What I learned in Week 2 of the NFL season

 In Week 2 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...things have gotten so bad, there's now a group in East Rutherford, New Jersey called "New York Jets Games Matter."

- ...one sign of Armageddon is a game between New England and Seattle which doesn't go down to the final second and result in the loss of at least four nails in the process.

- ...Kirk Cousins is about as consistent as a toddler after missing their nap and currently consuming Lucky Charms in a bowl of Mountain Dew.

- ..., after one game, Justin Herbert is undoubtedly the second coming of Blaine Gilbert.

- ...the Houston Texans' offensive line is so useless, it makes a broken condom look like steel balls.

- ...we now know the answer to the question, "If a team falls in Philadelphia and no one's there to make a sound, did the booing happen?" Yes.

- ...the Detroit Lions are the Detroit Tigers of the Detroit Red Wings.

- ..., after their playing and coaching careers are done, Matt Ryan and Dan Quinn will inevitably co-author the book, "Twice Blown."

- ..., if DeShaun Watson's season to this point were a movie, it'd be titled, "Dead Man Scrambling."

- ...Brett Favre has been called onto recruit Tom Brady to his nursing home.

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 ...
