Sentences we thought we would never write: “Ted Ginn, Jr. is your Meast of the Week.”
I know, I know… I’m as surprised as any of you, but yet here we are. What a crazy old world. Ginn became the first player in league history to score two 100+ yard touchdowns of any type in a game. And hoo boy, is he fast. Watch…
Just. Wow.
Are you kidding me? He looked like he still had another gear he didn’t even need. Holy shit! Where in the hell has this been the past couple of years? And did you see the way he stopped short on the second TD? Fuck me! Go ahead and watch it again, I’ll wait… Christ, you don’t see moves like that very often. Is Ginn about to go on a Dante Hall/Devin Hester type unholy tear for the rest of the season or was this just a fluke? Maybe this guy has been languishing in Miami for a reason? Crap, I don’t know. I need to watch this video a few more times and then lay down for a while. Maybe take a nap.
Your Least of the Week is SOSA Rams cornerback James Butler who understands the touchback rule the way I understand Chinese algebra…
FF to the :50 second mark for the fail.

Ted Ginn – the best receiver in the NFL when catching the ball isn’t a requirement.
But he can torch guys.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:40 am
Dayum.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:44 am
Yeah, St. Louis was trying to go winless, taking that safety was proof. But nobody out-stupids the Lions for very long! Combine that with the Tennessee win and all that’s needed is for the Bucs to eek by someone and the 2008 Lions place in NFL lore will be secure for another year. Break out the bottles of whatever it is you use to celebrate futility!
November 4th, 2009 at 10:48 am
Goddamn, do I love it when refs get trucked.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:49 am
Stopping short is Frank Costanza’s move.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:55 am
Notice how none of Ginn’s teammates tackled him after he scored the first touchdown, thereby preventing a blowout loss to the Florida Gators and securing Big Ten dominance for years to come.
/still bitter
November 4th, 2009 at 10:58 am
How about outrunning one… two… … … defenders.
I thought there’d be more.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:58 am
I think anyone who owns Steve Slaton on their fantasy football team would agree he was least of the week.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:06 am
I got him, I agree.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:10 am
@Upstate: Least of the Year, perhaps? Or is J-Big-Mac still the frontrunner for that (dis)honor?
November 4th, 2009 at 11:16 am
@Charlie Sweatpants: I believe the beverage of choice for futility is Mad Dog…the peach kind.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:16 am
If there was a special Fantasy Least it would have to be Slaton.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:24 am
wtf? peyton should be the meast, its not even close
November 4th, 2009 at 11:34 am
Nice tackling, Jets. I especially liked how this guy was able to stop, backup, go sideways, have a FUCKING SODA AND AN ORDER OF FRIES and still had time to cruise to the house on that second one.
That was lame coverage, assholes.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:40 am
“the way I understand Chinese algebra…”
Math is the universal language that no one understands.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:42 am
The fantasy least of the year has to be Roy Williams
November 4th, 2009 at 11:46 am
Break out the bottles of whatever it is you use to celebrate futility!
Varnish?

Nah, Romeo Crennel is more of a Coors guy.
November 4th, 2009 at 11:56 am
My entire Seahawks team needed to be the Least. This shit is so unfair. wtfbbqsauce.

I benched Ginn before the last week because he never produces
/loses by 2 points
//drinks varnish
November 4th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
The Rams Lions game is like a fail sandwich…
And Ted Ginn’s TD is the direct opposite of the percentage of people starting him in a FF league.
November 4th, 2009 at 12:18 pm
some where cam cameron celebrates…

SOSA? Did I miss a meme?
November 4th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Same Old Sorry Ass Rams, as popularized by Messrs. Norton, Stubblefield and Sanders.
November 4th, 2009 at 12:45 pm
Ginn did to my Jets what I did to that very drunk sorority girl one time that was just BEGGING for it, you know?
No? Just me?
Mmmmmm….
Fantasy Least of the year is Kevin Walter btw
November 4th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
I think Steven Jackson should have had a shot at Measty of week. He is crippled by his own team and still produces…ok yes it was against the Lions….
November 4th, 2009 at 1:02 pm
Let’s go to the judges….yes, yes we can accept varnish. Also acceptable: ’sterno’ or ‘flaming sterno’.
November 4th, 2009 at 1:41 pm
I am calling bullshit.
Not on your Meast pick. Not on your least pick.
There is no way in hell that the Rams/Lions game had 4 minutes, 6 seconds of highlights.
Are they counting the other games’ highlights they show during halftime?
November 4th, 2009 at 2:01 pm
When Ginn hit that burst around the 25 in the first clip, he accelerated like Wile E. Coyote on an Acme rocket.
Is Butler’s move worse than the Dan Orlovsky safety? I’d have to say yes. At least Orlovsky could be accused of being blissfully ignorant of where he was standing, but Butler had to know he was crossing back into the endzone.
November 4th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
Wait, Mike Bell wasn’t the FF Least?
November 4th, 2009 at 2:54 pm
Damn. On that second TD, Ginn beat the last defender before the play-caller could finish saying that he needed to beat the last defender.
November 4th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
…I left Ginn on the bench.
Fuck.
FUCK.
CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNT
November 4th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
@ Reggie Bush’sPimp: He was for me. And my oponent had Pierre F. Thomas.
That Rams – Lions game should’ve ended 3-2.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:13 pm
Fantasy Least of the Year has to be Jim Sorgi. Useless…
November 4th, 2009 at 4:14 pm
ugggh I hate Nantz and Simms. Nantz has to put serious effort into even sounding excited while calling a great kick return. If only Gus Johnson had been calling that game.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:40 pm
No argument here. If there’s something more measty than running back a pair of 100 yard kickoff returns, I’m not sure what is.
Well, maybe hitting a guy so hard you actually kill him. And then ripping his heart out and eating it on the field. I think they’d have to retire the award if that happened.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
Speaking of Leasts…
How much worse does Horse Balls have to play to get benched? (It’s not like he has so far to go) For the third time in four weeks, he completed a single-digit number of passes — and the fourth week he had all of 12. He has a total of 29 completions in 4 games. And Mangidiot won’t bench him.

that first video seemed like a real life interpretation of a tecmo bowl play
November 5th, 2009 at 2:30 am
James Butler has a Super Bowl ring. Just thought I’d throw that out there.
November 5th, 2009 at 8:23 am
and now he’ll get a 4-year contract extension just because of this game.
FUCK YOU TEDDY!
