Scout On Jameis Winston: "How Could You Let That Guy In The Building?"
Winston or Mariota? "This is the most important pick, potentially, in the history of the franchise," Buccaneers GM Jason Licht told The MMQB. Of course, only one of those guys comes with his own baggage train. ...
Jarell Martin Pulls Off In-Game East Bay Funk Dunk
You won't be faulted for thinking that you're watching a dunk contest here, but Jarell Martin managed to unleash this between-the-legs dunk during LSU's game against Florida today. As a native son of Oakland, I will always call this the East Bay Funk Dunk, so memorably coined by Isaiah "JR" Rider as...

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released quarterback Josh McCown after one season....
Reports: Mike McCarthy May Give Up Packers' Play-Calling Duties
There's an awful lot of smoke, now, to the rumor that Packers head coach Mike McCarthy is going to hand over the play-calling duties to his former offensive coordinator. The question now becomes: what does it mean? (Spoiler alert: nobody knows.)...
Cops: Letroy Guion Had Weed And $190K In Cash In His Truck
Letroy Guion is probably out a lot of money, and a lot of pot. It started when the Green Bay Packers DT got pulled over Tuesday night for failing to maintain a single lane by the police in his hometown, Starke, Fla., better known as the home of Old Sparky, Florida's once-infamous electric chair. (...
Baylor Woos Recruits With List Of Stores It Hopes Open In Waco Someday
Recruiting is about so much more than just playing time. It's about convincing an 18-year-old kid that your campus and its surroundings are fun place to spend the next four years. That can mean promising an In-N-Out when there's no actual In-N-Out on the way. ...

How To Bake Bay Scallops, And Prove That Size Isn't Everything
Seems like bay scallops get kind of a raw deal, doesn't it? At my local purveyor of seafoods, the big honkin' fist-sized sea scallops get a place of honor in the glass display case, while the bay scallops are stuck over in the freezer across the way, packed by the dozens into grim plastic bags, f...
Baylor Played An NAIA Team For The Sake Of A Dopey Movie
There's a noticeable oddity among today's college basketball box scores: The Baylor Bears, a nationally ranked Division I team, beat the hell out of the Huston-Tillotson Rams, an NAIA team that has a few Division I schools on its schedule, but has no real business playing against the big boys. The m...
Aaron Rodgers Doesn't Think God Is A Football Fan
Lots of people talkin' about God and football these days! Just a day after Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson blamed his four-interception NFC Championship game performance on God, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who was vanquished by Wilson (and possibly the Lord Almighty?!) in that game, was...
Aaron Rodgers Likes To Tamper With Footballs, Too
We have now reached the point in the New England Patriots' Ballghazi scandal where Patriots fans can start claiming that the team didn't do anything that every other team in the NFL isn't also doing. ...
Not Even Hockey Is Safe For Packers Fans Right Now
I absolutely love this. When your own team sucks—as the Vikings do—sports, in their infinite wisdom, offer you a consolation prize: exulting in the tears of your enemies. St. Paul native Ryan Rhody had seats behind the Wild's bench for last night's game, and so knew he'd end up on TV multiple times....
Packers Loss Sends Small Child Into Devastated Weeping Frenzy
Little man is legitimately upset here (and maybe a little sleepy), and with good reason. Green Bay's swift collapse yesterday was probably his first crushing sports loss, and he got a nice jersey on for the game and everything. His mom tries comforting him with a "we got next year," but next year ...
Eddie Lacy's Mom Sent Him Some Nice Texts Yesterday
The Packers running back (and native of Gretna, La.) got a pep talk from Moms ahead of the NFC Championship—and nothing but love after the brutal loss:...
Fight Over Packers-Seahawks Features A Lot Of People Just Falling Down
We're not exactly sure what started this sloppy parking-lot brawl, or who is even on what side, but the person who uploaded this video to YouTube claims it all started over the Packers-Seahawks game....
Seahawks Tweet, Delete MLK Quote With Photo Of Crying Russell Wilson
Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had tears streaming down his face after Seattle beat the Packers in overtime. He was crying as the team huddled up for the postgame prayer circle, and he was still crying through his postgame interview. Wilson was understandably emotional over the team's miraculou...
This Is How Close The Seahawks Came To Never Even Starting A Comeback
At The MMQB, Robert Klemko has a fascinating breakdown of the Seahawks' fake field goal that got them on the board and set the stage for their historic comeback. And it's incredible just how specific a scenario the Seahawks required to even give the green light for punter Jon Ryan to loft that tou...
Brandon Bostick Wasn't Supposed To Try To Catch That Onside Kick
On the other side of the Seahawks’ disbelieving delirium is, necessarily, a whole lot of Packers feeling individually shitty about something they did, or failed to do, any one of which might have been enough to ice this game for good. Settling for a pair of field goals from the 1-yard line comes to ...
