There is a new Rule in NCAA Football

If anyone has heard of this new rule please let me know. Its a great new rule, and this ref is awesome, he just made my Christmas list.



How do you define the "Givin the business" Penalty?

Butter Head And Eating What?

This is what they call in the business "Internet Gold". Had to share this after I watched it on mypetjawa and again at littlegreenfootballs. They had it titled "When Cultures Collide", that's pretty good, because someone translates a music video from India, which may be suspect, but who am I to say anything I hardly speak English good(I know , its well).



You've got to love the guy in all black no lines, and that serious idiot look on his face throughout.

Support for our troops (especially through holidays)

As a proud american who whole-heartedly supports or troops everywhere in the world, I thought this was a cool idea that I would like to share with anyone looking for a way to show their support. As the holidays are fast approaching and most people will be with their friends and family, our troops will be in terrible areas of the world with little or no contact with their loved ones. YOU can bring a soilder some happiness or at the very least let them know how much you appreciate the sacrifice they are making for you to be able to enjoy your holidays. So please, take a few minutes of your time and follow the link below to send a card to the troops.

Also... If you don't stand behind our troops, please feel free to STAND IN FRONT OF THEM!!!!

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO DO THIS. IT IS QUICK AND EASY. IT IS A GREAT WAY TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR OUR TROOPS.

Something cool that Xerox is doing... If you go to this web site, www.letssaythanks.com , you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! This is a great site. It is FREE and it only takes a second.

Lion's Post Game Press Conference

We're confused and we have some Questions Coach!


When talking about the Detroit Lions I like to have a two day waiting period. Especially after a loss to hear coach Marinelli talk, explain, make an excuse about the games events.

The post game press conference was a joke as usual. Marinelli wouldn't directly answer the sports reporters and had this arrogant bravado, short and curt. That shit might work in the locker room, but he just came out looking like an ass to Lion's fans.

In my opinion the sports reporters are there to ask the questions we can not, and the Coaches argumentative attitude was out of line. Why get tough with the guys asking questions?

Don't come out here and talk about "poundin' the rock", and then lash out at the press for asking the obvious questions. The reporters will ask the questions to you as long as we the fans are asking them what the hell is going on. Don't get defensive when we/they ask how in the hell we lost to Arizona when you said something along the lines of...we need or have to beat the teams we are expected to beat...don't quote me, but its real close to that.

How is it paying attention to detail when Larry Foster was off-sides so often that I was like hey are they serving Big Mac's in every huddle? Another detail issue is turning over the ball in crucial drives near the end of the game(New rule from NFL: Lions get a handle put on the ball in forth quarter of every game). Minus 18 yards rushing is not paying attention to game detail(See new NFL ruling). Letting a one armed QB beat you is flat out upsetting! This is a momentum and confidence thing that winning teams get the job done and WIN.

The above may sound angry, but its not or actually it is. I for one am proud of what the Lion's have accomplished this year, but it is frustrating to see a great win and then a very bad loss to a sub par team. How can we trust this team to emerge out of mediocrity?

The above issue is with Marinelli and how he addresses the guys who ask the questions for us...the fans.

Stop Squirming!

"Stop squirming!" is something I've said 100 times to my kids, what I didn't realize is that this affliction goes well beyond childhood... but for different reasons. Check out the site Stop Squirming and see for yourself.

What's your signature squirm?

Mine? "Bus Change".

Two Great SNL Celebrity Jeopardy Skits

There are several of these SNL Jeopardy skits all over, but these two are my favorite.

1.This is #1 because Turd Furgeson is just damn funny!

2.Its an edited montage of all of the Sean Connery Jeopardy skits. Careful, the volume kind of jumps around. Vid from youtube.

Do Anything to Win a Game!

Better than Cal vs Stanford of '82? Even without the band marching in early this is pretty awesome. Trinity vs. Millsaps

Some pro teams could learn something from these Div.III players.

Tribute to a Kicker

Ok, now I've seen a lot of "tribute" videos, but this is just, well, its blatantly, I really don't know, watch and judge for yourself.

If you haven't heard, the Tennessee Titan's kicker Rob Bironas broke a record for kicks in a game and this fan made him a video. I especially appreciate the photo shopping of pics.



Saw this at withleather.com and had to share with you guys.

October 19th aka-Black Friday

October 19th is a sad day to me and The Ubster....its our birthday, yes the same day. We have a lot of similarities, but that's all besides the point, the point is birthdays.

I dislike b-days, and I don't mean to be so cynical, but my family does not like to age or at least acknowledge it so my issues come from a long line of "don't say a G-damn word to me today". Here's a little example, my mothers birthday was last week, and we were all over there to "celebrate", and I asked my mother "so I don't have to do the math, how old are you?" she quickly responded with the middle finger. So now you have an idea of the response you would get from me if you asked. She didn't do it to be mean or pissed-off, she's a fairly classy chick, but a sign of "back-off I'm feeling old", so I didn't take it to heart.

Now that I have kids I may change my feelings, but I did start a family at a late age so I've got that shit to deal with....

The video kind of sums up how I feel. This youtube video is kind of old, but still relevant and still very funny.

The Wayne Fontes Experience: The absolute LAST word any Detroit Lions fan wants to hear is "Patience"#links#links

Take a moment to read Al's feelings on being told to have patience with the Lion's. I think Al speaks for a lot of us regarding being patient with the Lion's.

Notre Dame on NBC...?

This video is great, it expresses sarcastically the frustration of College football fans all over. With the Big Ten Network screwing us all, one finds themselves saying why the hell do I have to watch Notre Dame on NBC if I want to watch a game. Well, you could watch Wayne State Univ. take on whomever on the Comcast channel(8 in my neighborhood) or you could hunt out a big ten game on ESPN 5, 6, maybe 7 where Indiana is facing-off with Northwestern. Nothing against any of these teams, but lets face it, we want to watch the powerhouse teams. I hope ND finally makes NBC see that they need to fire that genius who signed this big TV contract.

Motorcycle chase in Michigan

This was damn exciting to watch! The upper left says FPD, and they comment on the cross street of Livernois so I would put that around the Ferndale, MI. area.

I like the control technique of the officer and what he says near the end. Seriously, the cops close to Detroit have learned not to screw around with these kinds of crooks, who are typically coming out of the D, don't believe me, ask a Detroit cop anytime how tough it is. I'm pretty sure Officer Kline of the DPD will tell you how unsoft it is(his words).

Playing with Snakes

Ya know something, I may not be a very smart man, but I do know not to get into water with a very big snake! And in said water grab the snakes tail, jerk it around, and then go looking for its head "full of teeth".

If you do grab a giant snake expect yourself to be saying "I've got a really bad bite" several times.



I want to thank liveleak.com for showing us what not to do with really big snakes!

One Man's Opinion...
