Chargers Antonio Garay drives a ‘Hello, Kitty’ smartcar

When San Diego Chargers “Human Wall” Antonio Garay goes to mail his $15,000 fine for a hit on Tom Brady to the Commish you can bet he’ll be driving to the post office in his new, bad-ass car.

I say ‘bad-ass’ because Garay is 6’4″ and 350-pounds. That’s a big dude. And that big dude just happens to roll around in a Hello, Kitty SmartCar. Why? Don’t know and I’m not gonna ask him. I’d like to keep my ribs intact.

If a guy that big wants to drive around in a car like that than so be it.

Wait…What? 11 Year Old Benched For Scoring Too Many Touchdowns!

Well, it’s not everyday you’re told you’re too good to play in a sports league. Maybe for you, not for me. I get that all the time. But one 11 year old kid is in some trouble, of sorts, for being too good and scoring too many touchdowns!

The Madre Hill Rule is a forgotten rule of the great Arkansas player that basically says if you’re too good and you’re balls are so huge the rest of the kids get jealous that your playing time is cut.

11-years-old Demias Jimerson basically scores every time he touches the ball so the Rule was dusted off for fair play. OK, maybe not fair play. You know everyone else is jealous of this dude.

Did the NFL invoke the Bill Belichick rule when he was running up the score? No, you let them play. If one kid can’t be stopped that’s not his problem and he shouldn’t be punished because of it. The principal states that it’s unfair and the other kids are left by themselves.

What? Stop coddling these kids and let Demias play. They will learn to be better football players and people by facing adversity and learning to adjust, not by having a crappy rule take out the talented kid. Let him run up the score if need be. It’s 6th grade football and this is where they have to start learning how to play the game.

The good news is this silly rule is only for 5th and 6th graders and next season we look forward to Demias ripping up his opponents fairly.

At the young age of 11-years-old, Demias Jimerson reminds a lot of people of Razorback great Madre Hill.

“If you were looking at them you would say they were very much similar,” said Darryl Baker, who coached Hill and now referees Jimerson’s games. “I mean they both run really fast, good kids, run with the same style.”

Like Jimerson, Hill attended Wilson Intermediate School and dominated the football field so thoroughly, the league invoked what came to be known as the Madre Hill Rule. Once Hill scored three touchdowns, if his team had a 14-point lead, officials banned him from scoring any more touchdowns. Now, for the first time since, the Wilson Intermediate Football League is using the Madre Hill rule again — to tackle Demias Jimerson.

“I got, kinda got shocked because I didn’t know that was gonna happen, but it did,” said Jimerson. Adding, “I’m ok with it.”

Principal Bryant, the defacto commissioner of the Wilson Intermediate Football League, says the rule isn’t meant to punish Jimerson. It’s there to help the other fifth and sixth graders on the field develop as football players too.

“The other players on both teams, 21 are just left sort of, this is all Demias,” she said. “So that’s why the Madre Hill Rule has been implemented.”

But the Madre Hill rule is only for fifth and sixth grades. Next year, Jimerson goes to seventh grade.

“I’m gonna run hard and bring our team to victory,” said Jimerson. Then he added, “but God always comes first, before anything, and grades second.”

God, grades, then touchdowns — Madre Hill Rule or not.

Jimerson played a couple of games this season before the Wilson League invoked the Madre Hill Rule. In one of those games, he scored seven touchdowns. Jimerson’s team is undefeated.

Po Po Might Ban Stripper Bus at Lions Games

Leave it to the “Man” to ruin a good time. The Police may halt a party bus allegedly operating as a portiable Sunday game day strip club for Lions fans. The bus was parked at a popular tailgating spot in Detroit.

The police are just trying their best to jinx the Lions. They must be Packers fans because as long as the Lions have sucked, and they have sucked for a long time, you don’t do anything to mess with the winning streak.

The 3-0 Lions rely on their home fans to cheer them on and inspire them.  You don’t take away the strippers and expect the fans to be happy!

Investigators believe fans tailgating before a recent Lions home game were allowed onboard the “Booty Lounge,” a large red and black bus replete with two stages, steel dancing poles, tinted windows and even a smoke machine, after forking over a $10 donation to its operators, Detroit Police spokeswoman Eren Stephens said Thursday.

