Dwight Howard Wanted No Piece Of Gerald Henderson's Absurd Dunk
As one savvy observer pointed out, you actually have to be in the frame in order to be posterized, but Dwight Howard is so disinterested in being a part of the play that Gerald Henderson has a relatively easy time throwing down one of the dunks of the year, one that has clear shades of Griffin-on-...

It's been more than two decades since the Rutgers men's basketball team made the NCAA tournament, and it seems like every coach that has been paraded through Piscataway, N.J. during that time has had a complete and total meltdown. Today's edition? Coach Mike Rice decided to whip some basketballs at ...
Here Is Chad Henne Cuddling In A Pajama Onesie
We have written, um, at some length, about why Chad Henne ought to have a starting job in the NFL. Now he does, although it took a season-ending injury to Blaine Gabbert and a 1-9 record for him to get it....

Lache Seastrunk Puts Team On His Back, Scores 76-Yard TD Run Despite Suffering Leg Injury Mid-Play
Baylor running back Lache Seastrunk has been a one-man Motorin' machine this season, and nothing demonstrates his tenacity and rushing ability more than this long touchdown run today against Oklahoma State, two-thirds of which appear to have been completed after Seastrunk injured his leg. (Darren ...
The Child Porn Charges Against Minnesota State Football Coach Todd Hoffner Have Been Dismissed
The prosecution of Minnesota State football coach Todd Hoffner appeared to look like a mistake in October, when Hoffner's attorney released details of an evaluation that determined Hoffner's children were neither abused nor maltreated, and that child protective services would not even need to conduc...
College Football Coach Accidentally Gets Email About School's Plan To Replace Him
Well, this is awkward. Donald Hill-Eley has been the head football coach at Morgan State, an FCS school in Baltimore, since 2002.

If You've Ever Wanted To Hear Ed Hochuli Talk About Buttocks, Today Is Your Day
We're surprised this doesn't happen more often, and maybe it does—but hearing popular NFL referee Ed Hochuli do it has a special flair. Hochuli's description of the results of a video replay in today's Bills-Colts game required his use of the word "buttocks"—you know the workout-obsessed ref wante...
<em>Hitchcock</em>: For The Birds
Over time, great individuals can attain such a level of public adoration that any sort of criticism leveled against them is treated as sacrilege, whether they be Abe Lincoln, Mother Teresa, or a Beatle not named Ringo. Naturally, that inspires a certain kind of person to take dead aim at such sacred...
Ed Hochuli Reviewed An Un-Reviewable Play And Then Said He Did Not Review It Because It Was Un-Reviewable
Cleveland unexpectedly forced Dallas to overtime, and after an incomplete pass to Miles Austin with 8:35 left to go in the extra period Cleveland called timeout—presumably to force a replay from the booth. Cleveland thought the play was a catch, fumble and Browns recovery. Almost immediately, CBS ...

Philly Weatherman Who Got Roofied And Robbed By Latvian Escorts Allegedly Shit His Pants
John Bolaris is nothing but a former Philly weatherman with a Twitter account. His real skill has always been his ability to keep his name in the city's gossip pages by turning up at some Center City nightspot with pretty young ladies on his arm. Bolaris is now unemployed and engaged to be married a...
Last Night Reminded The World That Blaine Gabbert Is Hopeless And Chad Henne Isn't
We wondered in September why the Jaguars had refused to bench Blaine Gabbert (pictured above, on his ass)—their woeful second-year quarterback—in favor of Chad Henne, their slightly below-average (serviceable!) young veteran backup. Since then, Gabbert's play has, uh, I guess we could say picked up:...
