Somebody Doesn't Like Rich Eisen
Rich Eisen is a consumate professional (if occasionally flirty on the email) so we can't fathom why somebody would chuck garbage at him while doing a live shot before halftime of the miserable Thursday Night Football game in Atlanta. Kudos to Rich for keeping a straight face through it all. [NFL N...
Recalling The Time Bennie Blades Pulled A Bazooka Out Of His Car Trunk To Settle A Fight
Here's a nice, terrifying memory from Lomas Brown—the former NFL player who now says things on ESPN for money—regarding his former Detroit teammate Bennie Blades.

Revelations From Tim Tebow's Mic'd Up Sunday
If it's true that nobody actually KNOWS Tim Tebow, it's also true that we see in him whatever we want to see. That holds for his public appearances, his interviews, and his play from a bird's eye television angle. But thanks to NFL Films's Sound FX, we can get a little closer to Tim Tebow, actual ...

NFL Players Hate Cris Collinsworth, Too
Sports Illustrated asked 237 NFL players to name their least favorite commentator. Collinsworth was No. 1, but the list consists almost entirely of ESPN and NBC guys, which makes sense—most players are spared the others since they're all at work on Sunday afternoons. The current players are especial...

FOX in Boston did a spot with Julian Edelman and Zoltan Mesko at the Patriots' annual charity event.
