Blame the Wildcat: Favre Is a Wide Receiver and Fisher Is Skydiving...And McNabb Is Benched
Brett Favre learned everything he knows about playing wide receiver from an instructional book written in an obsolete vernacular. And for some reason Jeff Fisher decided to make his arrival at Friday's practice via parachute. Both teams have added field goals since we last checked in, making the sco...

Vince Young's Got A Gun: Searching For Answers To The Quarterback's Bizarre Unraveling
Plainly this won't be the last bit of news to trickle out about Vince Young's meltdown, but it's probably the last bit of news to explain the post-midnight visit with Coach Fisher.

This Vince Young Melt Down Is Getting Uglier...and Scary
It's beginning to look like Young is on the verge of a full-scale collapse.

(Which is pretty much everything else.) And this is never more disturbingly clear than when a reporter has their first (or 50th) awful...

Gamecock And Blowie, Together At Last
Of course you all know the University of South Carolina Gamecock, pictured at left. But you may not be familiar with Blowie, the mascot of the Columbia Blowfish of the Coastal Plain League (the only costumed mascot who is deadly poisonous if not properly cooked). I'm not sure of the circumstances w...

But Where's The Eli Manning Of Fishing?
"You know, Kevin's compared to Tiger Woods, Tom Brady, and you ask yourself why. How does bass fishing connect here?

Swim, You Brave, Magnificent Bastards! Swim!
OK, I can hear you complaining already. But the fact remains that I have lived most of my adult life by one simple rule: Anytime a game fish reenacts a scene from one of my favorite movies, it gets its own post. The movie is Shawshank Redemption, and this is one of those times....
