Down a point and the clock running out, the Cardinals had one and only one chance to win the game: Intentionally the Jets score a touchdown, and get the ball back with two minutes left.

This is Mark Swanson, from Lakeland, Minn.

Well, Isn't This Just The Cheekiest Backheel Goal?
There's a ton of history between AFC Wimbledon and Milton Keynes Dons. MK Dons began life as Wimbledon, before a controversial move brought a new name—and left Wimbledon without a team.

Charlie Batch Used To Hand Off To Barry Sanders, That's How Damned Old He Is
Ed Reed threw some shade at Charlie Batch, who was far from elite but at least outplayed Joe Flacco in the Steelers' win in Baltimore. But no one was expecting greatness.

Two Virginia Tech Players Charged With Building, Setting Off Explosive Device [Update]

Dwayne Bowe Salutes Jovan Belcher By Wearing A T-Shirt With His Name Misspelled

Fans Throw 21,000 Teddy Bears Onto The Ice After Goal
Often imitated, never duplicated, the WHL's Calgary Hitmen's annual Teddy Bear Toss is the best spectacle in junior hockey, and it's for a good cause.

"Man In Purple Sombrero" Arrested After Massive Brawl Outside Vikings-Packers Game
Green Bay cops are doing that thing where they won't officially say whether a fight involving 20-30 people outside Lambeau Field, which saw two arrested and one man hospitalized, had anything to do with the football game. I think we can probably read between the lines, though....

Jets Fan Breaks Out The Mark Sanchez "Buttfumble" Jersey
It was over long before Greg McElroy put on his helmet, wasn't it? Mark Sanchez lost his team last week, when he ran headfirst into a lineman's ass.
