It’s Baaaaaack!

Posted by Vasherized on July 9th, 2009 under Football

Sort of. Maybe. In other words, you might see the vaunted Wrecking Crew make a return to the gridiron this Fall. But nothing is guaranteed -- the Shermanator is just hoping it comes back. Here is Fightin’ Texas Aggies Head Men’s American Football Coach Mike Sherman, attempting to be optimistic and relevant, against all odds: The Wrecking Crew may or may not return this Fall.

Bash Your Bookie Bets: Week 4

Posted by Trips Right on September 19th, 2007 under Football

The good news is that I really, really like this week's card. I like it more than Chooky likes frosted tipped boy bands, but not nearly as much as HenryJames likes the volleyball scene in Top Gun. So my feelings about
