Report: Jeff Triplette Will No Longer Be Available To Screw Up Football Games
NFL referee Jeff Triplette, famous for blinding Orlando Brown and bungling a 2013 replay review badly enough to trigger changes to the NFL’s replay system, was part of the officiating crew for Saturday’s AFC Wild Card game, a sloppily officiated game that drew harsh criticism from former officiating...

We'll Never Know The Full Extent Of Jeff Fisher's Crimes Against Football
The Rams are 6-2 and in first place in their division. Todd Gurley, who looked possessed by the spirit of Trent Richardson last season, is a fringe MVP candidate this year.

Eagles Mime Baseball Again With Hit-By-Pitch TD Celebration

Kato Kaelin Has Had It Up To Here With Brewers Reliever Jeremy Jeffress

He blew it—failing to cover first base quickly enough ...
Rangers Manager Jeff Banister Takes Matters Into His Own Hands, Carries Pigeon Off Field
The Rangers and Angels were joined by a very special guest on the infield tonight: a pigeon, who hobbled around with a seemingly injured wing until someone was finally brave enough to step up to the plate and rescue the poor creature by himself.
