Should Belichick Be Punished For His Limp Shove?
As far as we can tell, Michael David Smith of The Fanhouse was the first to make an issue out of this — we even laughed it off ourselves — but a couple days later, more people are asking: Shouldn't we be a little more pissed at Patriots coach bill Belichick for just shoving that cameraman out of the...
Don't You Forget About Ron Zook
The Florida Gators might have overcome a few years of questionable coaching decisions, rugby-style kicks, random substitutions and BALLS OUT INTENSITY to win a national championship ... but rest assured, Ron Zook shall return triumphant! The Zooker's improving! And comin' atcha!...
We Can't Imagine What He Thought She Did Wrong

"Disaster! Buckeyes Eaten By Gators!"
Well, boy howdy, that was kind of definitive, wasn't it?...
It's The Mythical Sort Of Kinda A Little Bit Of A National Title Game
Well, jeez, it's finally time: The endless math problem that is the college football season at last ends tonight, in the Tostitos BCS Championship Game between the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Florida Gators. This one doesn't quite have the gravitas or star power of last year's title game, and if Ohi...
Just Pray These Aren't Already Sold Out
Good news! The new Jesus sports statues are in, still piping hot from the kiln and ready for shipping over at Catholic Shopper.com. But unlike in previous versions in which He was smack dab in the action, Our Lord and Savior seems content to kibitz from the sidelines this time, refusing to get direc...
Ah, To Be Young And Tony Romo
Another reason YouTube is changing our lives in new and exciting ways: The already infamous Tony Romo fumble moment from Saturday night is being reenacted by spasming lonely fools in their bedrooms. You're totally wrong, Cuban: YouTube is Allah's gift to us all!...
Many People Taking Photos Of Two Men Hugging
We find it difficult to become too worked up about coaching rivalries. It reminds us of Neal Pollack's excellent Slate piece about the "cult of the general manager;" all told, if there's a genuine blood feud going on, we'd prefer it to involve people who actually play. They can hit each other, after...
Now They Just Need Marky Mark To Play Linebacker
As Garcia Mania continues to sweep the greater Philadelphia area — if just because "Westbrook Mania" doesn't have the same indelible linguistic flow — we point out to you the spoils of quarterbacking an NFL team that is the company in a company town: Incredibly awkward local television commercials! ...
Giants vs. Eagles, 4th Quarter
- 3rd and 2 for the Giants from the Eagles 6, and Eli Manning just can't make anything happen. He fails to see a wide open Plax in the back of the endzone, and ends up throwing it away, which, I suppose, is all you could expect from Eli Manning. They settle for the field goal, and it's 20-13 Eagles ...
Giants vs. Eagles, 3rd Quarter
- The Eagles are getting the ball here to start the second half. And if they score here, it would force Eli Manning into a lot of passing situations, which would be fantastic for people who hate Eli Manning....
Giants vs. Eagles, 2nd Quarter
- The Giants are on pace for over 400 yards......
Giants vs. Eagles, 1st Quarter
- Alright, here we go. I'm expecting this Eagles/Giants game to be more eventful and more... disastrous. NFC East games tend to veer towards the absurd. This will not be a quality football game, but it will probably be fun....
Jets vs. Patriots: 4th Quarter
- We're about to start the 4th with the Jets down 10. It could still happen for them, but they need to get something going quickly. Come on, Chad, let's make this one close....
Jets vs. Patriots: 3rd Quarter
- The third quarter's just gotten underway. Shawne Merriman was interviewed by satellite at halftime, and he was either wearing a tank top, a unitard, or a pair of suspenders with no shirt. It's an unusual look, and not one that many people can pull off. Shawne Merriman included....
Sex Shows With A Playoff Level Of Intensity
Craigslist.org is one of the most essential sites on the web during the NFL Playoffs. I remember last year, a young woman in Pittsburgh was looking for someone to dress up like Ben Roethlisberger and have sex with her. This year, for a couple of Eagles tickets, a couple of young female grad studen...
Jets vs. Patriots: 2nd Quarter
- 7-3 Patriots here... and I'm enjoying the Jim Mora Coors Light commercial for about the sixth time this weekend. This one's not getting old. Jim Mora is the anti-Mellencamp....
Jets vs. Patriots: 1st Quarter
- Hello... welcome back to another day of hot, nasty, NFL action. The Jets and Colts are a few minutes from kicking off. I don't know if I'm going to watch, though. Sundays are for bowling....
Cowboys vs. Seahawks: 4th Quarter
- The Cowboys are opening the quarter with a punt here. They're up by four with 15:00 to play. I would really love to see an exciting finish here. After that early game, frankly, I think we all deserve it....
