The Mailman reached a milestone over the weekend, eclipsing the 500,000 hit mark. Thanks to everyone out there who has stuck with us since April, it’s been an enjoyable ride so far. Lately we’ve been slacking off with the site, but we promise to do our best to get back on track in the coming weeks. Looking forward to that 1,000,000…

McCain got beat, bad. I mean it was like one of those boxing matches where the ref has to come in and stop the fight because the opponent is just beating that ass that bad. Well here’s to the next 4-8 years.

Questions still remain, will Jay-Z and Diddy be apart of the president’s new cabinet, or will they strictly be invited over for the first jump off at the White House? Time will reveal the true answer.

Bills Make a Deal…

October 14, 2008

…but not for Tony Gonzalez. I was browsing around profootballtalk.com and saw that the Bills shipped defensive tackle John McCargo to the Colts for an unknown compensation. Exciting. McCargo likely netted them a mid to late round draft pick next year. I wonder what the issue was with Gonzalez and why they didn’t make a deal. My guess is that they felt giving up two draft picks for a position that they just addressed with Derek Fine in the ‘08 Draft was not worth it. Typical Buffalo Bills.


Lions Trade Roy Williams to the Cowboys

October 14, 2008

Really? One Roy Williams wasn’t good enough, now they have two. The Cowboys reportedly gave up a 1st, 3rd, and 6th Round Pick for Williams. Funny how Randy Moss only went for a 4th Rounder. TO and Roy Williams? Interesting, can’t wait to see how pissed they get when Brad Johnson can’t get them the ball in the next 4 weeks.

That Didn’t Last Long

October 14, 2008

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones has been suspended for at least four games for his most recent violation of the league’s personal conduct policy, the NFL announced Tuesday.

The league said Jones was involved in an alcohol-related incident at a Dallas hotel on Oct. 8. Previous reports indicated Jones was involved in an alcohol-related scuffle with a bodyguard assigned to him by the Cowboys, and that hotel employees called the police.

Jones will not be paid during the suspension. Commissioner Roger Goodell will determine the ultimate length of Jones’ suspension after Dallas’ Week 11 game against Washington on Nov. 16.

What happens when you kick the “Girls Next Door” to the curb? You replace them with 19-year old twins, Kristina and Karissa Shannon. Bravo Hugh, bravo.
