Beats By Dre Banned From The Heads Of NFL Players

Jake Locker Takes Brutal Late Hit To Head, Stays In The Game
Watch the video above. You'll see Jake Locker scramble for a 10-yard touchdown and get clocked with a forearm shiver to the helmet.

Yusmeiro Petit Was Essentially The Giants' Second Starter Last Night
Yusmeiro Petit has a weird position on the Giants. He was passable as a spot starter, but couldn't earn a place in a strong San Francisco rotation. The Giants don't need him to close out games, either, and Petit is capable of pitching longer than only an inning. But last night, in the longest MLB ...
Your NFL Week 5 Viewing Maps
There's not a lot that stands out on the NFL's early Sunday afternoon schedule this week, save for maybe the duel between the 3-1 teams from Texas. If you're west of the Mississippi, you're probably getting that one. In the later set, the undefeated Cardinals attempt to announce their presence agai...
Counterprogramming Football: What To Watch Today Instead Of The NFL

This Demented Letter About A Packers Party Is In Comic Sans, Of Course
Green Bay Press-Gazette editor Amy Bailey wrote her Oct. 1 column about an incident at a Packers viewing party she attended. It was straightforward: A man said, "It's a big ol' nigger pile," during a fumble, and Bailey called him out for saying a racist thing. Because yes, calling a scrum for a foot...

Goodell: Look At All The Talking I'm Doing About Domestic Violence
After the Ray Rice debacle, Roger Goodell talked a lot about making the NFL a leader on the issue of domestic violence.

Thursday Games Not Shitty, Says NFL After Another Shitty Thursday Game
So, that was gross. Vikings-Packers finished with a score of a million to a little, or somewhere in that range. (I have to look it up. I didn't watch, because I don't hate myself.) And yet, it wasn't close to the biggest blowout nor the worst game on the Thursday night slate so far....
