THE TOP 10 BEST HELMETS IN THE NCAA/NFL
THE BIG D has less time on his hands to write articles these days. This site has been kept up for me in case I do find more time to write, such as today. I will be back on a full time basis eventually. I’m a frequent sports web surfer when I have the time and lately I have noticed a growing trend on blogs. Everyone seems to be ranking the best helmets in college football, the NFL or both. I figured, why not combine both leagues and give you my top 10 best and worst helmets in the NFL and NCAA combined. That’s using your head, BIG D! Here we go… …CONTINUE READING =>
THE TOP 10 WORST HELMETS IN THE NCAA/NFL
1. ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE
In my opinion, pure red looks like pure _____ (fill in the blank) on a football helmet but there was no originality at all with this one.

As bad as the late Carr years were, those were nothing like what we face in Saturday’s game. It will be… …CONTINUE READING =>
A PASSED OUT DRUNK WAS MORE INTERESTING
Herman Moore, Lomas Brown, Eddie Murray, Chris Spielman, Barry Sanders and now Calvin Johnson all have one thing in common. They were all great players who played for a bad organization (THE WORST ORGANIZATION IN ALL OF SPORTS) - The Detroit Lions. So with The Big D in attendance at Ford Field last Sunday watching all the ex-Lions greats (not to take anything away from players like Lem Barney and Charlie Sanders but those teams were much better then this one) being introduced at halftime, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for all these tremendous talents who once played for such a joke of a franchise and that was more then evident as the Lions suffered an absolute horrific loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars 38-14. I knew the game was going to be like this. I prepared to watch a blowout just like this but that doesn’t mean you ever truly accept it. Fans were booing (hysterically at times)… …CONTINUE READING =>
