Michigan Offense Drives Man To Drink, Drive Drunk
Around 2:30 a.m. on Nov. 3, hours after Michigan's embarrassing loss to Michigan State, Dearborn police responded to a call about a man asleep in his car at a gas station.

Gronk, On Asian Fan: "They Told Me He Could Only Cook Fried Rice"

Florida Ruined The NFL
Burn Florida. Sterilize the entire state of its NFL teams as you would an MRSA contamination. Float it into the Gulf, Bugs Bunny-style. Send the NFL to Los Angeles or London or Lucknow, anywhere but the Sunshine State—professional football cannot thrive on its saline soils. After an ugly, addled Mon...
Buckeye's "Wipe The Field" Boast Is The Future Of FBS Shit-Talk

The Problem With Bitching About Fourth Downs And Two-Point Conversions
It's funny how the analytics of a sport can often mirror the sport itself. Sabermetrics are as regimented (or more) as the national pastime ever was; basketball analytics have progressed into lively, intersecting data points thanks to new player tracking technology; and heady football talk often en...
People Keep Tweeting Hate And Support At The Wrong Jonathan Martin

An Emotional Shannon Sharpe Rips The Dolphins Locker Room
On CBS's pregame show, Shannon Sharpe had some very strong words for the Dolphins, less about their handling of the Incognito-Martin fallout, and more about a locker room that let things get to the point where a white player can call a teammate a "half-nigger" and it's supposed to be taken in good h...
How Peter King Got His (Late) Dog Because Of The Redskins
It's almost not fair to write about putting down an aged dog, because there's no possible way you can read it and not get misty-eyed. (Bill Simmons's piece on his late dog remains one of the best things he's ever written). Today it's Peter King's turn to pay tribute to Twitter-famous Bailey, who was...

Rob Ryan Had Drinks With Saints Fans After Beating The Cowboys

How Long Can Peyton Manning's Bum Ankle Hold Up?
Yes, that is a football in Peyton Manning's crotch, and he's not just happy to see you. In fact, he's in an awful lot of pain. So while the Broncos won again, and the offense remained on a record pace, it's not absurd to wonder if Manning's right ankle is a time bomb just waiting to sabotage a seaso...
