Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


Most Ridiculous Article Ever?

Reasons why your team won't make the playoffs on Fox Sports:

Fox Sports Article

First, it bugs me cause it's by definition an entirely negative article.  Second, the Titans entry is ludicrous:

Tennessee Titans. The Titans' offense depends too much on Vince Young. This will be his third NFL season, and teams are learning how to neutralize him. Once he's out of the equation the Titans will be out of the Playoff picture.

WTF?  Did the author not even bother to research anything at all?  We did make the playoffs last year, and I don't think anyone in their right mind would name the reason as being "Vince Young's remarkable play".  I'm not sure they could've written anything more stupid if they'd tried.  That entry might have made sense if it had been published a year ago.  It would have been wrong, but at least it might have been credible.

I hate sports editorials.  Blogs like this have infinitely better content than commercial sports editorials.  Rant off!

That is what is funny

Blogs get slammed for their negativity, but like you said, the entire tone of that article is negative.

Check the schedule

One thing this idiot fox writer is forgetting is that the Titans play a very weak non-division schedule. The Titans were a playoff team last year but came in third place in the division; so their schedule lines up with other third place teams. If the Titans can beat the Jaguars (which I think they can), the Titans could easily go 6-0 to begin the season.

Be careful

People will ridicule you for predicting a 6-0 start.

If we stay healthy, this team will exceed the doubters' expectations...

that being said, ‘why your team sucks’ articles like this get written to draw hits and comments, just ask BBS over at the Colts site.

Just imagine

What would have happened last year if Vince played well. That’s what I’m lookin forward to this season.

Yeah

Hopefully Vince will be better this year and shut those people up.
