Correction of the Year December 20th, 2005 @ 11:24 am PST
Actual correction from last week’s San Francisco Chronicle: “A story about mathematical references mistakenly said that 1,782 to the 12th power plus 1,841 to the 12th power equals 1,922 to the 12th power. Actually, 1,782 to the 12th power plus 1,841 to the 12th power equals 2,541,210,258,614, 589,176,288,669,958,142,428,526,657 while 1,922 to the 12th power equals […]
Um! Yah! Yah! October 4th, 2005 @ 12:14 pm PDT
This week’s Tuesday Morning Quarterback includes a delicious link to college football’s funniest fight song. It also includes the best football commentary on the web, and a little bit about that lovable V’Ger, from the first Star Trek movie.

Penthouse Error October 30th, 2002 @ 7:40 am PST
Last spring Penthouse magazine, after announcing the publication of topless photos of Anna Kournikova, had to pay a judgment and issue an apology to model Judith Soltesz-Benetton, the woman really in the pictures. On Miami Beach, Soltesz-Benetton had been seeking a suntan without lines when she was glimpsed by Frank Ramaesiri, a vacationing salesman from […]
Bledsoe = Tough October 30th, 2002 @ 7:28 am PST
It took Drew Bledsoe exactly two games to have the best passing day in 43 years of Buffalo Bills history. Bledsoe threw for 463 yards, three touchdowns and no picks against Minnesota, a bigger single-game yardage total than any compiled by Bills Hall of Famer Jim Kelly or Pro Bowl QBs Jack Kemp, Joe Ferguson […]
TMQ January 9th, 2002 @ 12:20 am PST
Another terrific excerpt from the Tuesday Morning Quarterback: In the NFL there are high-scoring 45-42 games and low-scoring 13-9 games; games that feature the pass and games that feature the run; there are games where teams try wild things and games when teams go conservative; there are games decided by a few sudden big breaks […]
TMQ December 25th, 2001 @ 9:14 am PST
Observations like this are why I love to read Tuesday Morning Quarterback: This season, style demands that NFL players on the sidelines don baseball caps, often worn backward. Look closely next time you see a shot of a backward cap on an NFL star. TMQ has been doing this lately, and has noticed-the adjustable bands […]
TMQ December 25th, 2001 @ 1:58 am PST
In other NFL news, NBC has announced that during halftime of the Super Bowl, it will air a 20-minute special of the drek “reality” show Fear Factor – reality shows” being the least real things on television – in which the contestants are six former Playboy Playmates of the Year. Swimsuits will surely be required […]
TMQ November 28th, 2001 @ 1:20 am PST
There is a guy named Gregg Easterbrook writing for the sports section of Slate.com. Gregg runs a mailing list called TMQ – Tuesday Morning Quarterback. If you are a football fan you should go with much haste and abandon to join the list. He is hysterical and brilliant. Every Tuesday night you’ll receive a wonderful […]
