I've complained about the lack of creativity in the NFL before, but in all my years of procrastinating, I've never seen anything like this; the Washington Football Team may be more than just a one-year placeholder.
Via:
The temporary rebrand of the 'Washington Football Team' could last longer than just this season, according to team president Jason Wright. "Next year is fast," Wright said on the possibility of having a new team moniker by the beginning of the 2021 NFL campaign. "There's a pretty good chance we will be the Washington Football Team next season." (from the interview linked in the next paragraph) “I think next year is fast because of how the brand has to come together through uniforms, through approval processes through the league," Wright said. "Next year is fast. There is a pretty good chance we will still be the Washington Football Team next season. We could get there quicker, it’s actually pretty hard to get there that quickly because of all the steps that need to happen.” Wright's comments come in an exclusive interview with ABC7's Scott Abraham. On July 3, Washington announced the retirement of its old name and logo after owner Dan Snyder faced significant pressure from corporate sponsors to change the name. A few weeks later, the club announced it would temporarily play as the 'Washington Football Team' while the team goes through the process of finding a new moniker for the "next 100 years."
There's giving yourself an out and then there's whatever the Washington Football Team is doing here.
WFT Team President and Pardon My Take reoccurring guest, Jason Wright has found a way to put "I'm just gonna wait to start my diet off until after New Years because of the holidays" to new heights. Today is October 20th, 2020, so of course it's crazy to think about losing weight in 2020, but WFT is already hinting at the fact that Washington Football Team may be here to stay because "next year is fast". While there's no doubt 2021 is right around the corner, the NFL league year does not operate January 1st to December 31st; each new league year begins in March! That's why Chiefs vs. Titans was the 2019, not 2020 AFC Championship Game. In case you forgot about how far apart January 1st and the middle of March are, why don't you try to picture life back when your face could be exposed and you didn't have to wash your hands after going to the bathroom. There were over 70 days of that in 2020. Now, I'm not entirely up-to-date with the words to percentages exchange rate, but I think we can all agree "pretty good" is greater than 50% when it comes to chances. How can you seriously not at least have it narrowed down to a few dozen names? How are the chances of Washington Football Team being around next year "pretty good"? It's not exactly like the retirement of Redskins wasn't decades in the making...As much as I might disrespect him, it's not like come midnight January 1st, 2021 any new team name proposals are due on Roger Goodell's desk otherwise you have to wait another year. With five months until the 2021 league year begins the Washington Football Team (I got to Red before I was like "Dozo!") is basically saying we don't have enough time to make a decision that we've had since July. Who can blame them though? This is a big deal you, don't want to pick a name that's going to piss people off.
Despite the team's record, there's no denying the accuracy of "Washington Football Team", it's just boring AF. It reminds of how lame MLS is with "fill in a city that probably doesn't have all four major sports" F.C. or S.C.
I really just wanted to write this blog to get my name idea out there, sure Red Wolves has been the popular choice amongst Football Team fans.
But I think the obvious choice is Pigskins. The artist former known as the Washington Redskins should become the Washington Pigskins.
Think about it for two seconds...Pigskins pays homage to the Football Team's former name, while also respecting its current one. (You know what footballs used to be made of right?) Speaking of paying homage; how about showing some love to the most famous (retired) fans in football?
You can still be called the Skins while only being only offensive to vegans and nobody on earth feels guilty about making fun of them. There wasn't a Trail of Tomatoes (no you can't steal that, Olive Garden). Plus you can keep the fight song which is a huge fan favorite. All you have to do is change one half of one word. If the issue is with re-branding there is no easier rebrand than swapping Red with Pig. All you need to do is hit ctrl/command (depending on your computer brand)-F to swap everything out. Just make sure there's no Dwigt situations.

As I'm sure you're aware, the #TwoManyLegs teaser finally met its demise last week after a 3-0 start to the 2020 NFL campaign; the teaser game is an All or Nothing affair like O-Town and last week something, somewhere had to give....up, like the Cincinnati Bengals in Baltimore. Just a F minus-minus effort by AJ Green here.
