My Wife Handicaps Super Bowl XLVI

Actual wife not pictured

It’s Super Bowl week—which for many men is the most important gambling day of the year. The one question on gamblers’ minds everywhere is not who will win the game, but which team will cover the spread.

Last year, not knowing whom to pick, I consulted with my wife, who knows next to nothing about football, with the hopes she would be my good-luck charm.  Amazingly, not only did she accurately predict that the Packers would cover the spread but she nearly got the score of the game right.

So I decided to consult her once again in hopes that she could pick me another winner. Here’s how our conversation went… (more…)

Bad News for Blow Jobs: Oral Sex May Cause Mouth Cancer

According to a study by the Journal of the American Medical Association, an estimated 7 percent of American teens and adults carry the human papillomavirus (HPV) in their mouths. Infection with the HPV virus heightens the risk of developing cancer of the mouth and throat. (more…)

The Super Bowl XLVI Drinking Game

Super Bowl 46 Drinking GameThis is always a great time of year at Living with Balls. The Super Bowl is around the corner, which is usually exciting in its own right. But because I create my annual Super Bowl drinking game, I see a huge spike in visits. My pageviews nearly double because of it. Apparently, there are plenty of degenerates in this country looking to get obliterated during the Super Bowl.

I’m not a big drinker these days but I plan on getting blitzed on Super Bowl Sunday. As a Jets fan, I couldn’t imagine a worse Super Bowl than Patriots vs. Giants. Sure it was great in 2008, when the Giants took down the undefeated Pats. I was right there, rooting for Big Blue. But now I’m just tired of it. I have obnoxious Giants fans gloating to me in one ear and even more obnoxious Patriots fans gloating in the other. I hope to get good and drunk and forget the result of the game.

But enough about me. You came here to find a Super Bowl drinking game. Well, you came to the right place. As always, I must warn you with this disclaimer:

This drinking game is not for the casual drinker. Proceed with caution. Living with Balls is not responsible if you get violently ill from playing this game. Feel free to adjust the rules to your tolerance or just quit playing when you’re good and drunk.

I have set up a game for both beer and shots. You’re welcome to do one or the other, or play both if you’re feeling daring. (more…)

It’s been another fun year at Living with Balls.  The frequency of my posts decreased in 2011 but I’d like to think the quality was as good as ever.  Here were the five most popular posts in 2011 based on pageviews, Facebook/ Twitter shares, and comments.

The Great Debate: Well-Endowed or Good Looking?

Does size matter?There are plenty of ways for a man to attract a woman. Being good-looking is the most obvious way to do it but being well-endowed certainly doesn’t hurt either. Some men are blessed with both and have no trouble bringing home women.

But what if you could only choose one? Would you prefer to be extremely handsome with a dick so small that you could never truly pleasure a woman OR would your rather be ugly with a dick so big you could make even the loosest women squeal with delight?

It’s time for another edition of “The Great Debate.” (more…)

Here’s Further Reason LeBron James Doesn’t Compare to Michael Jordan

Jordan vs. LebronEver since LeBron James has come into the league, he has drawn comparisons to Michael Jordan. Both are unbelievable athletes and the best basketball players of their generations. One of the main differences between the two, aside from the six championships Jordan won and the zero championships LeBron currently has, is that Jordan was universally loved during his playing days and LeBron is hated by just about everyone outside of Miami.

As if you needed more reason to dislike LeBron and all that he stands for, here is an excerpt from a recent Sports Illustrated article. SI caught up with Walter Iooss Jr., who is perhaps the most accomplished sports photographer of all-time. Iooss dished out some interesting anecdotes about his run-ins with some of sport’s most iconic athletes. Of course, he had great stories about both MJ and LeBron. (more…)
