So I’m browsing through forums that have directed people to my blog, and I came across a UH forum in which someone posted this: (Click to expand) Just wanted to clarify to my readers that I am not the person who sent the blogosphere and sports writing worlds spinning with those god-awful concepts. Most of… [Read more…]

I took down my old designs because I wasn’t entirely pleased with how they looked. So, I taught myself how to use Illustrator, and started hand drawing some logos. Yes, it’s a lot of work, but it’s great experience, and it’s a lot of fun for me. What I came up with surprised me. I… [Read more…]

If there’s one thing the Lions have done right in the QB department the past few years, it’s drafting great character guys. Joey Harrington? One of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. Drew Stanton?

I like it for a few reasons: Depth. You have Matt Stafford healthy, holy hell this is a threatening WR corps. Insurance. CJ… [Read more…]

Cue the puns. The Detroit Lions now have the most overly-punned defensive line in the NFL. SuhPer Bowl? Fairley Suh-n. Credit goes to the random RT I saw earlier today. Initially, I was furious at the pick– given we had some solid corners on the board, and offensive linemen as well. After some careful thought… [Read more…]

I don’t know about you, but I have often wondered what the Olympics would be like with American football. Sure, there’s soccer, there’s hockey, but past that, there’s not a lot of super-competitive and fun to watch team sports. On another note, I was recently thinking about designing an entire leagues-worth of uniforms for a… [Read more…]