I didn't love the board last week (still went 5-3, but that's not gonna get it done) and thought about putting the #TwoManyLegs teaser on ice for a few weeks to keep the perfection in tact. I could've SAT'd it and just not answered the bell for a few weeks so I could keep beating that Chris Teager meme into the ground, but when you're trying to get noticed by Barstool Sports to escape the bleak reality that being a long-term sub in the Creative Capital for the rest of your life you're not gonna sit on the fucking sidelines pouting like LT.
You wake up at around 10:00 am on game-day, grab you laptop, phone and start doing research.
The #TwoManyLegs teaser is here to stay; let's not forget how well it's done to this point. Week 2 and 3 Week 4 Week 5 (booo Bengals)
Without further window dressing, here's the DOL Too Many Legs Teaser of the Week (Week 6)
Panthers +4 (from -2)
Patriots -1 (from -7)
Titans +2.5 (from -3.5) and OVER 46 (from 52)
Bengals/Colts OVER 40 (from 46)
Ravens/Eagles OVER 40.5 (from 46.5)
Browns/Steelers OVER 44 (from 50)
Lions/Jaguars OVER 47 (from 53)
Good luck if you ride, sorry for giving up 15 minutes to get it in and as ALWAYS please gamble responsibly.
I'm always blown away by recycled/repurposed pieces. As a quasi-creative myself, I respect the hell out of outside the box thinking. How some living, breathing human with a family and everything was like "I'm going to make a bench out of plastic bags and then put one in every zoo in America!" blows my mind. The fact that everything we've ever seen in life from the Golden Gate Bridge to glory holes had to be designed and built by people (at least until AI started taking over) is so simple, yet beautiful to me.
How do you even get to that point? How do you decide you're going to turn jeans into construction paper? What Alex Jones brain pills do I need to buy that activate the part of my brain? Take this guitar I saw on the great Tom Morello's instagram in between depression memes and 22 year old ass for example.
Do you come across some World War II artifacts and think "I know just what to turn those into" or are you like "find me some ammo boxes! I've got a guitar to make"?
This thing is so fucking cool. It's like the reverse of war rationing. Instead of melting toys to make tanks, someone turned the boxes that held war-time ammo into the instrument responsible for more box than packing tape. This guitar combines two of my top 6ish favorite things; music and primary sources from World War II. The fact that Tom Morello of all people is playing this Nazi-killer guitar is perfect. I gotta hear the "Sleep Now in the Fire" solo on this baby. The late Woody Gruthrie would be proud to know this machine literally helped kill fascists.

If you thought exploiting the environment, cheating on your taxes or having rich parents were the only ways to make robber-baron like profits in life then have I got news for you; they're not! All you need is the ability to read and access to instagram to get so inspired and motivated that you'll become a financial guru before you can say multi-level-network-marketing! If a poorly photoshopped picture of Leonardo DiCaprio over the most vague quote you've ever read doesn't get your blood flowing and ready to earn, then this is not the blog for you because these financial memes are so inspiring you're going be shitting bricks of cold hard cash. It's no wonder why these all have tens of thousands of likes. Your net worth will triple by the time you follow all these accounts. If you wish Wolf of Wall Street was another 45 minutes longer then this is the post for you!

Leonardo (DiCaprio) has never once said he doesn't have the time in his LIFE and he sure as heck never said someone got lucky. You just don't get it do you? Mindset is EVERYTHING when it comes to making money. Even if it's just an unprovoked ricochet shot. You'll never have financial freedom until you understand basic division that doesn't account for taxes and the benefits you probz don't get from your employer. A wise man once said if you don't watch Wolf of Wall Street twice a week you're never going to make it. Thank God, Tommy Shelby is here to give you all the answers!

Last night the undefeated Tennessee Titans hosted the then undefeated Buffalo Bills in only the 2nd NFL contest held on a Tuesday night since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. Before yesterday, it had been nearly a decade since our last Tuesday night NFL experience when the Minnesota Vikings, led by rookie QB/WR/ATH Joe Webb upset the eventual (maybe they already clinched at this point?) NFC East Champion Philadelphia Eagles 24-14 on TUESDAY December 28th, 2010.
