Chargers vs. Titans, Second Half and Goodnight
It's been a while since I last checked in, but it's still the same football game. We're well into the third quarter of the final game of Wild Card Weekend '08 Bukkake and this game is dragging along with a score of 6-3. Tennessee is winning, Floats (pictured) i really crappy, and LaDainian is still...

Chargers vs. Titans, This Time It's For Real
You thought Philip Rivers was needlessly cocky before? Well it's playoff time baby, time to step up the douche! The real key is to see just how close Norv Turner can keep this thing. Nobody holds back a dynamic team in the playoffs like Norv Turner! Enjoy, and stay tuned after the jump......

Bucs vs. Giants, The Second Half!
It was either this, or a picture of four Tampa cheerleaders. I like to think I made the right decision (thanks to Getty Images for the choice though). Since we last saw each other at halftime things have taken an interesting turn. The Bucs botched the opening kickoff giving the Giants an incredible...

Bucs vs. Giants! Yar, They Blow!
It's that time again, and I'm positively pumped for this one! New York and Tampa are taking the field and the air is alive with excitement! Who am I kidding? I'm watching Pitt play Nova while taping the Wizards and the Sonics. Don't worry though, I've brought in a reinforcement television and I'll ...

Keeping Up With Wild Card Weekend
If you happen to find yourself in contact with a fan of the Steelers or the Redskins you should probably just give them their space. It wasn't a good night, and judging from the stuff I've already heard on ESPN, it's not going to be a good morning or afternoon. The Steelers stormed back from an 18 ...

Seattle vs. Washington: Second Half
image via Getty I hope you enjoyed that first half, because I sure as shit didn't. The Redskins punted the ball at a breakneck pace and once Seattle got on the board their offense began to slow down. Then at the very end of the half master timekeeper Mike Holmgren decided he didn't want to leave any...

To Watch Tonight
What to watch while thinking about canceling that trip out to Torrey PInes...after the jump......

Seattle vs. Washington: First Half
Image via army.mil It's just about that time and my fingers are shaking from the anticipation... and the delirium tremens. The Seahawks and their alleged 12th Man have opened up Qwest field to the visiting Redskins and the kickoff of the 2008 NFLplayoffs are just moments away. I won't actually "liv...

Jenny Hendrix Loves Jags, Anal
The Jacksonville Jaguars have stormed into the playoffs with a bandwagon that has quickly filled near capacity. Well now they've got something even better going for them. When the Jags take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in the second game of today's wild card double header they'll have a porn star in t...

Welcome to Wild Card Weekend
Praise Jesus, Adonai, Allah, Buddha, Vishnu, Yaweh, Zeus, Odin, Bill Brasky, and their father, Tim Tebow. The NFL Playoffs arrive today and my preferred team will be kicking things off in about four hours. Seattle have the honor of hosting the early game and the weather is about what you'd expect. T...

The Only Playoff Simulation That Matters
Above is the second half of the Giants-Buccaneers tilt; it's amazing how compelling watching the final seconds turns out to be. We are almost certain that will be more entertaining than the actual game....

Another Morning Times Column ... And It's Free This Time!
You might remember, back in March, when we wrote a daily column for NYTimes.com about the NCAA basketball tournament. Those columns ran back when they had TimesSelect over there, so you had to pay for them. Everything's free over there now, which means not only can you read the old ones, you can rea...

TNT Is Thinking Ahead
In about two-and-a-half hours, the 2007 Major League Baseball postseason will begin. As you know, all games will be on TBS, which is why we have strange start times like 3 p.m. ET and 6:30 p.m. ET. We thought this would be a problem. But TBS is off to a good start....
