Denver Airport Has Flights To Peyton Manning's "Omaha!"
Denver International Airport has gone Omaha crazy just like the Manning boys. To celebrate and support the Broncos as they make their bid for the Super Bowl this weekend, flights from Denver aren't just going to Omaha, they're taking a cue from Peyton and going to "Omaha!"...
Martin Brodeur Blames The Ice For His Being Old And Bad
Martin Brodeur called the makeshift rink at Yankee Stadium "the worst ice I ever played hockey on," and given a 21-year career, that's saying something. No other player on either team had such harsh words for the ice, but, then, no other player got yanked after giving up six goals in two periods....
Markel Brown Makes Steal, Unleashes 360 Dunk On West Virginia
We featured Oklahoma State's Markel Brown in these parts a week ago, but here's a more positive highlight. Here's the senior Cowboys wing man executing the turnover on West Virginia today in Stillwater and then bringing a Gallagher-Iba Arena crowd to its feet with a 360 dunk to top it off....
Colorado Viewers Miss Six Minutes Of AFC Title Game, Learn About Santa
Somehow this flew under the radar all week, but it turns out Broncos fans in Colorado Springs missed much of the first quarter during Sunday's AFC Championship game due to technical difficulties on KKTV—during which Tom Brady was frozen on their screens for nearly six minutes. Even stranger, the CBS...
The Browns' Coaching Search Has Reached DEFCON Schiano
The Cleveland Browns 2014 Coaching Search of Sadness (sponsored by Pilot Flying J) appears to be entering its final days, with a pair of surprise entrants: one guy who had previously taken his name out of the running, and another that many assumed would never coach in this league again....
The West Is OKC's Until Kevin Durant Says Otherwise
In the four weeks since Russell Westbrook's arthroscopic surgery, the Oklahoma City Thunder has fallen from 23-5 (.821) to 33-10 (.767) — that is, the team has racked up half its losses during just 15 games. Westbrook's major stats this season (21.4 points, 6.0 boards, 7.0 assists, 1.8 steals) all t...
The Browns' Coaching Search Just Got Sadder And More Desperate
The Browns remain the only NFL team without a head coach. (And the assistants, concerned the front office has no plan, are jumping ship.) Owner Jimmy Haslam told fans to chill out, that this was the plan all along, that the Browns were prepared to wait until all the coaches left in the postseason we...
What It's Like To Skydive Into The AFC Championship
Here's unedited helmet-cam video from one of the Denver Broncos Thunderstorm parachute team from their jump into Mile High before Sunday's game. The best parts are freefall, starting at 1:15, and the (incredibly rapid) descent into the stadium itself, beginning at 3:15. ...
The Browns Have Essentially No Coaching Staff Right Now
It was stupid when Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski was booted after only one season, but Cleveland's situation is getting dumber. The front office still hasn't found a replacement while other rebuilding teams, like the Texans, Skins, and Vikings, have hired new coaches. And now, while the Browns ha...
How Davone Bess Fell Through The Cracks
Davone Bess's offseason has gone from funny to frightening. One day, he's tweeting photos of weed. The next, he's having what can only be described as a mental breakdown at the airport. It soon emerged that Bess had another breakdown in March, a month before Miami traded him to Cleveland. The all-im...
Skiing Through Colored Snow Produces Some Stunning Visuals
Ski videos can get tiresome—we've all seen plenty of slo-mo clips of bros shredding through powder while concussive house music plays over the footage—but brothers Nicolas and Loras Falquet have found a way to add a new wrinkle to the genre. ...
Bill Belichick: Wes Welker Intentionally Took Out Aqib Talib
New England’s top cornerback was removed from the equation early in the second quarter, when, sticking to Demaryius Thomas on a crossing route, he was hit low by Broncos WR Wes Welker and left with a knee injury. Belichick was his usual circumspect self after the game: “That was a key play in the ga...
Punter Happy

Peyton Manning And His Touchdown Factory Are In The Super Bowl
It didn't matter how many times Peyton Manning yelled "Omaha" today, whatever it meant. The Denver offense worked the hell out of the Patriots in a 26-16 win, and Manning will have his third chance at a Super Bowl ring....

The offer's out there for anyone interested. Dr. Steven Broman of Fort Collins, Colo. is bringing back barter: Give him tickets to the AFC Championship Game, and receive a vasectomy in return....
