SubscribeJews and pig(skin) — week 15
- Tackle Igor Olshansky made one tackle as the Dallas Cowboys handed the New Orleans Saints their first loss of the season. Guard Kyle Kosier also started the game. Dallas sits at 9-5, vying for a Wild Card spot in the post-season.
- Carolina Panthers’ tackle Geoff Schwartz played in the team’s 20-10 loss to the New England Patriots. Unlike last week’s game, he was not used for a kick return.
- Aaron Podlesh made three punts (42 yard average, including a 52-yarder) in the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 35-31, last-minute loss to the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts on Dec. 17.
- The Minnesota Vikings lost 26-7 against the Carolina Panthers and still no Sage Rosnefels sighting. The Panthers’ Geoff Schwartz made his first NFL start at tackle. Mazeel tov, Geoff!
- San Diego Charger long-snapper David Binn appeared in the team’s 27-24 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
So, how hamishe is it for Jews to spend their time devoted to football? I guess it’s okay, as long as there’s a lesson to be learned from it, as deconstructed in this essay I found on Achas L’Maala V’Sheva L’Matta, a blog about “Everything you always wanted to ASK about the Chareidim [Ultra Orthodox] (but were afraid to KNOW).”
