The excitement of football being back led to some good and bad picks in our first week of our Lubbock football expert pick'em. That excitement carried over into week two.

Monday nights, FMX and Hooters have it going on for football, beer and the wings. We have gone old school and busted out the classic FMX finger goal kicking contest and Hooters does the Monday night blitz, offering up all-you-can-eat nearly boneless world famous wings, and ice cold beers served up by the lovely Hooters girls.
It wasn't a bit, it wasn't part of the script and it wasn't fake. Last night Jerry "The King" Lawler suffered a heart attack at the announcers table during a live event. More after the jump.
I hate when players celebrate. I think it makes you look like a moron. It makes you look like a newbie. And in some cases, it backfires. Sure Vernon Davis scored, but his little celebration sure made him look silly. More after the jump.
Our poor sports guy at 1340thefan want Tech to succeed so badly, they're willing to realllllllllllllly stretch the facts. Okay, technically the facts are the facts, but you have to dig just a little deeper to see what's really going on. More after the jump.
SportsCenter commercials are legendary and this one does not disappoint! Off the wall, behind the scenes and putting on 'no airs' this is some great irreverent fun from the guys at ESPN. More after the jump.
When I go to Vegas, I pretty much say, 'okay, I'm going to loose $200 bucks'. Once I know I'm going to lose, I can just enjoy the ride. I'm basically paying $200 to play video games, which you like to call slot machines and poker machines. All of this is to say, I'm not really a better, I'm more of just a 'fun haver". Floyd Mayweather Jr. is better. He's tweeted his bets and sent out pictures of this betting slips and he recently had one pay off BIG.
We decided it would be fun to ask our football 'experts' on their opinion and choices for the big games that week. Our 'experts' include those in Lubbock radio and television.
I don't even really know how I feel about this one. It's fun to haul ass in a boat, but at the same time it's DANGEROUS. Think about it, you're IN A HARD OBJECT without seatbelts. In the following video all that happened was the boat crossed the wake of another boat going too fast. Check out the people flying into stuff. If this doesn't encourage you to be a little bit safer in boats, then nothing will. More after the jump.
Don't ever mistake me for a guy who likes baseball. I don't really care that much for sports in general. I DO however love highlight reel stuff and this is a pretty good one. It's kind of a "Harlem Globetrotters" catch, if you will. More after the jump.
It's been a long hot summer, the Olympics were awesome, and it was great to see so many talented young people representing the United States in so many events. I have to say one of the best sights for me was seeing Michael Phelps SMOKE Tyler Clary! You may not remember Clary by his performance in the pool but maybe you will recall he blasted Phelps for his workout ethic right before the games began.
My team Dixie Wrecked will make their 2nd appearance in this year's radio station fantasy football league 2012.
