NFL News and Notes
« Previous EntriesJury Duty
This week, rather than spending the week working, the city and county of Denver requested my assistance in resolving a matter in dispute. That’s right, I got jury duty.
Clearly, the prosecutors and defense attorneys are big fans of this site and are well aware of my reputation for unbiased analysis.
While, you may be […]
The Hierarchy of Hate v2.0 - Week #11
We are back with a speed round of Hierarchy of Hate on this Saturday morning. Mistakenly, one of our games has already been played (oops), so cheering is sort of a moot point now.
As an added bonus, we have used two cities to tie all of our games together. Why? I don’t know. Mostly […]
Not Taking Shape At All
With another week in the books in the NFL, I wish I could say things are starting to work themselves out like at the collegiate level. Each and every division is still a mess and most look nothing like they did just a few weeks ago.
It was a given that the NFC East is […]
The Hierarchy of Hate v2.0 - Week #10
With the election finally in our rear-view mirror (is it possible it is actually over?) it is time to come back to football. As a big sports fan, I am sure the new President-Elect understands if we now turn back to the football field and leave the economic policy to him.
This week in a […]
It’s Always Darkest…
Have you ever had the experience where something bad occurs, whether it is a tragedy or just something you feel guilty about (like a car accident or a fight with a loved one) and over the next several days there is this vague pained feeling in the back of your mind?
No matter what you are […]
The Hierarchy of Hate v2.0 - Week #9
We are back with a special Halloween edition of the Hierarchy of Hate. Had I a little more foresight, I would have been smart enough to go with a Halloween theme for games (i.e. – the battle of scary mascots), alas I did not. Though I am happy to report that the more literary of […]
The Hierarchy of Hate v2.0 - Week #8
It is a nerve-wracking time here at the THH. While we pick random, mostly meaningless games to cheer on here, it is getting to the point in both the pros and college where games are becoming more important. A loss here (or a second) and a team’s national title (or even conference title) hopes are […]
Turning the Corner
“I’ll believe it when I see it.”
“I’m from Missouri, you have to show me.”
“Those who don’t learn from the past are destined to repeat it.”
“Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result.”
“Liquor before beer you are in the clear, Beer before liquor never been sicker.”
Pick your mantra and they […]
The Hierarchy of Hate v2.0 - Week #7
We are back to make another round of critical decisions on who to cheer for in some of the more interesting (or random) games this coming weekend. Let’s get right to it.
Given Turner’s absence over the last couple weeks, I asked the famous Joe Six-Pack to join me in picking games. Unfortunately as you […]
Arguing with Myself
Sunday afternoon, I am sitting in the office. While my co-workers discuss some… work…stuff (I wasn’t really paying attention – good use of that plane ticket getting me to Seattle early), I sat at my computer nodding knowingly and adding a well-placed ‘that’s a good idea’ while I slowly died a little inside.
While I […]
