QuotePackers-Bucs, Week 3. Favre throws an interception on the first series. His fault? My goodness, no. It never is. "The receiver didn't get separation." (Then don't throw the freakin ball, Brett!). I'm even hearing organizational copping out, as the Packers sink to 0-3. "They're in a little bit of their transitional mode with their franchise," Buck says, and, yeah, I'd expect it from him
:-D

QuoteNO STARS
Mike Patrick, Joe Theismann, Paul Maguire, ESPN --  The Three Stooges will be broken up next year. Maybe we can get them together for one grand reunion or something. They move out of the absolute cellar to make room for our honored guests. I swore that I would not flog this team anymore, but I simply had to mention one parting bit of "I'm not quite sure what I'm saying," courtesy of Theismann.

Wild Card game between Washington and Tampa Bay, officiated by Mike Carey. Things began to get a bit rough.

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Good point. Dr. Douche could have made those columns much better, but his zesty writing just kinda ruined one subject everyone loves: making fun of announcers.

It's his easiest article to write each year.  Everyone loves to rip on the announcers.  If he couldn't write a halfway satisfying gimmick piece like this once a year, even the ( mostly incompetent) sports journalism community would reject him.
