Eli Manning's House Is Fully Automated; Kind Of Lame
Just say the words "New Jersey condo" and the thought immediately comes to mind; nothing was available in Manhattan? Hey, Eli Manning is quite happy with his new crib, and that's because he barely has to raise a finger when he's there; it's practically all automated. Here we see him in his den where...
John Lackey Will Reverse Earth's Orbit And Keep Replaying This Game Until Angels Win
So for those scoring at home, Boston's 3-2, walkoff victory on Monday was the third time that the Red Sox have eliminated the Angels from the division series (2004 and 2007 were the others), a fact that did not sit well with LA starter John Lackey. In fact, Lackey insisted after the game that Boston...

Reggie Bush Will Surely Bring Out His Slippery Backdoor Moves Against the Vikings This Evening
Even though tonight's game isn't the marquee match-up the MNF schedulers had hoped for in the beginning of the season, seeing Adrian Peterson do his Purple Jesus thing against a shoddy Saints defense could be entertaining. The Saints are giving three points, mostly because they're home and the Vikin...
Once Again, Philadelphia Fans Do Their Part To Keep Their Reputation for Upstanding Citizenry Intact
And then there's the other Philadelphia sports team. No, it wasn't all mirth and merriment in the 215 sports community this weekend after the Eagles surprisingly dropped a home game to the Redskins.

America's Most Shameless Fallen Hero Finally Gets the Lack of Attention He Deserves
Think about how remarkably different this O.J. trial was than the one that ultimately defined our generation. On early Saturday morning when the Las Vegas jury recited their not-so-surprising guilty verdict, you saw O.J. purse his lips, quietly accept his fate, and move on. Surprisingly, there were ...
NLCS Preview: Phillies Vs. Dodgers
I pay so much closer attention to the National League than the American League, and I got both of the NLDS dramatically wrong. To be fair, I was trying to jinx the Cubs and spite the Phillies.

The Midwest Doesn't Like Alcohol or Foreigners
Michael Bertin writes regularly about soccer for Deadspin Thanks to Jesus, I watched a total of about 35 minutes of soccer this weekend. Okay, it's partially my fault.

It's Very Hard To Be A Texans Fan Right Now
The good thing about being a quarterback in Houston is that there is virtually nothing you can do that will be bad enough to equal the worst collapse your fans have ever seen. That would have been in the 1993 playoffs, when the Bills came back from 32 points down in the second half to beat the Houst...

The Sunday Evening NFL Roundup
Those clever Dolphins with their misdirection. I know if I stare long enough Ronnie Brown is going to pop out of nowhere and run my ass into the ground.

NFL Update: Back-up Quarterbacks Get Their Shot
It was an eventful day for back-up quarterbacks as Matt Hasselbeck, Eli Manning, Damon Huard and Jon Kitna were all pulled in today's games.
