Ed Reed And Eddie Money Sang "Two Tickets To Paradise" And It Was An Uncomfortable Mess

NFL Network's Thursday night broadcasts are studies in contrasts: Brad Nessler's rock-solid game call accompanies Mike Mayock's best-in-the-business analysis, and then they send it to a studio panel where Rich Eisen tries (and usually fails) to wrangle his motley crew of screaming fools. Steve Mari...

This NFL Network Discussion Of Cartoons Was So Incredibly Awkward
If you're looking for cringeworthy discussion that has no earthly place being on television, look no further than this clip from NFL Network yesterday.

Somebody Doesn't Like Rich Eisen
Rich Eisen is a consumate professional (if occasionally flirty on the email) so we can't fathom why somebody would chuck garbage at him while doing a live shot before halftime of the miserable Thursday Night Football game in Atlanta.
