Nick Saban's Agent Sure Seems To Be Shopping Him To Texas

James Dolan Is On The Warpath Again

I'm not ambitious enough to be downright thrifty, but I try to avoid abject retail stupidity. I know better than to buy paper plates when the free magazines and underwear catalogs that clog my mailbox are perfectly capable of supporting even the hammin'est of sandwiches.

How To Make Pumpkin Beer Bread, Because Autumn And Because Beer
It's almost impossible these days to talk about autumn without talking about pumpkin-flavored this and pumpkin-flavored that. For which, one can presume, we have Starbucks to thank. And you know?

Sources: Some Jaguars Players Got Beat Up In London After Sunday's Game
