Morning Cup Of Joe
September 9th, 2025
Welcome to your Morning Cup of Joe, an eye-opener to help Joe’s readers ease into their busy workday with a few football links, wacky news and a pleasant distraction.
Not great for Cheetah Hill. [PFT]
Week 1 overreactions. [CBS]
Andy Reid doesn’t understand how one of his (famous) players can get blasted in the face and the culprit doesn’t get tossed. [NFL]
Hail State! [TikTok]
Dave Portnoy fires at Ryan Clark for his comments about non-players talking football. [Bro Bible]
Outkick is now getting a show on FS1. [Awful Announcing]
You probably heard about South Florida beating Florida in The Swamp over the weekend. Well, South Florida’s football revenue is around half of what Florida’s is. Yet that didn’t help the Gators on the field. [Front Office Sports]
UCLA quarterback gets slapped with a felony charge. But not the quarterback you may be thinking of. [Outkick]
Fake news. [Barstool Sports]
Grills, grills, grills. Dude sings better than Vince Neil currently does. [Instagram]
Dog vs. cat. [TikTok]
š"You have to cut him and get him out of here."@KenCarman keeps it simple to @SportsBoyTony about #Browns kicker Andre Szmyt.

āIāve never understood that, I get playing the game but thereās a lot of morons who have played the game, thereās a lot of bad GMs who have played football, a lot of bad coaches who have played football.ā – @stoolpresidente pic.twitter.com/HFh3jX6CT6

Revenue will matter little for UF, so long as Billy Napier continues to makes Lovie Smith look like a head coaching savant by comparison.

Actually, Vince Neil never had a good voice as a live performer. I saw Guns n Roses open for Motley Crue back in the day right before GnR blew up and was very disappointed in Neil’s voice. Tommy Lee’s drum cage saved the show though.

grills, grills, grills
I smoked some swordfish collar last weekend. Unbelievably delicious.

Overreactions and realities. I agree about Saleh. Jets loss, 49ers gain. Unsure about Josh being the best QB at this time. Still have a lot of games to play this season.
Winners and Losers – We won, Baker and the Bucs are the winners.

Cheetah Hill
The guy should already be in Raiford Joe. Folks have contiued to sweep his behavior under the rug to include assaulting an old man at a marina. POS and always has been.
Andy Reid
Not the time to rage to me about faces getting blasted…We brush a helmet with our pinky finger and get a penalty from a pretty piss poor official. Please stop the madness! Officials are out of control yet again but Roger thinks they are great sooo.
Gators
Didn’t the Bulls get close a few years ago? Gator fan here, but happy for USF. Need a change of scenery for the AD as well for the Gators. They have missfired on football coaches since Foley left. UF has issues…

Those old Warner cartoons are amazing. Great hand painted animation, original music and funny story lines. That one is probably about 80 years old. Go Bugs…errrr Bucs!!!
September 9th, 2025 at 8:17 am
So very happy about USF! And the photo in the article has Nico Gramatica shown, their kicker. Loving the Gramaticas!

Cheetah Hill
Only the Felon-in-Chief gets away with grabbing by the intimate parts

I like a Dave Portnoy, but he can be a turd at times. Calling out Clark as a race-baiter in this instance is simply race-baiting in itself. Clark said a foolish thing without having to pull that card.
Joe, have you ever said Mike Greenbergās opinion was of less value for being a non-player? I think you have, but maybe not.
September 9th, 2025 at 10:18 am
Not sure what you are referring to but Greenberg has some dumb takes. Rarely watch his show. The last time Joe remembers (and Joe doesn’t remember well with anything) is when he called for Bruce Arians to be fired in either September or October 2020.
And Joe (deservedly) roasted him for that, multiple times.

Joe – Quit with the restricted posts, OK?
September 9th, 2025 at 11:43 am
What restricted posts? Joe didn’t link to anything that is “restricted.”
If your work has you blocked from certain sites, Joe cannot help you. Joe does not have ESP and Joe cannot tell what sites your work will let you browse and what they won’t. If Joe had those kinds of superpowers, he’d use them for the winning Powerball numbers.
There is not one link that Joe had this morning that requires a paid subscription, either. So maybe you may want to consult your work IT manager.
The problem isn’t Joe’s links.

Is Nico Gramatica Bill or Martine’s son?
September 9th, 2025 at 4:07 pm
When I opened the article I said to myself, “Huh, that person looks like Martin Gramatica.” Then I looked at the name on the back of the jersey.
