Australia's Rugby League Cracks Down On Big Hits, And Fans Aren't Happy

Whatever You Do, Don't Watch Thursday Night Football Tomorrow
This-the first year in which the NFL (and its subsidiary network, the NFL Network) has "graciously" "offered" us a full year of Thursday Night Football-has been a strange year for Thursday Night Football. Namely: the games were good matchups. Let's recall them quickly:...
Randy McMichael Is The NFL's Most Impatient Player

If Ever A Moment Called For Facepalm, It's Philip Rivers Last Night
How do you blow a 24-0 halftime lead? Account for six turnovers, as Philip Rivers did last night in guiding the Chargers to a 35-24 final score, and you might just do it.
