Welcome to a new era in the bullshit to which Dubsism exposes it’s six regular readers. We’ve now entered the video world, and here’s our first video podcast, and as terrible as it may be, it’s a “Neil Armstrong” giant step for this crappy, uncensored, independent sports blog. The subject of this initial cast is… Read More The Dubscast, Volume 1

If you recall back around the Super Bowl, there was a spirited debate about quarterbacks. On one hand, if Brady had won, would he be the greatest of all time? On the other, since Eli Manning won his second Super Bowl, where does he rank amongst the all-time greats? Let’s cut through the crap here…the… Read More You Can Stop The Debate: Here’s the Quintessential Dubsism List of the 30 Greatest Quarterbacks
Throughout life, we deal with units of measure. To me, the most interesting are scales; where a level of intensity is assigned to an event or quality based on a quantifiable measure. The world of weather brings us the Saffir-Simpson scalefor hurricane intensity or the Fujita scale for tornadoes. Seismologists categorizes earthquakes according to the Richter scale. However, as a… Read More The Dubsism Quarterback Douchebag Scale
1) The Brady-Bieber Hair Postulate Having hair that covers your face is only acceptable if you are an ass-kicking sheep-dog. It is not acceptable anywhere else, not even on teen heart-throbs and especially not on quarterbacks. 2) Their general sense of entitlement As evidenced by this t-shirt. There are far too many Patriots fans who… Read More Why You Shouldn’t Cheer For…The New England Patriots
Let’s start with my original playoff predictions: New England Patriots Why They Can Win: Because Tom Brady is still Tom Brady; one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history on the NFL, and he isn’t far enough past his prime to be discounted.

Clark Kent isn’t the only journalist who can become a superhero. Clark Judge at CBS Sports.com has the ability to drop his snap-brim hat, horn-rim glasses, and gray flannel suit faster than this speeding blog to become his cape-wearing alter-ego Captain Obvious. I’m sure Judge isn’t the only guy to write a column this week… Read More When Sports Writers Get Too Clever: Obviously, It Doesn’t Take A Superhero To Beat Tom Brady
With yet another weekend of football in the books, there are several more important lessons we should have learned both in the college ranks and in the NFL. 1) You “instant replay solves everything” people can all bite me…again.

With the NFL Draft looming, I found a list courtesy of the NFL Network featuring the schools consider to be the Top Ten Football Factories. We here at Dubsism took that list and crossed it against each schools three arguably most interesting players.

You shouldn’t cheer for the Chicago Bears anyway; we’ve documented that quite well over the past few weeks. However, Bears quarterback Jay Cutler exudes such a rare combination of smarminess and suckitude that no self-respecting fan should support him or the Bears, who also believe they are better than they are. Colin Cowherd made mention… Read More Why You Shouldn’t Cheer For…Jay Cutler
I swear to God, I’m am going to absolutely lose my shit the next time I hear somebody tell me Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback ever. Spare me, the only thing Tom Brady might be the most ever is overrated. Take a minute to let that sink in. I fully understand that I’m calling… Read More Why You Shouldn’t Cheer For…Tom Brady
1) The “Sack Dance” is completely out of control. Seriously, what the hell do you call this? The “guy getting hit with a cattle prod?” “The funky gallbladder?” 2) Tom Brady has Douche-Hair. Remember when Tom Brady burst onto the scene as a 6th-rounder injury replacement for Drew Bledsoe? You liked him then; he was… Read More Four Things We’ve Learned About the NFL Heading Into Week Five
1) San Diego Chargers Why They Can Win: They are playing the best football at the right time. This also may be the most complete and balanced team in the playoffs.
