Atlanta Will Demolish Turner Field After The Braves Leave
The Braves' move to Cobb County is no done deal. No contract has been signed, no financing secured for a new stadium.

Reggie Miller Saying "Shit" On TV Is The Least Offensive Part Of This

Atlanta came within 10 yards of the Super Bowl, but in the salary cap era that's no reason not to blow things up.

What One Writer Learned At Bleacher Report University
Nick Bond, writing for our friends at The Classical, recently went through the training program at Bleacher Report, a sort of orc pit out of which all B/R writers must climb before they write for the site.

<em>USA Today</em> Just Couldn't Wait To Troll Braves Fans And Everyone Else About That Call Last Night
Like the call that handed the Seahawks the win over the Packers two Mondays ago, the ruling in the Braves-Cardinals death match was complex enough to trip up the layman.

The NFL Had A Record Arrest-Free Streak Going Until Michael Turner's DUI
In Week 1 of the preseason, Chad Johnson was arrested on domestic violence charges. After Monday night's win, Michael Turner was collared for DUI.
