So I guess ES and the NFL do have something in common – we don’t condone cheating.
Yes, I’m looking at you – Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots.
I’m also giving the death stare to the Skins, who clearly have perfected witchcraft, because there is no other way they could have cast such a spell on the Eagles.
Well, I guess we’ll always have wings.
Leave your point totals in the comments section.

Hope everyone’s eatin’ up today. We’re almost at the 4 o’clock games, so ordering another round of pitchers and wings is recommended.
Tomorrow we have the game to end all games…Skins v. Eagles. Be sure to save some room, and the use of your liver, for Monday Night Football watching eating.
Look out for a post on Tuesday – leave your point totals there.
Oh, and THIS is what I’m talking about.
Endless Readers –
So we learned a couple things from Week 1. Andy Reid is an idiot, the Redskins, Giants and Cowboys are all very hate-able, and mostly, Andy Reid is an idiot.
Nonetheless, we were also reminded that buffalo wings are damn delicious.
Further, at my spot in Fredericksburg, a slight twist to the Bleu Cheese was introduced, and I gladly welcomed the new “spice” (to be revealed next week.) This was not just a clever twist to the wing-eating experience; it rocked my world.
Two MNF games last night certainly made for a healthy week one, but next week the stakes are raised as there is less football hours over the course of the weekend.
Post jump, my totals and a few more thoughts

Editors Note: Our Philadelphia Eagles obsessed friend, broadandpattison, came up with this brilliant challenge to merge two favorites – eating and football. Enjoy having a gluttonous Fall 2007.
Thank you, broadandpattison.
Since the invention of the spork, there has been no greater innovation in modern history than the Thursday night NFL season opener. It is as thrilling as it is aggravating (I mean, football has started, but most likely for you, it hasn’t reaallllly started – you still have 2 days of waiting). This year, as the Colts kick-off against the Saints, everyone is 0-0, which means that even the Washington Redskins are tied for first. But this isn’t about how Redskin fans once again enter a season with an overpaid coaching staff and false expectations, or that Eli Manning has thrown 3 interceptions and the season hasn’t started yet, or even that Cowboy fans don’t seem to realize that Wade *&%$#@! Phillips is calling the shots; this is about something we can all agree on and something we can all celebrate together; the things we eat as we watch our teams break our hearts.
Endless Wing-Off Contest
I’d like to challenge all of the endlesssimmer readers to post the gourmet foods they’ll be eating each Sunday (Thursday and Monday night games included). Rules post-jump.

Just so we don’t incur a huge fine from the FCC for not allowing equal picture time for the candidates, here is Mr. Brown and Mr. Batali:

While the male version of our tastiest chef contest has not attracted quite as much attention as its feminine predecessor, this thing is shaping up to be a real nail-biter, with Anthony Bourdain clinging to a razor-thin lead over Jamie Oliver.
And now comes breaking news from America’s most trusted source, the NY Post, that due to his poor showing in this poll, Mario Batali has been axed from the Food Network. And we don’t mean axed like in he won’t get a fifteenth show. This is fired as in he is gone from everything, even Iron Chef.
We can neither confirm nor deny rumors that Mario Batali is prepared to pose naked on this blog as a last ditch attempt to win this contest and save his career.

It’s finally here! By popular demand, and by Gansie’s insistence that we not discriminate against people based on what genitals they were born with – the tastiest chef contest: male version. Thanks to everyone who suggested the potential candidates in the comments of the first food porn contest. We apologize if your favorite chef wasn’t included, but these men were picked not by the content of their character, but by the availability of embarrassing photos of them on the Internet.
For those of you who don’t waste every waking hour watching the food network, the contestants are, from left to right: beefcake Alton Brown, naked chef Jamie Oliver, dirty, dirty boy Anthony Bourdain, and Mario (can the Italians repeat?) Batali.
Vote, vote, vote! Tell your friends!
