Colts 23, Vikings 20: The Game In One GIF
Hey, Andrew Luck was pretty accurate, and drove the Colts down far enough down the field for an Adam Vinatieri field goal with eight seconds left in a very well-choreographed drive. And Christian Ponder was accurate too: 27 for 35 for 245 yards and two touchdowns....
Giants 41, Bucs 34: The Game In Two GIFs
This wound up being a wild one—32 points scored in the fourth quarter alone, 25 of those by the Giants, who trailed 24-13 at the half. This was a fantasy football wet dream, too. Eli threw for over 500 yards and three touchdowns (three interceptions, though); 199 of those yards went to Nicks....

Why Did Lance Armstrong Tweet Out The Cell Phone Number Of Some Random Canadian Dude?
We've all seen it by now: Lance Armstrong's odd tweet, containing what looks to be his cell phone number. We figured it was the same old, same old—a direct message, mistakenly broadcast to the world. Annoying, in that he'd probably need to change his number, but funny for the rest of us....
