Cowboys RB Joseph Randle Cracked Jokes In Jail, Asked For A Massage
Cowboys running back Joseph Randle was booked in Frisco County Jail after he allegedly stole cologne and underwear from a Dillard's earlier this month. Watching surveillance footage from the jail, Randle was oddly relaxed about the arrest, making jokes and offering an officer $100 for a massage....
Here's An Odd Legal Journal Letter About The NFL And The Ray Rice Tapes
A couple of tipsters have pointed us to an anonymous question printed in the October issue of the New York State Bar Association Journal. Take it with a grain of salt, but correspondent "Tim Troubled" says his firm dealt with a pro sports league that sounds a lot like the NFL, and a pro athlete who ...
This Is The Problem With Saying "Redskins" On TV
OK, so it's an ad, and as a rule we don't participate in advertising campaigns. We're making an exception here, though, because the commercial above quietly makes a good point that we made bluntly not too long ago, about the normalization of a racial slur....
Bill Belichick Likely To Study Tape Of His Slaying Of Reporter
We've gone over this before, but Bill Belichick's adept at letting reporters draw out their questions before he shuts them down with curt answers. (It's entertaining, if your job isn't covering the Patriots.) Naturally, the media wanted to talk about Peyton Manning vs. the Patriots today, and Belich...
DeSean Jackson Will Catch Deep Balls No Matter Who Throws To Him
Washington has started three quarterbacks this season in an effort to find one that works. It's been terrible. Despite the shuffling, one offensive player hasn't been affected much at all: DeSean Jackson, the big-play receiver with the busted quarterbacks, has kept busting up defenses. ...
Missing Broncos Fan "Had His Fill Of Football," Tried To Hitchhike Home
Police have located Paul Kitterman, a 53-year-old man from Kremmling, Col. who disappeared while attending last Thursday's Broncos game. He was found in Pueblo, Col., which is about 100 miles away from Denver....

Jerry Jones: Tony Romo's Status Depends On His Pain Tolerance
The good: Tony Romo's new back injury isn't related to his surgery, and it won't end his season. The bad: That's only true if you believe Jerry Jones....
Tampa Bay's Overtime Fumble Was The Most Costly Fuckup In Week 8
After receiving the ball to start overtime, Tampa Bay could have ended the game with a touchdown drive. But Tampa tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins fumbled on the first scrimmage play of overtime, and Minnesota linebacker Anthony Barr returned the fumble for a touchdown, which ended the game and...
Watch This Obnoxious Cardinals Fan Get Drunker And Drunker
At Sunday's Eagles-Cardinals game, reader Jonathan found himself sitting behind one Arizona fan as he stumbled the fine line between boisterous and "so blitzed he should be ejected." Jonathan put together this video of that fan's highlights. It really tells a story....
Jerry Jones Is Fucking Crazy
It was only a matter of time before Jerry Jones fucked it all up. I covered the Cowboys for NBC's Dallas affiliate for a few years, and covering the Cowboys is an easy job because Jerry Jones never stops talking to the media, and is a completely fucking insane person. He is a man who abhors a vacu...
Wade Phillips Watched His Old Team From The Upper Deck Last Night
Wade Phillips coached the Dallas Cowboys for almost four seasons, and despite getting fired after leading the team to a 1-7 start in 2010, he left Dallas with a decent overall record of 34-22. That record apparently isn't enough to get Phillips a decent ticket to see his old team play, though, becau...
Jerry Jones Was Weirdly Hands-On For Tony Romo's Return
Every Cowboys fan in America held their breath when Tony Romo took a knee to his surgically repaired back. Not Jerry Jones. The Cowboys owner/GM/head trainer leaped into action....
PR Guy Pulls Colt McCoy Away From ESPN Deportes Interview: "No Means No"
Colt McCoy was the hero of tonight's big Washington win over Dallas, and so it figures that he'd be doing the run through of all the ESPN networks—given they hold the broadcast rights to Monday Night games, after all. Turns out a PR handler doesn't want McCoy talking to ESPN's Spanish-language Depor...
Tony Romo Knocked Out Of Game Vs. Washington With Apparent Back Injury
Tony Romo failed to make it through the third quarter of the Cowboys' battle at home against the Redskins tonight after a sack by Keenan Robinson left the Dallas quarterback unable to rise from the turf for several minutes....
Radio Host Mike Francesa Rants About The Jets For Over Seven Minutes
The shit-ass Jets are 1-7 after getting smoked by the Buffalo Bills in a game that featured many grand embarrassments from the home team, so today was the perfect day for Mike Francesa to unleash a merciless rant about just how crappy this team is....
Family Searching For Man Who Disappeared At Broncos Game (UPDATE)
A group of Broncos fans are searching for a family member who they say disappeared while attending Thursday night's Broncos game in Denver. Paul Kitterman, a 53-year-old man from Kremmling, Col., went to the game with his son and two friends, but disappeared after leaving his seat at halftime....
This Failed Trick Play From The Jets Gets Sadder Every Time You Watch It
Upon reflection, the most embarrassing thing the New York Jets did yesterday was try to run the world's least effective trick play on a third-quarter kickoff return. I realize that's a bold statement to make, seeing as how this game also included Geno Smith turning in one of the worst quarterbacki...
Russell Wilson Blows Off Claims That He's "Not Black Enough"
With the Seahawks splitting with their most explosive players, and amid talk of locker-room strife, you could make that argument that this week was the first time the aggressively boring and uncontroversial Russell Wilson has had to face public adversity. You could, but Pete Carroll would tell you t...
