A kad već Marušić spominje tupave logotipe (koje ja ne vidim Confused), evo i jedne genijalne ideje za podjelu lige po divizijama, na koju sam nabasao prošle godine na jedno SEA forumu LOL

I've been thinking that the way the NFL is organized is a little bit flawed. I mean, the Miami Dolphins, stationed in the Southernmost city of any NFL team, aren't even in the AFC South. Come on! I think a better way to organize the teams would be by team name. I mean, haven't you ever wondered which "bird" team is the greatest? If there was an NFC Bird division, the winner would be the best Bird team, and would have to play in the playoffs against the AFC bird teams, to win the Bird Conference Championship. (I bet everyone can guess the best bird....SEAHAWKS!!!!) THAT would be awesome. Or at least only as arbitrary as things are now.

Plus, some of the team names are ridiculous, and this gives me an opportunity to make fun of them for it. So if I could reorganize the NFL, the divisions would look a little something like this:

Bird Division

Baltimore Ravens
Philadelphia Eagles
Atlanta Falcons
Seattle Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals

Things Dorothy Would Be Scared By Division (a.k.a. The Oz Division)
The Detriot LIONS

The Cincinnati BENGALS (ya know, Tigers)

The Chicago BEARS
The Jacksonville Jaguars (they're like Tigers, almost. We could change their name to the "Oh Mys")

The Completely Unthreatening Team Names Division

THE INDIANAPOLIS COLTS - What is the point of naming your team after a horse? Are you saying that you want to be ridden? Is your message "Come play the Colts, we'll . . . take you somewhere really quickly, by early 19th Century Standards"?
THE DENVER BRONCOS - See above, plus we all know that horses playing football is not threatening, it's just funny.
THE BUFFALO BILLS - Not only are you named after the guy who was man enough to shoot defenseless animals in huge numbers just to earn the right to steal his name from someone else, but you don't even use this trigger-happy "hero" as your mascot. Instead, you use said defenseless animal. "We're the Buffalo Bills! We're stupid and herd in large numbers! Come make us endangered!"
THE CAROLINA PANTHERS - Panthers are a jungle predator just like the Tiger or the Jaguars, but with half the body mass of a tiger and half the speed of a Jaguar. Plus, Baghera of The Jungle Book was a total *****. Watch out for the Panthers, they'll . . . climb a tree on your ass!
THE ST. LOUIS RAMS - They can be shepherded.
THE NEW YORK JETS - They'll, uh, do a fly-over? Maybe they'll bomb you, in which case they should be called the New York B-2s, or F-117s, or something. THAT would be awesome
THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS - I am not scared of most Saints. Except for my namesake St. Patrick. He drove the snakes out of Ireland, God knows what else he can do. But other Saints are people like Mother Theresa. Not really very high on the threat scale. I guess they're named after a standard jazz song (When the Saints Go Marching In), which I think is essentially about how great it will be to die, because Heaven will be much better than the life given black folk. Um, great idea for a team name.
THE MIAMI DOLPHINS - Watch out, they're one of the most intelligent sea mammals! If you get in the water with them, they might lift you with their noses! Or try to hump you!

The Archetypal Characters From Human History Division

THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS - What make the red man red? His uniforms, apparently.
THE DALLAS COWBOYS - Cowboys had a lot of time to dress up in tight spandex and play ball. And they really loved stars. At least the Oklahoma State Cowboys actually have a cowboy for their logo.
THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS - When they weren't dumping tea into oceans, they were time-traveling to the future and kicking cowboys' asses.
THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS - Remember when Leif Erikson discovered Minneapolis?
THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS - Based on Kansas's history, I would have gone with The Kansas Carpetbaggers, Scalawags, John Browns, or just The Bloodies. Or are the Chiefs from Missouri? Damn unoriginal city namers.
THE OAKLAND RAIDERS - Ah yes, California history is full of pirates.
THE TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS - Well, I think there were pirates in Florida. And they loved two things: treasure, and football. And booty (both kinds). And the slave trade.

The What-The-Hell-Does-Your-Name-Even-Mean Division

The Cleveland Browns (who primarily wear orange)
The San Diego Chargers (whose logo is a bolt of lightning)
The Green Pay Packers (whose logo is a G . . . and cheese)

The Teams Inanely Named After Site-Specific Groups of People Division
The Pittsburgh Steelers
The San Francisco 49ers
The Houston Texans (the Texas team Texans don't care about)

The Mythical Creature Division

The New York Giants
The Tennessee Titans

Ovaj Don Juan je grb od Tampa Bay, mislim da je iz istog vremena kad su imali i one odvratne gay narančaste dresove, kad su došli u NFL

A onaj logo Stealersa podsjeća malo na njihovu maskotu, glupog izgleda i ekstremno glupog imena - Steely McBeam Big%20smile

Detroit columnist resigns after Lions flap

A Detroit News sports columnist has left the paper, two weeks after he was criticized for asking Lions coach Rod Marinelli if he had wished his daughter married a better defensive coordinator.

DETROIT —

A Detroit News sports columnist has left the paper, two weeks after he was criticized for asking Lions coach Rod Marinelli if he had wished his daughter married a better defensive coordinator.

Rob Parker resigned last week, managing editor Don Nauss said Tuesday. Parker declined to comment on his departure.

Joe Barry is Marinelli's son-in-law and was defensive coordinator during Detroit's 0-16 season. On Dec. 21, after a 42-7 loss to New Orleans, Parker asked Marinelli about his daughter's decision to marry Barry.

"Anytime you attack my daughter, I've got a problem with that," Marinelli said.

Parker said he wasn't trying to hurt the coach or his family. He wanted to "lighten the moment" after a rough loss.

Nauss, however, said the question was "inappropriate and unprofessional."

"We said we were taking the matter seriously and we would deal with it," he said. "Draw your own conclusions about what transpired. I have to emphasize Rob submitted his resignation and we accepted it. It was a voluntary action."

Marinelli and his son-in-law were fired after the Lions' winless season. Barry's father, assistant offensive line coach Mike Barry, also was dismissed.

Parker's question drew on-air fire from Fox football analyst Terry Bradshaw, who called him a "total idiot."

Even by the absurd standards of the BCS, having voters not bother to watch an undefeated team play a single game is a new low.

Whether Utah deserved to be ranked No. 1, 2 or 25 isn’t the point of this argument. The Utes deserved to have voters at least see them.

The coaches and Harris polls make up two-thirds of the BCS rankings. The average of six computer formulas is the other third.

Frustration with the BCS is often pointed at those faceless “computers.” It’s the human opinion polls, however, that are most subject to bias, laziness or disinterest.

The computers can’t help but plug in Utah’s info. One of them even had the Utes ranked No. 2.

The 61 voters in the coaches’ poll and 114 in the Harris weren’t as kind. They often voted on what they thought Utah might be, not what they saw Utah actually was. In a testament to copy-cat voting, almost everyone had the Utes between No. 7 and No. 10 in the polls.

Then many tuned in Friday for what they admit was the very first time and saw reality wasn’t perception after all. This wasn’t some lucky mid-major team; the Utes were big, strong, fast and talented.

“I wouldn’t say I probably was wrong. I was wrong,” said Housel, a former Auburn athletic director who had the Utes ranked 10th.

Blue, screwed and tattooed

Months have passed since Big Lo checked out of the hospital but on a brilliant, sunny November afternoon, he is feeling another needle in the flesh: He is getting tattoos of Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck and fullback Leonard Weaver to join the one of safety Jordan Babineaux.
