Hungry Abandons the 'Skins

I am back! For the two of you who missed me in my almost year long hiatus I be attempting to get my blog up and running again.Years of losing couldn't do it. Off-season after off-season of false optimism couldn't do it. Ridiculous cost of actually attending a game couldn't do it (though I never did attend one). As it turns out, the true depth of Daniel Snyder'...

Hungry's Draft Reaction

Draft day is one of my favorite days of the year.  Usually I end up drunk and depressed as I watch my skins make terrible decisions.  Last year I was able to convince myself that we had a decent draft, despite the fact that we drafted a bunch of crappy offensive players with our first several picks.  In fact our only good one was drafting Chris Horton in the 6th or 7th round.This...

VH1 Should Say N.O. to T.O.

Just when we thought we weren't going to hear much from TO until he throws a?teammate?under the bus again, VH1 goes and gives him a reality show. ?At first I thought well maybe that makes sense. ?I personally don't like him but he is one of the best?receivers?in recent history so maybe it could do some good to get his insights into the game right?Of course I am right, but...

Lesnar Stampedes Couture

First of all let me say I told you so. I posted Friday that Lesnar would beat Couture by ground and pound in the second round. So let me just take a moment to pat myself on the back. Done. Now lets talk about the fight. I have to admit I thought Lesnar was going to manhandle Couture, but the old man really showed me a lot he was able to put Lesnar up against the fence several...

Lesnar Vs Couture

This weekend the main event it the much ballyhooed matchup between Randy Couture and Brock Lesnar. Last I checked Lesner is a slight favorite in Vegas and as much as I love Randy I have to agree. While I think Randy has been great I just don't see how he can match up with Lesnar. Randy is a good wrestler but he is not as good as Brock. Randy is nowhere near as strong as Brock...

We Can Learn Alot From Our Forefathers-Especially How to Drink

I thought myself and my buddies had done some stupid things drinking wise my last year or two of college. My biggest mistake was drinking a bottle of Cisco and a bottle of Nighttrain, and losing my motor skills, and running into a garage door (not in a car I mean actually running into a door) Thankfully I don't do that anymore. However thanks to an article I stumbled upon...

A Couple Delicious Pranks

Putting clear tape on a hocky players blades so he eats it when he tries to skate. Putting some kind of dead animal in a teamates locker, or in their car. Jacking someone clothes while they are in the shower and hiding them, soaking them, putting them on ice etc.. Plastic wrapping another teams underwear to a diving board. Freezing another teams underwear. Putting Icy Hot in a players...

Most Devastating Madden Defeat Ever?

I like many of you love Madden. I especially love the franchise mode and every time I buy a version of Madden I will play through as many as 10 seasons-yes I'm a nerd. I have had my share of disgusting defeats at the hands of the computer but I think half the fun is having the difficulty high enough so every game is in doubt and I don't mind losing. So it is the rare time...

Top 10 Derelicts in Sports

The following are the Hungry Actor's leaders in douchebaggery. Yes there are others so feel free to add your own. Normally Junie wouldn't make this list but since he inspired it he gets the 9th spot. 10. Junie Browning-Anyone who is watching The Ultimate Fighter this season knows what a douche this guy is. He is arguably the best lightweight on the show but he has filled...

Which Would Piss Red Sox Nation Off More?

Assuming that the Dodgers play the Sox in the World Series (I think the Rays make it but lets pretend) which would piss the Sox fans off more. Losing to the Manny led Dodgers or winning and then having to give Manny a ring since he was on the team this year? Personally I am over Boston and their winning ways (mainly because of Bill Simmon's douchebaggery) but I have to...

Man Loses Fantasy Football Then His Mind

This has been bouncing all over the blogosphere lately but I had to comment on it. A 35 year old man was arrested on Monday after threatening his roomate with a knife over his anger at his Fantasy league scoring. Allegedly he was so angry he told his roomate to move out when the roomate ignored him and continued to read his book, our fantasy champion slashed pages out of the book...

