T.O. HAS FUN ON COMEDY CENTRAL

Going along with more video clips that are entertaining, here is a clip from the new Comedy Central show, Tosh O.

It's good that T.O. can poke fun at himself, as well as Windows Vista, Joe Buck, ESPN Sportscenter, etc.

Enjoy!

T.O. LANDS IN BUFFALO

I wouldn't usually post about this but I really like to piss people off. That and baseball is kinda slow and I just can't get into it when I can't watch the Sox on tv (or hear about them winning). Because football is my favorite sport, anything (positive) that focuses on my favorite $%#*-up team is big news, at least to me.

So Terrell Owens landed in Buffalo, began going to camp, and was awarded the key to the city by the Mayor. Although there are nay-sayers who think that T.O. will be a bust, I think that secretly these nay-sayers are excited to see what he can do. That or even excited to see what he can't do so that they can say "I told you so." Regardless, this is probably the biggest thing that has hit Buffalo since the all mighty early 90s clan that could only take them so far.

I am one Bills fan that is excited that T.O. will be playing for the Bills this season. Yes, it's only one year, and yes, he's had antics on every other team he's played on, but who cares? As long as he can run and catch and make touchdowns, and sometimes make ridiculous dances and make fun of Bill Belichick than I'm happy. And the upside is that T.O. is going to have his own reality tv show this season. So maybe all of this antics that are seen every year will be exhausted for his tv audiences and wont happen on the field (except when making fun of Bill Belichik).

No one actually knows what is going to happen this season until this season is underway. Hell, we don't even know what the outcome of the season is going to be until halfway through the season at least. I would love for T.O. to play spectacularly and make all the critics shut up. But even if T.O. plays exceptionally well, there's no telling how the rest of the team will perform, and it's definitely not fair to judge the ability of a team based on one wide receiver. So for now I leave you with some optimism, as well as this video clip.

GOOD RIDDANCE

And I mean it. The Buffalo Bills have officially struck a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles to trade left tackle Jason Peters.

Over the past couple of years, Peters has been causing problems for the Bills, not showing up to practice or games due to holding out for more money. No offense Peters, but you aren't that good to be paying millions of dollars for, even if there is a pay limit in the NFL. And now that the Bills have acquired T.O. (yes it came up, don't have a cow man) they already chose the man they are giving the big bucks up to. But I think it's more to do with the fact that Peters thinks he's better than he really is, and continues to hold out for more dough. I don't understand why he keeps getting chosen as a Pro Bowler. Just because he's one of the biggest guys in the NFL doesn't mean he's the best at what he does. How many times in one game do we Bill fans hear, "False Start. Number 71." Then the depressing amount of yard loss.

Philadelphia Eagles took Peters in return for their 28th pick in the NFL draft, as well as their fourth round draft pick. When this was just a rumor, it was said that the Bills would be seeking the first and third round draft picks. Though the Bills got one of the picks they were looking for, I guess they thought Peters was better than he actually is too. At least in trading terms. Maybe Peters will take over for Dawkins as the leader of the Eagles song, dancing and flapping around. Somehow, I have a feeling it just wouldn't look the same.

TOP TEN (LETTERMAN STYLE) TAKE ON VOLUNTARY CAMP PRACTICE

The newest big hoopla about T.O. is him not showing up to the voluntary practice camp the Buffalo Bills began yesterday. When I first heard the news, I was not really interested, I mean who would want to go to a voluntary training camp? I know he seems egotistical already, but I wouldn't go because I would be way too lazy. But that's why I don't play sports...

Anyway, I found this at www.buffalorumblings.com and thought it was pretty funny.
Enjoy:

"In true Letterman fashion, the Buffalo Rumblings community presents the TOP TEN REASONS T.O. IS A NO-SHOW!

#10. T.O. is currently recovering from an emergency tonsillectomy after a rogue popcorn hull lodged itself in his throat.

#9. T.O. still can't believe that he actually signed with the Bills. He decided not to show up in case he dreamed the whole thing.

#8. T.O. is currently finalizing plans to co-star with Jeff Garcia in a reality television show entitled 'Little T mocks a jobless former teammate'. (Garcia: "Hey, it pays.")

#7. T.O. is busy stealing all 'HARDY 81' jerseys from Buffalo-area merchandise stores and coloring out the name with a Sharpie he pulled out of his sock.

#6. T.O. and Randy Moss are recuperating thumb injuries after having a 'txt war' over which receiver is the 'real 81'.

#5. T.O. is making his way around the US auditioning blond celebrity girlfriends for Trent Edwards.

