    Football night in D.C. on election eve courtesy of D.C. Sports Bog:

    "And the night remained somewhat political as the game approached, with all manner of political signs. Heather Knighton's advised fans to Vote Jim Zorn 4 President, "because he's hot," she explained. "I mean, if Obama can run, anybody can run, right?""

    After the jump, Tony Kornheiser, Ron Jesse Raphael, and Mike Tirico discuss politics before football.... More »

    Hey, Wait A Minute, Didn't Braylon Edwards Go To Michigan?

    Here's Cleveland wide receiver Braylon Edwards proudly representing the school logo ... unfortunately though, it's the wrong school. We know that the Wolverines have been struggling lately, but Penn State, a Big Ten rival? That's cold, man. More »

    Giants Fear Dreaded Bone Lady Trap Game

    I'll put some of the inevitable gloom-and-doom reports of the Red Sox/Rays game after it's over should the score hold up — still 5-0 Rays, Sox fans booing — but let's not forget there's also a Monday Night Football game this evening between the NFC East leading New York Giants and the still-waiting-for-Brady Quinn Cleveland Browns. The woman seen above is Cleveland's "second most famous Browns fan", Debra Darnall, who is nicknamed the Bone Lady for reasons which are hopefully obvious. Darnall has taken her love of the Cleveland Browns and latent mental illness and turned it into a positive. More »

    Seriously, Did Tony Kornheiser Have Electroshock Therapy Before The Game Last Night?

    Everything about the man seemed a bit ... off. From his wacky hair, to his glibness, to his bad jokes, to his worshipful Dallas Cowboy comments. And, of course, there was the odd apology he threw out there, after making this remark: More »

    DeSean Jackson's End Zone Brainfartery Will Be Overlooked -- For Now

    Yes, last night was disappointing in many ways, but it has not completely killed my faith: I still like my team. If anything, last night's Eagles/Cowboys game proved that Donovan McNabb is fully-recovered and that DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia's own Barack Obama, is still on pace to be the greatest Eagles' receiver in history. Obama's final line: six receptions, 110 yards. Oh. Wait. Did he do something else? Right. That. More »

    There Is Access Right There In Front Of The Croissant Table


    This morning I attended the "ESPN NFL Kickoff Breakfast and Session with George Bodenheimer" in New York at the Bryant Park Hotel where " executives, producers and on-air commentators " were made "available to discuss the upcoming season..." and I still don't know why.

    I phoned Leitch about coming into New York today for this "ESPN breakfast thing" and was vague about the details and it wasn't until I was in the downstairs Cellar Bar, with its dungeon-y looking chandeliers at the Bryant Park Hotel staring into the gleaming eyes of ESPN's Executive Senior Vice President of Studio and Event Production, Norby Williamson (Norby!), counting his teeth, firmly gripping his hand, that I realized maybe I'd fluttered too close to the damn sun. This was a "press event" to the nth degree, with a roomful of ESPN's top brass and a most of the Monday Night Football crew here to officially "kickoff" the new season: There's Ron Jaworski laughing like a Sesame Street character. There's Tirico looking like a bank owner. There's Cris Carter looking surly and confused. No Kornheiser. This is dangerous, unsettling ground. This is "access."

    I should really take more time to read press releases. Or, better, not read them at all. More »

    Ron Jaworski: Yes, I Know I Look Like An Old Lesbian


    Former Philadelphia Eagles' quarterback and current Monday Night Football analyst, Ron Jaworski, is well aware that he's not winning any "Most Masculine Bifocals" awards anytime soon. In fact, he promises that the specs he'll don this year won't have so many people confusing him with Sally Jesse Raphael anymore. He hopes. Jaws spoke about his bespectacled boobery with Dan Levy of On The DL(podcast) and vowed to make a change: More »
