Forecast: Divisional Round playoff picks( Fuck you Favre)

WWLTV.com columnist Ralph Malbrough has brought the fucking crazy with his picks this week. The Giants and Seahawks both win? Is he fucking insane? We do like the Peter King bashing though...

"Oh Reginald...I DISAGREE!!!"

So apparently ESPN has barely covered the Reggie Bush story in which he may have violated strict NCAA rules while at USC. Why's that, you ask? The answer is seriously fucked up. Read more. Somebody get Oliver Stone on line one! And while I'm here, might as well post this great "Family Guy" video:

My favorite soccer team shitcans manager after only 8 months

(WARNING! This is a soccer related post!)

The headline above pretty much says it all. "Big Sam" Allardyce parted ways with Newcastle United today after only eight months with the club. Allardyce got the team off to a rousing start for the year, going unbeaten in its first five matches, but then the wheels came off fast...I think Newcastle recorded only one win in its last six games.

Newcastle fans really pushed hard for the man's canning, but what good does that do? Since January of 1997, the team has had eleven managers. To be fair, four of those managers were just one game fill-ins. The fifth guy takes over for a game and that may be it for him, too. Anyway...that's six managers in 11 years with multiple games. Not even a two year average coaching lifespan.

No sports franchise can succeed with that sort of instability. I may not have been happy with the results thus far from Sam Allardyce, but he deserved better than to be driven out with not even a full season's worth of results.

Newcastle fans really need to sit back and be patient with the next guy, otherwise the club will be viewed as a poor job choice...if it hasn't been labelled as such already.

Forecast: It's good to be the king...

Taken from The Forecast's Tuesday morning column about LSU's BCS Championship win over Ohio State:

"One of my favorite movies is Mel Brooks History of the World Part I and the funniest line from the movie is, 'It's good to be the King!'

"That pretty much sums up my feeling as an LSU fan right now.

"After winning their second BCS Title in five years, I could argue that the Tigers are the most dominate college football program this decade." Read more.

Moratorium on the "THE" in Ohio State University

Sit down, guys...Look, I know all you pro players and former students just love saying "THE Ohio State University" during every player introduction in the beginning of sports lineup announcements and so on, but ah...

The rest of the country voted and until you guys win a national championship in this century, we've put a moratorium on the "THE" portion of things. From now on, just say, "I'm from Ohio State University," okay? Cause to be honest, we all kinda thought you guys were douchebags for throwing "THE" around like it's some sort of bold proclamation.

When half of your schedule consists of powerhouses such as Akron, Kent, Minnesota, Northwestern, Purdue, Washington and Youngstown, you don't get to say "THE" anything, okay? Shit, folks in the SEC (and you'll notice I didn't say "THE" SEC, did you?) don't say "THE" in front of their respective colleges. And why? Cause we're not douchebags. I didn't say we weren't jabronies, by the way. Christ knows I've seen waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many guys with 'Bama Bangs and that vacant Spicoli stare on their faces...but I digress.

ESPN.com's Pat Forde absolutely crushed you guys today by saying that Ohio State should never be asked back to the National Championship Game as long as the opponent is from the SEC. He also made the same joke as my "Guy Who Knows a Guy," suggesting that the Ohio State band spell out O-H-N-O when they have to play an SEC team ever again.

Forecast: Can Miles and Flynn win a Title?

Ralph Malbrough writes regularly for WWLTV.com but sometimes contributes to us. Even though he doesn't curse or insult people we like him anyway.

Welcome to the good old days. We are either in the middle of or at the climax of the golden age of LSU football. Don’t let the old timers tell you any different.

The Tigers are in their second national championship game in five years, have won at least 10 games three straight years, and Les Miles is a crazy person.

And really, that’s what makes this even more fun.

Admit it; you are both horrified and delighted at the thought of what Les might pull tonight.
I know I am.

He might go for it on fourth down early and often, fake a punt or field goal, scream at a sideline reporter or he might have a team so undisciplined that the Buckeyes take advantage of Tiger turnovers and penalties and ruin what should be a great ending for the most talented LSU football team in the school’s history. But most likely the game will come down to an in game decision by Miles that will either be called brilliant, stupid or both.

In a way Les Miles is the perfect coach for LSU. I mean deep down we like our politicians, celebrities, and football coaches to be entertaining don’t we?

Miles might be “a Michigan man” but his craziness makes him almost a perfect fit in the Bayou.
I’m sure rooting for winning teams with great boring coaches like Jim Tressel or Bill Belichick is fantastic because winning is always the thing but being in the car that Les Miles drives is an experience all it’s own.

If Ohio State drove a BMW on the interstate to get to the title game, Les Miles is the wacko neighbor with the raised up pickup truck with the winch going off road to get where he’s going.
You make fun of that neighbor until he’s helping you get your car out of a ditch.

From the fourth downs against Florida, to the touchdown against Auburn, and even the comeback against Alabama, Les has made the journey to the title game a series of escapes Jesse James would be proud of.

As for how the actual game will go tonight, I think the experts have over thought it.
Talking about something for a month will have that affect.

I’ll try and break it down by what I know.

LSU will definitely be the most talented team Ohio State has played this year.

Ohio State might be the most talented team LSU will play.

