Wait ... A Tolerable Monday Night Football Broadcast?
So we were watching ESPN's "Monday Night Football" last night, and we noticed this odd feeling, a peculiar sensation that we had, up to that point, never experienced.

It's Officially Madden Day
In case you were wondering why no one in your office is, you know, around today, it's because Madden 08 was released last night. Because we are afraid to leave our apartment, we order from Amazon, so we won't see the games for a couple more days. But if you aren't waiting that long, it's a big deay...

Darren McFadden's NFL Draft Status Downgraded From "Yes" To "Probably Yes"
Yesterday, in a story which Deadspin suspiciously omitted, ESPN reported that Darren McFadden was declaring for the NFL after his upcoming junior season, so sayeth his momma after a chat with Pat Forde. Because that was such a news scoop. After all, rarely do exciting, electric football players ever...