And who would we be if we didn’t find a ton of pictures on the Booty Lounge Facebook Page.  Here’s the gallery from the FB page showing how the layout of the bus has been constructed to form a strip club.  And there’s also a picture of a kid driving the bus because that’s not creepy at all.

Thankfully, An End Of An Era. Tom Brady Cuts Goofy Hair

9/28/2011. Mark the date. Boston area citizens and Patriots fans worldwide woke up today to find that local hero Tom Brady had cut his hair.

Twitter feeds are blowing up talking about the new developments and I wonder how long the mourning period will last. Considering most people didn’t seem to like the hair it is a funny thing it was such an attention getter.

The saga of Brady’s hair began last summer as Tom started growing his hair out. In September it was reported that he said his wife Gisele wouldn’t allow him to cut it. The biggest story to come out of the hair came when comparisons to teenage pop star Justin Bieber hair started a surreal Brady/Bieber rap beef.

New York Post Mocks Michael Vick as Whiny Baby

Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick opened up the floodgates for criticism last weekend when he talked at the post-game press conference and complained about the refs not making calls to protect him.

Vick is nursing a head injury and almost broken hand, injuries sustained over huge hits over the last two weeks. The Giants didn’t help matters Sunday with a few more hits to his head which helped prompt the Vick outburst.

So is Vick just being a big baby? The New York Post thinks so with this sweet illustration on their opinion on the matter.

New York Super Bowl Logo Released with Snow Theme

Ya know, I was originally very much against the NFL holding a Super Bowl in a cold weather environment. There is just so much that the weather can do that would change the game that wouldn’t happen in warm weather environment.  It’s gonna totally mess up people’s bets if some snow or sleet comes rolling into town.  Fun.

And the NFL acknowledged it this week with the release of the new Super Bowl XLVIII logo for the game which will be held at the new MetLife Meadowlands stadium, home to the Jets and Giants.  It’s a nice, clean logo with a nice graphic of the Washington Bridge but what you’ll also notice is a big ass snowflake right in the middle.

So if you get a chance to watch your first Super Bowl and it’s at this event be sure to bring something warm to wear.

Monday Morning GIFs Take One In the Crotch

The Lions and Bills won this weekend bringing them each to a 3-0 record. The Lions I can see. They were due and are stacked with talent. The Bills on the other hand…who knew?

Devon Hester Best Punt Return Ever! And He Never Touches The Ball

The Bears struggled on offense again as the running game disappeared completely this week. Offensive coordinator Mike Martz and his team just cannot get on the same page. Thankfully, they have Devin Hester.

The Chicago Bears can usually rely on the dangerous return abilities of Devin Hester to break a game wide open. The guy is so talented that now they have another layer of skills to add to the playbook : Decoy.

Hester and most of the Bears fake a return. Not a punt mind you but the return part of the play. They all shift to the left side of the field and leave Johnny Knox on the right side by himself. Turns out the Pack never watched the ball and despite actually kicking the ball, bite on the fake play.

And they would’ve gotten away with one of the best plays you’ve ever seen on special teams if not for those pesky kids. Namely #21 Corey Graham. This Bear foils his own team’s efforts with a silly and useless hold early on the play which brings it back.

It’s really hard to see but at 2 seconds in look at the top right of the screen and you’ll see 2 orange Bears jerseys and one white Packers jersey. The camera cuts away quick but you’ll see #24, Jarrett Bush, of the Packers getting his jersey pulled on. Tough call.

I think the play was so good they should have a special “Awesome” rule that allows penalties to be waived when something special like this happens.

Megatron Clutch Catch Seals OT Win For Lions

Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson, A.K.A. Megatron, hauled in seven passes for 108 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Lions to a 26-23 overtime victory over the Vikings in Week 3.

Johnson and Lions have started to come into focus over the last few years and now after a hot start Detroit is 3-0 after a close OT win against Minnesota. It’s the first time in 20 years that the Lions have won in Minneapolis and the biggest play of the game came in OT thanks to Johnson.

Detroit’s QB Matt Stafford tossed a long pass to Megatron just a minute and half into the OT which Johnson pulled in and put the Lions on the Vikings 16 yard line. The next play was an easy FG to win the game. Check out the sweet catch by Johnson to seal the game for good.
