It’s a damn Shane – Vol 4

It’s a damn Shane that Santonio Holmes believes that the Lombardi Trophy is named after some dude named Dicky Lombardi. Who the hell is Dicky Lombardi? I guess making Super Bowl XLIII’s game-winning touchdown catch affords you the opportunity to be a little lax on your NFL history and the Super Bowl trophy’s namesake. Not to mention being able to drive away with a sweet Slade. Okay, so the nine receptions for 131 yards and a TD with the TD and 73 of those yards coming in the final game winning drive – that got him the Slade. But damnit, it’s Vince, not Dicky.

Maybe it’s a damn Shane that Larry Fitzgerald’s record setting post season will be overshadowed by the inability of the Cardinals’ defense to stop the Steelers on their final drive in the 4^th quarter of Super Bowl XLIII, allowing Arizona not to win their first Super Bowl in franchise history.  What more can one guy do in under five minutes to help his team win?

It’s also a damn Shane that James Harrison wasn’t ejected. Apparently taking an interception to the house for 100 yards and a new Super Bowl record allows you some dirty play for the low, low price of half the distance to the goal line. I believe it was Dicky’s cousin, Vince, who once said:

  “Some of us will do our jobs well and some will not, but we will all be judged by only one thing – the result.”

Let’s see…NFL Defensive Player of the Year, longest interception return in Super Bowl history and being able to hoist the Super Bowl trophy supposedly named after Dicky Lombardi….not a bad year James, but you should still be ashaned of that terrible display of sportsmanship.

It has to be a damn Shane that there are not enough spacious and roomy shoes nowadays suitable for large family dwelling. I mean holy crap, eight at one time. Dick Van Patten would definitely be impressed. “Eight is Enough“…yeah whatever, what about “Eight at One Time”? Take that, Bradford family!  Now that I think about it, it’s really a damn Shane that there are not more booming brood reality shows on television. I know there has to be a Shane load of people out there who just can’t get enough of “John & Kate Plus Eight” or “17 Kids and Counting“.

And lastly it’s really a damn Shane that the Tough Brets disbandoned, or is it disbanded? Anyway, stay cool because Shane will, and know that it does hurt Shane’s feelings that more people are not reading this blog.  So stop dissin’ SS&T and get your Shane on…
