Monday Mania - March 2nd, 2009 - Free Agency - The Good, the Bad, and the Stupid
It’s been a week full of surprises and a lot of stupidity as well. One team, the Redskins, are renowned for being dumb and they’ve pretty much kept on track, along with some others. Something I found interesting about this season more than others is a lot of “older” veterans getting resigned or picked up very quickly.

Monday Mania on Tuesday - Feb 24th, 2009 - McDouche, Combine, Warner, Free Agents
What is going on in the world? There are some pretty high class free agents that are on the market as of today and will be solid contributors if not key players for other teams next year. That little combine thing has also been going on and there are definitely some notables. Of course there are other things like what’s going on with Kurt Warner, what is matter with the Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings. Oh, let’s not forget that D. McNabb needs to realize he’s part of the problem in Philadelphia and not the solution.

Defending their Crown: Lions Setting to Repeat!
What a year it was with some huge records being broken. In exceptional fashion, the Steelers completed their Super Bowl trip with being the first franchise to have 6 of the prized Lombardi trophies. There was another team that set another record that is almost equally as impressive. Yes, it’s the Detroit Lions that I’m talking about. Detroit finished its year 0-16 and became the first and only franchise to lose all 16 games in a season. It was hard work but Matt Millen, the owner, coaches, and players all worked very hard for about 5 years to reach this level of infamy. New year, new attitude! Well, Detroit is poised to make another run at 0-16 with their list of stupid off-season moves.

Monday Mania - Feb 16th, 2009 - Favre, Garcia, Taylor, Peppers, Morgan and More!
Most of the NFL is prepping for things like the combine while the media side of it is trying to make soap opera’s out of any type of story that gets to them. I’ll skip trying to make a soap opera out of stuff and just get right down to the nitty gritty of where I think some players are going to end up like Garcia and Peppers and there is a picture of a super hot chick in this column as well. Yeah, go ahead and click the read more just for that!

Monday Mania - TO, A-Roid, Warner, Boldin and More!
The world of sports was lit on fire over the weekend by the amazing competition that is the Pro Bowl. Ha! Yeah, right! Actually, the sports world cannot shut up about A-Roid, er, A-Rod. I will be getting to my take on Alex Rodriguez and the rest of that “steroid thing” along with other topics. Lots of stuff to hit on including Todd Haley, TO, Pacman, Kurt Warner, Anquan Boldin, and more. You gotta keep reading to put the “man” in Mania on this weeks edition of Monday Mania here on Deviant Knowledge.

Monday Mania - SuperBowl Extended Edition
No matter how you slice or dice it Super Bowl 43 was a full 60 minutes of hard fought athletic competition. The Steelers came into the game after finishing the toughest schedule in football 12-4 and the Cardinals had one of the weakest schedules yet finished 9-7. This pairing was very unlikely and many experts predicted a shalacking of those Red Birds from Arizona though I’d say ‘those‘ experts probably aren’t very good at their jobs. If you are a Jim Rome listener you know when I say the Jungle Karma was even and the playing field was neutral. Super Bowl 43, while somewhat sloppy, was an excellent show.

It’s the Super Bowl! Run!!
I’m not a sports guy. Not even a little. Don’t play ‘em, don’t watch ‘em, have no idea who the vast majority of the players are, none of the coaches, and am often confused about from what city a particular team hails. (It’s the Albuquerque Yankees, right?) So maybe this is just me, but I don’t see what the big damn deal is about the Super Bowl.

Super Bowl - Breakdowns by Position
The World Series, the World Cup, the Stanley Cup, the NBA Championship, and even March Madness are pale mortals in America compared to 1 football game every year, the Super Bowl. Super Bowl Sunday is now played almost a full month later in the year than when it originally started and it only seems to build to the game even more. Bart Starr was the first Super Bowl MVP when the Packers defeated the Chiefs at the Memorial Coliseum in a 35 to 10 victory. This years Super Bowl will be “a first” for the Arizona Cardinals with their veteran and former Super Bowl MVP, Kurt Warner at the helm. An almost inconceivable match up at the beginning of the year is actually pretty close. Let’s break down Cardinals vs Steelers.

Monday Mania - NFL News, Notes - Eat Up!
Somehow, someway, we still managed to have a pretty interesting week in the world of the NFL without a single game played. The NFL pulls makes its fans bloodlustful for news and discussion of their favorite sport unlike any other. Well, maybe the futbolers of the “other world” have this type of compelling nature and, in fact, they really do but I’d certainly take American ball any day of the week. So what did happened this week?

Monday Mania - NFL News and Discussion
I’ve decided that there needs to be some “regular” columns around here (think Metamucil) so I will be writing a weekly “Monday Mania” column that is all about the NFL, its games, players, coaches, and anything else that I feel like throwing into the wind. This week I will do some brief summaries of the Cardinals triumph over the Eagles and the Steelers pounding of the Ravens followed with a series of musical compositions performed by Clint Eastwood (http://www.spike.com/blog/ten-things-you-didnt/72769). Well, maybe, maybe not. Why “Monday Mania?” Well, Monday Morning QB was taken (si.com), Manic Monday is poor chorus, and Monday Munchausen’s was just a mouthful, er, wait, too much House.
MMmmm, time for the beef in this meaty Monday sandwich.
