Truthfully speaking, athletes are otherworldly creatures. If you think about just how long most professional athletes, on average, have been playing said sports you come to the realization that by the time most of them are in their early 20s they’ve reached the pinnacle of their sports. If you’re...

This is true story I’m about to tell. I’m probably going to get into my emotions and all but whatever, let me live. I can remember back in the 7th grade, I was a discombobulated preteen with a lack of guidance and polish. I can distinctly reflect on a few things about myself back at the...

Coming into Super Bowl 47, all that anyone could talk about was the battle of the brothers and the fact that it will be the last game that Ray Lewis will ever play. Controversy has surrounded the central characters all week. The game was built on the Harbaugh brothers and a sibling rivalry. The game...

We’re halfway home. Now that the calendar is edging closer to February and with our love affair with football reaching its climax in a few days, the time has come to focus the majority of our attention towards basketball. Yes, there will be time to still catch up on the college scene, but the...

Perhaps you’ve heard the most recent edition of the greatest podcast in the history of podcasts, The Unsportsmanlike Conduct Show. Perhaps you haven’t. A recurring topic on this week’s show centered around Seattle Seahawks defensive back Richard Sherman. You see, TSFJ – well,...

They say familiarity breeds contempt. After 14 years of mostly successful but ultimately Lombardi-less seasons, a vocal portion of Philadelphia fans came to feel contempt for the familiar fat man that roamed the sidelines for the Philadelphia Eagles. Truth of the matter is Andy Reid was the greatest...

I’m going to attempt to do a weekly power rankings of all the players, coaches and personalities that mattered (or didn’t) during the 2013 NFL Playoffs. These rankings will have no statistical analysis behind them, outside of the amount of times someone may or may not have made my head hurt...

Happy New Year, and welcome to the next time around … for the real world. But as real sports heads, you know the year never ends really. There’s still business to be handled. So with 2012 out the way, whose year is it in 2013? All around there are expectations for the next level to be reached....
