In case you want your New Year's party invitation rescinded...

Normally during the holiday season, you're supposed to send out Christmas cards to friends and people you know. Even though you may not enjoy doing this, it's at least a good, friendly gesture that people appreciate during the holidays.

But the times they are a changing, my friend.

ESPN has decided to add some flavor to an old holiday tradition, and by "add some flavor to", I mean "completely take a dump on."

Yes, there are now 8 stupid "Holiday Smack Cards" that you can send out to insult people during the Christmas holiday. Which is a great idea. Nothing says Christmas cheer like getting a holiday card that calls you a loser.

The e-cards also directly target the Yankees, Chicago Bears, and Notre Dame. The least original may be Grossman and Griese throwing "gift-wrapped" interceptions to defensive backs. It took a brilliant mind to come up with that. Probably the same brilliant mind that came up with the "Enjoy the Whatever Bowl loser!" insult. There is no comeback to that my friends.

Sometimes an idea is so bad, it's good. And other times, an idea is so bad, it should be buried 6-feet deep and never discussed again. This is one of the latter.

......Good God.

How original ESPN. Man, these people are out of touch. I bet when they came up with the "Whatever Bowl, loser!", the person received high-fives and applause.

ESPN never ceases to amaze me :)

"Enjoy the Whatever Bowl, Loser" - Which will air December 29th on ESPN 2. Make sure you join the pregame show with Chris Berman and Kirk Wrong Way Street.

I laughed out those like I laugh at the "Boom goes the dynamite" guy. Its so horrible, its funny for all the wrong reasons.

These are about as bad as Page 2's "Inside the brain of.." segments.
