Johnny Jolly Suspended By NFL Indefinitely – 80 Points

Apparently Packers defensive end Johnny Jolly wasn’t making enough money at football, and somehow got tangled up in a major drug operation wherein he allegedly was involved in the “buying, selling, funding, transporting and aiding in the buying, selling, funding and transportation of illegal narcotics including cocaine and marijuana from 2006 through May of 2008.” Am I alone in thinking that’s a strangely dangerous world for a professional football player to get involved in?  Was this part of some drug-kingpin-retirement-plan?  How do you play for the Green Bay Packers and...

Several Days Late On Awarding Points For This… Sorry

You guys are totally allowed to email and alert me to a news item that you think qualifies for points.  Because I can’t catch them all.  And some of them I see, but then I get distracted by a beautiful lady or a bag of chips and forget to award points. So… thanks to Chris and Randy, both of whom reminded me that this event is probably point-worthy: Mike Vick, skipping out on little football camp kids.  I’ve made that a 60 point infraction, because it’s extra cruel.  All those kids wanted to do was learn how to play football from someone that would rather kill dogs, but they...

Charles Woodson Escapes A House Fire, Earns You 55 Points

Packers great Charles Woodson was in Michigan this week with his family, in part to celebrate their (sizable) gift to the Women’s Hospital at the University of Michigan (classy guy, that Charles Woodson… no sarcasm).  And around 4am, the house somehow caught fire. Everyone made it out alive, thank goodness, but the multi-million-dollar home was destroyed.  Yikes. That’s 55 points.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like any of you had him on your team.  Oops.  Oh well. Tweet This...

Three New Infractions Just Added

Hey guys.  Just added a few more infraction events (scoring!) and wanted to tell you about them. Pete Carroll just earned some points for releasing a book–good timing, Pete… next time, try releasing the book BEFORE the scandal comes out about your previous job. Worth 40 points.  I’m sure it’s full of good insight on how to get your championships stripped. Mike Williams of the Redskins will miss the entire year with a medical condition.  Poor guy.  That’s 60 points, though. And Chad Ochocinco has declared this is the year the Bengals will win the Super Bowl–and...

Falcons Linebacker You Haven’t Heard Of Suspended 4 Games – 45 Points

Robert James plays for the Falcons.  I should say he “plays” for them… because he sat out his first season with an injury, and then played most of last year on the practice squad. Regardless, he has now been suspended 4 games for violating the league’s performance enhancing drug policy.  Wah-wah.  That might hurt his chances at making this year’s squad too. But… for you Fantasy UnSports players… 4-game suspensions are pure gold… and worth 45 points.  Enjoy them… if you somehow managed to put him on your roster. Tweet This...

The 2010 NFL All-Screw-Up Team, Preseason Edition

2010 is half over, as is the NFL off-season.  Soon, teams will begin training camp, then preseason games… then it’s on. But in 2010 we’ve already seen an alarming number of NFL player arrests, suspensions, fines, and other general misbehavior.  Therefore, I decided to create the 2010 NFL All-Screw-Up Team, Preseason Edition.  It’s similar to John Madden’s All-Madden team only… you know… here they’re being honored for their propensity to make appallingly stupid mistakes, as opposed to their on-field talent. Without further ado, here is this year’s best players by position—and by...
