If the season were to end today, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would have the first overall pick for the first time since taking Vinny Testaverde out of the University of Miami in 1987. Needless to say, having the first overall pick is a blessing and a burden. The blessing is (depending on your selection) the Bucs will have an immediate impact player on either side of the ball. The burden is the financial...
I was unfortunate enough to have ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown on in the background before the embarrassment at FedEx this week. The “analysts” — Mike Ditka, Keyshawn Johnson, Cris Carter, Tom Jackson — started the show by taking turns shitting on the Redskins via the infinite wisdom they’ve acquired from having played or coached the [...]
The 3-0 Bucs lost three in a row, and needed this in the worst way. They didnt get it. The Bucs blocked a punt but Ronde Barber carelessly was not able to recover in the endzone and all the Bucs got out of it was a safety. Keyshawn Johnson takes a vicous but legal hit, check it out.... Detroit was allowed to stay in the game too long, and late scores sank the Bucs to 3-4, AGAIN, for the 3rd season...
It's not exactly "Give Me the Damn Ball!" that old autobiography by Keyshawn Johnson, the outspoken former New York Jets receiver. Yet each week, Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh spews more dissatisfaction with his first season with Seattle.
Let me take you all the way back to the 2007 NFL Draft. It's our 2nd pick in the NFL Draft. Since Moose was still in Chicago, we only had two capable receivers back then, Steve Smith and an elderly veteran in Keyshaun Johnson playing football for us. We had the choice of two great receivers from USC: Steve Smith and Dwayne Jarrett . Dwayne Jarrett had left USC after his 3rd season and was projected...
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that WR Greg Jennings says he wants the ball more…what WR doesn’t? What Greg Jennings said Monday about his lack of production couldn’t have been more clear unless he conducted his interview with Keyshawn Johnson’s book, “Just Give Me the Damn Ball!” propped up in his locker. “They know how I [...]
He couched it in the nicest way possible. Made sure he flashed that mega-watt smile. But what Greg Jennings said Monday about his lack of production couldn't have been more clear unless he conducted his interview with Keyshawn Johnson's book, "Just Give Me the Damn Ball!" propped up in his locker.
Here is a video of Keyshawn Johnson interviewing Mark Sanchez on ESPN’s Sunday Conversation . Sanchez and the Jets play the Miami Dolphins tonight on Monday Night Football. Kickoff is at 5:30 pm PDT.
You may remember that former Jet and current ESPN mouthpiece Keyshawn Johnson had a tendency to speak his mind in his playing days. Well, this time, when asked by the Daily News’ Rich Cimini, Johnson had some “key” phrases for the newest prima donna WR to don the green and white. “Play football. You ain’t no [...]
Former Jets LB Jonathan Vilma, on the receiving end of a low block by Mark Sanchez that resulted in a $5,000 fine for the rookie QB, discussed the matter on a blog post. Vilma is using PlayMaker Mobile to connect with fans, and here's what he says about Sanchez: “The Sanchez hit was a perfect example of me putting the team before myself. I could have easily gotten up and gone over there and...

We can't put our finger on what is weird about this. Chloë Sevigny and Jason Segel were sipping Champagne, smoking, and smooching at HBO's West Hollywood Emmy party, then left together, arm in arm. Well done, Segal. And Sevigny. An always-on-the-ball Mischa Barton showed up at the screening of Michael Moore's Capitalism: A Love Story asking for tickets, but then realized she'd gone to the wrong...
PR people can vary. Some are kind and go out of their way to be helpful. Some track you down for a week “to educate you” in response to an opinion piece you wrote, “for your benefit” because “honestly, you aren’t worth their time.” Some can just be confusing, which has been [...]
Johnson's comments are just one example of what happens when former players are given a forum simple because they were players. Many of them are untrained and have very little to say so they resort to name calling outlandish statements so that they get attention. The Baltimore Sun employs Mike Preston simply because he played college football. As a result, we get blog entries in which he calls oppossing...
Gifted trash talkers as they are, Keyshawn Johnson and Chris Carter's insults do not always prove true. After shitting all over Baltimore's offense, calling Joe Flacco "a bum," Baltimore exploded...
