GMAC Bowl Sets Attendance Record...Or Not
GMAC Bowl Sets Attendance Record...Or Not

FanIQ Blog found this 15 hours ago on www.legendofcecilioguante.com

An Instant Classic for Sure I'm done making fun of the ridiculous number and caliber of bowl games out there. Let's also leave aside the completely illogical sandwiching of the 2008 GMAC Bowl between the likes of Texas-OSU in Tuesday's Fiesta and ...

Offsetting Pass Interference Call? WTF?
Offsetting Pass Interference Call? WTF?

The Money Line Journal found this 42 hours ago on www.legendofcecilioguante.com

Random side note. Watching the Fiesta Bowl and what was once unwatchable has become mildly intriguing. However, what's got me thinking now is the offsetting pass interference call they just dropped in the fourth quarter on the Buckeyes' two-point ...

Back to the Grind, Gridiron Musings

Ed Reed, Man Among Boys Greetings, loyal LCG readers. Hope everyone had a good break and holiday/New Year's celebrations. I'm feeling fat, more fatigued and slightly dumber than I did a few weeks ago. Regardless, I'll be trying to get back into the swing again. For now, 10 shotgun-style ...

The Stars of the Downtrodden

Editoratlegendofcecilioguante Editoratlegendofcecilioguante posted 8 days ago from www.legendofcecilioguante.com

Consider them the All-Stars of the scrap heap. The diamonds in the rubbish. Shining stars in bastions of darkness. Their teams didn't sniff the playoffs. These players aren't booking any sort of travel to Hawaii - at least not for a Pro Bowl. Yet, there are players having great years across the NFL.

Another Jets Season Gone...Like So Many Others
Another Jets Season Gone...Like So Many Others

Editoratlegendofcecilioguante Editoratlegendofcecilioguante posted 9 days ago from www.legendofcecilioguante.com

Another season has come and gone for my Jets. What was once cause for hope, has long since been eradicated. Where there was opporutnity, it has vanished. And now once again the future is...uncertain at best.

Absurd Bowl Game Names a Longstanding Tradition

You think the Papajohns.com Bowl is bad, how 'bout punching your ticket to the Salad Bowl? The Glass Bowl, perhaps? If I was a college football player in the late 40s, I'm sure my dreams would've centered on a trip to the Refrigerator Bowl.

Motor City Bowl Only an Hour Away!

Published 12 days ago by Cecilio's Scribe (noreply@blogger.com) at The Legend of Cecilio Guante

People, the 2008 Motor City Bowl is about an hour from kickoff. Get your popcorn ready. It would take a miracle to get me off of my couch tonight. No, not really.

Plaxico's Wife May Want to Consider a Career Switch

Editoratlegendofcecilioguante Editoratlegendofcecilioguante posted 14 days ago from www.legendofcecilioguante.com

With a hat tip to Doug Gottlieb on ESPN Radio who mentioned this while filling in for Tirico and Van Pelt today, maybe Mrs. Burress should re-consider her chosen career path. What does she do you might ask? Duh, she's an attorney. This begs many questions, questions. We simply don't have the time...

Torture is Being a Fan of the Jets (and Mets for good measure)

Editoratlegendofcecilioguante Editoratlegendofcecilioguante posted 16 days ago from www.legendofcecilioguante.com

A rant. Plain and simple. Unadulterated. And for those familiar with my allegiances, about as predictable as an ill-advised, off-balance, cross-field, leave-your-mouth-agape-in-horror Favre pick.

A New Chapter in the Tale of Michael Oher About to Be Written

Editoratlegendofcecilioguante Editoratlegendofcecilioguante posted 18 days ago from www.legendofcecilioguante.com

There was a time when Michael Oher didn't know his own name. This coming summer, Roger Goodell will likely call it out early in the first-round of the 2009 NFL Draft. And, just like that, a young man who was without a family, a school, a home or a future less than 10 years ago will sign a contract..

How'd you like to be Bill Cowher right about now? Back in January of 2007, the 15-year Steelers coach and face of the modern Stillers organization announced he was stepping down. In an age where "NFL head coach" and "stability" go together like Stephon Marbury and the New York Knicks, Cowher...
