Phone Don’t Fit, Must Acquit

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Guess who never had a “packer-issued” phone?  Yep, according to sources, Burt never had one, despite our secret Favre photo.

“One-hundred percent, without a doubt, no Packers-issued phone,” the source […]

Favre, Phone, Phucked, Phikings

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Breaking News:  Brett’s been cheating on the Packers for a while now, according to sources.  Phone records of phone calls to Viking coaches indicate Brett’s been trying to work a deal- despite his “love” for Green Bay.  

A league source tells us that the Green Bay Packers are confident that they have sufficient proof to show that […]

Jeremy and Bourbon St. Unite

Taylor Traded, Parcells Still Has Mangina

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

You probably already heard this, but…..
Jason Taylor is officially a Washington Redskin. The Dolphins will get a 2009 and 2010 draft pick from the Redskins to complete the deal. 
Juice:  This deal was a no-brainer for the Big Tuna.  Jason isn’t “Parcells material” and rebuilding the Dolphins will ultimately require many draft picks between now and […]

Dear Ted Thompson:
 
Hi, my name is Jason Whitlock. I’m sure you’ve heard of me. My reputation in football circles is well established.

Is Brett the Britney of the NFL?

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

For the record, we’re not calling  Brett Favre  the “Britney” of the NFL.
Whew!  We almost got lynched by a block of cheese after that headline.  Brett gave his side of the story to Greta (lisp) Van Susteran yesterday, because she’s from Appleton, WI- and a Packer shareholder.  
Brett’s beef is that he retired prematurely, because […]

We’re pulling for Pacman to prove the […]
