In Egypt a Dictator Censors Politics; In the US a Corporation Censors … Football |
| By: emptywheel Monday January 31, 2011 11:09 am |
To be fair, it was not a highly lucrative football game CBS censored. Rather, it was an ad put out by the players’ union opposing the lockout the owners are threatening. I guess anything from a labor union — even a labor union representing a bunch of highly paid celebrities — may count as taboo [...]
The Final Countdown: Championship Sunday NFL Trash Talk |
| By: bmaz Saturday January 22, 2011 8:11 pm |
Yep, that’s right folks, it’s the Final Countdown. No, I am not talking about the sudden exit of the narcissistic scold Keith Olbermann from MSNBC, the news will go on just fine without him, and MSNBC will undoubtedly continue to funnel an endless supply of slime through our teevee sets. No, I’m talking about the [...]
Divisional Playoff Trash Talk |

The most exciting weekend of the pro football calendar, divisional playoff weekend is here!
Wildcard Weekend Trash |
| By: emptywheel Saturday January 8, 2011 1:39 pm |
bmaz was going to put Trash together, but got distracted by the tragic craziness happening in his state. So until he does something more substantive, here’s what I’ve picked in this weekend’s games: NO-SEA: I’m gonna be stupid and pick the home team, the worst playoff team ever. Just a feeling I’m already beginning to [...]
Move Over 2010, It’s A New Year Of Trash Talk! |
| By: bmaz Sunday January 2, 2011 5:16 am |
It is hard to believe 2010 is over and gone already, but nevertheless we have blasted through another year here at Emptywheel full of substantive and important issues on the merits and fun and relaxation with Trash Talking. And another year of football is heading down the stretch. Big props to the TCU Horned Frogs [...]
Trash Talk: Horny Roses Edition |
| By: emptywheel Saturday January 1, 2011 9:50 am |
It’s New Years, and given that there are no PAC-10 teams at the Rose Bowl this year, I’m gonna assume that bmaz is still asleep. So I better get a trash talk up for the college games today, at least, if only to keep scribe quiet. Though I can’t really tell you what to look [...]

Militarized Trash Talk |
| By: bmaz Saturday December 11, 2010 11:13 am |
When Dwight Eisenhower warned of the creeping military-industrial complex, little did he know it would invade even the football trash talk of the liberal blog set. But, yet, here we are this week all soldiered up. That is because the big story today is the Army/Navy game. The reason I say Army/Navy is the big [...]
