Jason Babin Was Cleared For An MRI Because He Finally Took A Shit

Jason Babin Argues Against Gun Control By Citing Made-Up Hitler Quote

This Eagles/Angry Birds Thing Is Weird
It must have been written into the Eagles' contract with the Angry Birds video game empire that cartoon Andy Reid cannot be fat.

Jason Babin Is Spending His Offseason Messing With Giant, Angry Mammals
