Floyd Mayweather Jr. Bet $1 Million Against Tim Tebow
Two weeks ago, the New England Patriots walked all over the Denver Broncos in a 41-23 win. More importantly, Mayweather got rich—well, richer. The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that Mayweather had $1 million on the Patriots. The director of the Cantor Gaming sports book at the M Resort, Mike Colb...
Elvis Dumervil Made Tom Brady Fear For His Life
Sure, the Patriots throttled the Broncos 41-23. But New England's victory didn't come at the expense of a little of Tom Brady's machismo, as the horrified look in his eyes upon this sack by Elvis Dumervil was more apropos for someone who wears Uggs. Which, I guess, means it's apropos—period. ...
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.

As a kicker, the reporter asked the pair what they want for Chri...
Here's Tom Brady's Bitchfest With An Assistant Coach
Up a touchdown late in the Patriots' battle in Washington, Tom Brady threw an interception in the Redskins' end zone then threw a tantrum on his own sideline with New England assistant coach Bill O'Brien.

Just Gronk Bein' Gronk
Rob Gronkowski set the NFL season record for TD catches by a tight end today with his 14th grab, but it was set up by this remarkable play in which the porn star-loving Patriot managed to stay on his feet long enough to turn a short gain into a... longer one. [CBS]...

Because Any Time You Beat The 63rd Best Team In College Basketball, You Have To Rush The Court
George Mason had a miracle tourney run six seasons ago, didn't receive a single vote in this week's AP Top 25, and are ranked 63rd in KenPom's ratings. Florida Atlantic students apparently didn't get the memo, and stormed the court after their overtime win over the Patriots this weekend. Because y...
Let's Watch The Patriots' Julian Edelman Somewhat Improbably Return This Punt For A Touchdown
Julian Edelman's been everywhere on the field for the Patriots tonight—making tackles on coverage teams and now returning a punt 72 yards to paydirt. It made for 24 (and counting) unanswered points against the Chiefs, and you probably forgot that he's done this before....

The Saddest Sad Faces Of Sad Penn State Bros