Maybe Flacco Isn't Wacko

I think it is pretty apparent that I am a Skins fan. But a little known fact about The Hungry Actor is that I love seeing the Ravens do well-just not as well as the Skins. I lived in Maryland when the Ravens moved there and was obligated to follow them and have became intrigued by the way they were putting their team together. I definitely had multiple offseasons of jealousy when...

I Told You So Round 2

This is week 2 of my I told you so posts. After last week when I called out all the Jason Campbell haters I got a resounding response that the Skins had yet to play anyone. Jason Campbell's 100 QB rating 4 tds and no turnovers meant nothing. So yet again I have to say I told you so and I am almost completely convinced that Campbell is the answer at QB for the Skins. He had...

Jason Taylor Almost Lost His Leg

We learned this week that Jason Taylor will miss his first game in almost a decade after having to have a pooling of blood in his calf. I was pretty irritated considering to me that sounded like a bruise. So imagine my surprise when I was watching First Take this morning and they had their Dr on to discuss the recent injuries and when they got to Taylor's calf injury he informed...

Where Would Silva's Early Retirement Rank?

Yahoo reported today that Anderson Silva has said that he plans to retire within the year. This would be a huge blow to the UFC and a major shock to the MMA world. So it got me to thinking about the most suprising athlete early retirements and where Silva would rank. And yes I am aware that there are tons more than have made my list so feel free to share yours. 5. Ricky Williams...

I Told You So!

After the Skins lost to the Giants with a terrible performance in week one I heard calls for Todd Collins. I was one of the few people I know to say that Campbell would be ok. That it was just one bad game and that he was going to come on strong. One person in particular said to talk to him again once the Skins were 0-3 and Campbell was on his way out. I responded that I would...

Was I Wrong About Desean Jackson?

I have been pretty vocal on other blogs about how I thought Eagles fans were way off base in their love for Jackson. I saw statements saying he was going to be the best reviever in the league within the year, the top rookie from this years class, a future hall of famer and on and on and on. I got ripped by Eagles faithful for saying while I thought Jackson was going to be a good...

Perhaps Tatum Bell Should Try a Conflict Resolution Class Instead

Recently Tatum Bell was released by the Lions in favor of former Bengal Rudi Johnson (who almost singlehandedly destroyed my fantasy team last year). I can understand why Tatum might be upset at Rudi but instead of doing what most of us would have done-yell at Rudi, punch Rudi, let the air out of Rudi's tires or order 20 pizzas to his house-Tatum decided to steal Rudi's...

Why Shawne Merriman Shouldn't Play

Is that picture right there. It is Reggie Williams's-formerly of Dartmouth and the Bengals-right knee. ESPN's Jemele Hill reported on this and it is easily one of the best cases I have ever heard to take a season off. We have all heard that despite two torn ligaments Merriman has decided to play through the pain this season. Williams made the same decision despite...

The Secret Behind Justin Fargas' Success

Is most definitely his father who is better known as Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch as well as roles in many other blaxploitation films of the day. It is a same that Justin can never be half as bad ass as Huggy Bear-though I am willing to bet as an NFL player he gets as many girls.

Pitcher Banned for 40 mph Fastball!

Outside of the classic movie Rookie of the Year-"did he just say funky butt-lovin'?"- no one has ever struck out anyone with a fastball that speed. However in this case the pitcher in question is Jericho Scott a 9 year old from New Haven Conn. and his baseball league has decided-halfway through the season-that he throws too hard and is no longer allowed to pitch. His...

What is Going On With the Browns?

I like many of us was completely taken in with the Browns' improbable rise last season. Especially since I was able to trade Kevin Jones for DA in my fantasy league. Going hand and hand with DA's rise was the huge improvement of Kellen Winslow and Braylon Edwards and the rejuvenation of Jamal Lewis. But have you seen them this preseason? I know it is just preseason but the...
