The Bengals beat the Browns 27-17 in their season opener Sunday in Cleveland. Cincy blew a 13-0 lead and trailed 17-13 in the fourth quarter before Bruce Gradkowski hit rookie A.J. Green for the go-ahead score (video here). It was Green’s first …
The Eagles beat the Rams 31-13 Sunday in their season opener. The final score indicates it was a blowout, but the game was actually close the first half. A big reason why the Eagles didn’t run away with things early is because of the pressure …
Teams and players were all about commemorating the 10th anniversary of 9/11 on the first Sunday of the NFL season. We had players like Lance Briggs wear 9/11 tribute shoes. Then we had guys like Darnell Dockett and Antonio Garay who wore their …
UPDATE: The play in question was reviewed after the game and USC was given the touchdown. The final score was changed to 23-14 as it should have been. The penalty applied to the bench for committing unsportsmanlike conduct, making it a dead ball …
Michigan hosted a night game for the first time in its school’s football history Saturday when they took on Notre Dame. Both teams wore throwback jerseys to celebrate the occasion, but they weren’t the only ones wearing old school duds. …
Apparently Auburn’s eagle “Spirit” had a few too many pops before the game, because the drunken baldy collided with a luxury box window during his pregame flight. Video: Perhaps a metaphor for Auburn’s season through two …
Randy Moss decided to retire from the NFL after not receiving an offer of interest during the offseason. We said there was no way he was retiring, particularly because it wasn’t on his terms. A recent report said Moss would want to return to …

Novak Djokovic takes the game seriously when he’s in the middle of a tennis match. When he’s done playing, he becomes a showman. His antics have included eating blades of grass on the court, tapping reporters in the nuts, and doing …
The Colts learned this week that four-time MVP quarterback Peyton Manning would miss 2-3 months after undergoing a third neck surgery. Even if he does return this season, which I don’t believe will happen, the Colts will play most of the year …
Novak Djokovic put together an impressive comeback in the semifinals of the U.S. Open Saturday. The top overall seed came back from down two sets to none against Roger Federer to win in five sets. He fought off two match points after being down in …
The Dodgers beat the Giants 2-1 in the opener of a three-game series Friday night. Clayton Kershaw went eight innings of three-hit ball, walking one and striking out nine for the win. Tim Lincecum matched him by allowing just one run over eight …
It’s not enough for Derek Jeter to get his own line of gear at MLB.com commemorating his 3,000 hits. It’s not enough that his Yankees teammates commissioned a statue celebrating the milestone. The Angels decided they had to get in on the …
Phillies utility man Pete Orr avoided a potentially dangerous situation in Milwaukee Friday night during the customary sausage race. His nifty moves allowed him to avoid contact with one of the sausages in an anti-Randall Simon way. I’m …
Tigers TV analyst Rod Allen got himself into trouble again with an offensive comment. You may recall that the former outfielder said the Tigers were going to need a lot of rice and beans in their postgame spread two months ago because of a …
