Titans Haze Injured Rookies By Taping Them to Goalpost, Covering Them In Food
It's good to see that NFL hazing will never die. At least not until someone tears an ACL or suffocates while taped to a goal post. The Titans held their annual dizzy bat race for the healthy players. But they reserved their true scorn for the players who were too injured to participate in the dizzy...
Leitch Would Love Punt Returner Chris Carr
Chris Carr played three years with the Raiders before heading to Tennessee for a chance to makethe Titans' club as a special-teamer. He even had two punt returns in an exhibition game against his former team last night. But that's not why we care. No, we care because among Carr's other varied inter...
College Football Previews: #18 Tennessee
Last year Tennessee was 10-4 and won the SEC East. Change just three plays from three different games (a made field goal against South Carolina that sent the game into OT, Vanderbilt's missed field goal that would have won the Dores the game, and a blocked Kentucky field goal in OT) and Tennessee i...
Mike Williams, Former First Rounder in 2005, Cut By Third Team
What's worst of all about that, the Titans cut him. And the Titans have the worst receiving corps in the NFL. As if that weren't bad enough Williams was released by the Raiders last October. Since being drafted by the Detroit Lions as the 10th overall pick in the 2005 Draft, Williams has been relea...
Vince Young In Dire Need Of Media Training
Vince Young should probably just take a vow of silence or hire a full-time transcriber to follow him around when he's talking to the media, because it appears he's having trouble translating his own words. Last week, Young apparently told NFL.com writer Thomas George that he was considering retirem...
Vince Young Talks About His Rebound From NFL Joylessness
Well, Vince Young is having himself an active offseason so far. First, he had to explain himself and apologize for that shirtless night out with his Texas cronies and, now, he's admitting that the pressures of the NFL almost drove him to retire after his first season....
Pat Summitt Should Be The Next Coach Of The Knicks
We congratulate the Tennessee Volunteers — we never like calling women's college teams the "Lady" somethings — for their national championship last night. For some reason, it's a little more touching when the elderly mother of the winning coach comes down on the court when the coach is a woman. We'r...
The Thumbtack Turns 10
The Tennessee Titans are turning 10 years old this year, which means we have been dealing with that ridiculous logo for a decade now. Old, old, old, all of us....

Heck, Those Heels Are Out Of Control, Consarn It
Silly East Regional, with your whole going-according-to-seed business: This absolutely will not do. That said, of the four teams hanging around Charlotte next week — wait ... is that North Carolina ... in Charlotte? Boo! — a definitive pecking order has already emerged. That is to say: Don't bet on ...

Tennessee Volunteers
1. Mr. and Mr.s Smith. If the NCAA tourney was played 3-on-3 hoop-it-up style and each team could only field players that had the same name, Tennessee would be considered the greatest college team of all time. Despite some broadcast announcers this season repeatedly insisting that there is a fourth ...
So To Recap: He Hates Tennessee

ESPN Now To Issue Pepper Spray To All TV Correspondents
This was mentioned on Sunday, but was kind of buried ... and when Bruce Pearl paws the lovely Erin Andrews on national television, the world needs to know. Too bad that Ms. Andrews didn't read the Tennessee Athletic Handbook; it clearly states that when dealing with Bruce Pearl a microphone can a...
Deadspin Is Your Alls Daddy, So Why Hate?
You may know John Adams as the Founding Father who would one day support author David McCullough and his family for the better part of two decades. But that name also belongs to the current sports editor/columnist of the Knoxville News-Sentinel, John Adams, who has been notoriously critical of Tenne...
