Triple Coverage? Not A Problem For Brian Tyms
OK, so the Bills' "triple coverage" is more like "1.5vle coverage."...
Tom Brady Rolled His Ankle But He's Good To Go
When Tom Brady was added to the Patriots' injury report on Friday, it seemed like another serious factor to consider in this whole What's wrong with Tom Brady?/Oh nothing actually debate of the last few weeks. Or at least some patented Bill Belichick tomfoolery:...
Rugby Somehow Gets More Brutal-er
It took Wigan's Ben Flower two minutes into today's Super League Grand Final against St Helens to be sent off. The reason? This punch to Lance Hohaia. He earned that red card. Here's the video:...
Football Team Rushes For 600 Yards, Scores 78 Points, Still Loses
Last night's Pennsylvania high school game between Warren and Meadville finished with a 79-78 final score, in regulation. Losers Meadville racked up 799 total yards—600 of them on the ground!—and couldn't top their hosts, who came into the game with a 1-5 record....
Here's A 6-Foot-11 High School Quarterback
Logan Routt plays quarterback for Cameron High School (W.V.), and, oh yeah, he's 6-foot-11. That part's important....
Man With Patriots Helmet Tattoo Arrested On Synthetic Weed Charges
You may remember Victor Thompson, the man with a Patriots helmet tattooed on his head, from back in 2012. I interviewed him a few days before the Patriots played the Giants in Super Bowl XLVI, since he lived roughly 20 minutes from me in New Hampshire. Thompson was in jail at the time for willful co...
We Have A Halloween Cereal Problem
It's Halloween season, now, and if you've taken your keen consumer eye into certain participating supermarket chains, you may have noticed the (for a limited time only!) return of the familiar monster-themed General Mills cereals of yore: Count Chocula, Franken-Berry, and Boo-Berry....
Sweet ESPN Martial Arts Broadcast A Throwback To Network's Early Days
If you're old enough to remember any of the 80's, you know that ESPN wasn't always the home to 24-hour jabbering analysts and NFL talk shows. In its more fledgling days, the WWL aired whatever content to which it could obtain rights; thus, Americans were introduced to wacky hat-wearing and fingerg...
This Is The Strangest Kickoff You Will Ever See
Last week's high school football battle between DeSoto County and Bayshore High in Bradenton, Fla., featured a kickoff taken from the receiving team's own 15-yard line. If that sounds ridiculous, just watch the video, which comes to us courtesy WWSB in Sarasota....
Hunter Pence Slams Into Fence To Rob Jayson Werth Of A Hit
It's not easy playing right field at AT&T Park. The wall is 24 feet high (in honor of Willie Mays), and it is made up of three different surfaces: brick, fence, and padding. A right fielder trying to play the wall has to figure out which surface the ball is likely to hit, and how hard (and where) it...
Florida Teammates Get Into Fight Over Cleats; Police Called
Florida quarterback Skyler Mornhinweg—yes, son of Marty—and a teammate fought each other Monday night at Florida's stadium, allegedly over a pair of cleats. Things got stupid and nasty enough that the cops had to be called. ...

Dodgers Pitcher J.P. Howell Turns Amazing Double Play
With the Cardinals looking to stretch their 3–1 lead in the bottom of the 8th inning, Dodgers pitcher J.P. Howell pulled off a remarkable stop to turn the double play and get out of the inning. With the bases loaded Howell somehow managed to snag Kolten Wong's grounder, throw home and get a double...
ESPN Reporter Asks Why Titans Aren't Pissed Off, Pisses Off Titan
The Titans blew a 28-3 lead in a 29-28 loss to the Browns Sunday, and according to Justin Walters, who shot the video, ESPN Titans writer Paul Kuharsky openly wondered why players didn't seem mad about the collapse. Linebacker Wesley Woodyard gave him what he wanted....

Report: Aaron Dobson Benched After He "Mouthed Off" To Josh McDaniels
The fact that second-year WR Aaron Dobson has suited up just once this season is extra-weird in light of the Patriots being woefully short on receivers. A Boston Globe report today may answer that question; it says Dobson has been benched the last two weeks because he's run afoul of offensive coordi...
Here's Floyd Mayweather Being A Dick To A Woman In A Barbershop
Floyd Mayweather is one of the very worst people walking this earth. This new video to pop up on YouTube is of Mayweather in a barbershop in London, getting into it with a woman who claims she doesn't know who he is because she doesn't follow boxing. Instead of being relieved someone doesn't know wh...
Wendy's Pulled Pork Cheese Fries Are The Saddest Meal
This is not really a review of the Wendy's Pulled Pork Cheese Fries; in order for it to function as a review, I would have to go to a Wendy's location and say, aloud, to a Wendy's employee, "I will have the Pulled Pork Cheese Fries," and I can't even rehearse that without my hands literally punching...
Bill Belichick Really Just Wants To Talk About Cincinnati
Bill Belichick was in excellent press-conference form two days after the Chiefs demolished the Patriots. Reporters kept asking him about the Patriots' roster, Tom Brady's age, and concerns for the team's current state. Belichick wasn't interesting in talking about anything else but Sunday night's ...
