The first time I heard a grid pool described, my father was coming home with a pocketful of bills he'd just won down at his favorite watering hole.

In those days, there were only three TV networks, using giant studio cameras, and no one had ever seen a portable cam...
The Perfect Encapsulation Of The Media's Midweek Super Bowl Coverage, In One <em>SportsCenter</em> Screencap
Yesterday, John and Jim Harbaugh—brothers, dontcha know—held a joint press conference in New Orleans. ESPN apparently recorded it, reviewed it, broke it down, and came away with the above stats.

Ray Lewis Would Prefer You Stop Asking Questions About His Murder Case, Because "This Is God's Time"
Do people like Ray Lewis? It's hard to tell. Baltimoreans clearly do. But everybody else? No, right? He is—at this point—an average player, one who consumes the spotlight with canned postgame bible-thumping and tears. That's no good....
Joe Flacco's Father Summed Him Up Pretty Perfectly
