NFL GM Donald Trump releases all players and fires all coaches

In an unprecedented move, NFL GM Donald Trump has just released all of his team's players and fired all of his coaches. When asked by ESPN NFL analyst John Clayton on the chaos surrounding his team, Mr. Trump said this:

"Chaos? What chaos? When I became GM of this team, I said I had the best coaches, the best players, and had 100% confidence in them, and I meant it! I still do; I still do. But while I had the best coaches and the best players before, the ones I'm going to get are even bester, believe me! They're going to be the best of the bestest, even bester than the bestest I had before them! Period! Look, I have no team, but it's the best team, and even if I have to play all four positions on the court at one time, or whatever it is, I'm going to make us great again, that I can promise you; that I can promise you."

As the GM began walking away from the ESPN reporter, Clayton asked, "Who are you going after at quarterback?" to which Trump responded, "I'll flip you two dimes and a nickel instead."

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
