I guess it was only a matter of time before a company or organization jumped on the Snuggie craze and who better than the Home Shopping Network to capitalize. HSN has created their version of the Snuggie for professional football and it’s named the NFL Huddler. I would like to warn family and friends right now that there is a strong possibility you will be receiving a NFL Huddler this year from yours truly.

Titans Fake Punt Video
August 10, 2009 by
If you didn’t get a chance to watch the opener of the NFL preseason last night then you missed an outstanding play from the Tennesse Titans punter. Yes, I said the Titans punter! Former Buckeye AJ Trapasso pulled off a stellar fake punt last night in the Hall of Game by going behind his back with the football and ending up with Trapasso entering the end-zone for a Titans touchdown. Tennessee beat the Buffalo Bills 21-18 in large part due to Trapasso’s fake punt early on in the first quarter of the game.
Eli Manning Wins the Lottery
August 5, 2009 by
The New York Giants and Eli Manning have reportedly agreed to a $97.5 million six-year contract extension. This ludicrous deal will make him one of the top three highest paid players in the NFL with an average salary of roughly $15.3 million a year. An individual close to the discussions who asked to be anonymous since the deal hasn’t been signed says Manning is guaranteed $35 million in the extension which would keep him in New York through the 2015. However, 2015 is completely in theory because I don’t see Eli handling the New York pressure and expectations for another six years. Eli isn’t close to one of the top three players in the NFL and while he is set for life he won’t be the happiest camper over the coming years after inking this contract.

Tiger Woods Stinks
August 4, 2009 by
Tiger Woods won the Buick Open this past weekend in impressive fashion, but that apparently isn’t the biggest buzz from the weekend of golf on the PGA tour. The bigger news revolves around whether Tiger Woods dropped straight a$$ on live TV or a crazed fan let loosed after his third burrito on the back nine of the Buick Open. Check out this video and tell me who you think dealt the blow. Tiger shakes his leg right before the Bronx cheer is blown, but I still think it is someone from the crowd. Thoughts?
Happy Birthday Brooklyn Decker
August 3, 2009 by
SportsUnderground.com would like to extend major birthday shout outs to Andy Roddick’s new model wife Brooklyn Decker. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model has turned the ripe old of age of twenty-two years old today and she is looking as beautiful as ever. Even though Brooklyn doesn’t technically play a sport, I think we need to figure out a way for her to make our SportsUnderground Sports Babes list because she is hotter than a Prada bag from Canal Street. Happy birthday girl!

LenDale White Likes the Worm
August 3, 2009 by
Bruising running back LenDale White of the Tennessee Titans has lost thirty pounds during the offseason and the method he used for shedding the pounds is quite interesting. White a former star for USC told an AP reporter that he completely cut tequila out of his life. “I was drinking a lot,” White, told AP. “I cut that out of my diet all the way. I don’t drink at all.” The weight, he says, “started falling off.” While I don’t believe for one second the only step White took was passing on Patron shots, but if that is the case he must have been one nasty binge drinker. On a side note, this is a contract year for White which is probably why he cut of his friendship for the time being with Jose Cuervo.
