Referee Eats It In Raiders-Jets Game
As the Raiders were scurrying to get set up for a game-tying field goal in the final seconds of the first half, our enthusiastic friend has a bit of a problem with the whole "one foot in front of the other" thing. Come for the falling humans, stay for the meta ESPN-Axis style breakdown of the play...

TASER® Trademark Hounds Insist Man Using "Taser" At Stadium Fight Was Not Using TASER®

Alternate Footage Of The Cowboys/Jets Taser Fight
This newly-uploaded video captures more of the aftermath of the attack, beginning with an off-camera woman screaming to security, "Hurry up, he's got a taser!" It ends, as most Jets fan videos do, with the crowd chanting "asshole."...
Cowboys Fan Didn't Just Taser A Jets Fan; He Tasered A Marine On 9/11
The Cowboys still fancy themselves "America's Team," but there are very little in the way of patriotism requirements to root for them. Leroy McKelvey of South Carolina is the man who somehow brought a stun gun into MetLife Stadium, and tased three fans in his section at halftime. One of them a marin...
A Brief Dispatch From Las Vegas On The Occasion Of The Jets Beating The Cowboys On 9/11
LAS VEGAS—The scene: Caesars Palace. A quiet corner of a quiet bar, DAL-NYJ on the TV. A handful of exceedingly pleasant Cowboys fans sitting in a half-circle. A lone Jets fan sitting in front—a desiccated New Yorker given to periodic bursts of yelping and fist-pumping. You know the type. All coiled...

Behold This Bumbling Romo-Sanchez Lowlight Reel
It was never clear last night just which quarterback would throw away the game for his team: Tony Romo or Mark Sanchez. In the end it was Romo, who fumbled twice and threw the ball away to Darrelle Revis (Sanchez also threw a pick and fumbled the ball away) to help the Jets set up a game-winning f...

9/11 Stadium Brawl At Jets-Cowboys Game Includes One Fan Zapping People With A Taser
I guess we could assume that the security at MetLife Stadium was being extra vigilant during tonight's stressful, gloomy anniversary game and were so preoccupied with making sure no fan tried to sneak in an umbrella or a laser pointer that they simply forgot to pat-down everyone for the little thi...
Like The Real Thing, Fake Brett Favre Just Won't Go Away
First, he showed up at a Packers practice dressed in a Favre jersey and apparently signed a few autographs, which, for a day or two, made for a rather amusing story. Then, somebody interviewed him, and he was just so surprised at all the attention he received for showing up at a Packers practice dr...
Rob Ryan On Rex's Foot Fetish: "Naw, I Mean Hell, He Is A Little Freaky I Guess"
You may have read about the possible foot-fetish-filmin' proclivities of New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan. He likes feet, Deadspin told you last December, and then Wes Welker joked about it while Ryan wouldn't talk about it....
There's A Campaign To Keep Nickelback From Performing At The Winnipeg Jets' First Game, Because Nickelback Sucks
No one knows why, but far too many dim marketing morons get paid ungodly amounts of money to "entertain" us at sporting events by hiring your mom's idea of a rockin' band. And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse than the NFL's decision to have Kid Rock, Lady Antebellum, and Maroon 5 rin...
For A Grieving NHL, Dustin Byfuglien's Drunken Boating Arrest Should Be No Laughing Matter
A physical hockey player gets caught, intoxicated and bloated, doing something illegal. More than that, his actions were dangerous and self-destructive and put those around him at risk. In the wake of the deaths of Derek Boogaard, Rick Rypien and Wade Belak, we expected an outcry: Get him the profes...
Jet Skiing The Streets Of New York After The Hurricane
To be precise, this is Lawson Boulevard in Oceanside, just beyond the Queens border. The low-lying ground and nearby beach were the ingredients for devastating flooding, but for one enterprising soul, it was the chance of a lifetime....

Why Is Bill Belichick Stockpiling Mediocre Former Jets This Offseason?