This is why blog research is so important!!! I could've sworn that game was postponed because of the Metrodome's collapse.
When it reality it was just because of some bitch ass blizzard. Philly is so tough that they'll throw up on you in a crowd to assert dominance, but they can't handle a little foot and a half of snow? They didn't postpone the Ice Bowl, Roger! We know Rozelle would've played.
Here's a little history behind Tuesday Night Football h/t Sporting News.
To find the last time an NFL game was played on Tuesday, one has to go back a decade when the Minnesota Vikings played the Eagles Philadelphia on December 28, 2010. Originally scheduled for Sunday, the NFL opted to postpone the game by two days—bizarrely, according to Pro Football Reference data, the game started at the unusual time of 8:06 p.m. ET—because a winter storm was zeroing in on Philadelphia.
The New York Times reported at the time that "as much as 18 inches [of snow] had been expected at the stadium, but there was only 12." The storm may not have been as bad as initially feared, but it did enough to derail the Eagles who, despite being 14.5-point favorites, lost 24-14 to Minnesota as Vikings rookie quarterback Joe Webb made his first career start. Prior to that, the NFL had only ever played on a Tuesday night at the beginning of the 1946 season. As was the case 74 years later, weather conditions again were the reason behind the unusual scheduling as heavy rain forced the league to postpone the season opener between the Boston Yanks and New York Giants to October 1, 1946. Unlike the Eagles, the Yanks were not fazed by the postponement and ran out 17-0 winner in front of the home fans at Braves Field.
As for the game itself; the Titans destroyed the Bills 42-16. Yay! Scoragami!
I only watched the first half because my house is rewatching the Sopranos and Jennifer Melfi > games I don't have action on. (Yes, I know the #TooManyLegs teaser lost on Sunday)
If you missed the game, there's really only one play from Tuesday night that you need to know about and it's Derrick Henry's absolute sonning/big dicking/emasculation of Bills CB Josh Norman.
Josh Norman certainly isn't the same caliber player he was in Carolina where earned 1st Team All-Pro honors during the 2015 Panthers 15-1, NFC Championship campaign, but this dude is still a professional athlete. Tractorcito ran him over like Mrs Doubtfires' mask.
My grandma used to tell me "it's time to get vertical" when I would sleep until 2:30 pm after staying up until 5:00 am watching Pants off Dance off on FUSE, so I know a thing or too about spending too much time horizontally, but never have I seen a defender fully off the ground like this.
That man is fully horizontal. As my grandma would say, it's time to get vertical Josh! What's crazy about Derrick Henry and his dominance is that you don't have look too far back to the last time he absolutely demolished a former All-Pro defensive back who wears #29; it's becoming a regular prime time occurrence for the 2015 Heisman winner. In what ended up being his final game as a Baltimore Raven, Earl Thomas got more embarrassed than a good samaritan who's curious about a hit and run by Derrick Henry in the 2019 Divisional Playoffs.
At least Earl Thomas didn't say anything about how the Ravens would handle Henry before this live metaphorical castration. It's a good thing Eric Berry is out of the league too or else Derrick Henry would literally try to fold him in half and stick him in his back pocket like a love note from your secret goth girlfriend that you don't want your hockey teammates in the next row to see. #highschool. I'd love to see what Adrian Beltre would do if Derrick Henry tried to touch his head.
P.S. The 2010 Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East in week 15 when the Giants lost to the Packers, so they were already NFC East champs when they took the field that Tuesday night.
Double P.S.
I am legally obligated to post Derrick Henry's frankly irresponsible high school numbers. 462 carries!!!
