Face of the Franchise for the Dead (G-)Men Walking

Usually, it’s bad luck to go out and buy conference championship gear. Superstition says fans who do that don’t get a chance to buy anything else. Giant fans, go sick.
 
5. Y.A. Tittle – I don’t know how good he was, but he’s in the Hall of Fame. He makes the list because he’s in one […]

The Face of the Franchise Wants to Kiss Your Mom

It’s no wonder that Larry David is the biggest Jets fan in the world.  I am convinced that every episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm is a metaphor for the Jets Franchise.  The best defensive player in our history, Mo Lewis (barely misses this list), once knocked the crap out of Drew Bledsoe in a game…which started the […]

Face of the Franchise and a 99 BreakTackle Retires

Mike Alstott announced his retirement from the league today. Tony Dungy’s ‘Buc Ball’ was a vicious combination of stout defense and a whole lot of Alstott. He was as instrumental to the resurgence (or just surgence; they were consistently horrible until 1996) as anyone. So where does he finish as the Buccaneers’ Face of the […]

Face of the Franchise for the Coldest City in America

Playing a game at Lambeau is like running the Iditarod, like literally running it, while being attacked by polar bears made of ice. It’s one of a handful of stadiums that has a natural home field advantage. So other than dying of hypothermia, what is the first thing you think of when you think Green […]
