About Last Night
What you missed while watching your stuffed bear get really REALLY excited that Christmas is near ... • NFL: Cleveland beats Baltimore 33- ... no wait, the officials are calling the teams back to the field yet again.

Tom Brady is Mr. Sunday Night
It's been quite a day of football and I'm not sure my heart can take much more after what the Redskins just put me through. Fortunately tonight's game will be the football equivalent of a low-sodium diet. New England is walking into Buffalo having had two weeks to gameplan for a wounded opponent. T...
To Watch Tonight
What to watch while hoping all is well with Larry and the Blacks... • Mayweather/Hatton 24/7. This is the first episode of the highly anticipated four-part series. This could be the most entertaining half hour of television all week (even if the writers weren't striking). The De La Hoya/Mayweather s...
Troy Aikman Gets Something Right
I was just getting ready to throw some love on Clinton Portis myself. Costumes aside, he's an absolute beast. He's a better blocker than any featured back in the league (Edge included) and if the Redskins throw a pick, odds are Clinton's going try to send the interceptor to the hospital. Jason Campb...

New England Finally Lost (At Something)
Well it's not the Patriots, but hey, it's still fun watching the Revolution twist in the wind. For the second consecutive year the Houston Dynamo are champions of Major League Soccer at the expense of the perpetual also-rans from New England....
Peyton Apologists Scramble to Prepare For Monday
It's always a bit difficult for a quarterback to lose a favorite receiver and a couple of offensive linemen, but Peyton is making it look torturous. Even with Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark Peyton has gone 12-26 for 104 yards and an interception. If they can't find a way to put up some more points th...
Rich People Helping Rich People
At some point Alex Rodriguez, the richest man in baseball in the world, struck up a friendship with the third richest person in the world, Warren Buffett. Well now A-Rod is going to the Oracle of Omaha for advice on his baseball career....
Carson Palmer Goes Long
Nobody in their right mind actually cares about the outcome of the Bengals/Cardinals contest (Will and Bengal fans are clearly insane), but the fantasy playoffs are right around the corner! Carson Palmer is doing his best to spread the points around. He's thrown touchdown passes to TJ Housh and Ariz...
Where's Your Purple Jesus Now?
Let's all give it up to Texas Tech for effectively eliminating Oklahoma from National Championship contention. The Sooner's became the latest top five team to get slapped around by an unranked opponent (the 11th time it's happened this season. The Red Raiders got things going in their direction earl...
That's Just Naaasty
Yep, you can really buy Alex Rodriguez's nut huggers on eBay. Maybe Bobby Bowden was right about this whole operation....

Fight! Fight! Fight!
• Catching up on Cotto vs. Mosley. Wow, that fight was actually better than I was led to believe. The first six rounds might have not produced knockdowns or blood but they were some of the most intensely competitive rounds I've seen in quite some time . It's not often that you get to see two fantast...
Siena Chops Down the Stanford Cardinal
You probably know Siena best as one of the sacrificial lambs of March Madness, yet on Saturday they knocked off a solid Stanford squad. The win is quite possibly the biggest for the Saints since their huge NCAA Tournament upset of the same Cardinal program almost 19 years ago. Siena had four players...
Rockets Can't Handle Suns (Or Anyone Else) Without T-Mac
The Phoenix guards were simply overwhelming in the team's 115-105 win over the Rockets. The win marked five straight for the Sun while Houston dropped their third consecutive game since losing Tracy McGrady to an elbow injury. Amare Stoude and Leandro Barbosa scored 21 a piece with Steve Nash adding...
About Last Night
What you missed while wondering why Anton Chigurh is so ornery... • CFB: Oklahoma was sent packing by that wacky "spread" offense of Texas Tech. • NBA: New Orleans is unstoppable. Plus the Wolves kinda suck. • CBB: UVA and Arizona squared off for the fourth straight year, the Cavaliers became the fi...
It's Filled With Flaxy Goodness
