Your Monday Night Football Open Thread
Detroit Lions at Chicago Bears (ESPN): The Bears are coming off an inconveniently scheduled bye week this year.

Even Mack Brown Hates The Longhorn Network
Fourteen months in, how's the Longhorn Network doing? The University of Texas's 20-year, $300 million partnership with ESPN nearly destroyed the Big 12 before it even launched, and while it is helping UT make up for state-funding shortfalls in academic departments, it still has a rather sizable dist...
This Florida Fan's Spooky Stare During Saturday's Game Might Be The Scariest Thing You See This Halloween Season

The Steelers Faked An Injury To Stop The Clock
Midway through the fourth, with the Steelers up a score and on the edge of field goal range, Ben Roethlisberger was sacked. He was banged up, and slow getting back to the huddle, and the Steelers found themselves with a choice—burn a timeout, or take a delay of game penalty. WR Emmanuel Sanders to...
Five Pee-Wee Football Players Suffered Concussions In A 52-0 Loss
It is not as absurd a question as it would have been, say, 10 years ago: Would you want your kid playing football? You can point to the safety advances, and the increased awareness, and the character-building spiel—and then you can point to a Pop Warner football game in Massachusetts last month, in ...

We linked to it earlier, but now we have the details, courtesy of the full report on Fox Sports and from the AP:...
The Jets, To The Patriots: "Hang On A Minute"
The Patriots' hurry-up offense is quick—too quick, according to the Jets. They point to a crucial moment in the Patriots win over the Broncos two weeks ago in which the Patriots had sped up their offense so much between snaps that the Broncos didn't have time to make substitutions. That's not fair: ...
Your NFL Sunday Open Thread
The lights are low, the shades are drawn, we're eating sriracha-based chili: let's watch some football.

Florida Gators Coach Will Muschamp Can't Control The VOLUME OF HIS VOICE
The Florida Gators put a beating on South Carolina yesterday in what many expected to be the marquee match-up of the day. At halftime, the Gators were up 21-6, so local radio might reasonably have expected a positive and mellow interview from a pleasantly surprised Florida coach....
Tennessee Fan Is Latest To Take Advantage Of Live TV Camera And Pantomime Blowjobs
After we had our fun with the jackass who made blowjob pantomimes behind home plate of a Cubs game, we figured the days of televised fake fellatio were over. Not so, as we learned at Neyland Stadium tonight, as one young Vols fan had enough of ESPN's camera and decided to take matters into his ow...
Fan Runs Onto Field In The Middle Of Live Play During Florida State-Miami Game
Idiots On The Field tend to perform their antics during breaks in play; that's why security guards ring the baselines in between innings of baseball games, et cetera. Tonight's Idiot in Miami took things to a whole new level, though, rushing onto the field during a play in the first quarter of Fl...
Texas Tech And TCU Combine For 37 Points After The End Of The Fourth Quarter, But Texas Tech Comes Out Ahead
Texas Tech and TCU combined to score 109 points in an incredible game that took a solid four hours and saw a hundred or so lead changes.

There's No Cheering In The Pressbox, So ESPN's Lee Corso Went Down To The Sidelines
Lee Corso's College GameDay schtick has for decades been his end-of-show prognostication of the day's feature game—usually involving his favored team's mascot. (Today he picked the hometown Gators to beat South Carolina, and even brought a baby alligator to the set.) But we mostly assumed his inte...
Texas A&M's Six Laterals With No Time Left Couldn't Beat LSU
Not often that an SEC tilt will give you flashbacks to a Div. III game from five years ago. But today the No. 20 Aggies started slinging laterals every which way but forward while down five and out of time against No. 6 LSU, almost raising the ghosts of Trinity vs. Millsaps....
