Andre Johnson Is Sad
This afternoon, the Texans, who suck, lost to the Jaguars, who suck to some really historic degrees. That has made a lot of people in Houston sad, and apparently introspective. People like Andre Johnson. Here he is talking to a delightfully trolly ESPN reporter: ...
We Got A Joseph Fauria Touchdown, So We Get A Joseph Fauria Dance
I might be showing a few too many cards here, but that looks a lot like the dorky disco dance from World of Warcraft to me. The touchdown gives Fauria six on the season....
Tavon Austin Scores Cool Touchdown, Moose Calls Him "Tavon Martin"
Cool pitch and half-reverse play here to spring Tavon Austin for a score. Daryl Johnston got his young black males mixed up, though, and called Austin "Tavon Martin"—because, well, you know—before quickly correcting himself. As unfortunate slips go, this isn't the worst, but I'm sure Moose would ra...
The Secret To Surviving The Holidays (There Isn't One)
This is the hard part for me. The race is over and all I have pushing me is my own determination, which is another way of saying "nothing." It's especially dangerous now, too, that the holidays are coming up, which is so weird when you think about it....
Skip Bayless Is Making Up Shit About The NFL And JFK's Assassination

Ensworth (TN) was up 21-12 with two seconds to go in its state semifinal matchup against Brentwood Academy when Brentwood's Derek Barnett—committed to play at Tennessee next year—hit an Ensworth player well out of bounds. It was a clearly cheap and late hit and tempers flared. The referees ended th...

Joe Philbin Thinks Google Glass Comes Equipped With Lasers
We learn two things from the video below (autoplay, sorry), neither having anything to do with the Dolphins' lackluster running game. First, Google Glass is still basically Spy Tech for adults but second, and more importantly, these NFL press conferences are actually kind of sad....

Navy Almost Lost Last Night Because They Scored Too Many Touchdowns

Jeff Van Gundy got off to a rough start last night and didn't even make it to the tip of Warriors-Lakers before stepping in it.
