Cool Helmets

by

The NFL Draft is done, so now we wait. And wait, and wait and wait.
Supposedly the NFL 2020 dates are to be announced on May 9th, but it doesn’t seem very likely that things will be the same.

So to keep things all things NFL and fun, we thought we would share some of the awesomeness out in the NFL community. Take a gander at some of these cool helmets by artist Ted Hyman.
He has taken a very awesome approach to designing these, and it shows that he is an incredible artist.

While no NFL team would be willing to change their logo’s to a crowd-designed format, it is amazing to see what the fans can do when they are bored.

At the very least, it would be cool if these helmets could be added to video games, or other forms of media.

Which one of these helmets is your favourite?

Extended Quarantine Podcast

by

The world is in need, and only the NFL can save us.
Ok, a bit dramatic-but that’s how many of us sports fans feel during this bereft period of no sport.

Wade & Ryan safe distance this podcast as they talk about all things corona & NFL.
They break down loads of stories, forecasts, projections, and generally just talk crap for a half-hour. (good crap though).

Some of the stories the guys touch on in this episode:

XFL is Dead

We hardly knew ye. Despite a healthy looking start, the XFL is a now dead league as the creditors circle the McMahon family home. Several suitors are thought to want to buy the league, but is it too late? If the WWE is considered an ‘essential service’, surely the XFL could have tried to claim that too?

San Fran is Lucky

A leading scientist claimed that if the 49ers had won the SuperBowl, then there might have been a huge corona spike in the area due to the parades and gatherings. Kansas City doesn’t have a massive outbreak, so not sure the logic here.

The Browns

A new uniform, and maybe a new attitude? How are the Browns going to overcome a hyped up season that fell apart quicker than a pair of underwear you have been wearing since the virus began. What do they need to do to make their team successful?

Gronk

Gronk smash. Gronk win belt. Gronk like CBD. What about the rumours he would suckle up to TB12 again in Tampa for a repeat of their Boston success? Gronk is doing fine, everyone wants to be like him,

NFL Win Projections

The folks at William Hill have made their predictions for NFL wins next year, and some of the results might surprise you. The guys look at all of the predictions and see how realistic they are.

We will be doing some more content on the draft throughout the week, listen laugh subscribe.
Stay safe, sane and keep the faith for the 2020 season.

XFL is Dead

by

Ding Dong the McMahon dream is dead.
Corona has claimed another sports victim, and this time it was the XFL.

The XFL was thought to be a much bigger and improved version of the AAF and was actually starting to see some uptick in viewership and fanbase, but like any sport in this new world, the weight was too much.

There was quite a bit of pomp and ceremony as the league was announced, and the TV rating rivalled that of NBA games. Like any sport in the first year, you are defined by how the season is reflected upon, and this was just a brutal end to a ceremonial start.

Much like Vince McMahon himself, the game was loud, brash, and admired by middle class America.
With shots of fans using beer luges with their cups, or the viscera trash-talking on the field, and scantily clad cheerleaders drew fans in after an exciting NFL season.

As corona spread across the USA, it was too risky to keep showing the games, and eventually chapter 11 caught up with the the league. It is dead, done and dusted.
Not even The Undertaker is willing to be associated with it now.

Vince and his family were able to convince Florida legislators that the WWE was an ‘essential service’, you wonder if her tried that with Trump as well.

Farewell XFL, we barely knew you.
