Former ESPN Outdoors Producer: "Most Of The People I've Met From The NRA Don't Believe The Bullshit They're Selling"
For several years I worked for the now defunct ESPNOutdoors.com and on a number of ESPN Outdoors TV shows.

Floyd Mayweather Bet $100,000 On The Warriors Last Night, According To Jarrett Jack's Postgame Interview
The post-game interview that CSN's Jim Barnett conducted with Jarrett Jack was dragging on a little.

Braylon Edwards Is Headed Back To The Jets, For Some Reason
Remember last week, when Braylon Edwards said some nasty things about the New York Jets' management when he took to Twitter to defend Mark Sanchez? I believe he referred to those "calling the shots" as "idiots." Surely, the Jets wouldn't want anything to do with a guy like that....

Good News, Mark Sanchez: You Still Have One Fan In The NFL. Bad News: It's Braylon Edwards.

Philadelphia Eagles' Line Coaches Jim Washburn And Howard Mudd Were Apparently Dicks To Everyone
After suffering their eighth straight loss last night, the Philadelphia Eagles tossed defensive line coach Jim Washburn. Washburn was brought in only for his "Wide 9" scheme—hell, they signed the now-crazypants Jason Babin just to help the formation succeed—but since Babin's gone and Andy Reid need...

Jim Schwartz's Illegal Challenge Doubled The Texans' Chances Of Winning The Game

Just because voting is subjective does not mean voters can't be wrong.
