Simply put, my son can?t be tackled. Look at him. Look at that pretty face. Do you want to be the one to damage that? I don?t think so.

Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis promised to remove Manning?s head from his body and vomit down his neck, if given the chance.

?Let me put it this way,? said Lewis from his home in Tampa. ?When we play the Giants, it will be my mission to destroy him. I will stomp on him, spit on him, and crush his hopes and dreams. In fact, if he survives the game I will be very surprised. Don?t forget people?I?m crazy. I killed someone.?

Doesn't sound real, have you read lewis's comment?

Look at some of the "headlines" on the main page of that site. It's the sports equivalent of The Onion.

haha, I can't believe some of you actually entertained the idea that this might be real. :shocked:

It would have been all over every news site. I thought it was funny enough to post, though.

It is funny, and you people are idiots! How could you not tell that this was fake?!

*SIGH*
 
He added: ?Anytime a player does something to look after himself, everybody jump all over him like he selfish. I say players have a right to look out for themselves. Actually, I don?t say it, I scream it. I scream everything, even though I have a perfectly good microphone to amplify my voice.?

That's hilarious.
 
this site has some hilarious headlines

"Bill Belichick Forced To Cut Daughter From Cash-Strapped Family"

"NHL Rules Committee Weighing Ban On Manslaughter"

"PETA Demands Marv Albert Remove Dead Animal From His Head"

LOL! I like this one: "3 Year Old Basketball Prodigy Can't Rebound For Sh!t"
 
As for Eli, he?s been keeping a low profile since the draft, content to let his father do the talking. When reached for comment at his Manhattan apartment, the young quarterback downplayed his dad?s request.

?I understand that people are upset with me right now, but that?s OK,? he said. ?I know my dad really believes in me not getting tackled, and I don?t blame him. You only get one career, one shot at this thing, and we?ve seen what injuries can do to a player. It wouldn?t be fair for me to get injured and deprive America of my excellence, charisma, and beauty. People wouldn?t stand for it. I just hope that we can reach some sort of an agreement on this thing so I don?t have to go to the Arena league. I really can?t deal with all that fvcking Bon Jovi music.?

Manning Sr. has attempted to make a compromise with the NFL regarding his son?s safety. According to the commissioner?s office, he has already contacted the league and suggested Eli wear a flag or hankie in his back pocket so that defenders could attempt to capture it in lieu of actually tackling him.

lol!
 
I haven't seen that site before. There's some hilarious articles in the archives. Much funnier than the Onion has been of late.
