Bart Scott Attempts to Lead Media Boycott After Jets Actually Win A Game

Will We Ever See A Return To The Glory Days Of Colts-Patriots?: Your NFL Late Games Viewing Guide
We have four more games left on the day and three more begin right now. OK, fine—due to some scheduling rejiggering this year, there is actually one more right now and then two more in the coming 20 minutes, but you get the point.

The Mismanaged, Crazy Jets Might Be Keeping Tebow On The Bench Because They Can't Afford The Incentives In His Contract
One of the great things about the Jets this year—the only great thing, perhaps—is that by dealing for Tim Tebow, emphasizing the extent to which they'd use him (they said it would 25% of snaps), and not using him nearly that much (it was 10.1% before week ten and inched slightly higher after), they'...
The Ditka Family Had A Pretty Rough Friday
Mark Ditka, son of Mike, is currently awaiting trial in Lake County, Illinois for his fourth DUI arrest, and for possession of a controlled substance (hydrocodone) turned up during the ensuing search of his car....

Did Michael Irvin Confront A Heckler At Last Night's Game? [UPDATE: He Did Not]

Anonymous Jets Source Believes Anonymous Jets Sources Were Made Up
This year's edition of the Jets' public meltdown began in earnest this week as the Daily News ran a series of anonymous quotes from the locker room blasting Tim Tebow's gimmickry and poor quarterbacking. (You could just have easily framed the same quotes as a positive story, about how the locker roo...
Michael Irvin Brought Out The PDA For Bills Running Back C.J. Spiller
The noisefest that is the Thursday Night Football post-game show on NFL Network usually proceeds like an unfunny version of TNT's Inside The NBA: full of wackiness, but lacking the charm or anything memorable.

Um, Colin Cowherd Has Been Picking Football Games Really Well This Year
ESPN's Colin Cowherd is, even by sports-shock-jock standards, pretty loathsome. He's an inveterate race-baiter. I needn't carry on, but if you'd like me to, I will—he periodically lapses into a nasal whine that no one needs to hear on pay-TV....

Former Texans Punter Suing Reliant Stadium Owners For Being Injured By Its Crappy Field
This week, the Texans brought in a handful of veteran kickers for tryouts. They're reportedly happy with Shayne Graham's field goals, but wish he could get a little more distance on kickoffs. They had a decent candidate last year, an undrafted rookie K/P out of Central Michigan named Brett Hartmann,...
Why We Expect Black Football Players To Return From Injury Faster Than White Players
There's an intriguing study published today in the peer-reviewed journal PLOS ONE, called "Racial Bias in Perceptions of Others' Pain."
