The Jaguars Have Fired Mike Mularkey
The Jaguars' Mike Mularkey—who was the NFL's interim least-interesting head coach after Pat Shurmur's firing on Black Monday—finally got the axe today.

The Raiders Cost Oakland 200 Police Officers In A Startlingly Direct Way

Jaguars Fans Will Show Up In Droves To Watch Tebow, Who Is A Game-Time Decision To Hold A Clipboard
Crashing disappointment, banal mediocrity and immense, unfounded hype align this week to make for an extremely sad pre-game note for what is sure to be either a deflating exercise in late season NFL triviality this Sunday or a hilarious exercise in late season NFL triviality this Sunday: Because of ...
Here's An Awesome Dunk That Was Ruined By A Stupid Referee Who Called It A Charge
That's Jacksonville College's Daniel Skinner, a junior-college basketball player who likes to dunk on any dumbass who gets in his way, pulling off what was very nearly a free-throw line dunk in a game against Tyler Junior College....

Say This For Newly Former Arkansas Head Coach John L. Smith: He Screwed Only Himself, Never The Help
The University of Arkansas will not be renewing the contract of interim coach John L.

Last Night Reminded The World That Blaine Gabbert Is Hopeless And Chad Henne Isn't
We wondered in September why the Jaguars had refused to bench Blaine Gabbert (pictured above, on his ass)—their woeful second-year quarterback—in favor of Chad Henne, their slightly below-average (serviceable!) young veteran backup.
