George Kittle is right, and he <em>should</em> say it
An NFL season with two bye weeks, which the 49ers tight end advocated for on comedian Kevin Hart’s Cold As Balls show, could solve some scheduling and logistical issues for the league as well as allow athletes to have more time to recover during the season. ...

How many women does it take to convince Deshaun Watson deniers?
How many will it take? The answer wasn’t 10. It wasn’t 20. We’re quickly approaching 30 — perhaps that will be the number of women coming forward with allegations of sexual misconduct about Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson that will finally get people to stop defending him or claiming that all of t...

Weatherman goes viral after clowning Dallas Cowboys
Rooting for the Dallas Cowboys has become an arduous task. Even mentioning the Cowboys and postseason success in the same sentence is oxymoronic in the 21st century. Mississippi weatherman and weekend anchor Ethan Bird knocked one out of the park when he inserted a Cowboys joke into his 10-day forec...

Little Caesars and the NFL together, as they know what their customers want
There will be no more Craig Robinson and JuJu Smith-Schuster Super Bowl pizza commercials. Because the NFL feels the need to let the world know that they have an official sponsor for everything whether it be pizza, beer, or tablets that Tom Brady smashes into pieces....

Jack Del Rio isn’t the only ‘Jack Del Rio’ in the NFL
Jack Del Rio is a coward....

A.J. Brown, reminding us of a time when social media nonsense was fun and not dangerous
It would be nice if we could frequently have fun on social media like A.J. Brown did on Friday. If people were responsible, we could throw random thoughts out and have ironic detailed conversations about the legitimacy of them. But it’s 2022, all fun can, and eventually will, be taken the wrong way....

DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy: Andy Reid does not talk to rookies
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is one of the greatest coaches of his era and possesses one of the more creative offensive minds the NFL has seen over the last 20 years. Like any coach, Reid has a set of rules and guidelines he lives by, and one that was revealed recently might shock you. Ap...

Jack Del Rio’s receives $100K fine/civics lesson after referring to Jan. 6 as a ‘dustup’
In an attempt to save what little face the Commanders franchise has left, head coach Ron Rivera has fined defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio $100,000 for telling the world that he thought the Jan. 6 insurrection was a “dustup” and tweeting that the government should be investigating the 2020 Black L...

The JaMarcus Russell story is much more complicated than you think
JaMarcus Russell really does feel like one word. That’s the way that it goes for athletes like him, Tony Mandrich, Ryan Leaf, Anthony Bennett, and Trent Richardson. The reason for that, only one word comes to mind at the thought of them: Bust....

Chargers owner sued by sister, alleges hundreds of millions of dollars misused
Chargers fans of the world, rejoice — Dean Spanos, the widely hated part-owner of the L.A. Chargers, is being sued by his sister, Dea Spanos Berberian, for repeated misogynistic behavior toward his sisters and breaches of fiduciary duties in his management of the Spanos family trust....

Guess poor recruiting was all Brian Kelly’s fault
Notre Dame has landed a five-star quarterback — their highest-rated offensive commitment in a decade — in none other than C.J. Carr, the grandson of national-title winning Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr. This is the latest in a series of offseason wins for Marcus Freeman, who has yet to clock an act...

Aaron Rodgers’ rumored new admirer is just a normal hippie, not a witch
Guys, Aaron Rodgers isn’t dating a witch, and her name isn’t Blu of Earth. It’s just Blu, and she’s a podcast host as well as the founder of Florescence, a “modern mystery school for women to reclaim the magical, radically authentic, wise, wild, unapologetic you.”...

Pro Football Focus is just doing this to make people lose it
Let me give a disclaimer, so this doesn’t come off as a complete trashing of the analytics community. Yes, advanced stats and analytics have a place in the game of football and sports in general. But they are not…I repeat, NOT the end all be all....

EA Sports had better not push these kids away from Madden
The Madden franchise in recent years has shown the necessity of true competition for capitalism to function properly. Madden hasn’t competed with another NFL video game franchise since NFL 2K5. Some people have fond memories of that game, though personally I believe that’s the wannabe hipster crowd ...

Cam Newton has become Cam Newton’s biggest problem
Hey Cam, less is more....

Deshaun Watson made appointments with how many different massage therapists?
I don’t know about the rest of you, but one of my least favorite tasks is shopping around for goods and services. It’s one of the hard parts about moving to a new city. A person needs a grocery store, dry cleaner, hair stylist, mechanic, doctor, dentist, late night convenience store and more. All th...

Jack Del Rio paints Capitol insurrection as 'dustup' in moronic commentary
Federal investigations into the Washington Commanders’ ownership, revelations of sexual misconduct, and a too-little-too-late name change just didn’t do it for them, I guess. Really, are they under some sort of curse that forces them to humiliate themselves until they, like, carry Zero up the mounta...
