Reports: RGIII Could Be Benched As Early As Today
At first glance, this is just the dumbest piece of news:...
Jameis Winston Wouldn't Take "No" For An Answer From That Official
In the third quarter of Florida State's 20-17 win over Boston College, Jameis Winston attempted, twice, to physically wrest an official out of the way so he could run a play. It was a weird moment, and per the letter of the law, Winston should have been ejected. But what the hell was actually happen...
"We Want Colt! We Want Colt!": Your Guide To Ignoring The NFL Today
In a recent Washington Post poll, 65 percent of respondents predicted that someone not named Robert Griffin III will be Washington's starting quarterback in 2015. What's awful about that is not the majority, but the probability that they're right....
Florida State Keeps Ruining Florida State Losses
I'm starting to think Florida State is just trolling all of us and will get into the playoffs and destroy everybody, 63-0. They have to be doing this on purpose....
Bethune-Cookman Wins Florida Classic With Gutsy Two-Point Conversion
Bethune-Cookman has been playing Florida A & M for nearly a century, and has come out on the wrong end of the scoreline far more often than they've won what's now known as the Florida Classic. (The worst? A 97-0 beatdown in 1960.) Things weren't looking too hot for them today, either, as the Rattler...
Jameis Winston Somehow Got Away With Shoving An Official
I guess he said "sorry"?...
Yeah, That's Targeting
Matthew Thomas will miss the first half of next week's game against Florida thanks to this....
DeAndre Hopkins' Favorite 4th-Grade Memory? Eating Pudding In Class
The pictures in this post come to us from a tipster, whose fiancée went to elementary school in Clemson, South Carolina with Houston Texans wideout DeAndre Hopkins. Like many kids, Hopkins aspired to be a professional athlete. Unlike most kids, he actually made it....
Jonas Gray Gets Belichicked
Even though Jonas Gray had the best game of his short career last Sunday, Bill Belichick didn't let it slide when the running back was late to practice today. Gray says he was late because his phone died, so his alarm didn't go off, but Belichick's hardass rules bend for no one. The team held Gray o...
Bills Tell Fans To Call Domestic-Violence Hotline For Ticket Refunds
With Jets-Bill being moved to Monday in Detroit, snowbound Buffalo-area fans are naturally concerned about getting their refunds. The Bills put up a post on their website listing their options, and told fans to call a number with any questions. It was not the right number. ...
Mike Evans Is Too Big, Too Fast, And Too Physical For Defenses To Stop
You should ignore the two-win Buccaneers and their two-bit alarm-clock uniforms. The Bucs suck, and have been on the end of some of the worst beatdowns of the year. There is at least one bright spot, however: Mike Evans is putting up crazy numbers, and he's only 21....
<em>Total Recall</em> Was Fucking Awesome
During the first scene of the original 1990 Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzenegger's head explodes. It's just a dream sequence, and the camera cuts away before his face actually pops open. But the fact remains: One of the biggest summer blockbusters of its era opens by forcing you to contemplate the mo...
The Raiders Win And The NFL Circle Of Parity Is Complete
It had been more than a full calendar year since the Raiders last won a game (those salad days of Matt McGloin and Rashad Jennings) but there was joy in the rain yesterday, a stirring 24-20 win over the rival Chiefs. Maybe a 1-10 record doesn't seem like much to you, but there may not be many nights...
The Raiders Create A New Definition Of "Excessive Celebration"
The Raiders finally won a game Thursday night, but they wouldn't be the Raiders if it didn't come with a boneheaded, self-inflicted wound. Facing 3rd and 6 from the Oakland 45 with less than a minute left, Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith was sacked by Raiders linebacker Sio Moore. It was a pretty go...
Adrian Peterson Gives 90-Minute Interview, Doesn't Say Much
Adrian Peterson has finally broken a two month silence. After he was placed on the exempt/commissioner's permission list on September 17th, he's basically only communicated through bizzaro twitter postings and closed-door hearings. Tonight he spoke with USA Today's Pelissero tonight for a "more than...
The Buffalo Bills Will Host The Jets At "Home"...In Detroit On Monday
Where will the Jets-Bills game be played, and when, you ask? Finally we have a definitive answer: 7:00 p.m. ET Monday night, at Ford Field in Detroit. The NFL announced earlier today that Sunday's game would be moved from Buffalo, as Western New York will be busy digging itself out from under snow f...

Looks Like Sunday's Bills Game Will Be Moved [Update: Yep]
It's still snowing in Western New York. (What the fuck, snow.) The Bills remain scheduled to play the Jets, but people are dying and trapped and stranded and there's probably no real reason 70,000 people should be on the road at the same time on Sunday. It's sounding like sanity is beginning to prev...
