Who is Frank Ocean?

1.) I mean honestly?  The only time I ever heard of him was when one of my soccer players was listening to him on their Ipod before one of our games. I didn’t really think much of him until I check out all of these “best of” lists and guess who is number one on practically all of them? Frank Ocean! So I go to check out his songs, I listen to them and I think….meh. I mean, any album that has lyrics like: “Set the cheetahs on the loose, there’s a thief out on the move, underneath out…

Hell, Let’s Make Some Picks!

I’ll admit, I’ve been off my game lately. I hadn’t made any NFL predictions since Week 9. Things have been hectic, so forgive me for not guiding your betting patterns for a few weeks. But, just as people feel towards McDonald’s hamburgers, you’ll love me, then hate me, then forgive me right back into your life at an inopportune time. Let’s get to the FAT! Cincinnati -4.5 @ Philadelphia – The Eagles are the only team I know that can mess up losing. The idea, at this point, is to lose out for a better draft pick. The coaching…

Andrew Bynum Expects To Play This Season

This just in…. Andrew Bynum has stated that he intends to play this season. Right after, he mentioned that his left knee is still incredibly sore and he’s not sure on the timetable for his return. I guess that’s some sort of good news? This is the knee he injured during his bowling fiasco. So technically, if the man lived in a bubble during his rehabilitation, he would be healthy enough to play right now. That makes me rethink my position on the Sixers trade and this whole situation. Bynum sticks to his story that he will play this…

World Title to be Decided at Pipeline

Well it comes down to this – only two surfers, Kelly Slater and Joel Parkinson, remain in the World Title hunt to be decided today at Pipeline. Both Mick Fanning and John John Florence, the other title contenders, were eliminated yesterday in round three. Florence lost to Vans Triple Crown winner and Hawaii surfing season revelation Sebastian Zietz. This kid has been tearing it up in Hawaii, and will be on the world tour next year having qualified at the Reef Hawaiian Pro. Other blogs also like to point out that this guy has three thumbs – one up for…

Gabriel Medina Apology

As Micheal Scott said, “It takes a big man to admit when he’s wrong, and that big man is me.” In a previous post on the Headrush I criticized Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina for his actions after his less than gracious “defeat” in Portugal this year. I also criticized his surfing a bit…then, I saw this: Whoa! My apologies, The Wolfman

Current State of Sport

The stories that have baffled me in the past weeks. NBA The Spurs were recently fined $250,000 dollars for sitting out their stars during a televised game. Fined. For resting their players. This to me is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever heard. When did the overlord NBA get to decide what individual teams do? This is just added evidence for conspiracy theorists that the NBA is indeed fixed. I mean if you can fine a team for dictating their own team affairs publicly, who is to say what the NBA tells its officials behind closed doors. MLB Sports…

Overrated: Inspirational Speeches

1.) Last night the Saints played the Falcons and this morning, they showed a hilarious video of Drew Brees before the game just screaming all sorts of nonsense to his team.  It was something along the lines of: “THIS IS OUR DIVISION! WE KNOW IT AND THEY KNOW IT! NOW LETS SHOW THEM WHO OWNS THIS DIVISION! GRAAHAGAGAHAHEHEHE!” Apparently, the Falcons didn’t know it. After the speech, Brees threw 5 interceptions, played like a damned fool and lost the game for his team. It all goes to show you that A.) Drew Brees is an idiot and B.) Inspirational…
