Jackpot! Both FOX and CBS have two games today. Too bad most of the rosters will be UFL-quality. It's Curtis Painter's time to shine! [The506]...

Most of you get Baltimore and Pittsburgh, two teams that wish their defensive legacies could actually take the field today. Expect a shootout. Keep us updated on the epic Cleveland/Oakland showdown in the comments. [The506]...

Dear NFL Network: thanks to you, the teams on the early slate are a combined 34 games under .500. Dear blizzard: today wouldn't have been the worst day to knock out TV reception. [The506]...

Middle America wins the 1:00 games slate (or should I say "noon games," our new Hardee's-eating overlords?) as us coastal elite miss out on the promising Indy/Tennessee game. I promise to be nicer next time I'm changing planes. [The506]...
Jonas Gustavsson, IR-Upper Body (Heart Surgery)
Toronto's Monster will have his second procedure in three months to fix an irregular heartbeat. Wouldn't be the first time Leafs fans questions their players' hearts. [Toronto Star]...

Well, someone is convinced the country really wants to see the Redskins play. But after last week's Detroit/Cleveland showstopper, I promised the scheduling gods I'd never question their wisdom again. [The506]...

Some decent matchups today in Baltimore, New York and Green Bay. Please note the incredible accuracy of the TV distribution map, which correctly notes that Jacksonville won't be getting the Jaguars game. [The506]...

Here it is, empirical proof that FOX thinks your desire to watch Brett Favre be Brett Favre trumps your desire to avoid Lions games at all cost. Also, enjoy that all-Florida crapfest, West Virginia. [The506]...

It's Cardinals vs. Bears in the match-up of teams we try to talk ourselves into believing are good. But they're not. Meanwhile, thankfully, the Skins game has been confined to the Zaxby's region of the country. [The506]...

It's sort of a shame the rest of us won't get to see Detroit and St. Louis, sure to be the most even match-up of the day. And if the Rams don't win today, they're not winning ever. [The506]...

Featuring either Favre finally facing a real defense, or a Tampa Bay home game in London. Look, it's the only way that game wasn't going to be blacked out locally. [The506.com]...

Perhaps as restitution for last week's Raiders debacle, the NFL is blessing most of us with two great games to start the day. Let's follow along with the Shockeybowl and Favre actually facing a competent defense. [The506]...
Chris Bosh Now Owns The Internet
Because no one reads the newspaper, and SportsCenter's anchors are too perky for this early in the morning, Deadspin combs the best of the broadsheets and the blogosphere to bring you everything you need to know to start your day....
Gretzky Heads To Toronto In 46-Player Trade?
A new book claims former Leafs owner Harold Ballard once tried to trade his entire franchise to Edmonton. (He wanted to swap cities with the Oilers in exchange for $50 million.) Then Janet Jones would have married Darryl Sittler. [TorontoStar]...

So what if the Giants are forced to resort to their second string QB? The Raiders have to resort to their first-stringer. Enjoy watching the Oakland game, America. You poor bastards. [The506]...
A Peek Inside The Mind Of An NHL Head Coach
Spoiler....There's not much there. Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson inadvertently gave TV viewers a look at his super-secret game notes and as Orland Kurtenblog says: "this kinda destroys the illusion that an nhl coach works on a higher level." [Kurtenblog]...

Lions fans, please ignore the distribution maps, as your apathy has rendered them irrelevant. Basically only the Beltway gets to see the Skins become Detroit's first win in years. Bank on it. [The506]...

Looking at these TV distribution maps, I have to say, sucks to be you, most of the country. If you're actually watching a decent game, share it with the rest of us in the comments. [The506]...
They're Back!
The mad genius has returned with his NFL TV distribution maps. Enjoy that awful Vikings/Browns game, most of the country! [The506.com]...
