The Humanization Of Vince Young

Vince Young In Dire Need Of Media Training


Vince Young should probably just take a vow of silence or hire a full-time transcriber to follow him around when he's talking to the media, because it appears he's having trouble translating his own words. Last week, Young apparently told NFL.com writer Thomas George that he was considering retirement, but this week, he says, well, something else: More »

The Humanization Of Vince Young

Vince Young Talks About His Rebound From NFL Joylessness

Well, Vince Young is having himself an active offseason so far. First, he had to explain himself and apologize for that shirtless night out with his Texas cronies and, now, he's admitting that the pressures of the NFL almost drove him to retire after his first season. More »

The Thumbtack Turns 10

The Tennessee Titans are turning 10 years old this year, which means we have been dealing with that ridiculous logo for a decade now. Old, old, old, all of us. More »

Prepare Thyself For ... Pac Man Jones Strip Club News

OK, now we hope you are sitting down. Take a drink of water. Relax. Deep breaths. OK. Are you ready? Are you really ready? Because you're gonna need some time to digest this one: Pac Man Jones is in trouble with the law again. More »

Chargers vs. Titans, Second Half and Goodnight


It's been a while since I last checked in, but it's still the same football game. We're well into the third quarter of the final game of Wild Card Weekend '08 Bukkake and this game is dragging along with a score of 6-3. Tennessee is winning, Floats (pictured) i really crappy, and LaDainian is still lacking swag. If anything actually happens I'll be happy to provide updates after the jump (if not, it's been an interesting weekend and I thank you for reading)... More »

Chargers vs. Titans, This Time It's For Real

You thought Philip Rivers was needlessly cocky before? Well it's playoff time baby, time to step up the douche! The real key is to see just how close Norv Turner can keep this thing. Nobody holds back a dynamic team in the playoffs like Norv Turner! Enjoy, and stay tuned after the jump... More »

All Hail The Great Kerry Collins

Tiny tidbits and news niblets from the final week of the NFL season ...

• It sure is nice seeing Kerry Collins back, isn't it? Remember when Kerry Collins was a big controversial figure? He got DUIs before it was cool to get DUIs. Collins has been around longer than you realize; he actually took over for Frank Reich, for crying out loud. Vince Young should be fine for the playoff game next week, which is kind of a shame; it might have been fun to see Collins' goofy arm hitch in the playoffs one more time. Not that we have much hope for the Titans anyway; when Kerry Collins is your savior, not even facing Norv Turner will be enough to keep you around long.

Tonight: Tennessee Titans Vs. Indianapolis Brown Colts

As you no doubt already know, the Titans control their own playoff fate tonight as they battle the Indianapolis Colts in the RCA Dome. Win, and they're in. Lose, and they're ... um ... what's bad and rhymes with lose? Bruised? Sure. Lose, and they're bruised. That, and the Browns get to massage their horse balls for one more week. More »

That Gripping AFC West

We will confess, we did not watch the Monday Night Football game last night; we had a concert, the Illini were on and, frankly, we're gonna get enough football in the coming days. But we take solace in knowing there's a division worst than the Buzzsaw's NFC West. More »

Here We Are, Back In Denver Again


Jeez, didn't Denver just host a "Monday Night Football" game? That's right, they did, just three weeks ago, in the game when Brett Favre made everyone all weepy again. We thought we remember that. More »

That'll Be All For The Saints

It's The AFC South Pants Party


Come on, somebody ... don't pick the Colts. We dare ya.

Some picks!

AJ Daulerio: Colts, Titans, Jaguars, Texans.
Kissing Suzy Kolber: Colts, Jaguars, Texans, Titans.
Robert Weintraub, Slate: Colts, Jaguars, Titans, Texans.
Matt Pitzer, USA Today: Colts, Titans, Texans, Jaguars.
Aaron Schatz, Football Outsiders: Jaguars, Colts, Texans, Titans.
Sports Illustrated: Colts, Titans, Jaguars, Texans.
DEADSPIN: Colts, Jaguars, Titans, Texans. We really wanted to demote the Jaguars for being so institutionally disorganized that they cut their starting quarterback a week before the season — and Leftwich is better anyway — but we think it's going to be a long year for Mr. Young. Freaking Madden Curse! More »

Pac Man Jones, Making It Pain

Far be it from us to impugn the trustworthiness of professional wrestling, but when a court order comes down saying that the headliner of your pay-per-view event "could not touch or be touched, grapple, shove, throw or have anything thrown at him by anyone working for or watching the show," well, we're probably not gonna order your pay-per-view. No offense. More »

Titans To Pacman: You Shant Pretend Wrestle

When we last left our intrepid yet suspended NFL hero, which was yesterday, we were speculating the possibility of wrestlers exacting revenge on Pacman Jones for what one of Jones' lackeys did to a strip club bouncer-slash-wrestling hopeful. So either the Tennessee Titans are afraid something might happen to him during these rasslin' matches, or they just don't want Jones to earn any sort of paycheck this year. More »

NFL Season Preview: Tennessee Titans

Believe it or not, folks, the NFL season is much closer than you can possibly imagine. So close, in fact, that, if we're going to fit in every NFL team preview by the start of the season, we have to go this early. So there you have it.

Last year, we asked some of our favorite writers to opine why Their Favorite Team Was Better Than Yours. Ultimately, we found this constrictive, and it also might have killed James Frey. So this time, we've just asked them to just run free, talk about their team, their experience as a fan, their hopes, their dreams, their desires for oral sex. All our teams are now assigned; if you sent us an email and we didn't get back to you, we're sorry, and we accept your scorn. But today: The Tennessee Titans.

Your author is Clay Travis, a columnist for CBS Sportsline and author of the incredibly entertaining new book Dixieland Delight, about a season of Southeastern Conference football. His words are after the jump.

Kige Ramsey: Behind The Laughter


We all know the legend; now it's time to meet the man. In a rare peek behind the scenes of his YouTube broadcasting empire, Kige Ramsey presents viewers with an actual blooper reel (someone added a laugh track, which really wasn't necessary); plus, he gives us an exclusive look at the top of the very refrigerator from which he films his sports reports.

Vince Young Does Not Fear Hard Surfaces


Winning the Turnover Battle has found video of the Titans' practice altercation between Vince Young and safety Donny Nickey on Wednesday, noteworthy for no other reason, really, than the fact that Young punched Nickey in the head while Nickey was wearing his helmet. And yes, Young did it with his throwing hand. Smart. More »
