NFL GMs Want To Know If Manti Te'o Is Gay
The NFL scouting combine is an utterly useless event that exists for the sole purpose of maintaining the league's grip on the consciousness of the American sports fan as far into the offseason as possible.

Tim Tebow Gives Us Our First Total QBR Kerfuffle
I've been pleasantly surprised with my lack of exposure to Total Quarterback Rating, ESPN's proprietary formula for measuring QB that's supposed to be more accurate, or at least more complete, than passer rating.

Lil Wayne And Todd Haley Constitute Football's Newest And Maybe Worst Bromance
