The Dolphins Have Spent An Offseason Humiliating Themselves
Believe me when I tell you that I say this with zero malice: the Dolphins are a pathetic franchise at the moment. It's not so much that two weeks ago they were certain they were going to have Peyton Manning throwing to Brandon Marshall and Reggie Wayne, and now they may have to content themselves wi...
Matt Flynn Signs With The Seattle Seahawks, Dolphins Running Out Of Options
According to Adam Schefter, Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Matt Flynn has agreed to terms with the Seahawks on a three year, $26 million contract. Schefter reports up to $10 million will be guaranteed....
Peyton Manning Watch: Decisions, Decisions, Decisions
Lost in all the madness of the tournament this weekend (it was lost to me, anyway) is that Peyton Manning is whittling his options down and my sources tell me he has it down to three teams: the Tennessee Titans, the Denver Broncos and the San Francisco 49ers....
Today It Was Florida State That Avoided An Upset Thanks To The Refs
Another day, another blown call that changed a game's outcome in Nashville as third-seeded Florida State escaped with a win over St. Bonaventure due to referees missing this violation (hint: when inbounding the ball you have to stay out of bounds) that would have handed the Bonnies the ball under ...
The Jets Have Decided To Push Mark Sanchez By Signing... Drew Stanton?
Remember back in January when an anonymous Jet said of Mark Sanchez, "We have to bring in another quarterback that will make him work at practice. He's lazy and content because he knows he's not going to be benched," and all Jets fans (and management) nodded and agreed that finding such a quarterbac...

Jawanza Poland's Play-In Game Tip Slam Was Final Four Quality
Jawanza Poland's USF team is making as much a case to warrant their inclusion in the NCAA tournament as they are for the committee being completely out of their minds when offering a bid to Cal. It's been a thorough thrashing all game, and there's no better example of USF's dominance than Poland'...

Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall Accused Of Punching A Woman In Club FIght
It was reasonable to assume that the Dolphins parted with Brandon Marshall, for a discount price, to make Peyton Manning happy. It's the same sort of roster-baiting the Titans are engaging in with their very public courtship of guard Steve Hutchison. But things can have, like, more than one reason, ...
Dolphins Trade Brandon Marshall To Chicago Because Of Peyton Manning
Why would the Dolphins trade their best receiver to the Bears just two years after executing a deal to get him in the first place? Easy: To get Peyton Manning. Or so goes the theory of those who believe Manning had qualms about playing with Brandon Marshall, who is known to be ornery despite his obv...

In The Name Of Competitive Balance, The NFL Plays The Bully And The Tyrant
The NFL is a dictatorship masquerading as a benevolent dictatorship. In redistributing $46 million in salary cap space from the Redskins and Cowboys to the rest of the league, the NFL is enforcing laws that don't exist, playing Robin Hood with blackmail, and generally continuing a tradition of arbit...
Tampa Radio Host Hopes The Buccaneers Sign "Those Three Monkeys" In Free Agency [UPDATES]
Dan Sileo's your standard issue jock-turned-shock-jock, currently plying his trade at WDAE ("The Sports Animal") in Tampa. A former U of Miami lineman who had a brief stint in the pros, he got into a bit of trouble for exaggerating the length and importance of his NFL career....
Mitt Romney Explains Super Bowl 46 In The Stiffest Way Imaginable
Mitt appeared on our friend Paul Finebaum's show today and talked football like an average American! To wit: "This last Super Bowl was a hard one to take. A catch in the final moments, which was a spectacular catch, dashed our hopes once again." See, definitely not a robot! [NYT]...
Sterling Moore Makes A Funny, Scares Crap Out Of Agent
Sterling Moore is a cornerback for the New England Patriots, and as it is the offseason, Sterling Moore went to Las Vegas. Sterling Moore had a fun time in Vegas, as athletes and non-athletes often do. Perhaps there was gambling, maybe women or alcohol, or even Cirque Du Soleil. Whatever his recreat...
Packers TE Tom Crabtree Plays Dodgeball With Little Kids, Basically Tells Them To Suck Failure
That's Crabtree paying a recent visit to the seventh and eighth graders from St. Paul Lutheran School in Green Bay. I have no idea why a backup NFL tight end is making dodgeball videos with sound effects, but that's beside the point. Watch as Crabtree sends one of these youngsters to Ouchtown at th...
