Apparently, ESPN's Monday Night Football broadcast runs some Twitter contest that amounts to "What player is Jon Gruden thinking of right now?" Last night, Gruden was thinking of San Francisco's NaVorro Bowman, which user @DanShedd correctly guessed. The MNF crew congratulated Dan on Twitter, told h...

Your Monday Night Football Open Thread
Chicago at San Francisco: So, this might have been a decent game but neither starting quarterback will be playing due to concussions. Instead it's Jason Campbell and Colin Kaepernick. Yikes.

Michael Irvin Brought Out The PDA For Bills Running Back C.J. Spiller
The noisefest that is the Thursday Night Football post-game show on NFL Network usually proceeds like an unfunny version of TNT's Inside The NBA: full of wackiness, but lacking the charm or anything memorable. You can usually rely on Michael Irvin to do something out of the ordinary, though, and he...

Brian Urlacher Congratulates The Texans On Picking Off Jay Cutler: Sunday Night Football, In One GIF
Houston 13, Chicago 6: It was wet and miserable tonight at Soldier Field, and the score reflected it.

"Bring Hockey Back": Your Roundup Of The Best Signs Behind The College Gameday Crew
An abridged Gameday sign roundup today, because the Gameday crew was on a boat—what, you can't honor veterans on land?—and there were, as far we could tell, very few college students there with rooting interests. Which made for some weird Gameday signs!...

A Thursday Blowout Offered The Quintessential Jaguars Gif
Another underwhelming Thursday Night Football matchup on paper, Indianapolis-Jacksonville had its saving grace: it was, somehow, the first and only national game this year for Andrew Luck and the frisky Colts. They didn't disappoint, having their way with the Jaguars. Which is all well and good for ...

Other Than That, How Was The Movie? <em>Lincoln</em>, Reviewed.
1.
