First Church of Football: A Semi-Live Webbed Logging of the Lord's Sport

Punting on First Down presents a sort of live web log of the NFL action on most Sundays. At least the ones on which I have internet access and I don't have to work. So probably not every week but from time to time.
Al and John are having fun on TV, everyone! ZOMG, they are so conversational. I feel like I'm right in the booth. I bet they are BFFs like Dan Dierdorf and Greg Gumbel. They probably do the 2 for $20 deal at Applebees all the time.

Alright, let's see how many picks POFD favorite Jay Cutler throws. I hope at least 300. And that he gets the sulky shit smacked out of him.
Let's Party.

  2. So I am sitting in the one spot in my house where I apparently can steal internet access. I am going to write a very unhappy letter to Comcast tomorrow.

  3. We'll just get the Andy Reid fat joke count started right now.

    Reid into headset: "Donut right hamburger on three. Then we can take a food break. McDermott, get me some god damn butter!"

    ReplyDelete
  4. I get it. It's a sex joke!!!! And this condiment gun won't give you superaids! Tailgate approved!

  5. He might just have a heart attack tonight. Vegas is giving 3-1 odds on it.

  7. Why the fuck is octomom a person of the year? She probably took a fuckload of fertility drugs and had 8 kids. How is that commendable at all?

    ReplyDelete
  8. 15 yard penalty... Andy Reid's gut is in the field of play. (3)

    ReplyDelete
  9. Collinsworth: "That's bump-and-run man-to-man coverage with a single high safety..." "for all you idiots that understand what that means, it means that I'm a genius and I am charming and you better listen to me."

  10. God damn xmass commercials already... Let the suicide begin!

    ReplyDelete
  11. What are you doing this Thanksgiving?

    Oh I'm watching a dog show on NBC.

    AWESOME! Can I come?

    ReplyDelete
  12. You know that guy is getting great head tonight after giving her that diamond.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Dick Johnson told me for away games they rent out a personal jumbo jet just for Andy Reid, due to the weight limit. Its in Andys contract.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I like how Andy Reid is wearing a towel to dry all the sweat caused by the tough workout it is for him to stand up. (4)

    ReplyDelete
  15. You missed my jumbo jet comment so 5.

    ReplyDelete
  16. They act like Cutler is supposed to lead them through the dessert to freedom.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Bell should have got in because Cutler is about to throw another pick in the Endzone.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Cutler leads his teams gloriously down the field for a turnover. That's almost like freedom.

    ReplyDelete
  19. That bitch Windows 7 was my idea and she knows it.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I think Cutler just picks a person to whom he wants to throw the ball before the play and then just throws it to them no matter how many people are covering that person. He did that last year with the Broncos at least 70% of the time.

    ReplyDelete
  21. That third down conversion was probably Cutler's fault.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Cant do that with Devin Hester as your number one receiver.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Cutler with great field position. Lets see what he can do.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Damn. McNabb must be trying out some Cutler tactics.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Couldn't really do it with Brandon Marshall as his #1 receiver, but he tried.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Sure, two feet were down, but was that a football move?

    ReplyDelete
  27. They should put Obama in at QB so the fans will stop booing.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Forte's forte is getting very short gains.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Andy Reid is so fat that the Eagles have to do laps around him every time they drop a pass.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Unstoppable? Eli Manning is. Except when he pressure him or very lightly cover his receivers.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Al Michgaels, I'm with you too, bro.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I don't think that band would have found that perfect symbol crash to complete their song without their Blackberry. All you need is love and a Blackberry.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I still can't believe Al Michaels called Collinsworth "bro." This point should not be ignored.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I miss Billy Mays. He would dominate those tailgating commercials.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Another almost pick from Cutler. Could he possibly survive this game without a pick?

    ReplyDelete
  36. I think you've found yourself a catch 22 too, though, Luke. Those tailgating commercials were created because of Mays' death.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Every time a Bears receiver misses a pass they pretend to take this fake thing out of their pocket and throw it. Maybe they are mimicking taking out a handkerchief for Cutlers tears.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I know but I still want to see Billy Mays fat bearded face.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Speaking of fat. We have not had a Andy Reid fat joke in awhile. Eric I give you the honors.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Christ, I just got here, how many picks does Sulkler have? Come on double digits! Wait, what? None? What the....I thought this was America...

    ReplyDelete
  41. Andy Reid is so fat... When Pluto was removed from the 9 planets, they made Andy Reid a planet just so they wouldn't have to change all the school books that said there were nine planets.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Pretty lame, I know. But I was put on the spot and had no inspiration.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Kobe Bryant is still a Person of the Year for NBC? Are you fucking kidding me? How many chicks does a guy gotta rape before he dances himself off any POY list?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Cutler almost completed a past to the ghost of Darrent Williams. Too soon?

    ReplyDelete
  45. Man, Sir Sulks-a-lot is getting awfully mopey out there on the football field...

    ReplyDelete
  46. Darrent Williams jokes. Stamp it! POFD approved

    ReplyDelete
  47. I'll give it a shot, Luke...

    Andy Reid is so fat, he's probably going to die earlier than you or I due to the cholesterol clogging the arteries of his heart.

    Too real?

