Everything About This Breitbart Interview With Sean Spicer Is Nuts

Mike Tirico Just Took The Reins From Bob Costas

Let Us Now Praise The Patriots' Super Bowl Defense
Much of the blame for the Falcons’ monumental choke job in Super Bowl 51 fell on Kyle Shanahan for his aggressive play-calling, and that’s fair. It’s screamingly obvious Atlanta should have run the ball more or milked the clock to keep Tom Brady and the Patriots from even having a chance to storm al...
Mic'd-Up Julian Edelman Argued With Falcons Defender Over Whether He Caught That Ball

Austrian TV's Super Bowl Highlight Reel Is Much Better Than Anything Fox Produced
Super Bowl LI was an incredible game that featured a historic comeback and two of the greatest catches in Super Bowl history. But you might not get a sense of how bonkers the Patriots’ unholy comeback was from watching the limp highlight reel that FOX played at the end of the game. If you want the g...
Michael Floyd Overcomes DUI Arrest To Become A Super Bowl Champion
There are many different paths a player can take to get to a Super Bowl victory. Some, like Malcolm Butler and Tom Brady, start out as unknowns but turn into essential components. Others, such as Dont’a Hightower and Devin McCourty, come with expectations around them, which they fulfill. Michael Flo...
Gronk Goes Shirtless At Parade, Chugs Beers, Laughs At The Number 69
Rob Gronkowski, who gained his powers after he was accidentally left behind during a government test of a nuclear sacktap, missed the Patriots’ Super Bowl run with a back injury, but he was in attendance for the championship parade in Boston today. The tight end played his greatest hits....
Bill Belichick Is Fired Up About Labor
The Patriots’ Super Bowl parade is today, and head coach Bill Belichick attempted to fire up the crowd with a spirited chant. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to receive a pep talk about the virtues of year-round work from a Google Home, you now have your answer:...
Bruins Fire Claude Julien And Will Probably Regret It
The oldest trick in the book...the Tuesday morning news dump? The Bruins announced the firing of head coach Claude Julien shortly after sunrise, and while the move isn’t exactly unexpected (whether it’s wise is an entirely different question), the timing is suspect. Boston hasn’t played a game since...

Julio Jones Did What He Could
Julian Edelman made a ludicrous catch last night, going to the ground to keep the ball while being tackled by three Falcons defenders, but he wasn’t the only receiver on the field making impossible catches when his team needed them most....

Gisele Was The Only Good Fan
Think back to last night’s broadcast: Did you see many crowd shots that didn’t focus on celebrities? Did you see any? You did not, and you never do at the Super Bowl, because the NFL allocates the vast majority of tickets to corporate sponsors. There just aren’t that many actual fans of either team ...
Someone Seems To Have Stolen Tom Brady's Super Bowl Jersey
