Jason Babin Blasts The Eagles And Their "Socialistic System"
Before the 2011 season, the Eagles brought in Jim Washburn and then Jason Babin—who's only ever thrived in Washburn's 4-3. It worked well for a year, when Babin recorded a team-record 18 sacks. Like everything else defensive-related in Philly this year though, the D-line play has gone to shit. The E...

Yes, Jim Lampley's Glasses Have Real Lenses

Jim Boeheim Closed His Press Conference Last Night With A Call For More Gun Control
Last night, Syracuse men's basketball coach Jim Boeheim earned his 900th career victory when his team defeated the University of Detroit Mercy 72-68. After the game, though, Boeheim seemed to have the tragedy in Newtown on his mind, as he ended with some spirited words about gun control. Boeheim a...
Back In 1995, <em>The Simpsons</em> Visited <em>The NFL On Fox</em>, And Homer Took A Shot At Jerry Jones
This only came to my attention yesterday, and—as I'm a Simpsons fan and something of a sports enthusiast—I figured that if I hadn't seen it, most people likely hadn't. In 1995, the Simpsons did what has to be the best promo for the NFL on Fox—for any pre-game show—ever. It's not quite vintage, unt...

Ravens Fire Offensive Coordinator Cam Cameron, Because It's His Fault That Kirk Cousins Owned Baltimore
After two straight losses, the Baltimore Ravens have decided to fire offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and promote quarterbacks coach Jim Caldwell, according to the Baltimore Sun. It's no surprise to see a team cut loose a coach to try to shake off a bad spell. But it's a little weird to see the Ra...

Jim "Jimbo" Leyland Was The Most Popular Boy At His High School 50 Years Ago
Jim Leyland held court for the media today at baseball's winter meetings, and by all indications, he put on quite a show.

Two Virginia Tech Players Charged With Building, Setting Off Explosive Device [Update]
Walk-ons Josh Trimble and Brian Rody haven't picked a major, but perhaps chemistry would suit them: the two were able to build some sort of explosive device, and set it off in an off-campus apartment last night. Unfortunately, both those things are against the law....
Philadelphia Eagles' Line Coaches Jim Washburn And Howard Mudd Were Apparently Dicks To Everyone
After suffering their eighth straight loss last night, the Philadelphia Eagles tossed defensive line coach Jim Washburn. Washburn was brought in only for his "Wide 9" scheme—hell, they signed the now-crazypants Jason Babin just to help the formation succeed—but since Babin's gone and Andy Reid need...
Jim Schwartz Ain't Even Mad
The Colts topped Detroit yesterday thanks to some last-second Andrew Luck magic, and it's the sort of ending one might expect could launch notoriously-volatile Lions coach Jim Schwartz into orbit. Not so, it seems, as Schwartz simply brushed it off with a "haters gonna hate" and marched back into t...
ESPN Screwup Lets Viewers Listen In On Jimmy Dykes And Dave O'Brien Talking About The National Anthem Singer's Clothing
In yet another technical blunder that led to inadvertent viewer eavesdropping on ESPN talent, a "live look-in" during ESPN's college basketball coverage last night patched in audio of the upcoming Syracuse-Arkansas game instead of the intended live-action Georgia-USF game. It just so happened that...

T.J. Simers Believes UCLA Threw The Stanford Game, And Hijacked Jim Mora Jr.'s Press Conference To Prove It
UCLA already has the Pac-12 South clinched. Their opponent in the championship game would be either Stanford or Oregon, depending on whether the Bruins won or lost against the Cardinal on Saturday. Well, UCLA lost, 35-17, and they'll have their rematch in just four days. Where the rest of us see o...
Jim Schwartz's Illegal Challenge Doubled The Texans' Chances Of Winning The Game
With the possible exception of the tuck rule, the rule that tripped up the Lions and Jim Schwartz has to be one of the dumbest in the game. You don't have to throw the challenge flag because we'll review it on our own, the rulebook says, but if you throw the challenge flag we won't review it....
