Oregon was engaged in a bizarre game on Saturday night in Knoxville. The Ducks seemed to be spooked by the lightning that delayed the contest and the noisy crowd in Neyland Stadium. They were down 13-3 most of the first half before going into …
When I talk about the top conferences in college football, I talk about the SEC, Big 12, Big Ten, and Pac-10. The Big East is left out of my discussions, the ACC is hardly referenced, and Boise State and the Mountain West are mentioned casually. …

It was a monstrous season opener for the Houston Texans who beat the Colts for just the second time in franchise history. Houston got out to a 13-0 lead, extended it to 27-10 in the fourth quarter, and held on for a 34-24 win. Many people predicted …
Miami Hurricanes quarterback Jacory Harris made waves on the net by wearing Oakland Raiders overalls earlier this week. Now he’s captured our attention with another choice of clothing. Preparing for Miami’s game in Columbus, Harris walked …

Prior to the Saints/Vikings season opener on Thursday night, the players gathered on their respective sidelines and held a finger in the air to show a sign of solidarity in the face of a labor dispute. The goal was for the players to get the fans on …
I was incredibly impressed by Tim Tebow who hit 12 out of 15 pitches he saw for home runs during a random batting practice session in May. I was equally surprised by the stellar display we heard Packers first-round pick Bryan Bulaga put on at Brewers …
So Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was involved in a pretty major car crash on his way to the team’s facilities Thursday morning. Reports are that Brady is fine and was able to practice during the day, but we know the people from the other car …
Football season is back which means it’s time for four months of anchor Chris Berman’s Sunday NFL Countdown and fastest two minutes in football! Before you get too giddy, we’re here to warn you that the Berman you may be expecting …
There was major news over the weekend in St. Louis when it was reported that center fielder Colby Rasmus had requested a trade earlier in the year. Rasmus has been unhappy with his role in the organization for a few years now and wants to go …
