SNF – Cardinals/Colts Live Blog – 4th Quarter

10:51: The man who vanquished the ‘06 Patriots, Marlon Jackson, intercepts Kurt Warner and we’re off and running into the fourth.
10:57: Michaels is putting forth an all-pro effort with Garcon. He explained the mark below the C on Garcon’s nameplate. It’s called a sedilla (sp?) and causes the C in Garcon to have a soft [...]

SNF – Cardinals/Colts Live Blog – 3rd Quarter

10:16:  The Cardinals swiftly move the ball downfield culminating in an Anquan Boldin touchdown. He is a star crossed player. He’s as talented as Fitzgerald in my opinion but gets dinged up too often and doesn’t have Fitz’s pedigree and thus, not nearly as well received. Too bad.
COLTS 21, CARDINALS 10

SNF – Cardinals/Colts Live Blog – 2nd Quarter

9:12: Geez. Got to love Michaels. He asks Collinsworth if the Cards are a one-year wonder and references the franchise’s less than stellar history. Seemingly on cue, Tim Hightower fumbles inside of the Colts’ 10 yardline.  Rough night for Timmy so far.

Video of the Day: Al Michaels Day

Would Al Michaels have ever earned the opportunity to become the best play by play man in the business if it weren’t for what happened on this day, 29 years ago in Lake Placid, New York? Do you believe in miracles? You better believe Al does.

The Griddy Awards

This was a Dr. Z specialty on SI’s website, however, with the good doctor recovering from two strokes (by the way, get well soon Doc) we’ll settle for the Griddy Awards from the folks over at Pro Football Weekly.

Super Bowl XLIII Blog! – Pregame Edition

6:09PM – It’s Al, John and the rest of our somewhat subdued rowdy friends on NBC for Super Bowl XLIII live from Tampa. The AFC Champion Steelers enter to “Right Here, Right Now” by Fatboy Slim. If history says anything, it’s an ominous sign. The 2001 Sixers used that as their pregame entry music and [...]
