Are you sick of the media's over hyping of everything Favre!

 I am. Apparently Favre is an NFL team, not a QB. Two years of Favre-A-Palooza has me puking in my steel toed boots, yet again.

Still, the media's short attention span translates into the balloon boy type of media we're stuck with! Short attention span and TMZ media rules the airwaves. Renaming Brett Favre Drive as the new Aaron Rodgers Drive is beyond TOTALLY G-a-a-y! Hey, will the KC Chefs suspend me for that! Let's play ball @ 3:15 Central now!

This Vikes fan is sick, tired, overwhelmed and disturbed by the overemphasis of this match up's importance.

I always respected Favre for his abilities, period.  Now, I cheer for a team that finally has a QB and am pleased to do so. Reality check: The PACK forced Favre's hand and had to .

We get it.

The Salary Cap forced Green Bay to tell Favre to retire.

Unfortunately, Favre wasn't ready. Aaron Rodgers was eating up CAP space. Another reality.

Favre was supposed to "ride into the sunset" because management wanted him to take a career nap. Sorry Charlie! Favre still has gas in the tank and isn't ready to retire.

We all wait for this game.

If I see Wendy Nix with another boring Favre report, I'll throw up in my mouth again...and hope she does a Playboy spread soon.

And now some shout-outs for stupidity!

ESPN gets the golden banana for hyping the availability of BOTH the Texas/Okie State and USC/Oregon games: Wrong, you scumbags!

ESPN blacked out the USC/Oregon game in north Texas! We were supposed to see the USC/Oregon game on the 2nd ESPN network. This was the best match up of the day, but NOOOOOOOOO! Nothing, nada, zip, zilch...just a blank screen. You SUK, ESPN!

This just in, Nebraska has no "O" on the field or spell-o-logically. If this team had an average offense, they'd be undefeated and would face the equally pathetic Iowa in the BCS Championship game.

Hey, the Big XII and Big Ten don't have refs throw games like the CBS-SEC conference! This just in...Oregon beat the family paying University of Spoiled Children. I wish I could have seen the game.

TCU waits in the short grass!

What is it with Fantasy Sports!

I don't get it and never will.

PLEASE TELL ME WHY YOU DUDES AND DUDETTES DIG ON FANTASY LEAGUES, please.  I really want to know.  The "leagues" seem to ruin enjoying the game.  Last fall, an Indy fan cheered against Peyton Manning because of his drafted players!  WTF!!!  This guy was counseled out of  fantasy leagues by his friends and family.  For some, these fantasy leagues are like crack.  I don't get why and never will.

Most of us have 200 channels on the boob tube(23 of which are worth any viewing!) and our minds have the attention span of Sig Eps at a Chi Omega lingerie party(that's boys at a girls party...)

My friends try to force me into their annual NFL Fantasy Draft.  Each year I say, "Hell no, you tards.  I like beer and  babes, not your calling each other to trade a QB that's under performing, according to estimates."  I end up being the draft official/Ombudsman(adult word for Arbiter) and peacemaker.

Fantasy sports are beyond fake!  It's worse than the WWE. 

What clicked in your brain that made you dig on FANTASY SPORTS.

I need to understand why Fantasy Sports are loved.

Yeah, you can rag on me, but I'll give you this...I dig on televised poker.  That's the equivalent of liking Fantasy Sports.  C'mon World Series of Poker,  get here now.  Then again, the next time I hear someone call Phil Ivey the Tiger Woods of Poker, I'll go to Vegas and strangle the announcer.

"Yeah, I'll trade you Phil Helmuth for Doyle Brunson and Johnny Chan...sweet."

Ok, why do so many people hate on Tony Romo?

Could it be jealousy?  Ok, I live in north Texas and have watched this cool cat for a few years.  No, I'm a Vikes fan and C'boys tolerator.   Romo has a future in the NFL booth.  He's calm, collected and can form a complete sentence, unlike far too many in the league. (It would be nice to win a playoff game...hint, hint.) Is Romo out committing crimes, getting numerous skanks pregnant, tattooing his face, twising the heads off kittens? No, No, No and NO!

