Football Starts: Good. NFL Starts: Maybe not so good

Dolphins v. Steelers is the same matchup they used to have in Filene's Basement for Ugliest Starter Jacket. Rich Eisen just informed me Rascal Flats is America's new supergroup. Take that Asia and Europe. We don't need a foreign supergroup no more. At least NBC figured out HD. I suffered through 2 years of Notre Dame in 480p, but a handful of hicks lip-syncing you can get me in 1080i. Fabulous.

Coors Light, it is so awesome when people cut together an interview with fake questions that match up to the responses in a goofy way. It is, however, not awesome when the interview is fake too. Minus an additional point for the interactions not being amusing anyway.

ESPN, take Berman out back and shoot him. You're with me, tired catchphrases. No one likes him. No one likes you anymore either ESPN. The S is fine. The E sucks. And when I have to consume the S with a sidedish of Joe Morgan eyeballing pitch speeds, you can fuck off with both.

Rich Eisen: "Wow, this place is going wild!" A. It's Pittsburgh. B. They're making noise exactly when they're supposed to, like people laughing at an SNL show. Not wild. Wild is 4 guys raping someone in a park. This is more like bigtime country line dancing. We're not that far from the games being an excuse for Madden.
