AD Tim Pernetti Follows Mike Rice Out The Door At Rutgers
The true measure of any college sports scandal—a real scandal, not a bullshit "teenagers use drugs" witchhunt—is how high the housecleaning goes. Rutgers has reached DEFCON 2, as athletic director Tim Pernetti is out. It can still go higher....

Brendon Ayanbadejo Was Cut Because He's Old And Expensive, Not Because He Supports Gay Marriage
The Ravens released linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo yesterday afternoon, after five seasons in Baltimore.
