Jack Edwards Mocks Peter Gammons, Makes Fart Noise During Bruins Game

Jim Harbaugh's Antics Are Your First-Half NFC Championship Highlight
Is Jim Harbaugh coaching? Then he's probably throwing some kind of tantrum. He was certainly up to his usual tricks at the end of the first half today, and if we have to pick sides we're hoping for another game of Jim Harbaugh antics in the Super Bowl....
