Takkarist McKinley Is Enjoying Life

Jets And Browns Exchange Hostages
The Jets and Browns made a rare player-for-player trade this morning, with safety Calvin Pryor going to Cleveland and inside linebacker Demario Davis headed back to North Jersey. Because both players are Jets draft busts, this deal feels like a ransom agreement....
ESPN Reporter Walks Off In Middle Of Live Shot
That’s Todd Archer, ESPN’s Dallas Cowboys beat man, just up and taking off on Hannah Storm during today’s 10 a.m. Eastern edition of SportsCenter. Just a hunch, but from the way he appears to reach into his pocket and glance at his phone before ghosting, Archer may have gotten a call (from a source?...

Ron Rivera Would Appreciate If You Wouldn't Talk About Kelvin Benjamin Looking Fat

Ryan Grigson finally left the Indianapolis Colts in January after five seasons as the team’s GM. He picked Andrew Luck and T.Y. Hilton but the team stalled out under his guidance and he utterly failed to build anything close to a suitable offensive line to protect his MVP-level quarterback. Jim Irsa...
Brock Osweiler Says There's Proof That He Doesn't Suck
Maybe Brock Osweiler will be a better quarterback for the Browns. It’s possible that the Texans’ offensive scheme didn’t make the most of his abilities, which led him to throw 15 touchdowns against 16 picks and complete 59 percent of his 510 pass attempts. (This is admittedly an incredibly generous ...
Let's Stop Pretending To Care When NFL Players Skip OTAs
Every May, without fail, the NFL storylines are the same. (Take, for example, “the most May 22 tweet of all time.”) A particularly common one is the raft of headlines shouting “[PLAYER] Is Skipping OTAs,” followed by reams of copy that purport to explain why, and what it all means. It means nothing....

Jack Del Rio Wants To Know What's Really Going On With Seth Rich's Murder
Oakland Raiders head coach Jack Del Rio seems to be a man willing to a hear out a broad variety of opinions on a topic.

The Raiders Robbed Las Vegas In America's Worst Stadium Deal
When the Las Vegas Raiders kick off in 2020, they’ll be playing in the most expensive stadium in the world.

Humorless Butthole Roger Goodell Concludes That Fun Is Good<em></em>
Good news for you, valued NFL customer! After a string of long, pizza-less nights, and after a handful of forced interrogations with acceptably polite NFL players, and after Jerry Jones probably ordered him around for a bit, commissioner Roger Goodell would like you to know that the league has decid...
