We'll Never See A Career Like Shula's Again In The NFL
I had to be reminded that Don Shula coached the Baltimore Colts once upon a time. It started before the Super Bowl era. And his most-known accomplishment there was losing to Joe Namath’s side-burned and overrated ass. And really, Shula’s legacy will be that he was “there.” Much like a baseball seaso...
Imagine An Entire Super Bowl Crowd Dying. Jared Kushner Calls That 'A Great Success'
It’s easy to make jokes at Jared Kushner’s expense, and he truly deserves every last bit of mockery he gets.

The New NFL Playoff System Looks More Fair, But Is It?
As under the radar as the NFL can be (so not much at all), the owners voted to approve an expansion of the playoffs yesterday from 12 to 14 teams. The reasons for this are obvious to everyone.

ESPN Cancels Bowl Game Sponsorship Deal With Company That Does Not Seem To Exist
We can all agree that there are simply too many damn bowl games, and that a huge chunk of them only exist so that sports networks can bilk a few hundred thousand dollars out of a presenting sponsor while subjecting us all to the CarsAndCarParts.com New Jersey Turnpike Bowl, or whatever. And so it is...

Mike Vrabel Says He Would Gladly Chop Off His Own Dick To Win The Super Bowl

The FCC received 94 complaints regarding last month’s CBS...

Look Who's Back!
The only thing that really matters about a catchphrase is that it gets said. The repetition is the meaning. Of course, by definition, We’re Back every time a new Deadcast arrives online.
