More evidence Mike Singletary is insane

Insane in a good way though. In his head coaching debut, Singletary told a first round pick to head to the showers AND apparently pulled down his pants and mooned the team in the locker room at half time. After pulling down his pants he continued his halftime speech with his pants at his ankles.

You have to love this man. If Samurai Mike does not get this job, I will be surprised. What a debut!

Greatest football catch ever

This catch by Edwin Baptiste is the greatest football catch ever made. No doubt about it. There is no need for a top 10 list because this one would top it. Simply amazing.


There are no words to explain this catch. Parallel to the ground, one handed with his fingertips, tucks the ball, and finishes of with a somersault. WOW! Just wow.

East Carolina continues to wreak havoc against ACC

A week after beating #17 Virginia Tech, the Pirates did it again today beating #8 West Virginia who is the favorite to win the ACC in my book. These past two games were the toughest games on their schedule. East Carolina has two hard games the rest of this season NC State and Virginia who got absolutely demolished by USC. Mark my word, East Carolina will finish the season undefeated.

Get to know the name Louie Sakoda

University of Utah's Kicker/Punter Louie Sakoda is a name that you should get familiar with. In Utah's win over Michigan he hit a 53 yard field goal. The thing that made it spectacular was that the kick was so good it could have had a chance to make it from 60 yards out. Could he be the highest kicker ever taken in the draft?

Bigger bust (so far) Reggie Bush or Alex Smith?

The career of #1 pick Alex Smith hit a new low yesterday. J.T. O'Sullivan, who has been impressive in pre-season, has taken the starting QB position from Smith. Meanwhile, while rolling in all of his endorsement dough, Reggie Bush has yet to prove that he should be the starter. As you may remember, football fans (including me) were laughing at the Texans front office for picking Mario Williams at #1. Since then, Mario Williams has been the anchor of the Texan defense while Reggie Bush gets busy with Kim Kardashian. So I simply pose this question. Who has been the bigger bust so far? Reggie Bush, Heisman winner with endorsement deals and many thought should have been #1. Or Alex Smith the #1 pick that has played like a fourth round pick his entire career so far.

Let's take a look at the stats.

Reggie Bush (stats are average over career):
Rushing Yards: 573 yards
Rushing Y/Carry: 3.65 yards
Rushing TDs: 10 TDs
Receiving Yards: 579.5 yards
Receiving TDs: 2 TDs
Fumbles: 5 fumbles (he had 8 in the 2007 season)

Side note from good ole' Wikipedia. Reggie Bush is second to only Mr. Peyton Manning. Peyton will be hard to catch there. Bush has deals with: Pepsi, GM, Adidas, and Subway. Don't forget that deal he had with the car dealership at USC (allegedly).

Wearing a Nats hat. It all makes sense now.

Alex Smith (stats are average over career):

Completion %: 54.4% (48.7% in 2007 which is worst of career)
Passing Yards: 1559 yards
Passing TDs: 6 TDs
Interceptions: 10 ints.
Fumbles: 9 fumbles

I tend to think that Alex Smith is the bigger bust so far. He has had one more year than Bush to pull his act together. I could also be persuaded to go with Bush because of all of the hype and endorsements.


Who ya got? I always want to hear what you have to say. Drop you opinion in the comments.

(p.s: What a huge coincidence that they went to the same high school.)

Senaca Wallace crazy scramble

I am going out on a limb and calling this the greatest QB scramble ever.

It is a shame we don't get to see him more often as he is a back-up.

To Da House: Best Returns For TD Ever

10. Kevin Cobb- this one falls to the bottom because people thought he was down

9. Desean Jackson- this one also falls because he didn't really break tackles but is still amazing

8. Devin Hester-broke a few tackles gave a stiff arm and cut back in for the TD. Wow.

7. Brandon Tate- broke 4 tackles and took off

6. Darnell Blackman of (insert ESPN's "The Nation" line here)-this man does not stop moving his feet

5. Josh Cribbs- greatly made up for his mistake with this play

4. Dante Hall- like the Jackson play but got around a lot more people

3. Woodrow Dantzler- complete with a couple broken tackles and tight roping the sideline.

2. Darrelle Revis- bonus points for the big hit and surviving the end on the sideline

That last play was great and all, but the next one is RIDICULOUS!(hint)
Take a wild guess who will have #1 play
You guessed it!
1. Devin Hester-this doesn't need explanation




Bonus: Daniel Sepulveda-


Ha you weren't expecting that were you!
In case you were wondering that was the punter on the hit.


More Hester for your viewing pleasure:


Help me out. Did I miss a great play? If I did post a comment let me know and I'll be sure to get to it.

Jonathan Ordway, are you kidding me?

You may not have heard of Ordway just yet, but you may want to get to know him. I was at the ESPN televised AFL game Dallas @ Chicago and left with 1 minute left in the game because the Chicago Rush were up big. I got home, and to my dismay, I missed something huge. Just watch this vid and you'll see what I'm talking about. First, Devin Hester now Jonathan Ordway. What is in the water in Chicago? What made this event even worse, besides missing it, was that it was Sportcenter's Top Play of Sunday. This man is amazing. Remember the name Jonathan Ordway. You heard it here first.

Update: here's a better way to watch it.
