After 16 weeks of blood and pain, wins and losses, the 2010 Pro Bowl rosters have been announced, with Peyton Manning taking snaps as the starting quarterback of the AFC and Drew Brees calling signals as the quarterback of the NFC.   This season’s Pro Bowl is notable because it will be the first Pro Bowl played at an actual NFL stadium (Miami’s Land Shark Stadium) since the 1979 edition, which took place at the LA Coliseum.  You can read the full rosters here.

I’ll have you note I had four of these guys (Rivers, Andre Johnson, Chris Johnson, and Ray Rice) on my fantasy football team this year, yet I didn’t even make the playoffs because I have horrible luck.  I have an eye for talent, but no rabbit’s foot in my pocket to do anything with it.  At least I didn’t have fantasy team killer Maurice Jones-Drew this year; I did have Ochocinco, but he didn’t make the Pro Bowl roster somehow.

For a football fan, the announcement of the Pro Bowl rosters are a bittersweet event.  It’s sweet because it’s two teams composed of the best professional football players on the planet, and it allows for a lot of debate as to whether or not certain guys deserve to be in certain positions.  However, it’s a bitter moment because that means the regular season is almost over and that, entirely too soon, the NFL season will be over.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
