Yes, That's Pitt Atop The Polls

Introducing The Big Dog In The Big East
You remember Pitt, the team that's always just good enough to screw up your NCAA tournament bracket. They're back again, today throttling Georgetown and its chulo del pañal, Greg Monroe, to go to 14-0....
Steve Young Breaks Down The Souvenir Cup Incident
On Monday we showed you video of the brazen plastic cup attack on former 49ers quarterback Steve Young following the Panthers-Bucs game on ESPN, as Young was trying to wrap up the proceedings at Bank of America Stadium for SportsCenter. On Wednesday he spoke of the incident for the first time....
Lendale White Suggests Panther Swipe
"If they want a nickname, I can nickname them: 'Identity and Theft,'" said White, who's successfully paired with the speedy rookie Chris Johnson this season. "...I was upset because I made that phrase up myself. I mean I made it up. I don't know about NFL Network and all those other guys. I heard so...

Hey Steve, Have This Souvenir Cup!
The fans in Carolina are so polite. After sitting through an exciting Monday Night Football game and then being forced to do a lengthy SportsCenter wrap up, Steve Young was clearly too busy to run to the concession stand and get a tasty soda. So some helpful Panther backer decided to gently toss his...
Jeff Garcia Awaits Your Scrutiny In The Comments
I've been a fan of Jeff Garcia since his little 2006 playoff run with the Eagles and will continue to be one until he finally, mercifully retires. He's not the flashiest guy, wasn't blessed with a big arm, and is particularly unimposing when he's photographed in black and white with freckle-splashed...
How The Gruden Stole Christmas
So are we pretty much agreed that the Big Three in Christmas specials are The Grinch, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and A Charlie Brown Christmas? (Apologies to Will Leitch). Well, one of these will not be seen in the Tampa Bay area as scheduled on Monday, as ABC is pre-empting A Charlie Brown Chri...
Illegal Contact, Packers, 15 Yards And Automatic Loss Of Beer
It's two days later, and all of North Carolina is still in a lather over this Packers fan, who took exception to the Panthers' DeAngelo Williams tossing his touchdown footballs to Carolina fans in the front row of the end zone stands at Lambeau. This one was completed, but the next one was successfu...
Miami Arena goes Ka-Boom
Earlier today, the old home to both the Miami Heat and Florida Panthers got demolished, and we've got video of the implosion following the jump: ...
Fox Sports: They Report, You Decide
Yeah, her character was pretty tough in Sin City, and Kurt Russell really regrets messing with her in Death Proof. But I doubt that Rosario Dawson is up to playing tight end in the NFL. Although I could be wrong, it's more likely that the guys in the Fox Sports production truck just got caught up in...
NFL Season Previews: Carolina Panthers
We're less than two weeks away from the start of the NFL season, so it's time to start the impassioned season previews from various writers, bloggers, diehard fans, cooks, TV personalities, and numerous other walks of life whom consider football the only sport worth watching. Today: The Carolina Pan...
Steve Smith Apologizes (But Would Really Like To Punch You)
For once again releasing his inner Sonny Corleone, Steve Smith would like to apologize. As you know, Smith popped cornerback Ken Lucas in the eye during practice on Friday, with the resultant damage being: a broken nose that will require surgery for Lucas, and a suspension without pay for the first ...
Ken Lucas Owns A Hyperbaric Chamber, And A Black Eye
Panthers' wide receiver Steve Smith got into it with cornerback Ken Lucas earlier today in training camp, the fracas resulting in Lucas being sped off the practice field in a cart with an ice pack over his left eye. But that's not what caught my attention about Lucas. While looking up background on ...
1st Round, Nineteenth Overall: Panthers Select Jeff Otah
Let's measure the Otah draft buzz throughout his career in decibels (dB): 1) Leaves JUCO as a lanky ex-basketball player; wins starting job at Pitt (10 dB; rustling leaves) 2) Stones Chris Long repeatedly in Virginia-Pitt game (70 dB; Space Shuttle launch in your kitchen) 3) Suffers minor injury in...
1st Round, Thirteenth Overall: Panthers Select Jonathan Stewart
Okay, where's Tanier going here? Is going to go the "Jon Stewart" route and make lots of Daily Show (or "The Faculty") references? Is he going to make fun of Oregon's Rejected Nickelodeon Teen Superhero uniforms? Maybe go old school for some Jimmy Stewart references? ...

Pittsburgh Panthers
1. No one recruits NY like Pitt. Pitt coaches regularly take trips to New York and hand out the majority of their scholarships to the best players they can find. On this year's team, five players are from the NYC area, including starters Levance Fields, Ronald Ramon and Keith Benjamin. No wonder Pit...
