FBC NFL Preview: NFC East

Welcome back to the Fancy Boys NFL Season Previews. I hope you all enjoyed your end of summer. Did you get it out of your system? Good! Because two things are true of the rest of the year: It’s time for me to put away all of my white clothing, and it’s TIME FOR THE NFL TO START!

We are three days away from football season, and Jack and I are going to pump so much football down your gullet, you are gonna pray for the sweet, sweet release of death. Speaking of sweet, sweet death. Lets talk about the NFC East!

FBC NFL Preview: AFC West

Welcome back everyone to the Fancy Boys Football Preview. I’m happy to report that upward of three million people have read these articles so far. You are officially in good company. Today we are talking about the AFC West, possibly the most entertaining division in the NFL, and assuredly one of the most well coached, with a very notable, red haired, quarterback obsessed exception.

Goodnight, Sweet Taco Bell Prince

Goodnight, Sweet Taco Bell Prince

They say Icarus perished when he flew too close to the sun, and his wings melted. Or caught fire. Or he hit a goose. I’m not great with fables. Sorry Aesop. In many ways, Taco Bell is fast foot Icarus. Where many fast food companies dared not go, or at best toed the line (the Double Down never had crispy enough chicken, KFC!), Taco Bell spit in the face of common sense, and kicked food dignity in the balls.

FBC NFL Preview: AFC South

FBC NFL Preview: AFC South

Welcome back to the Fancy Boys NFL Preview. This week, we are looking at the AFC South, which in spite of being an offensive league, has one viable quarterback in the entire division. More time has been wasted on developing quarterbacks in this division than has been wasted by this administration trying to get the president to learn where Israel is on a map.

When Andrew Luck retired, it was basically an anointment of the Texans as kind of the division until Jacoby Brissett proves himself, or the Colts just up and tank this season in the hopes of drafting a QB next year. It’s all just…thrilling. Anyway, let’s dive in to the AFC South.

FBC NFL Preview: AFC East

FBC NFL Preview: AFC East

Welcome to the first division preview and it makes sense to knock out the easiest, most obvious division in football. The Patriots rule this division. There are people who are sophmores in college who know nothing but the dominance of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. We were barely over Y2K when they came in and announced their presence in the NFL. So, lets get this over with, here is the AFC East…

Fancy Boys NFL Preview

Welcome back, babayyyyyyyy! It’s football season again, which means it time to get “open bar wedding” drunk, eat chili, and be in public in a jersey at the only acceptable time. For some reason, this off season has felt like it has lasted around 14 months, mostly because the NBA had two seasons since the end of the Super Bowl. While the NFL offseason feels like a forced marriage of non-news masquerading as news, the NBA legitimately brought the sports world to a screeching halt.

Andrew Luck Chose Life

Within the past half hour, Twitter exploded with the news that Andrew Luck is going to announce his retirement from the NFL in a press conference tomorrow. The 7 year veteran and former number one pick in the draft, was generally regarded as one of the five best quarterbacks in the NFL when healthy.

Reports say that Luck was mentally worn down from being in a seemingly near constant state of recovering from injury. His

Why We Are Fancy Boys

There really isn’t a specific time when you say it’s time to go, except when that time gets thrown at you. This entire website exists because of July 22nd. I remember that I was writing a piece about getting older and enjoying the idea of spending nights at home watching Netflix with my wife more than I was enjoying going out. The piece never got completed, but this website was born because of it. Continue reading “Why We Are Fancy Boys”
