Josh Norman Clarifies Comments About Dez Bryant, Is A Weenie<em></em>

Josh Norman Got Himself A New Arch Enemy In Dez Bryant
I think it’s fair to say that the guy who came out of the Great Football Beef of 2015 looking the most like a hothead was Odell Beckham Jr. But yesterday’s game between Washington and Dallas, which included Norman getting into it with Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant during and after the game, was a...

Like The Rest Of Us, John Wall Wants Nothing To Do With Wizards Games [Update]
This afternoon, John Wall caught a $25,000 fine after he was ejected for bumping into an official on Monday night.

Todd Graham Confronts "Chickenshit" Mike Leach During Post-Game Handshake
The Pac-12 fined Washington State head coach Mike Leach $10,000 earlier this week for claiming Arizona State steals signals from opposing teams—something Sun Devils head coach Todd Graham admitted to last year.
