About

Stan Silliman is a comedian/author/sports columnist located in Norman, Oklahoma. Stan was warped before it was the "in" thing.

His take on sports events tend to drift away from adoration and stats down to the furry, lint-filled, ticklish underbelly most people tend to ignore.

His urge to pen stories sprang from necessity as he was charged with telling bedtime stories to five younger siblings. When they tired of Seuss and Hardy Boys, he created a series of scary, adventure stories to fill a need.

If the stuff Stan writes blows your mind, it's because he still has a need , only now it is to make you just as warped as he is.

    i have look up wes welkers last few interview's and statement's and he doesn't say foot or toe's since he been in new england. he said it 11 time under 8 minutes right after the rex ryan foot fetish controversy came out. its funny how you are really are trying to defend wes walker like if the whole world doesn't know that he was trying to make fun of the jets.After the jets SANCHISE the patriots in his interview he doesn't say foot not even once. bill belichick knew what his player meant when he said foot 11 times so he benched him man up and move on dont defend that guy because you dont even know him are what kind of guy he is.Dont judge a book by its cover.

    Your an idiot. pat Dye is a coaching legend who coached under the Bear. What has Mike Leach done besides act like an idiot and get fired. He is a weirdo and just because you know a little about football doesnt mean you are not an idiot. Leach is probably still butt hurt about getting beat by a mediocre Bama team in the cotton bowl. Bama is by far the best team in the country. Its not even close. Probably the biggest gap between no. 1 and no. 2 in history.
