I'm usually not really that into football. I know that sounds weird, but I am secure in my manhood and it doesn't bother me to say that. Ha ha. Seriously though, football for me is just fun and food with my family on Sundays. But this year I decided to play Fantasy Football with some friends and family members and have caught myself being way more engaged than I ever have been in the sport. Peyton Manning has annoyed the crap out of me ever since he started being in pretty much every commercial on TV. Anyways, since I'm in the football mood and in the running to win the Fantasy Football pool I need for Christmas money, here's a pretty hilarious SNL video that has helped me gain some more respect for Mr. Manning. Enjoy:

MUTT D.I.Y PVC - By Tyler
MUTT D.I.Y PVC
by: Tyler
The idea behind MUTT was to create a D.I.Y. that you could not only custom, but could custom build before you even get the toy to achieve more of what want. MUTT, appropriately named, is just that. you can mix and match any accessories giving you more options in the D.I.Y. side of things than were available before. the "shell" itself is an ambiguous shape that lends its self to go any direction you would want to take it.by: Tyler
MUTT is made of poly vinyl chloride (PVC) and stands 5 inches long, 3 inches tall, and 3 inches wide. the material is easily manipulated with small amounts of heat and takes paint and sculpy extremely well.
FREE SHIPPING ON ORDERS PLACED BEFORE THE NEW YEAR!

- shutter shades - arms - rounded animal ears - pointed animal ears - pig snout - mustache - angel wings - bat wings - block teeth - round teeth - haggard teeth - devil horns reg. - devil horns large - bunny ears (Click here to see photos)
