So, for all of those who were losing faith in the justice system, you might this morning find yourself with some faith: Bears defensive lineman Tank Johnson is going to serve some jail time for the probation violation that involved all the, you know, artillery. A judge in Chicago sentenced him to 12...
We'd Suggest The Scrambling Eggs, As Long As The Owner Wears Proper Handgear
We're just gonna lay this one out there: Michael Vick has a restaurant, and, sadly, they do not serve Mexican food....
Jerramy Stevens Is A Man On The Move
All told, we think if you're going to get busted for a DUI — with weed in your car — it's probably the best time to do it is not when you're trying to snatch a new free agent contract. But hey, Jerramy Stevens has always marched to the drum of his own beater;...
Terrell Owens Will Not Turn In His Playbook Until He's Done Coloring It
No wonder Terrell Owens complains so much about not getting the ball. It's those damn quarterbacks who read the entire playbook. Filling their heads with running plays, audibles and routes to other receivers. His edition doesn't have all that worthless junk. But it does have a comics section. From t...
The Patriots Are Dominating Free Agency
I'm growing increasingly uncomfortable with how the New England Patriots are spending money this off-season. The Patriots are a threat to win the Super Bowl when they aren't spending money. Adding Adalius Thomas, Wes Welker, Kyle Brady and now Donte Stallworth to the mix... it just makes me terribly...
Can Pacman Jones Please Pick Up His 7-10 Split In Peace?
With "wrong place, wrong time" becoming less of a clich and more of a way of life, Pacman Jones is in the news again. A knife-wielding man went after Pac in a bowling alley last night, threatening to beat him up and slice a few holes in him. Jeff Fisher is not a suspect....
Who Would YOU Trust To Get The Right Supplements In Your Body?
In life, I guess it's best to stick with what you know, which is how a guy like OJ Simpson ends up trying to sell books about how to kill people. Along those same lines, it makes all the sense in the world that Bill Romanowski, former linebacker and admitted steroid abuser, is launching a "supplemen...
The New Buzzsaw Regime Supports Local Business
Richie Anderson, former NFL running back and recently hired as wide receivers coach of the Arizona Cardinals, was finding it difficult to make friends in his new community....
It Is Not Wise To Welch On Mayoral Bets
So here's a bad idea: When you're the mayor of a team that's playing in the NFC Championship game, and you're on the line with the opposing city's radio flagship, it's not a good idea to make promises you can't keep....
Tom Brady Clearly Missed Some Health Classes In High School
So, it's beginning to seem like Tom Brady has some preternaturally talented swimmers....
Eli Manning, Wayne Palmer: Same Guy
We're big fans of the television show "24," mainly because we love torture and can't quite believe Kiefer Sutherland somehow became tough as he got older. (We also have a serious crush on Chloe.) We're not exactly sold on this season, however, mainly because we refuse to believe a simpering wimp lik...
Peyton's Handlers Say He Does This All The Time
Once the "PTI"s and "Around The Horn"s of the world finally got around to noticing Peyton Manning's Sweet 16 party photos yesterday, the folks in Manning's camp had to acknowledge them with the most boring press release paragraph we can remember....
Peyton Manning's Sweet 16 Party Cameo
So, less than a month after you've won the Super Bowl, you've got a bevy of entertainment options and endorsement opportunities. Or, you can just ignore both and sleep on a beach somewhere, maybe make out with balding country music stars your wife, just take it easy....
A Game You And Your Nine Year Old Daughter Can Play Together
So there's this site — Tim Hardaway can tell you all about it — called Stardoll, where you can virtually dress up all the stars into whatever outfits you want them to wear. Apparently, it's a complicated endeavor, with competitions and rankings and all kinds of things that we would consider complete...
Kevin McHale Is The Best General Manager In The History Of Sports
Forbes came up with a system to rank all of the general managers currently working in sports. Kevin McHale ranks first. Forbes needs a new system....
The Money's Out There, You Pick It Up, It's Yours
Let's get caught up again with the orgy of NFL free agent activity. If you're an NFL player, and your agent couldn't work it out so you were a free agent this off-season, you should probably fire him....
Jake Plummer Will Spread Peace Everywhere But Tampa Bay
You've probably heard by now that Jake Plummer threatened to retire from the NFL just as the Broncos were attempting to trade him to Tampa Bay. Jake is serious with the retirement talk, according to those close to him, and he just might spend that retirement making the world a better place. Via Mich...
NFL General Managers Make It Rain
The first twenty-four hours of the NFL's free agency period have come and gone. There was a flurry of activity last evening ... let's get ourselves caught up....
Bristol Tailors Better Start Working On His Suits Right Now
As pretty much everybody knew already, Bill Parcells is trading spending his days with Terrell Owens for the chance to spend them with Chris Berman. We'd call that "a lateral move." Parcells is happy to be back in Bristol....
