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. Kudos to Rich for keeping a straight face through it all. [NFL N...
Recalling The Time Bennie Blades Pulled A Bazooka Out Of His Car Trunk To Settle A Fight
Here's a nice, terrifying memory from Lomas Brown—the former NFL player who now says things on ESPN for money—regarding his former Detroit teammate Bennie Blades. Brown told Dan Le Batard and Le Batard's father today that Blades was the "craziest teammate" he ever had, and then shared this special...
Revelations From Tim Tebow's Mic'd Up Sunday
If it's true that nobody actually KNOWS Tim Tebow, it's also true that we see in him whatever we want to see.

NFL Players Hate Cris Collinsworth, Too
Sports Illustrated asked 237 NFL players to name their least favorite commentator. Collinsworth was No. 1, but the list consists almost entirely of ESPN and NBC guys, which makes sense—most players are spared the others since they're all at work on Sunday afternoons. The current players are especial...
Bears Receiver Sam Hurd Arrested After Allegedly Trying To Purchase 5 To 10 Kilos Of Cocaine From A Federal Agent
Even though Chicago brought in Roy Williams this offseason, Bears wide receiver Sam Hurd may have been the more disappointing former Cowboy. Hurd has only eight catches (no touchdowns) all season, and he's staring down some major federal drug charges....

Ndamukong Suh Decides Image Isn't Tarnished Enough, Walks Out On Weekly Radio Interview

The Worst Way To Find Out Santa Isn't Real: From A Patriots Punter
FOX in Boston did a spot with Julian Edelman and Zoltan Mesko at the Patriots' annual charity event. Interesting choice of players since Edelman's Jewish and Mesko, being Romanian, probably worships the Great Fire Eagle or something. As a kicker, the reporter asked the pair what they want for Chri...

Aaron Rodgers Is A Miserable Bandwagoner
Hey, it's Aaron Rodgers wearing a Man City jersey! Wow, it's awesome to find a longtime fan of the Blues in the NFL, and in Wisconsin of all places.

The NFL Is Happy To Sell You This Photograph Of A Concussed Colt McCoy [UPDATE]

Hey Look, Someone Actually Bet That The First Score In Giants/Cowboys Would Be A Safety
"ACCVentures" over in the Covers.com forums put down $22 at 50-1 that the first score in Sunday Night Football would be a safety. Seems kind of low, and he had to play each team separately, but he's got $1100 and you don't....
Death Is Stalking The 1994 Chargers
It is the plot of the least likely Final Destination sequel ever: members of the 1994 AFC Champion Chargers have been dying premature deaths. Even more premature than the average CTE-doomed football player: with Lew Bush's death last week, seven eight players from that Super Bowl team have passed aw...
