James Harrison Didn't Sack Michael Vick Because He Was "Worried More About A Fine"
Since the NFL instituted its "more significant discipline" for shots to the head two years ago, James Harrison has been a remorseless re-offender. He's been fined six times under the new protocol, and he's seemingly bitched about it just as often. Hell, even after his destruction of Colt McCoy la...

Bengals Cheerleader Pleads Guilty To Sexing Up High School Student, Leaves Courthouse With Him
Sarah Jones has had a busy couple of years. In 2010, the former Ben-Gal (ugh) attempted to sue TheDirty.com for claiming she was riddled with STDs from sleeping with Cincinnati players. That was good! (Although her lawyer mistakenly sued the wrong company, so she was unable to collect.) In December ...

Like Everyone Else, DeAngelo Williams Doesn't Care About Your Fantasy Team
Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams had a disappointing game on Sunday, carrying the ball six times for six yards and fumbling once.

The Air-Humping Chicago Bears Assistant Coach Is Really Gross [UPDATE: The Air-Humper Has Been Identified]
Gross. That is really gross, dude. You're way too old to be doing stuff like this. I'm sure the "Hey loogit me y'all, I'm humpin' air. Hee haw!" routine used to be really funny back in your college days, but you're a grown-up now; a grown-up who should know that air-humping—especially while using ...

The Jets Are In Line For An Attendance Debacle Tonight
It's been reported that as of Friday, the Jets had 12,000 tickets remaining unsold for tonight's game against the Texans. It's understandable. MetLife Stadium is a remarkably joyless place to watch your team lose 59-6. But there have been no whispers of a blackout, so we can assume Woody Johnson has...

Cris Collinsworth Knows More About What's Going On With The San Diego Chargers Than Norv Turner
Cris Collinsworth predicted exactly how this game would end after noticing Jared Gaither lumbering before the final play, noting "Gaither looks lame, he's gonna have to get some help here or Wilson's gonna get a sack to end this game."
