Antonio Cromartie reflects on the Matt Cassel touchdown dance.

I caught Burn After Reading on Friday. I’m duty-bound to catch anything by the Brothers Coen, and this didn’t disappoint. Brad Pitt further established that he’s always at his best when he’s playing a character who’s intentionally crazy or stupid. If you happened to have been dissuaded from seeing it because of the drubbing it received from fuckwit critics, you’d be well served to reconsider.

In other putative attempts at comedy over the weekend, Tina Fey, for whatever reason, got high marks for her eminently mediocre Sarah Palin impression on SNL, which was no better than the lesser send-ups you can find of the GOP VP candidate on YouTube. Michael Phelps, as anyone could have guessed, was a Bawlmer ‘bortion as host.

Feel free to add note anything from today’s games that strikes you as comedy of the uproarious sort. I’ll go out on a limb and say the entire Chiefs-Raiders game might qualify.

Some tangential observations after the jump. (more…)

You know, I didn’t realize so many homophobic prisses read KSK. Back when we founded this site, the commenters were a more rugged breed. We could look at pictures of beautiful men like me or James Franco or me and say, “That fella looks damn good,” and no one accused you of being gay. We were more secure in who were. There was nothing wrong in celebrating another man’s strength — and I contend that there still isn’t. Why, saying that you’d have anal sex with Tom Brady doesn’t make you gay. It just makes you an average Pats fan.

Anyway, for all you “straight” guys who just want to look at pictures of tits (yeah, right), I present to you Love of the NFL’s Top Ten Cheerleading Squads. Let’s take a look at their rankings.

10. Bengals
9. Cardinals
8. Patriots
7. 49ers
6. Broncos
5. Panthers
4. Bucs
3. Cowboys
2. Chargers
1. Dolphins

Obviously, “half-assed” is a kind phrase for this list. It’s more like quarter-assed. Everyone knows that all three NFC East squads (Eagles/Skins/Boys) should be in the top five. And the Ben-Gals belong in the top ten like sports bloggers belong in People’s Sexiest Man Alive issue. And while I’d put the Chargers Girls in the top spot, I’ll admit that there’s some compelling evidence to support Love of the NFL’s claim.

That’s a fine looking Dolphin. I’d like a closer look at her blowhole. And by “blowhole” I could mean any number of things, really.