So Romo dated a ditzy blonde!  The only problem with that is the number of dudes that are jealous.  Still we wonder how far he did get and if the boat Simpson gave Tony is really worth squat.  It may be pawned soon.

Romo was recently badmouthed by an ESPN paid fool.  Why?  Tony can play more than one sport and actually enjoys and plays tournament golf.  GASP!  "Romo should be at work tossing passes to his newest WR!"  Yeah right!  Why don't you put down the buffet fork and exercise yourself, media dude.  Sometimes media pukes completely phone in their stories and bore us to the point of hiring a hitman.  Many of you readers and writers are better than the hack media who's on a quota for backstabbing.

Would a Cowboys fan or Jerry Jones prefer that Romo play golf or ride a motorcycle like the Steelers QB?  No contest.

If you have the skills, do whatever you want and media be damned.

And now, it's beer thirty.

The United States is the Galapagos Island of sports.

Euro Guide to why soccer is not important here.

As we grew as a nation, so did our desire to play  and watch sports.   We created new sports and they evolved in unique nature.  This infuriates some, still.

The seasons dictated the creation of new sports for every season and the male culture said, "booh yah."   The weather has always impacted where the better outdoor teams are located.  The south dominates NCAA baseball.

The result of sports passion was an evolution, far away from the origins of europe and asia.

Basketball was created by a Canadian, Naismith, in America.  The world plays basketball.

Football evolved from rugby and became the national passion.  This is a tough export.

Baseball came along and is nicknamed "the national past time."  This is a passion in many countries of the Americas.  The Japanese pro leagues are fantastic.

Hockey still holds its european origins.  We hijacked plenty of Canadian teams to the southern United States, and a northern U.S. team, too.   Team rosters are filled with Canadians and Euros.   We don't care where the player is from as long as our team wins.

NCAA sports balooned with the growth of the nation and the desire for more sports action.   Many alumni/booster Clubs control university sports hiring and firing.  Even hockey has womens teams now and is an Olympic event. 

Professional Wrestling evolved constantly.  Wrestling 'franchise' owners went before Congress and declared it to be an entertainment industry, not a sport, just to keep the government out.  I'll give you two words why you should watch wrestling:  Torrie Wilson.  A bikini clad girl or hot cheerleader never hurt a sport.

Radio fueled the sports expansion, later replaced by television, which was complemented by the explosion of sports on cable television.

We go to football games and yell at the opponent's fans.

We attend baseball as a kind of social event and talk to those around us.

Basketball fills the blogs every day and the playoffs go on forever.

We have sports for all seasons and something is always on cable.

Add Fantasy(name a sport) and it's 24/7 sports.

Thanks to Fox Sports and ESPN's many channels, we never go without our sports.

I remember Sunday mornings after church.  We watched the regional wrestling matches with names that later became national.  Look at the evolution of wrestling.  It went from small time gyms into a multi-million dollar industry. 

Soccer never had  a chance.  Why? The best athletes chose the other major sports instead.  Add parental pressure to play one of the 'real man' sports as a reason soccer is trailing and doesn't have a strong footprint on the masses.

Fathers and sons bonded discussing sports, listening to baseball on the radio and watching on black and white television.  My dad explained why the Mick was so great, and he didn't understand why I liked Sal Bando.  He accepted me anyway.

Our sports are in our genes and run deep in our blood.

Count the number of sports jerseys you have.  I have NCAA Football, NCAA  Baseball, NHL,  NFL, even FIFA jerseys for Deutschland and Argentina.  Why those soccer jerseys?  Because they look cool, that's why.

Sport is international.  I was stopped in the street of Paris and asked about the Dallas Stars, because of my ballcap.  We talked NHL hockey at a cafe,   Some Germans at Oktoberfest knew who the Huskers were and asked about the Thanksgiving Friday game with Oklahoma.  Still, they also asked if Texas was filled with people like JR Ewing.

People pick and choose which sport they want to love, regardless of  their home continent.  That's not going to change.  The U.S. has created new sports and exported them to the world.  It's time for a couple new sports to be created.  February is a slow sports month compared to the rest of the year.
