Cosmopolitan Magazine had previously chosen Tony Romo as a Fun Fearless Male. Now they have decided to make a list of reasons why the women who read the magazine should watch football. I got a little excited since I occasionally read Cosmo and watch football. I wanted to see how their reasons compared to mine. Here are their reasons: Tony Romo Reggie Bush Adam Vinatieri Jason Taylor Tom Brady Aaron Rodgers Eli Manning Ronde Barber Terrell Owens Matt Leinart Yep.

The Cincinnati Bengals had no chance in the game against the New York Giants played earlier today. At least that’s what everyone around the NFL thought. And I believe most of their fans thought that as well. At least the Bengals didn’t seem to think so. It took overtime for the Giants to 3-0 and thier best start since 2000. As for the Bengals, they start the season 0-3. Where do they go from here? The offense finally showed up for the Bengals. Carson Palmer was 27/39 for 286 yards and a touchdown and Chris Perry rushed for 74 yards. They had the lead at the half up 13-10 and drove down the field with under 2 minutes to go in the game to get the game into overtime with a field goal. Those are some things to be optimistic about. But... [Read more]

Jim Tressel spoke to the media after the walk through in the coliseum. Christopher “Beanie” Wells will not be participating in The Collision At The Coliseum. “I’m not sure he’ll ever speak to me again (but) I think it’s the right thing to do,” Tressel said.Tressel said the decision to not play Wells was his alone after talking the matter over with medical personnel. The coach said he is concerned that letting Wells play might expose him to further risk of injury.” (Dispatch) That leaves Boom Herron, Maurice Wells, and Brandon Saine to carry the load. Beanie will be missed but we wish him the best and hopefully he’ll recover from this soon. [Read more]
