What is this site about?  

Hello, sports fans. First of all, thank you for clicking on the link to our site. Whether it was out of charity for a friend, a yearning for objective football rankings, or hoping for ridiculous Herm Edwards pictures, we don’t care. We’re just happy to be here. 

Anyway, we figure we’re similar to most of you out there. Just a couple of dudes in their early 20’s, not really doing a whole lot on the job or off of it, except thinking about where to get booze and tail after we leave our 9-5s. Most of our days are taken up by watching live sports, consuming sports information, or talking sports with friends and family. We’ve read the countless blogs and sports related websites out on these here Internets and thought we would give it a shot. We’re not experts nor do we have any inside information – we’re not Peter King and we’re not going to bitch about Starbucks and annoying travel (although exploring the worlds of wet-blanket girls, bad condoms, and dick jokes are in play). We’re not Bill Simmons, Deadspin, KissingSuzyKolber, Football Outsiders, or anything else. We don’t have any real goals for this site, and we can’t promise a ton of insight you won’t get other places. What we can promise you is entertaining content and our biased opinions on shit we feel strongly about. 

With that, sit back, take off your pants, click around, and comment away. After all….YOU BLOG TO WIN THE GAME.

 

Who is writing these bad jokes and subjective rants?

- Whowethoughttheywere  (aka VCD)

He’s the reason we’re all here, since he impregnated everyone’s mom. Not really, but this guy created the power ranking system which is the basis for youblogtowinthegame, so he has final say over content. Basically, fuck this dude. Other than that, stand up guy of course.

- Thatsmyquarterback

Doing push-ups and handing out insults since the mid-80’s, thatsmyquarterback is one of the creators and editors of youblogtowinthegame. His talents include spitting fiery venom at friends and strangers alike, and always managing to find the closest restaurant selling gyros while drunk. He is small in stature but large in male pattern baldness. He owns an I-pod but doesn’t really care for music, as he’d rather sit in silence on long trips and think about ways to put down his friends. His favorite activity is regular dance-floor fist pumping.

- Keymoses

Other possible names for this author included Hebrew Hammer, Jabbering Jew, Hating Heeb, and Ranting Raven. Basically, he’s Jewish and angry. Don’t we all have a friend like that? For insight into his thought process, here is the exact transcript of a question Keymoses recently asked a co-worker: “If you were to stage a fight between a man and a bear in an arena, perhaps 3-4 football fields in size, what weapons would  make the fight 50-50 for Vegas? Human gets two weeks to learn the weapon, bear is an approximately 400 lb black bear (no grizz), bear is not hungry when put in the arena, but will be shortly. What’s the weapon?”

Yeah. Seriously.

- Ohlendorfian IQ

Ohlendorfian IQ is the christened YBTWTG Pirates expert, a title he accepts with honor and whatever dignity remains for someone that likes the Pirates. Miserable, probably over-analytical, and generally misanthropic, Ohlendorfian IQ also really likes hockey, English Premier League football… and bitching…a whole lot. He doesn’t know how he got into blogging about sports with two brown guys and a mercilessly pissed off Jew he’s never met, but he knows he likes it.