October is usually for apple picking, PSLs and wearing leather boots that go up to your labia, but as we know, 2020 has been unlike any year of our lives. Normally, we don't pay too much attention to sports at #Dozzfeed. The only competition our staff cares about involve either make up, swivel chairs, or roses. That's why this year we were more invested in Game 6 of the NBA Finals than Lori Loughlin was in USC women's crew. If the Miami Heats had beaten the Los Angeles Lakers the Bachelorette would've been delayed an entire week! Needless to say that would be the biggest tragedy of 2020. Thankfully, the star of Trainwreck, LeBron James was able to keep the Bachelorette premiere on schedule. YASSSS King! I know you'll be busy watching that tonight, but in honor of the Los Angeles Lakers tying their biggest rival, the Boston Celtics (Wait, that can't be right? Why would they be rivals if they're so far away?) with 17 basketball championships here's 17 players who played for the Lakers and Celtics. Oh wait, my boss just mansplained to me that the Celtics and Lakers are like the Jennifer Anniston and Angelina Jolie of the NBA. Apparently the Celtics won 17 championships in 21 attempts, while it took the Lakers 32 tries! 1. Von Wafer (Lakers 2005-06; Celtics 2010-11) 2. Troy Murphy (Celtics 2011; Lakers 2011-2012) 3. Brandon Bass (Celtics 2011- 2015; Lakers 2015-16) 4. Ernie DiGregorio (Lakers 1977-78; Celtics 1978) 5. Avery Bradley (Celtics 2010-2017; Lakers 2019-Present) 6. Bryan Shaw (Celtics 1988-89, 1990-92; Lakers 1999-2003) 7. Shaquille O'Neal (Lakers 1996-2004; Celtics 2010-11) 8. Kermit Washington (Lakers 1973-77; Celtics 1977-78) 9. Bob McAdoo (Celtics 1979; Lakers 1981-85) 10. Rick Fox (Celtics 1991-97; Lakers 1997-2004) 11. Rajon Rondo (Celtics 2006-2014; Lakers 2018-Present) 12. MarShon Brooks (Celtics 2013-14; Lakers 14) 13. Isaiah Thomas (Celtics 2015-2017; Lakers 2018) 14. Gary Payton (Lakers 2003-04; Celtics 2004-05) 15. Vander Blue (Celtics 2014; Lakers 2015, 2017-18) 16. Don Nelson (Lakers 1963-64; Celtics 1965-1976) 17. Hank Finkel (Lakers 1966-67; Celtics 1969-1975)
It's hard to believe that it's already been seven years, or exactly 1/4 of my life since one of the most memorable nights in Boston sports' history.
In case you've forgotten, in about a four hour span on October 13th, 2013, Boston sports fans witnessed two of the most improbable comebacks in the history of its two most beloved franchises (despite my current feelings towards Red Sox ownership). First came the play that inspired one of the most bizarre calls in football history when the 4-1 New England Patriots defeated the 5-0 New Orleans Saints on essentially a walk-off touchdown pass to of all people, Kenbrell Thompkins. How the Patriots were even in a position to win the game is pretty remarkable. Let's go back to 1/4 of a Dozo ago. After starting the 2013 season 4-0, the Patriots lost in Cincinnati 13-6 during goT damn monsoon. That loss was historically significant because it marked the first time since week 17 of the 2009 season that Tom Brady didn't throw a touchdown pass in a regular season game. Since on-the-go NFL math can be hard, that was 52 consecutive games for TB12 with a touchdown pass. Had he thrown just one measly TD against the Bengals it would've been 53 straight games; which of course means Brady's chance to tie the all-time record of 54 straight (regular) season games with a touchdown pass would've come against the record-holder himself, Drew Brees. You gotta think it's not a coincidence the schedule worked out that way. As for the actual game...after holding a 10 point in the lead (17-7) in the first half, the Patriots trailed the Saints 24-23 following a 34 yard Brees touchdown pass to Kenny Stills with 3:29 remaining in this week 6 contest. The Patriots quickly went four and out, giving New Orleans the ball with 2:46 left to play. Two first downs and it's game over. The Patriots D was able to force a three and out of their own, but because of the field-position they surrendered up by turning the ball over on downs, the Saints were able to extend their lead to four with a Garrett Hartley 39 yard field goal. Now down four (27-23), the Patriots still had nearly 2:30 minutes left WITH a timeout to retake the lead. Plenty of time for, at the time, a man widely considered a Top 3 QB of all-time. TIME! That man, known in these parts as Tom Brady went out and played like Tony Romo by throwing an interception on the first play of this drive. To use a word that would mentioned ad nauseam