#4. T.O. is currently working out with nearly half of Buffalo's roster in his driveway. They can't imagine where the hell that Trent Edwards is, but boy, is that guy a bad teammate.

#3. T.O. was under the impression that the Bills practiced once per year in Toronto. Hearing news that Toronto now wants a second game, he stayed in Canada. Just in case.

#2. T.O. forgot to set the alarm in his hyperbaric chamber.

#1. T.O. thought voluntary workouts were voluntary."

DID YOU CELEBRATE MANNING DAY?

I definitely didn't because I didn't know that this "holiday" existed. As where I get most of my sports-news-related stories, I checked out MJD's blog on Yahoo! Sports. He couldn't have put it any better than myself:

"I need a new calendar. This thing I have right now lists a bunch of unimportant holidays like St. Patrick's Day, Arbor Day, Independence Day and Christmas, but it made absolutely no mention of "Manning Day", and now, the moment has passed."

I know I am excited to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! But if I had known about Manning Day before it actually occurred, it would have given me enough time to prepare jokes and snide remarks about this random holiday. Everyone knows who the Mannings are; if you don't you're a woman completely oblivious to sports (I can be sexist), or you live under a rock. However, just because you know these people are famous doesn't mean we need a holiday for them. I'm not a fan of the Colts or the Giants. I think Eli's IQ is maybe equivalent to one of the dodo birds that used to inhabit the earth, and their father (I heard) wasn't exactly an all star player. Mediocre is a good term, right Pat? Anyway, it just so happens that the Mannings are a football fanatic family. Say that ten times fast. To get anywhere in life it really helps to know people, and if you're father, or brother, have already made it to the NFL, well then you must really fit in too!

As far as the events of the holiday go, it wasn't much to even make fun of. There was a small ceremony and people got autographs from the Manning clan. Maybe if I was a Colts/Giants/old Saints fan, I would have jumped for this type of chance to get an autograph. But I'm not. I have my own deams of T.O. making some big plays for the Bills instead.

I guess if there had to be a Manning Day, it should be for Peyton Manning. That guy really cracks me up. He's a pretty good ball player, and he makes the best commercials. What more can a football watching gal ask for? I don't see Tom Brady making funny commercials. Or any commercials. He's too busy trying to model... good luck with that Tom.

To conclude on a funny note, MJD really knows how to strike a funny bone:
"Had I known, I'd have celebrated like any good Manning-fearing American ... by dressing up as my favorite Manning (I prefer Olivia) and licking the middle of Oreo cookies until my tongue bleeds."

If you don't find that funny, you either don't watch enough t.v. or your IQ is too high (So Eli must be on the floor dying!).

SISTER OR IMPOSTOR? YOU DECIDE

Well Well, besides T.O. getting his own reality show, it seems as though the NFL has even more drama. According to the Shutdown Corner at Yahoo! Sports the recent Hall of Famer, Bob Hayes, has a fraud for a sister. Literally.

The sister, Lucille Hester, spoke on behalf of her late brother, Hayes, who was being inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. At the news conference, Hester read aloud a letter that Hayes had supposedly written in 1999, three years before his died. However, there is evidence in this letter that points to Hester being a fraud, as well as being a bad speller. The name of the QB, Staubach, was spelled incorrectly in the thank you letter.

Okay, so let's all agree that this woman is a fraud. Why is she trying to get into the spotlight for this? Did she try when he was alive? Apparently Hayes' ex-wife and some of his siblings are denying that they are related to this woman. However, apparently no one has figured out how to look up family trees or censuses or anything of that nature. It can't be impossible to figure this out.

In my opinion, this woman is probably not his sister. But I am still stumped as to why should would want to choose Hayes' as her relative to share the spotlight with. It could be that he is long gone so he couldn't say whether or not she was a fraud or not. But if I wanted to get into the spotlight, I would pick a more prominent sports figure of today that is alive, well, and filthy rich. Why can't she pose as T.O.'s long lost aunt? Why not pick Michael Jordan, or now that the Steelers won another Super Bowl, I would probably feed off having one of those players be my relative some how.

Actually, I should let the world know that Bruce Smith, who has also just been introduced to the Pro Football Hall of Fame is my long lost uncle. Seriously! Can't you see the resemblance?
Fine, if you don't believe that one, will you believe that Jim Kelly is my father? Trent Edwards is my cousin twice removed, and unfortunately, Tony Romo is the black sheep of my family as the cousin who was dropped on the head as a baby. Either way, I better start going to press conferences with letters from them so I can cash in my well deserved paycheck!
