Football America!

Meadowlark Media

Football America is a show about stories that matter—discussed by people who don’t. Why? Because this beautiful game deserves all of the spotlight. Football raised us. We obsess over it. We fight about it. We name our dogs after retired players, then name our children after those dogs. We talk football the way Sinatra sang songs: with conviction. And drunk. Each week, Dave Dameshek’s embarrassing habit of assigning meaning to frivolous stats is on full display as he is joined by a host of

Here are some takes: 1. Weird as it sounds to say about the reigning Super Bowl MVP, Jalen Hurts is officially holding the Eagles back. 2. NFL teams should make like MLB and hold locker-room celebrations after every playoff win. 3. The existence of Myles Garrett proves you shouldn’t break the bank on defensive players.

Glass half full, Bill Belichick - at least now you know she’s not into you for your coaching. Must be your rugged good looks. What we all already knew before last weekend even kicked off - there are only four or maybe five of those teams with an actual chance of winning the national championship. College football’s great.. except for the end part, when the elites head behind the velvet ropes into the vip area and everybody else gets to fight over Poptart and Mayo bowls. What’s the biggest surprise

Didya hear about the woman in West Virginia who framed the Pittsburgh Steelers tattoo she had taken off her dead husband’s arm? Now that’s what I call having some skin in the game. Pelts on the wall. Yes, as the Lincoln-driving philosopher Matthew McConaughey taught us, Time is a flat circle. You know what’s also a circle? A ring. Coaches are fond of saying “No one can ever take away that ring.” But of course, those rings can and have been taken, sold, or lost. Still, the spirit of the point stands:

I want everybody to be careful about reading too much - or anything, into preseason games, because they matter exactly as much as Zach Wilson’s turquoise jersey number. Preseason games are a month long lie for your eyes. they're the OG AI. They are the NFL’s version of a Civil War reenactment. They only look real. Well, unless you believe Skylar Thompson’s three touchdown performance over the weekend means the Steelers can now cut Aaron Rodgers. The only thing that matters is whether the guys who’ll
