For the record, the correct answer here is always one horse-sized duck. That big lug will lack any maneuverability whatsoever, and those tiny horses can pack a mean kick, man.

Jay Gruden’s Washington Redskins have lost two of their first three games this season. So we can safely assume his cats have had a few pretty rough weeks. Jay Gruden, life at home after a loss. “I yell at my cats to get out of my bed. They have these bells on them. And they […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are decimated by injuries at linebacker after Jarvis Jones landed on the short-term injured reserve following wrist surgery, and first-round pick Ryan Shazier will also miss time due to a sprained MCL. So to the surprise of absolutely no one James Harrison will be dusted off. The veteran and Steelers legend retired […]

We witnessed wild times again in Week 3. Quarterbacks caught passes, the New England Patriots looked ordinary against the Raiders, and the San Francisco 49ers didn’t score a point in the fourth quarter. Actually, that last thing is pretty normal now. 3: The amount of quarterbacks who caught passes. Well, it’s technically two because Johnny […]

Every week bones break and muscles rip around the NFL. We’ll take a look at the most significant injuries, and what happens next. For a sport with a whole lot of contact that can hurt quite a bit, it’s a cruel twist by the football gods that the worst injuries can often result from non-contact […]

Much like his quarterback (who has a chronic, and mentally crippling high five problem), Patriots owner Robert Kraft can’t get any of that sweet hand-slapping love.

The answer is “YES”, just maybe not for a long time. Last night Devin Hester didn’t look like a returner who has lost a few steps. Maybe he has, but when you were already about eight steps ahead of everyone else, charitably giving a few back doesn’t hurt too much. With his 62-yard punt return […]

If you own and maintain a chicken coop, you should be damn proud. It seems that for Titans quarterback Jake Locker, his tiny backyard chicken colony is both a source of serenity, and convenience. Quarterbacks usually have a weekly conference call with reporters who cover the team they’re set to play. For reasons that aren’t […]

For something to do with his suddenly free time (and presumably for some cash too), Josh Gordon started working at a local car dealership when his year-long suspension was first handed down. It’s since been reduced to 10 games after the NFL and NFLPA agreed on a new drug policy. That means Gordon is running […]

It’s never too early to talk about which head coach might not be gainfully employed for much longer. The equation is usually pretty simple. Owners like money, and to make the most sweet cash they need fans interested and engaged throughout the entire season. For that, winning needs to happen. A championship or two would […]

When you look at Nick Foles’ 2013 numbers, it doesn’t seem like they should be a real thing. And if there was any logic at all in this world, they wouldn’t exist. Yet there they are at any place which displays such numbers. Staring at you and beaming, telling you to call them a liar. […]

Brian Orakpo, DeAngelo Hall, and Stephen Bowen are three wild and crazy guys.

The NFL was a strange place in Week 2. The Cleveland Browns won a football game against an opponent that’s more than just respectable, and is downright good. The Seahawks pass defense looked oddly ordinary, the Bills haven’t lost yet, and Austin Davis went all Joe Montana on us in the fourth quarter of a […]

This is truly special and creative. James Jones is not a man who does things halfway. No, he’s mostly a man who says to himself “I’m going to do this horrible thing twice, and in a matter of seconds!” Then he does that thing, and it’s glorious… I want to know what went through James […]