the following season, that interception felt super deflating. With only one timeout and the two minute warning left to stop the clock, it didn't look good for the Pats. After forcing another three and out, the Patriots got the ball back with 1:13 left, zero time outs and 70 yards keeping them from the Saints' end zone; a third and final attempt to win the game. I know 7 years (or 1/4 Dozo) can be a long time, so you may have forgotten that this season was sort of a new era of Patriots pass catchers. By that I mean all the talent from the 2010-12 run was gone; Wes Welker was in Denver, Brandon Lloyd retired, Danny Woodhead was in San Diego (R.I.P.), Aaron Hernandez was in jail (I'll let you decide on any potential R.I.P.'s), and Rob Gronkowski was hurt. Brady was throwing to Julian Edelman, Austin Collie, Aaron Dobson and Kenbrell Thompkins. Sick! They had Danny Amendola too, but he was already hurt. At this point, Austin Collie was his most accomplished WR on the Patriots' roster. Of the six receptions Collie ever made as a Patriot, two of them were on this eventual game-winning drive. That's how you get remembered. Speaking of being remembered...here's the entire final drive of that ever memorable comeback. Sure, it's not a Super Bowl, but it was a tasty appetizer for what was the come later on that night.
Later that night the Boston Red Sox hosted the Detroit Tigers for Game 2 of the 2013 ALCS. The Tigers were the defending American League champions; with a 1-2 punch of Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer (2013 AL Cy Young winner) the Tigers were in a great position to get back to the Fall Classic.
Despite my current distain for the tenant's of Fenway Park, at this point in my life I was 21 and in my first senior year of college. I lived for the Boston Red Sox. 2013 was simply a magical year. After the Boston Marathon Bombing, the Red Sox and their #BostonStrong rally cry helped mend the city. In Game 1 the Red Sox lost 1-0 despite a masterful effort by Jon Lester. Lester was bested by former Red Sox farmhand, Aníbal Sánchez who pitched six innings of no hit ball. The Sox were without a hit until a Daniel Nava single with one out in the bottom of the 9th inning. Luckily, in Game 2 the Red Sox only went hitless until the 5th inning. Unfortunately, they were down 5-0 at this point. In the bottom of the 5th, a Dustin Pedroia RBI double helped the Band of Bearded Brothers shave a run of the lead. After 7 strong innings of work, Max Scherzer was pulled with the Tigers leading 5-1. Thanks to a Dave Dombrowski bullpen and the most clutch hitter in Red Sox history, the Tigers would not hold that lead.
Future Red Sox Cy Young Winner, Rick Porcello would ultimately give up a walk-off single to Jonny Gomes to seal off an unforgettable night of Boston comebacks. The win kept the Red Sox very much alive in the series. Had they gone down 2-0 going to Detroit it likely would've been series over. While the Patriots would eventually lose the AFC Championship game to the Broncos, the Red Sox were able to follow up this clutch comeback with a championship. Those loser ass Patriots would have to wait one more year before winning three Super Bowls in five seasons.
Enjoy the memories because it's going to be a longggggggg time before the Red Sox are competing for a 5th World Series of the 21st century. P.S. Big Papi's grand slam inspired one of the best t-shirts in Barstool history, and the first Barstool shirt I ever owned. Talk about 1/4 Dozo ago; look at that hair!!

It's Week 5 of the 2020 NFL Season and the DOL Too Many Legs Teaser has still literally never lost. Week 4 Week 3 Like Queen and David Bowie in 1981, I'm Under Pressure. The DOL Too Many Legs Teaser of the Week has hit three straight weeks and if I want to continue to beat this meme into the ground, then I have to make it four (straight weeks). If you're familiar with beer pong jargon, I am on fire; The DOL Too Many Legs Teaser of the Week is 3-0. I have balls back and people are counting on me to hit that island cup so they can pay their mortgage and straighten their daughter's teeth. Does it matter that I don't love the board today? Not even a little bit because if you give me six points of wiggle room I am going to produce at an unfathomable clip. Let's not forget for the Too Many Legs Teaser to be 3-0 it has to go 8-0 every week, simple math 3x8=24 that means I am 24-0 teasing spreads and totals. This streak will end someday so please wager responsibly. Let's take a look at Week 5's Too Many Legs Teaser.
