RYAN LEAF – DIARY OF AN NFL PUNCHLINE


Ryan Leaf

The NFL in our opinion is the ultimate professional sports league.  Where the strongest, fastest, toughest athletes compete for the ultimate honor.  The league that brought you John Elway, Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady.  Few will argue that these men are the pinnacle of professional athlete, a perfect combination of intelligence, decision-making, and God-given athletic ability.  There is no position in all of professional sports that requires such perfection.

So that Cyndi Lauper reunion tour just sold out and you’re pissed.  You waited too long to get those coveted tix and now the show is totally sold out. StubHub is a scalpers paradise.  Gone are the days you had to stand out in front of the venue and buy tickets from some sketchy dude carrying a sign with “I need tickets” on one side and “will work for food” on the other.
