As long as they're all in that "editorial" meeting

I'll clog up slog. Dig this hilarious blending of two usually separate breeds of geek, sports fans and comics fans. All 32 NFL teams and the Batman character they most resemble. Seahawks? Manbat.

#1: The Eagles are NOT the Riddler. They need to be Zsasz, who is the most sociopathic of the Batman villains. All Zsasz does is kill and brutalize and be mean. Like a true Philadelphia Eagles fan.

#2: My Giants are Hush? lol. No.

I notice they're giving away free kids, 7 or younger, at the local pre-party for the San Antonio bowl game.

Not sure if there's a limit on that ...

Oh, and speaking of games, did you see Nate Silver admitting Ron Paul could easily win Iowa by 3-4 points with Mittens "Fumble" Romney a distant third, 13 points down?

Now them's bettin' odds!

The Eagles fans may be mean and brutal but this is about the team and the West Jersey Shit-Birds, like the Riddler, aren't as good as they think they are.

I love the line "the seahawk isn't a real bird, it is just a nickname for the osprey." Last I checked the Osprey is a real bird.

Like nearly everything on BR, that was terrible.

Chicago Bears are the Scarecrow. I'm okay with this.
They forgot to mention Hester as one of those Bears inspiring fear in opponents, though. You don't have to be a linebacker to be terrifying!

@1 Bullshit. Let's talk about that super bowl, shall we? That super bowl was evidence that the Football Gods do not tolerate cheating or preemptively declaring yourselves the greatest team in history, and all of that "19-0" copywrite bullshit. Or being offered a publishing deal about their "perfect season".

Marvin Harrison had a fistful of David Tyree's jersey in his hand, and Tyree's helmet catch IS the greatest in Super Bowl history, by no fucking way than the Hand of the Football Gods.

They got exactly what they deserved.

The Giants, on the other hand, will either rally (super bowl) or break your fucking heart (dare I say it: that goddamned Steve Smith in the game about which we do not speak) in every close game they ever play. This is a team with an offense and a defense who alternate on which Sundays they feel like showing up to play. And we've all heard the jokes about Eli Manning. True Giants fans are hardened against all of that.

That said, E-A-G-L-E-S SUCK! SUCK! SUCK!

It should also be noted that David Tyree didn't make ONE catch in their last practice before the game.