    ReplyDelete
  48. I wonder if they say don't drink alcohol in excess with Cialis because they fear a customer will get whiskey dick and never use it again.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I remember watching the NFL networka few years back and thinking "this Collinsworth guy is a smug asshole, I hope they don't put him on Sunday Night Football so I'd have to watch him every week."

    ReplyDelete
  50. Nice try dude. Go google Yo mama fat jokes and change yo mama to Andy Reid. Find me a good one.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Alright, fine.

    Andy Reid is so fat he had to go to Sea World to get baptized. ZING!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I would hate to be Collinsworth's psychiatrist. Listening to that crap every week for an hour straight. At least we have football to ease the pain.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Another Sulk montage!!! NBC came to play today...

    ReplyDelete
  54. What? Cutler must have confused Kellen Davis with one of the Eagles secondary. He was supposed to throw it to Asante Samuel on that play.

    ReplyDelete
  55. 0 interceptions for Cutler? The end is near. We didn't listen!

    ReplyDelete
  56. Anybody else think the head ref kinda talks like Tom Brokaw?

    ReplyDelete
  57. Collinsworth at his last psychiatrist meeting: "Hyuck hycuk... I had a dream that the Titans were in cover 1 and Justin Gage ran a fly route, but Vince Young checked down to Chris Johnson. Does that make me gay? Yesterday, I was watching footage of Peyton Manning when he was playing college ball at Tennessee and I thought, this guy isn't too short to be a good NFL quarterback."

    ReplyDelete
  58. That could be true, Luke. We have to ask ourselves though, could John Cusack play Jay Cutler in a movie about his life?

    ReplyDelete
  59. That reminds me. I need a beer. And a sandwich. Why don't they package beer and sandwiches? God damn it, case of Pacifico, at least come with a taco or something.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Jon Gruden here...

    Speaking of Peyton Manning, THIS GUY is a FOOTBALL PLAYER. I call him "The Sheriff" because THIS GUY is so good at PLAYING THE GAME of FOOTBALL...

    ReplyDelete
  61. I believe we just invented a new segment to our site. The Collinsworth Sessions.

    ReplyDelete
  62. See? This is the conundrum we have. Gruden is so much easier to make fun of. Collinsworth is just a smug prick. But if we change the live blog to monday, won't be on church day. Unless it's some kind of crazy Second Day Adventist Church of Football.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Well how good is John Cusack at curling up in a ball and crying himself to sleep every night? Because if he can do that then he has Cutlers life down pat.

    ReplyDelete
  64. I mean, have you seen Say Anything? Or Serendipity? Yeah, he'd be fine.

    ReplyDelete
  65. We could all become Jehovah's Witnesses. Do they reserve Sunday to not celebrate Christmas and birthdays?

    ReplyDelete
  66. We could just have the I Hate Gruden Chat Room. We don't even need to talk about football, just rant about Gruden and how much we hate him.

    ReplyDelete
  67. John Madden would love that. John Madden loves fat people falling down! But doesn't everybody, really?

    ReplyDelete
  68. Madden was the guy who made sure to peg the fat kid in dodgeball games.

    ReplyDelete
  69. "I was like BOOM, I hit that kid like a mack truck"

    ReplyDelete
  70. Andy Reid is so fat... when he chews gum it causes an earthquake in Japan. (7.5)

    ReplyDelete
  71. Nice... Way to remember after the fat kid comment.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Andy Reid is so fat.... His family took a picture of him last xmass and its still printing. (8.5)

    ReplyDelete
  73. Is spoken word cool now? I don't understand NBCs producers at all.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Dang, he must be printing it out on a Toshiba printer.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Nooooo! A first down! Now Cutler won't be able to drive his team all the way to the one to win it and then throwing an interception!

    ReplyDelete
  76. Andy Reid wants to challenge the ruling on the field that the Eagles missed a first down by five yards.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Uh oh! It's Cutler intercepticomeback time.

    ReplyDelete
  78. What's the over/under on plays before the Sulk Monster tosses a pick? I'm setting it at 5 and taking the under.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Wow I am going to write Comcast a really angry letter tomorrow. I almost missed talking about Cutler choke time.

    ReplyDelete
  80. Only 52 more seconds for Cutler to throw an interception. We need more time...

    ReplyDelete
  81. I found some internet Californee way...

    ReplyDelete
  82. Yes!!!!! A game-losing pick! Finally!

    ReplyDelete
  83. Only Cutler has the flair for drama to wait for the final drive to throw a pick.

    ReplyDelete
  84. I don't even think Cutlers Mom will call him tonight to give him comfort after that loss.

    ReplyDelete
  85. McNabb in Cutler's ear: "Just nod a lot and I'm not gonna say anything. Keep nodding. Blah blah blah blah blah. Nod. Nod."

    ReplyDelete
  86. You think Cutler has enough money to find a hooker in Chicago that will still sleep with him?

    ReplyDelete
  87. Alright, I think that just about concludes our evening of worship. Any last thoughts, bros (as Al Michaels would say)?

    ReplyDelete
  88. Cutler sucks, Andy Reid is fat, We didn't listen!

    ReplyDelete
  89. DeSean Jackson: "I thought, 'me fumble ball? dats unpossible."

    ReplyDelete
  90. Whales are jerks. Especially belugas. Alright folks, until next time, party on.
