Random Football Notes

Here some random facts that are interesting in how surprising they are:

- Not only is Brandon Lloyd second in the NFL in receiving yards, he only has 2 less yards than the league leader- Reggie Wayne
- In a league that has Chris Johnson and Adrian Peterson, the league rushing leader is Arian Foster. And he has over 100 more yards than second place Rashard Mendenhall.
- Run DMC hasn't sucked this year. Hell, that's surprising to me
- Mark Sanchez also doesn't suck. And I saw him play in Week One.
- Michael Vick has looked like an awesome football player
- Laughing lowers levels of stress hormones and strengthens the immune system. Six-year-olds laugh an average of 300 times a day. Adults only laugh 15 to 100 times a day. No one laughs at my jokes.
- The Indianapolis Colts have two loses. The Chicago Bears have one. The Kansas City Chiefs have none.
- Speaking of the Bears, when Jay Cutler is healthy, they actually look like they have a top offense.
- The Rays, a team that looked like the best team in the MLB regular season will probably get eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
- I actually beat DME in a fantasy baseball league. Probably the first and last time this will ever happen.
- London Fletcher is consistently top five in the NFL in tackles- and the same holds true through the first four games
- A defense Seattle Seahawks player actually has some good stats- Chris Clemons has the fifth most sacks in the NFL
- I got offered Shonn Grenne in exchange for LT. And I turned it down. Even more surprising, I probably made the right decision.
- Every time you sneeze some of your brain cells die. Every time you utter the words, 'Wow Joe Morgan/ John Madden, that was very insightful' a little bit of your soul dies.
- Matt Hasselbeck has more rushing TDs than Steven Jackson, Michael Turner, Frank Gore, Mo Jo, Jonathan Stewart, Pierre Thomas, and Jamaal Charles
- If you are right handed, you will tend to chew your food on your right side. If you are left handed, you will tend to chew your food on your left side.
- Matt Forte is awful in the red zone. Oh wait, that's the exact opposite of surprising.
- Someone named "Austin" is #3 in receiving yards- and his first name is not "Miles". It's Austin Collie.

  1. the left scrotal sac is larger than the right because the left testicular vein enter the renal vein, while the right testic vein goes directly to the inferior vena cava

  2. I read your tweet. Very interesting. I think I need to do some factual checking for myself.
