Malcolm Butler's Interception As Called By Patriots & Seahawks Radio
You've heard the NBC call of last night's decisive goal-line interception by Malcolm Butler, but if you haven't had the opportunity to experience the thrill of victory (Patriots radio, via WBZ, above) or the agony of defeat (KIRO Seahawks radio, below) then here's your opportunity. Patriots analys...

Tom Brady Can Finally Relax
Tom Brady's not the greatest quarterback of all time, not even after winning his fourth Super bowl and third Super Bowl MVP, so cool it with that talk. But he's quite probably the most successful. And in a team sport that's disproportionately reliant on one position, especially in the game's curre...
Here's Video Of Doug Baldwin's Flagged Touchdown Celebration
NBC might have cut away from Doug Baldwin's touchdown celebration, but this fan in the stands didn't. Now, let us debate: Is the Seahawk pooping the football, or laying it like an egg? This is surely the most pressing issue from last night's Super Bowl....
Anonymous Seahawk Blames Final Play Call On Anti-Lynch Conspiracy
It's important to try and understand the bone-deep despair that has no doubt infected the Seattle Seahawks before judging their postgame comments. A certain madness can come from a gut-punch like the one they suffered in the final seconds of Super Bowl XLIX, and that madness can lead to people sayin...
Seattle's Game-Ending INT Makes No Sense No Matter How Much You Watch It
Presumably, you've seen this play by now. But repeated viewing is instructive, because enough looks at this miscarriage of tactics should put the lie to any rationalizations you might be batting around. ...

Report: "Ball Boy" Who Took Footballs Into Bathroom Is An Elderly Man
The investigation into how numerous footballs used by the Patriots became deflated during the AFC Championship Game has focused on the Patriots-employed ball boy that took the balls from the referees locker room to the field. In-between he stopped off in what was at first ominously reported as "an...
Gronk Is The Best Tight End In Football, And The Patriots' Best Chance
Most historians credit former Michigan and Green Bay star Ron Kramer as the first "real" player at the position. "He was the prototype," Packers quarterback Bart Starr once told me. At a shade over 6-3 and 235-240 pounds, Kramer had nearly the mass of an offensive lineman and was quick enough to get...
Judge Decides Aaron Hernandez Murder Trial Jurors Can Watch Super Bowl
The Aaron Hernandez murder trial began on Thursday, and yesterday Judge Susan Garsh had an interesting decision to make: Should jurors be allowed to watch tomorrow's Super Bowl? While the NFL certainly hopes their biggest game of the year isn't sullied with even the mere mention of the alleged doubl...
How Will The Seahawks' Secondary Deal With Rob Gronkowski?
Richard Sherman might be the most vocal player in Seattle's hard-hitting, receiver-eating secondary known as the Legion of Boom, but he's far from the only key contributor. In fact, depending on his elbow's condition, Sherman might not even play a major part in the Hawks' gameplan. ...
This Year's Super Bowl Teams Really Are The Best In Their Conference
Hey, here's a change. The participants in this year's Super Bowl, through the NFL's single-elimination playoff format, were actually the best in their respective conferences this year. That never happens! Except, uhm, when it happened last year. But otherwise—that almost never happens!...
Prosecutors: Hernandez's DNA Found On Shell Casing, Joint At Crime Scene
The Aaron Hernandez murder trial got underway yesterday, and prosecutors revealed two previously un-reported pieces of evidence while delivering opening statements. ...
Super Bowl Footballs Will Receive Extra Security
Remember, if you can, back a whole three days ago, before Marshawn Lynch conquered America: it's tough to believe now, but there used to be a big scandal about deflated footballs or something. (It's hard to recall the specifics.) The NFL is taking no chances on a repeat of the controversy. Nobody is...
The Patriots' Super Bowl Success Relies On The Brady-Gronk Connection
Since Randy Moss got the Jazzy Jeff toss from the New England in the middle of the 2010 season, Patriots fans have spent offseason after offseason squawking about the team's need for a deep-threat receiver. Those people are idiots. The current Patriots do not need a deep threat, because Tom Brady su...
You Can Tell College Gronk's Cool Because He's Wearing Sunglasses
Here we see human Spuds MacKenzie Rob Gronkowski in his natural state at the University of Arizona: No shirt, sunglasses, and a big dumb smirk. You can hear the 311 playing through your screen....
