It’s days like these that make sports such a great escape. In NFL news, as ballsofsteelandfury brought you earlier, the owners voted at the annual meeting today to: Ban all forms of chop block. I’m stunned how Tom Brady Robert Kraft let this pass. Keep the PAT at the 15 yard line. A “horse-collar tackle” has

I’m glad to see we all survived the weekend. Myself, on Friday I organized a pub crawl of some fine craft breweries before the final WHL game of the season – and possibly forever – in Vancouver. I Instagrammed the evening to allow my wife to observe that I wasn’t

Boy, do I need weekend liquor something fierce. Free agency: not much to report or follow after today. But: In an attempt to prove Bleacher Report correct, the Browns released Karlos Dansby and Dwayne Bowe. Chris Long chose the darkness over the light, and signed with the Patriots. Casey Hayward left the Packers to

Possibly the most unproductive work week in North America kicks off tonight. HUZZAH! But first, what brings us here: Free Agency: the thrill is gone after the first week. Not much left to cover until the draft in 43 days. Still, CJ Anderson - staying in Denver! Now he'll just have to figure

Free agency – hungover from the weekend edition. It sure seems like everybody in charge binge-drank last week, because the signing news today sure seems like someone is holding my hair while I puke: The day’s highlight is Eric Weddle signing with the Ravens, in their attempt to have a more hirsute,

A new day brings new Free Agency news. Let’s unwrap this fish and see what’s happened today: In what nfl.com calls "Heath Relief" (ugh), the Steelers signed former Charger Ladarius Green.

Today was the first day of free agency, or the good riddance, post-Peyton era if you’re DeAngelo Williams. Good on him for refusing to apologize. At least now we know who’s in Peter King’s doghouse heading into the 2016 season, and not just for picking on Pete Prisco. Cam Newton

"Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no fibs." After last night, the Ninth Commandment is going to be getting strained pretty seriously, as opponents try to run down the leaders. AMC might as well keep showing the "Godfather" movies on repeat. Hillary sure seems like she's going to pull

Oh yeah, it’s March 1st! Super Tuesday!! Time to rock out with your caucus out!!! Eleven states with 25% of the available delegates are choosing their party's nominee tonight. If you live in one of those states, you might as well give up on network television, because that shit's getting preempted. That
