I’m writing about Brett Favre because I want to?

I promised myself last summer that I was not going to write about Brett Favre. I did.
It’s not that I thought I’d want to write about Brett Favre. The only other time I even sort-of wrote about him wasn’t really about him; it was about ESPN’s media stalk-gala into his every inaction after he asked [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings Week 17

Seventeen weeks into the NFL season, and I still don’t see a sure thing in the top twelve teams. Sure, the Giants won it last year and should be favorites, but they have not looked like a champion in the past few weeks.
Then you have your sporadic squads-the teams no one saw coming. Teams like [...]

NFL Power Rankings Week 14

Every week it feels like we’re getting a little closer to truly discovering which teams are for real, and which ones are slowly falling apart.
We still don’t know what’s going on in New Orleans, and quite frankly, it’s possible we never will.
We have no idea what to make of the AFC East. We know the [...]

NFL Power Rankings Week 13

Just when you think you have it all figured out, the surging Jets lose, the Packers blow another chance, and the Panthers and Buccaneers keep winning.
Just what exactly, in this ridiculous NFL season makes sense anymore?
The Chiefs are as competitive as any other team, yet have two wins, and the Lions, much the same, are [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings Week 12

Oh, how the might have fallen. With the undefeated Titans joining the Giants as the only teams with one loss, they fall to second this week, as the Giants prove once again that they just might be the team to beat.
However, if the Jets can do this much damage to the previously assumed “best” team [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings Week 11

Another week is in the books, and outside of the Titans and Giants, we’re still unsure of how this season will play out.
Most analysts are positive we’ll be seeing the Titans and Giants square off in the final game of the season, and maybe I’m just seeing things differently, but I’m not completely sold on [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings Week 10

It’s a weird feeling. We knew we’d be here, but we were positive we’d never get here.
On one side, you have Brett Favre and his Jets going up against the Patriots for first place. The new guy with his new girlfriend, and he’s already gearing up for marriage? Nah.
Forget about the Jets winning the game, [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings: Week 9

Finally, we’re seeing some consistency in the NFL.
In the bottom five this week, all the teams have issues at the quarterback position, which is a perfect reason why their offenses are so ineffective.
In the top half, most of the teams have solid defenses, and know how to pound the ball at the end of games, [...]

The Packers Should Move On

Move on.  Get over it.  Keep your mouth shut.  Don’t be so bitter.  This is the advice Packers fans so generously offer Brett Favre.  It seems, though, that the Packers themselves should be the ones heeding this advice.  The Packers would like everyone to believe they have moved on and gotten over the Brett Favre [...]

2008 NFL Power Rankings Week 8

The three teams I’m most interested in?
No, not the Carolina Panthers, Pittsburgh Steelers, or even the undefeated Tennessee Titans.
Try the sloppy Cleveland Browns, the surging Houston Texans, and the surprising Miami Dolphins.
All three of these teams are still below .500, are inconsistent as can be, and quite possibly could be out of the playoff picture [...]
