Make Pass Interference Calls Reviewable
I hate to pile on the NFL here, but when the story of the season is that fewer people are watching football, it’s worth drawing attention to one of the sport’s most irritating features: the terrible pass interference call....
NFL Owners I'd Party With, Ranked
Pro Football Talk described Colts owner Jim Irsay as a guy who “gives off a distinctly counter-culture vibe,” which is a weird thing to write but also got us thinking about which NFL owners would be the most fun to party with. Here is a list....
Old Man Rich Hill Pitched A Gem Tonight
The Chicago Cubs came into the NLCS fresh off a dominant regular season and a soul-crushing defeat of the San Francisco Giants. Since a Game 1 win, they haven’t scored a run. Clayton Kershaw shut them out in Game 2, which is understandable since he’s Clayton Kershaw, but a much more unlikely hero bl...
Titans Owner Denies That Team Will Be Sold To Jon Bon Jovi "Or Anyone Else"
Jon Bon Jovi wants to buy an NFL team. He tried to buy the Bills earlier this year, and “continues to monitor the Titans’ ownership situation closely,” according to CBS’s Jason La Canfora....
Noah Droddy Has Been Called Majestic: That's Not The Half Of It
Nobody was taking Noah Droddy’s picture, which seemed strange considering the rail-thin runner’s recent rise to relative fame has been as much about his sensational (for the track world) ill brah appearance as his fast races, and the unlikely combo of the two. ...
Todd Bowles Changes His Mind About Ryan Fitzpatrick
Last night, the Jets limped their way to a 28-3 loss to the Cardinals. Ryan Fitzpatrick started, went 16-for-31, and tossed a pick. He was replaced by a very mad Geno Smith, who ended his only drive by throwing a pick to Tyrann Mathieu. The Jets have a surplus of quarterbacks, but that doesn’t reall...
Tim Tebow's Batting Average Is Risen Today, Hallelujah<em></em>
And on the fifth day, his batting average rose again....
Vikings Defensive Coordinator Was Arrested For Drunk Driving In May
Vikings defensive coordinator George Edwards was arrested in May on suspicion of drunk driving and charged with a DWI. He pleaded guilty to careless driving in August, but the Viking did not disclose his arrest until the Twin Cities Pioneer Press reported on it this afternoon....
Trevor Bauer Considered Cauterizing His Gross Finger With A Soldering Iron
Trevor Bauer kicked off Halloween early last night when his disgusting diced up finger burst and dripped blood everywhere. He made it two outs into his start before he got yanked. According to a rather amusing (if not medically terrifying) report from Yahoo’s Jeff Passan, it could have been much wor...
Eric Decker Will Get His Shoulder Repaired As Soon As His Repaired Hip Heals<em></em><em></em>
The New York Jets placed wide receiver Eric Decker on injured reserve on Oct. 12 after he partially tore his rotator cuff in September. Decker will need surgery on his shoulder, but before he undergoes that procedure, he needs to repair his hip....
Everyone Terrified
When people who manage lots of money are feeling confident, they invest that money. When they feel scared, uncertain, and pessimistic, they just hold onto cash, waiting fearfully for disaster to strike. How are they feeling now? ...

Bill Belichick Is Sick Of Those Stupid Microsoft Tablets [Update]
Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, who has never been one to embrace technology, has had it with Microsoft Surface tablets on NFL sidelines. He went on a surprisingly long-winded rant about the devices in today’s presser, where he essentially said that the tablets suck ass and he’s not using them ...
The Texas Rangers' Ballpark Scam Is Even Worse Than We Thought
Back in June, WFAA-TV took a close look at the Texas Rangers’ proposal to build a new stadium in Arlington, which the city and team insist would be built with a 50-50 split of private and public money. WFAA-TV discovered an unprecedented clause in the proposal that proved the 50-50 promise to be hor...

It was reported yesterday that the NFL will be reviewing the low hit Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict put on Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett during Sunday’s game, and today brings news that the league is looking at another incident involving Burfict from that very same game....
Sean McDonough Didn't Want To Watch That Shit, Either
A bad football game happened last night. The Cardinals beat the Jets 28-3 in a game that saw 23 penalty flags thrown onto the field. There were 13 penalties in the first half alone, and by the third quarter play-by-play man Sean McDonough was fed up:...
Cleveland Didn't Even Need A Starter Last Night<em></em>
Losing your starting pitcher two outs into a playoff game is supposed to be a nightmare for any manager, but all it meant for Terry Francona last night was that he got to put the game into the hands of a bullpen that has yet to fail him....
After 3 Days, Jesus Rose From The Dead. After 4 Days, Tim Tebow Is 0-12 In The Arizona Fall League<em></em>
Blessed are the merciful, such as Tim Tebow, who is showing mercy to any and all baseballs he could hit in the Arizona Fall League....
WWE Announcer Falsely Claims Goldberg Was The Greatest-Ever WCW Champion
