Keeping Up With Wild Card Weekend
If you happen to find yourself in contact with a fan of the Steelers or the Redskins you should probably just give them their space. It wasn't a good night, and judging from the stuff I've already heard on ESPN, it's not going to be a good morning or afternoon. The Steelers stormed back from an 18 ...
Bynum Pulls Out of the G-Spot Too Fast
Will Bynum, formerly of Georgia Tech and Arizona fame, was arrested sometime yesterday in Tel Aviv, Israel (I don't do time zones) after a fight at a club turned into a hit-and-run. via Haaretz.com...
Pittsburgh vs. Jacksonville
Well that last game pretty much ripped my heart right out, but I don't think this one is capable of such damage. Regardless, there's money on the table and I'm already down, so my interest stoked. The Jaguars crossed Clemente Bridge for the second time in three weeks with enough confidence to take t...
Seattle vs. Washington: Second Half
image via Getty I hope you enjoyed that first half, because I sure as shit didn't. The Redskins punted the ball at a breakneck pace and once Seattle got on the board their offense began to slow down. Then at the very end of the half master timekeeper Mike Holmgren decided he didn't want to leave any...

Seattle vs. Washington: First Half
Image via army.mil It's just about that time and my fingers are shaking from the anticipation... and the delirium tremens. The Seahawks and their alleged 12th Man have opened up Qwest field to the visiting Redskins and the kickoff of the 2008 NFLplayoffs are just moments away. I won't actually "liv...
Rating the Swatters
Empty the Bench ranks the best defenders of the rim in the Association. Marcus Camby is an easy choice as number one, but I have to take issue with Andray Blatche's placement. The young ex-John leads all bench players in blocks per game with 1.6. He could be even more effective, but Brendan Haywood ...
Your Requisite Boxing Post!
While last night offered up two very respectable televised nights of boxing, the real show of the year's opening weekend comes tonight when Paulie Malignaggi puts his 140 lb IBF belt on the line against a very game Herman Ngoudjo on Showtime. Paulie is never going to be a knockout threat but he's wi...
Romo and the Simpsons Go South of the Border
The hand you see in the picture belongs to Jessica Simpson and the ass is that of the uber Cowboy, Tony Romo. Apparently Romo, Simpson, her parents, and a few of his teammates are taking advantage of the bye week by crossing the border for some fun in the sun. The scoop comes after the jump from Fly...

Welcome to Wild Card Weekend
Praise Jesus, Adonai, Allah, Buddha, Vishnu, Yaweh, Zeus, Odin, Bill Brasky, and their father, Tim Tebow. The NFL Playoffs arrive today and my preferred team will be kicking things off in about four hours. Seattle have the honor of hosting the early game and the weather is about what you'd expect. T...
Knicks Take Brief 2nd Quarter Lead, Lose
On a team loaded with horrendous contracts Jared Jeffries is often overlooked. Last night the man who signed for $30 million over five years put up a line of zero points, one assist, and two big rebounds against San Antonio. But hey, when you play 16 minutes and only attempt one shot it probably mea...
Kenny Enjoys Popsicles
The man you see here iis one Kenny Irons of the Cincinnati Bengals. The downright fabulous picture was posted yesterday on the blog Bossip, who incidentally have one of the finest taglines on the internet. Before you go jumping to conclusions regarding Kenny's sexual proclivities you might want to c...

Football Night In Baltimore
The Colts return to Baltimore face the Ravens in the city birthed them. They should expect to be greeted by large groups of confused men wearing purple camouflage and the women that love them because they don't know any better. Enjoy the game, I just realized the Wizards were playing tonight so I'v...

Overtime and Gambling Make Wonderful Bedfellows
Since there's way too much going on in the NFL for me to get caught up in wordy prose I'm going to switch it up to a bullet point format. It's creative, it's original, and nobody's ever done it before! • Why can't our country produce fifteen people capable of providing the play-by-play for football ...
