UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS: THE RED CHORD’S GREG WEEKS TAKES ON THE N.F.L. IN HIS NEW WEEKLY METALSUCKS COLUMN

Let the Games Begin!!!

Hello there. MetalSucks is letting me bring you my heavily opinionated, and often correct, views on today’s NFL. Once a week, I’ll be letting you know about the upsets, great plays, and ridiculous behavior of our beloved athletes.

The Saints-Vikings re-match was a great way to kick off the season. In a repeat of last season’s NFC Championship game, The Saints, once again, were victorious over There’s Something About Mary actor and AARP-dodger Brett Favre and his Vikings. In Eagles news, I still love seeing Michael Vick lose. Nothing against Philly, but that guy’s a dick.

In AFC news, Tom Brady of my New England Patriots was in a car accident Thursday morning on his way to practice. He and his hair walked away unscathed. The gentleman who ran the red light and hit him, however, is still in the hospital. Even after being in an accident, Brady led the Pats to victory over the reality show-filled roster of the Cincinnati Bengals. I’m hoping Cinci Q.B. Palmer dates a pop star, then goes on vacation with her so we can see T.O. get all misty in the press.

Broncos newbie and holy roller Tim Tebow didn’t do much in their opening game against Jacksonville. He was fun to watch on the Gators, but I’m skeptical about his pro ability.

That’s all for now. See you next week!

Next week’s game to watch: The Pats @ Jets. This rivalry goes far back and should be one not to miss!

Only a Michael Vick defender wouldn’t visit The Red Chord on MySpace.
