What I learned in Week 12 of the NFL season

In Week 12 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...Chris Spielman believes if a defender kills a receiver before the pass arrives, he shouldn't be penalized for interference.

- ...Michigan football sucked harder than a prostitute on a lollipop she nicknamed Shaft.

- ...no one was more thrilled the Cowboys beat the Redskins on Thanksgiving Day than the Natives.

- ...the first rule of All-Talk-No-Fight Club is for Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey to stop talking about All-Talk-No-Fight Club.

- ...not even Chuck Norris can take down Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku.

- ...it's becoming increasingly more obvious that drunkards are in charge of the musical selections at NFL games, for after another Jagerbomb, the selector places the White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army" on repeat.

- ...the curse of Hue Jackson has officially left Cleveland and moved onto Cincinnati. Doctors refer to the curse as Hueorrhea Jacksonitis..

- ..., after the season, Philip Rivers and Tom Brady are bound to participate in a Pay-Per-View event called The Race. Vegas claims there's a 1 in 2 chance this will be just as exciting as The Match between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson.

- ...Saquon will likely be added to the dictionary, meaning, "smoother than the other side of the pillow if the other side of the pillow were a baby's butt."

- ...the Pittsburgh Steelers' team song is apparently the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Give It Away."

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 ...
