Roger Goodell: No, It's The Fans Who Are Idiots <em></em>
Roger Goodell is not having a great week. He’s off in the U.K. promoting the NFL’s sub-par football product by way of a team whose kicker was revealed this week to have written “I abused my wife” in journal entries from 2013....

Josh Brown Placed On Commissioner's Exempt List [Updates]
The NFL is suddenly very concerned about Giants kicker Josh Brown, now that the sheriff’s office in King County, Wash. has released documents in which Brown described in his own words how he abused his wife, Molly. The league was less concerned a month ago, when it suspended Brown one game despite t...
The NFL's Private Spooks Made Molly Brown So Nervous She Told Deputies About It
Molly Brown reached out to the King County (Wash.)

At the time, Molly Brown already was talking to ...
Roger Goodell's Former Babysitter Says He Was A "Sour Child"
Would you believe that as a kid, Roger Goodell sulked and barely showed any signs of happiness? Janet Derby, his former babysitter who now lives in Sudbury, Mass., made that claim....
The NFL Always Had Access To The Josh Brown Documents<em></em>
Even before yesterday’s release of documents by the sheriff’s office in King County, Wash. in which New York Giants kicker Josh Brown admits in his own words that he abused his then-wife Molly, there was very similar evidence in his divorce file—a publicly available document that anyone could get. A...
Odell Beckham Jr. Scores 75-Yard Touchdown, Performs Elaborate Touchdown Celebration
Odell Beckham Jr. has had an underwhelming start to the season and has been in a funk because of it, but the Giants receiver looked like his happy old self today after burning the Ravens for a 75-yard touchdown. He made the most out of his celebration....
Michael And Martellus Bennett Are Still Talking Outrageous Shit About, Well, Everyone
Nobody in the NFL gives nearly as good a quote as Michael and Martellus Bennett do. The brothers welcomed fans to the NFL season by dishing out burns to Eli Manning, Sam Bradford, Roger Goodell, and plenty of others. E:60 has a full profile of the brothers coming soon, and they released a minute’s w...
Odell Beckham Jr. Scores, Apologizes To Kicking Net
Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. boiled over and smacked a kicking net in Week 3 after Skins cornerback Josh Norman got under his skin. (The kicking net smacked back.) After scoring his first touchdown of the season tonight, Beckham made amends with the equipment by giving it a hug....
How Long Until The NFL's Hard-On For Personal Fouls Ruins A Game?
Even if you believe that Odell Beckham Jr.’s tendency toward emotional outbursts has rightfully earned him extra scrutiny from NFL referees, the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty he was hit with last night was pretty confounding:...
Odell Beckham Lost His Cool Again
Odell Beckham Jr. was barely there last night. The excellent Vikings defense held him to a career-low three catches for 23 yards, all on a single second-quarter drive that didn’t cross midfield. Minnesota merely perfected what’s emerged as a solid strategy to keep Beckham in check—he hasn’t scored a...
Antonio Brown Says Refs Threatened To Eject Him For Wearing Cool Shoes
Steelers receiver Antonio Brown has long been one of the few NFL players willing to thumb his nose (or butt, rather) at the NFL’s joy-killing rules against self expression. It seems like the league has finally had enough of Brown daring to have a good time while playing football, though, as he claim...
Las Vegas's Play For The Raiders Keeps Getting Shadier
With the public wising up to the con of taxpayer-financed stadiums, the group invested in moving the Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas is doing all it can to remove the public from the process. And Roger Goodell and the NFL are loving it....
Dellin Betances Chose A Bad Time To Unravel
There are few safer bets for a bullpen than Dellin Betances—which makes sense, seeing as how he strikes out more than 40 percent of the batters he faces. So when the Yankees handed Betances a 5-2 lead in the ninth inning of Thursday’s game against the Red Sox, a win seemed all but guaranteed....
The Giants Are Already Needling Josh Norman
Despite the fact that the Josh Norman-Odell Beckham Jr. matchup last season got out of hand and downright dangerous, cornerback/receiver feuds are rare and delightful, and though Washington and New York don’t play until Week 3, the Giants are doing everything they can to shade Norman and hype up the...
Roger Goodell Vs. The Refs
I want to make a revelation that I truly believe—and have believed for a long time:...

Today, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell spoke about 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s decision to kneel during the national anthem....
The Only Tool Roger Goodell Has Is A Hammer, So Everything Looks Like A Nail<em></em>
In separate interviews last week with the four players alleged to have been PED users in an Al Jazeera investigation, the NFL reportedly brought no new evidence or witnesses to the table. And that may have been the point....
Roger Goodell Should Interview James Harrison In Public
More than anything, Roger Goodell fancies himself a disciplinarian. He’s personally taken the lead in prosecuting Ballghazi, gone out of his way to make an example of marijuana users, and gone all-out at Marshawn Lynch for the crime of having fun. Of course, Goodell also helped the Patriots cover up...