The Tigers could jump out early and seize control.

Advantage LSU.

Teams that got healthy going into their bowl have done very well. (See Michigan over Florida)

Advantage LSU.

LSU’s signature win against Virginia Tech isn’t as good as it looks.

The Hokies in truth played in the weak ACC and had no consistent quarterback play and the Tigers defense was showing weakness against the run before all the injuries hit.

Advantage Ohio State

Ohio State will likely try to spread LSU defensively and attack on the ground with Beanie Wells.
If LSU stuffs the run and can pressure Buckeye quarterback Todd Boeckman I think they win.

For all of Ohio State’s defensive dominance Illinois moved the ball on them and I’m sure LSU is at least as good as the Illini.

So it all boils down to what every LSU fan asked in September, “Is Matt Flynn good enough to win a National Championship?”

I know you are expecting a prediction but I really have absolutely no idea because I think Tressel is a much better game day coach than Miles and that will even out all of LSU’s advantages.

Just enjoy the final chapter of the wildest football season I’ve ever watched. The Tigers somehow someway are where we all hoped they’d be.

Ok fine, you want a score?

LSU 24-17

Beer playoffs?! Why the f*ck didn't I think of that?!?!

Damn you, Deuce of Davenport! Damn you to hell for your filthy brilliance! Read more.

And a nice, filthy hat tip to the Big Lead. Damn you guys to hell as well.

Can't go back to OKC, Georgie Boy...

This report comes courtesy of AOL Sports...if anybody is gonna move to Oklahoma City, it's gonna be the (soon to be artists formerly known as) Seattle SuperSonics...NOT the Hornets. Read more. And here's the original report from the Seattle Times.

Oh well, at least Seattle fans can focus their fandom on the incoming MLS franchise. Catch the MLS Fever!! (shakes fist at your face) Catch it...

Who wants to work for this guy?

According to my "Guy Who Knows a Guy," Tony Sparano (Dallas offensive line coach), Mike Tice (Jacksonville Asst. Head Coach) and Maurice Carthon (Arizona running backs coach) are the three front runners for the Miami Dolphins head coaching gig, in that order. The Bleacher Report seems to think Carthon and Sparano are legit contenders.

I'll have more later on the Ravens and Falcons vacancies as soon as Guy Who Knows a Guy gets back in touch.

Fear the Hat Tressel

I'm really getting fed up with everyone saying I'm crazy.

Miles shotguns a beer

Listen sure I like to take risks and all those national sports writers think my winning touchdown pass against Auburn was risky because there was only one second left on the game clock after the play.

Do you know how long a second is?

Really long, in fact you might not be aware of what you can do in a second so here is a list

Sniff glue

Insult hot smart ass side line reporterette...yeah I'm talking to you Tracy Wolfson...go get bent

Kill Vietnamese hooker with my bare hands

So you shouldn't worry about how 'Crazy Les' handles his business, you hearin me?

Good.

Sure my team might have three turnovers and a dozen penalties against the Suckeyes but guys like Jim Tressel....I gave douches like him wedgies in high school and college....just looking at the nerdy bastard makes me want to stuff him in a locker.

Don't worry, Tiger Fans...if need be I'll go for it on fourth and 10 from my own 10 yard line in the 1st quarter.

I'll have the Golden Girls give those Ohio State players body shots on the sideline too

Whatever it takes baby.

I learned from Bo Schembechler, the best ever.

You know how he won all those Rose Bowls and Big Ten titles? Hookers, coke, and Johnnie Walker that's how.

I'm not sure how my team will play after the month layoff but I sure know I like drinking in the morning.

See Assholes, I was brilliant

Hello all you Katrina surviving losers.

I see on all your nerd like message boards you are whining about Gary Gibbs and how crappy his defense is.

HAHA. See over here in St. Louis I'm building a heckofa defensive unit.

My Rams ranked way ahead of your beloved Saints in every Category.

And if you take away all of the long touchdowns we allowed, we'd have been the best defense in history.

Oh, yeah and we kicked the crap out of Drew Bress, didn't we Rick?

(Rick Venturi removes his head from Haslett's ass and nods in agreement)

I won you idiots a playoff game and gave you nearly a decade of incredible mediocrity and you don't appreciate the Haz-man

Nearly every linebacker I drafted was going to be spectacular, except for the fact they couldn't tackle, lineup correctly or in Courtney Brown's case drink less than two six packs of Coors a day.

Plus I hear Cie Grant is tearing shit up in some semi pro league in Ohio....that mother fucker could fucking hit like a train at Ohio State. All he needed was a brain and to not have the knees of an 80 year old woman.

Anyway, I'm off topic you losers.

My point was to say hello and did you hear I'm going to get interviewed for the Ravens job?

I'm the mother fucking Haz-man and I'm out

Mike Freeman, you're on notice, sir!

From the idiot who gave us this gem about the most overrated players of all time and had the audacity to put Bo Jackson, Reggie Bush and David Beckham on the list (and not Ryan Leaf, by the way)...here comes Mike Freeman of CBS Sportsline with a classic "I've got nothing to write about, so I'll just go through the motions and churn out some non-sense" column. I give to you Freeman's casting call if the Patriots' perfect season were made into a movie.
