Here we go: the first of 22 straight weeks of whoyagetting. The Titans come into Pittsburgh hoping to reverse the trend of the defending champ winning every Thursday night season opener. LenWhale started in with the trash talk early this week, vowing a repeat performance of his retarded sideline antics in Nashville last December. The Steelers, businesslike in their approach, can now counter with a fatback of their own, even if it’s one who probably won’t see many carries in the game. They just need one on the roster to satiate the overpowering Bus lust that will linger forever in the ‘Burgh. So, WHO YA GOT?

STAMPY WANTS TO GET ALL STAMPY AGAIN. He’s off the Patron, but he’s keeping the same angry drunk attitude. LenDale White, last seen not winning a postseason game, claims he’s gonna lower the cleats on a Terrible Towel again if the Titans win Thursday. I dunno, man, that’s not being loyal to James Harrison.

Anyway, as someone who’s destroyed a towel this offseason, I can’t pretend that I’m all indignant that he wants to mar one of our cherished twirly rags, but I do like the fact that it’s LenFail that’s initiating all the talk about what happened last year.

“SMASH AND DASH” SMASHED, DASHED Chris Johnson put the kibosh on the tandem nickname he shares with LenWhale, because White got gravy stains all over it and stretched it out in the legs, leaving DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart to lay claim to the moniker contention-free. LenWhale’s cool with it so long as Ben & Jerry and Harry & David keep their bonds tight.

In other news, some stupid baseball player is stealing The Ben’s mojo. NEXT THING YOU TELL THE BEN HE GOT NEW CALL OF DUTY MAP PACK ON XBOX LIVE AND CAN ALREADY PEW PEW PEW BETTER!

LenDale White claims to have dropped about 25 pounds since last season and is said to be in “amazing” shape. Does this downgrade him to LenOrca? LenGiantSquid? Is the switch to Kentucky Grilled Chicken that dramatic? Either way, it remains to be seen whether he can keep the weight off. This is the guy who eats the food opposing fans hurl at him.

Elsewhere, Jared Allen, being a lifelong wearer of the skinny Wranglers, is more than ready for the arrival of Favre.

“I grew up on a horse ranch. My dad trained horses for 30 years. I like to rock the cowboy hat. People seem to like it too. I’m either wearing a baseball hat or a cowboy hat. You know the tight jeans, you can’t wear boots with baggy jeans plus you got to use the tools in your toolbox and let’s be honest, I’ve got a phenomenal ass!”

We don’t mean to pile on the Titans today, but it’s one thing to eat in excess. That’s bad enough. But when food crosses the line from merely a source of nourishment to full-on plaything and sole source of entertainment, that there’s a problem. And then to set spasms of flinging food to punk and music from Dirty Dancing approaches the pathological. Perhaps one day LenDale White will seize control of his problem and achieve a healthy relationship with his food. And limit his intake to no more than four seals per sitting.
