there’s nothing more aggravating than not reacting quick enough or simply misjudging a dip in the road and expecting to see your muffler in the rear view mirror laying in the middle of the road. The fact is that most depressions in the road are supposed to be there. They are designed to be […]

What a majestic weekend that lays before us! The spirit of Christmas is in high gear as families are wrapping up their shopping, touring neighborhoods looking for that “Griswold” house, baking, and setting up their fantasy football teams….ok, maybe that’s just me.
The spirit of the NFL playoffs is also boiling as several teams should find […]

My Dad taught us kids growing up that a gift should represent yourself. When you give it to someone, you are offering them a piece of yourself that you think will resonate with their own enthusiasms and pursuits.
He loves reading, music, and movies so, for his 60th birthday, we asked his friends and family to […]

I will say though that if you can’t feel the adrenaline and heat from the swelling and heated NFL playoff races by […]

As I was reading about last weekend’s high-octane games, a quote by LaDainian Tomlinson following the overtime victory over Tennessee exploded off the computer screen and circled back like a boomerang and hit me in the back of the head. He was asked by reporters if he thought LB Shawne Merriman’s injury was the result of a dirty […]

As an NFL fan, you’ve already felt your your blood stream through your veins at an abnormally fast pace when Sunday afternoons roll around. It’s the fact that anything can happen in any game on any Sunday that injects the adrenaline into your system as the hour hand approaches 12:00 noon.
Beginning night, you just might find […]

Sean Taylor. Adrian Peterson’s return. A JaMarcus Russell sighting in Oakland. San Diego remembered L.T. still played for them. Self-destruction demonstrations in New Orleans and Baltimore. Another soggy Pittsburgh win and an even more despondent state-of-affairs in Miami…again.
There was a lot happening in the NFL this weekend, but one can’t overlook what transpired in The Stadium Where […]
