Bloggers To Be Named Later, February 26 2012<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bloggers To Be Named Later<\/a> was Paul Caputo’s fabulous sports-blogging empire of the mid-2010s. My role in the enterprise was to promise to write humor articles and then not do that, or at least not remotely on time. Ultimately, after a flirtation with viral Internets fame, the site basically turned into an excuse for Paul to get free baseball tickets, which is actually about the only good reason to run a blog of any sort. After the BTBNL site wound down, I realized that I hadn’t kept local copies of most of the stories I had written, so I ended up scouring through The Internet Archive<\/a> to find as many as I could in order to prevent a tragic loss to the world’s cultural canon of blog posts complaining about the Seattle Mariners. You’re welcome. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is an immense honor for a podunk blog of this type to add The NFL Super Insider<\/strong> to its roster of writers. The NFL Super Insider has a hidden identity because he, she\u2014or it\u2014<\/em>is constantly in contact with the league\u2019s most elite and powerful. That\u2019s why the NFL Super Insider is privy to the biggest scoops, the deepest secrets, and the hottest insider knowledge that prick Jay Glazer<\/strong> can only dream about.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Agent
WHO is it??? Is this the NFL Super Insider???<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

With that being said \u2013 on to this week\u2019s NFL Super Insider Report!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Maybe THIS is the NFL Super Insider! Could it be???<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hot Item<\/em><\/strong>: At least one of the Green Bay Packers<\/strong> is spending his offseason well: B.J. Raji<\/strong> is starring in a new set of TV commercials. In these commercials, he has even invented his own dance, called the Disco Double-Check<\/strong>! Personally I don\u2019t think the dance is very good, but I\u2019m just happy to see an under-appreciated offensive lineman like Raji getting work. Rumor has it that in future commercials a certain Green Bay quarterback<\/strong> (maybe Matt Flynn!) plus a Packers sideline dancer with a beard will make a guest appearance as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"BC
Is THIS the NFL Super Insider??? Probably not but you should check closely.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Breaking News<\/em><\/strong>: Chicago Bears<\/strong> fans have been looking forward to next year, as their legendary offense returns in healthy form. But I\u2019m hearing from those \u201cin the know\u201d in Chicago that quarterback Jay Cutler<\/strong> may not be 100% next year as he continues to struggle with what one team source called a \u201churt vagina<\/strong>.\u201d I\u2019m not familiar with with the injury but from what I\u2019m hearing it has been a recurring problem<\/strong> throughout Cutler\u2019s career\u2014stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Wonder
Is this the NFL Super Insider? Unlikely, but do you notice a trend? Keep reading to find out if your answer is correct.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Flash<\/em><\/strong>: Very highly placed League sources tell me exclusively<\/em> that a blockbuster trade is on the way for the Indianapolis Colts<\/strong>! According to these Mega-Insiders, the Colts are set to deal away Peyton Manning<\/strong> to a dark-horse suitor: the St. Louis Cardinals<\/strong>! It\u2019s said that new Colts General Manager Bill Pullman<\/strong> is pulling out all the stops to deal the longtime Indy quarterback for the Cardinals\u2019 first-round picks in 2012 and 2013. The last holdup to getting a deal done is the Cardinals\u2019 request for a \u201cleft-handed reliever<\/strong>\u201d which may be a code name for a cornerback, or it may be some slang reference to gay sex. Best of luck to Peyton with the Cardinals either way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Megan
Yeah, at this point it’s just gratuitous<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hot Item<\/em><\/strong>: One of the NFL\u2019s most prolific tweeters has caused a scandal yet again! Fox on NFL\u2019s beloved robotic mascot Cleatus<\/strong> (@CLEATUSonFOX) ignited a firestorm last week with this verbal barb:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Infamous Cleatus tweet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Whoa, big guy \u2013 let\u2019s leave the politics out of things. I prefer the \u201cclassic\u201d Cleatus, known for his hilarious insights<\/strong>on everyday life covering the NFL<\/strong> like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like we all haven’t thought that before!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s all for this week! Keep your ears to the ground, keep reaching for the stars, and keep your hands to yourself \u2013 just like famous bluesman Leonard Skinnerd<\/strong> used to say!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
