Suggs calls Bayless a douchebag (video)

The Baltimore Ravens lost the AFC Championship game on Sunday in heartbreaking fashion to the New England Patriots. Down by just three points, Lee Evans dropped a game-winning TD pass and then kicker Billy Cundiff blew a 32-yard field goal. So, one could imagine that guys like Terrell Suggs might not be in the best [...]

Hey Schefter, stop suggesting trades

We understand that ESPN’s Adam Schefter is not just throwing out fake NFL trade rumors. On Thursday, he suggested some trades that would make sense for certain teams. We thought he made it clear that he didn’t say these would happen, but just that he thought they made sense. But, here’s the problem. Most people [...]

Hank says you can’t fire me ’cause I quit…even though he got fired

By now, you’ve all heard about Hank Williams, Jr. going on Fox and Friends in order to…wait, why was he on there again? He talked about Monday Night Football, but was that the real reason he was on there? We aren’t saying one way or another, just curious why Fox would have a guy on [...]

Foster won’t play Week 1?

Houston Texans RB Arian Foster has had some hamstring issues this training camp. Just when he got healthy, he tweaked it again. And while he doesn’t like that people care more about their fantasy teams than they do about his personal health and well being, that’s just kind of the way it goes. Foster recently [...]

Mariotti officially charged with three felonies

Remember when Jay Mariotti was on television with ESPN? Remember how he used to be holier than thou and talk down to everyone else? Remember when he used to write and talk about what losers these professional athletes were that hit their wives? Yeah, he’s officially been charged with three felonies relating to spats with [...]

2011 version: The ugliest men in professional sports

Mel Kiper Jr:  Nobody in the world has more of a perfectly-parted widow’s peak than Mel Kiper Jr.  On varying days, the world’s most famous mock-drafter has somewhat of a poof, resembling a male-version of The Jersey Shore’s Snooki.  The comparisons with the little Italian ball of roundness doesn’t end there.  Both have very strong chins.  [...]

Surprise! Asomugha is a free agent

This is a shocker. Any team out there looking for a cornerback this offseason will be thrilled to know that they have a shot at the best one in the league. Yes, the Oakland Raiders’ Nnamdi Asomugha is better than Darrelle Revis. ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that, due to a little known clause in [...]

ESPN looking into allegations of Kiper-Wichard relationship

We mentioned earlier the story in Sports Illustrated where former agent Josh Luchs told the magazine tons of stuff that many people would probably prefer that others didn’t know. This includes, but is not limited to, paying college athletes. There was also a part in there where he talks about ESPN’s draft guru Mel Kiper, [...]

Mariotti pleads no contest

Remember Jay Mariotti? The uppity, holier-than-thou curmudgeon who does little for the sports landscape in America other than piss off just about every single fan? Remember when he got arrested on domestic violence charges? Well, according to the LA Times, Mariotti pleaded no contest to a single misdemeanor charge of domestic violence. In exchange for [...]

Mariotti done at ESPN after domestic incident?

It must be noted that we never truly know the people that we watch on television. Guys who come across as stand-up dudes are often exposed as awful frauds. And some times, there are people that seem like arrogant dicks, but it’s just their schtick and they actually aren’t bad guys. But, didn’t you always [...]

Owens blames ESPN for his unemployment

Terrell Owens is currently without an NFL team. He has played with the San Francisco 49ers, Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys and Buffalo Bills since 1996. So right there you can probably scratch off four teams from the list of potential landing spots.

Dwayne Bowe talks about groupies

Kansas City Chiefs WR Dwayne Bowe has showed flashes of incredible ability since coming into the league three years ago. He’s also shown the ability to be a Grade A chowderhead. Recently, he told ESPN the Magazine about he and some of his teammates roll on road trips. “My rookie year, we were playing in [...]

Phillies working on a deal for Werth?

I just got a phone call from Perry (we’re a team) who was listening to Philadelphia’s ESPN radio affiliate as he is known to do from time to time. Mike Missanelli, who hosts the drive time show, said that Philadelphia Phillies hitting coach Milt Thompson said last night that the team was working on a [...]

Hasselbeck apologies to Erin Andrews

This isn’t really sports, but it involves hot broads who have a tertiary relation to sports. So apparently, on Tuesday’s “The View” (which I’m sure you all saw) Elisabeth Hasselbeck criticized Erin Andrews’ costume on “Dancing with the Stars,” because this is what cutting-edge journalistic television roundtables discuss. Hasselbeck said that Andrews was “wearing next [...]

ESPN “Outside the Lines” has more JaMarcus ripping

We didn’t happen to catch Sunday’s ESPN “Outside the Lines” when they did a piece on Oakland Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell. Thankfully for us, Vittorio Taful of the San Francisco Chronicle did, and he gave us the highlights. -Former Raider Jeremy Newberry said Russell “looked like a lineman – he was way out of shape.” [...]

Adam Schefter chokes on it

Our buddy JA thinks this is hysterical and we like easy ways to add content, so this is a win-win. ESPN’s Adam Schefter tries to give a report about A.J. Feeley signing with the Carolina Panthers last year and he gets all choked up. He continues to choke and choke and hack and spit. This [...]

The emails to “The Dan Patrick Show” regarding Andrews started out as sexual in nature, but then turned violent. According to TMZ, one reads, “Somebody should shoot her in the face.” [...]

Erin Andrews calls 911 on some dude

Our pals at TMZ (they actually know who we are) have learned that ESPN’s Erin Andrews called 911 on Wednesday night to report a suspicious person outside of her Georgia home. It turns out, it was a member of the media trying to get an interview with Erin, presumably to talk about the peeping Tom [...]
