NFL referee Ed Hochuli brought the zebra position back into the spotlight once again after blatantly blowing a call and stealing a game from the San Diego Chargers on Sunday.
This certainly isn’t the first time an official has blown more than their whistle, but it is the timing of the call that demands so much attention.

Philly at Dallas – Expect a hard-hitting battle in this MNF match-up. These two rivals get pumped up enough before going head-to-head but with T.O. trash-talking and Donovan playing at his highest level again, the adrenaline in this match-up is off the charts. Last year the Eagles squeaked out a 10-6 win in Dallas in the “Jessica Simpson” game.

DALLAS – Dallas Cowboy Tony Romo has temporarily settled the turbulence surrounding the quarterback position after week one in the NFL.
Week one was a disaster. A season-ending injury to All-Pro Tom Brady . . . Jeff Garcia being ticked off about being benched . . . Carson Palmer falling flat on his face with a 9 of 24 for 94 yards performance and of course the soap opera surrounding Vince Young.
Romo diverted the media’s attention away from all the negative news after his Good Samaritan act was made public on Thursday.

NASHVILLE – Starting Titans quarterback V.Y. is expected to be out for 2-4 weeks for hurt feelings . . . well the official diagnosis is actually a sprained medial collateral ligament.
Facing the media for the first time since the “implosion”, Young told the Tennessean the media and his mother both over-reacted. Wonder if his mom might unlease a can of whoop-ass on him after she hears that one.

ATLANTA – It’s time for Detroit Lions coach Ron Marinelli to answer a very important question without the same bullshit response, “We’ll just keep pounding the rock.”
I witnessed the Lions implosion in Atlanta and it only took three drives to identify a very serious issue the Lions defense has. It was so obvious, the beer-infested fans at the Georgia Dome, between high-fives and “I wish we could play Detroit every week” comments, even recognized it.

Dear Vince:
We hope you are doing well. There is a lot of concern and confusion surrounding you and your recent ordeal. You’re a young millionaire in a fantasy job yet you feel it is justified to whine about fans booing you; to the extent of refusing to go back into a game.
These concerns have escalated to the point that Coach Fisher now says you will have to earn your starting job back. Looks like you’ve opened a can of worms, Vince.

The SportsClimax.com “Bitch-Slap-of-the-Week” goes to Oakland Raider DB DeAngelo Hall. In a sold-out MNF game on national television, the All-Pro Hall was taken to school and had his ass handed to him by a rookie WR and fellow alumni from VT.

DETROIT -The Detroit Lions season is still days away and they are already finding ways into the national spotlight. ESPN, the NFL Network and media outlets around the country are having a field day with this one.
First of all girls, stop fighting amongst yourselves and what the hell is a grown macho guy like Johnson, doing with a Gucci bag to begin with.
