Jay Gruden Blasts "Amateurish" ESPN Report About Robert Griffin III
There is never any shortage of drama in Washington, and yesterday's game in Minnesota had a little bit of everything: a bus crash, a large protest against the team name, and, totally unexpectedly, a little bit of a quarterback controversy between RGIII and Colt McCoy. ...
Former 'Skins QB Expresses World's Dumbest Thought About Team's Name
Jay Schroeder played quarterback for Washington from 1984-1987, and he was recently asked by the Pioneer Press to share his opinion on the fact that his former team still uses a racial slur as a name. ...
Report: Brandon Marshall Called Out Jay Cutler In Bears' Locker Room
After a loss to an underwhelming Dolphins team, the 3-4 Bears had it out in a closed locker room—yelling, shoving, everyone right on down to the kicker getting blasted in turn. But as far as postgame meltdowns go, this has the potential to be one of the more constructive ones: behind Brandon Marshal...
Jay Bilas Gets Into The Most Boring Twitter Fight Ever
ESPN talking head Jay Bilas often leads the good fight against the NCAA. It was he who almost singlehandedly forced the NCAA to stop selling athlete jerseys, and he applied a good deal of the pressure that forced Kansas State to let Leticia Romero and Alabama to let Daisha Simmons transfer schoo...
Hunter Pence Slams Into Fence To Rob Jayson Werth Of A Hit
It's not easy playing right field at AT&T Park. The wall is 24 feet high (in honor of Willie Mays), and it is made up of three different surfaces: brick, fence, and padding. A right fielder trying to play the wall has to figure out which surface the ball is likely to hit, and how hard (and where) it...
University Of Alabama Relents, Daisha Simmons Will Play At Seton Hall
The saga of former Alabama basketball player Daisha Simmons looks like it is finally coming to an end. The University of Alabama announced Tuesday night that they had changed course and were supporting Simmons's waiver request to be able to play basketball at Seton Hall this upcoming season.

Jose Bautista Sons Hack Columnist On Twitter
Toronto Sun sports columnist Steve Simmons is known as a bit of a curmudgeon and a troll in the world of Canadian sports media, so a lot of people will be happy to learn that he got his ass handed to him by Blue Jays star Jose Bautista on Twitter today....
With Chance To Gain Ground, Mariners Lose In Agonizing Fashion
The Seattle Mariners weren't going to make the playoffs this season. Going into yesterday's games, they were three back of both the Royals and A's for the final wild card playoff slot, with five games left to play. ESPN's playoff odds calculator gave them only a 0.1 percent chance. But did the Mar...
Just How Good Is Kirk Cousins?
When Robert Griffin III busted his ankle early in Washington's Week 2 game against the Jaguars, the team turned to backup Kirk Cousins to run the offense, again, and damn, he filled in nicely, again. The offense came alive, and Washington came away with a decisive 41-10 victory. RG3's return is st...
Jay Cutler Looks Better When There Aren't Big Plays To Screw Up
During the second quarter of Bears-Niners last night, Cris Collinsworth was amazed by how tight the San Francisco secondary was playing Alshon Jeffery and the rest of the Chicago receivers. There was no room for simple in-routes or comebacks, let alone enough to goose an offense that was scoreless f...
Jay Cutler Is A Goofy Press Conference Sidekick
Brandon Marshall does all of the talking here, but Jay Cutler is the one you want to keep an eye on. Watch as he disinterestedly fires off a text message, pets Brandon Marshall, and makes about three or four vintage Cutler faces. The man was in top form both on and off the field last night....
Marcus Stroman Narrowly Escapes Taking A Liner To The Face
As far as we know, Jays pitcher Marcus Stroman did not poop his pants after juuuust getting his face out of the way of this screaming line drive....
Jay Cutler Was The Most Catastrophic Quarterback Of Week 1
Sunday's box score shows that Jay Cutler threw two interceptions and his team lost to the Bills. What it doesn't show is just how much of a nightmare Cutler inflicted on his team's chances. According to data from Brian Burke of Advanced Football Analytics, Cutler was responsible for three of the...
Melky Cabrera Does Not Like Thunder. Not One Bit.
A big-ass thunderstorm rolled through the St. Petersburg area last night, and it was bad enough to briefly knock the lights out at Tropicana field while the Rays took on the Blue Jays. It was also bad enough to scare the crap out of poor Melky Cabrera....
Don't Step To Will Muschamp About His One-Play Suspensions
Florida's season opener on Saturday was suspended after just one play, a kickoff, after rain and lightning strikes made the game unplayable. Two days later, coach Will Muschamp announced that three suspended Gators would be reinstated. This struck some observers as funny. It was not funny to Muscham...
Mike Napoli, In The Rogers Centre, With Brute Damn Force
Rest in peace, baseball. You were hit so damn hard, and flew so damn far, that you were at least not in much pain when you left this earth. ...
Rays Play Game Under Protest After Late Challenge Overturns Safe Call
The Tampa Bay Rays played today's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jays under protest after a replay challenge in the fourth inning ruled Wil Myers was picked off first base. Myers was initially ruled safe, but after pitcher Mark Buehrle had stepped on the rubber and Yunel Escobar was in the batter's box, the B...
Melky Cabrera's HR Broke A Car Windshield Across The Street From Fenway
Toronto's 14-1 win over Boston was an all-out pummeling, punctuated by Melky Cabrera's second home run on the night, a three-run shot in the nine-run sixth inning. Cabrera's shot to left-center, officially tracked at a disappointing 410 feet, completely cleared the stadium and cracked a car windsh...
Jay Cutler Drove To Camp In A Big-Ass Van, Is Still The Best
Jay Cutler showed up to Bears training camp today driving the vehicle you see above, what Jay calls a conversion van. Cutler made it very clear that this was not a mini-van, probably because he has spawned a whole brood of mini-Cutlers and a mini-van seems like a pretty sensible option for a dad...