Sorry these come out so close to kickoff, I'm just not a big believer in putting in bets early. ESPECIALLY with Covid. Before I was just paranoid that someone important would get in a car accident or slip on a banana peel, now games are straight up getting rescheduled; it's a mess. You'd hate to place a bet and then see the starting QB and CB who is the reigning DPOY are out, ya know? It makes me almost glad that I'm not playing fantasy this season. Good luck and Go Seahawks, Browns, Cowboys, 49ers, Steelers, Rams, Bengals and over 43 points in Baltimore! #HireDozo
In the five calendar years that dozonlife.com has existed, I've written well over 25 blogs covering mainstream topics like NFL hiring protocols, Henry Clay Frick, and Mac DeMarco; to the obscure like dental exams, work and food. Writing about my life, likes and interests clearly hasn't grown my brand or gotten me to where I want to be professionally. So, maybe it's time to finally listen everybody who's told me to cast a wider net to drive up engagements, page views and likes. Sure, I could've just talked about how awesome dogs are, but instead, I'm going to do what Santa has been doing since 280 BCE and just make a list. If there's one thing the internet loves that isn't dogs, it's lists; if there's a second thing the internet loves, it's the 90's. What better way to connect with the interweb than doing something that nobody else could ever do by making a list of 39 photos that will surely bring you right back to the 90's!?! These 39 photos will have you saying "did I do that?" and asking your hairdresser for the Rachel. 90's kids rejoice! Welcome to DozzFeed. 1. Transparent Nintendo 64 2. Dunkaroos 3.

Of the few bits and pieces of my childhood that my brain has chosen to retain, early exposure to the music of my parent's youth remains v near and dear to my heart.
I don't know exactly how old I was, but in either late elementary or early middle school my mom showed me and my sister this humongous box of records she still had from long before either of us were alive. Many of her classic album covers caught my eye, but none like Van Halen's 1984.
I mean, it's an angel-baby with greaser hair ripping heaters. Of course that's going to catch a (let's call it) 10 year old boy's attention.
I don't remember the timeline perfectly, but my mom played us classics like "Jump", "Panama" and "Hot For Teacher" before teaching us everything there is to know about her favorite band, Van Halen. First off, my mom loved David Lee Roth so we were a Van Halen family, NOT Van Hagar. Don't you go playing that "I Can't Drive 55" bullshit in our old house! We were told about how EVH started playing classical piano and couldn't even read sheet music. She told us about how Eddie and his brother Alex traded instruments and that Van Halen was so big Eddie played a guitar solo on Michael Jackson's (ever heard of him?) "Beat It".
Now maybe momma told us this too, but if she did, it slipped my brain...the story behind how Eddie Van Halen ended up on Thriller is straight out of movie.
Eddie Van Halen is widely considered one of the greatest guitar players of all time, but to his son Wolf, he was just dad (and a bandmate).
— Wolf Van Halen (@WolfVanHalen) October 6, 2020
Wolf is just 29. Eddie was only 65. I'm 28 and my dad is 60, so you may already know what I'm about to say, but I'll say this every time someone dies until one of my parents or I do; when people near your/your parent's age pass away it just hit a little closer to home. I was shocked to see Eddie was so young. As is tradition.
I didn't want to just regeratate wikipedia, so I thought sharing a personal story of how I was introduced to Van Halen would be better. If you are looking for a more in depth look at the life of Eddie Van Halen you can click THIS.
When someone as truly legendary and innovative as Eddie Van Halen passes away it's going to send shockwaves through rock n'roll. Here's what a few musicians had to say about Eddie and what he meant to them.
Innovative wasn't just some filler adjective, Eddie Van Halen literally changed music.
R.I.P. Eddie Van Halen. I'm going to jam to all your classics with my roommates in your honor tonight.
P.S. This selfless move posthumously earns EVH a seat at the hashtag good guy table. Who knows how different music history is it this trade doesn't happen? via:
