data-mm-id=”_y916sfv6q”>The NFL is in the midst of releasing their final players for their 100 All-Time Team. On Friday night, they revealed the 10 quarterbacks who would be a part of the team. There were the usual suspects; Joe Montana, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning jump to mind as obvious choices. As has been the case with these lists, there was much controversy over the selections. But this position grouping, in particular, left out one big name, and thus the question is posed: Was Drew Brees snubbed in the making of this list?Other than the three mentioned above, the quarterbacks chosen were: Otto Graham, Johnny Unitas, Sammy Baugh, John Elway, Roger Staubach, Brett Favre, and Dan Marino. Graham, Unitas, and Baugh all played before 1970, and the argument to include (or not to inclu…
data-mm-id=”_qfxie3bjp”>Janoris Jenkins was cut by the New York Giants on Friday, two days after directing an offensive word towards a fan on Twitter. I only can do my job.. retard https://t.co/hYDVcbk9sd— JackRabbit2.0 (@JjenkzLockdown) December 11, 2019After a talk with Giants coach Pat Shurmer, Jenkins offered a sort of apology that rationalized his use of the word. First on Twitter and then at his locker. As far as apologies go, this one seemed pretty hollow, with NJ.com calling it "phony" and the New York Post calling it "half-hearted." Judge for yourself. Via ESPN:””Where I’m from, we use all kind of words for slang. If it offends anybody, I’m sorry,” Jenkins said. “It’s a culture that I grew up in where I’m from, you know what I’m saying. We use all kinds o…
data-mm-id=”_tj8vrxed1″>Fanless hot dog eating competition is a strong contender for one of those "write the saddest story possible with only five words" contests you see online. But only if you want it to be. They say every dark cloud has a silver lining and cracks only exist to let the light in. Life finds a way to forage on even in the most indomitable circumstances. So Nathan's Famous and ESPN will join forces to broadcast the traditional Fourth of July event next week, enacting social-distancing measures and going forward with a slimmed-down field. Richard Shea, a more perfect carnival barker than Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith combined, will be there. He won't be giving voice to overdramatic words at the corner of Stillwell and Surf per usual, but his spiri…
data-mm-id=”_cu718ajoc”>Jaylen Brown entered the NBA as an uber-athlete out of Cal who could jump over anybody, but that was about it. After two-and-a-half seasons, Brown has turned himself into a steady 3-point shooter with an improving handle and plus defensive abilities. Brown has also revealed a penchant for remembering when anybody has doubted his abilities. Brown shared one such tale over the weekend when he spoke to University of Massachusetts students over Zoom. He was a member of Team USA's under-18 squad when he was a 17-year-old high school student. That team was coached by Billy Donovan, who was the head coach at the University of Florida at the time. According to Brown, he was toasting all of his opponents and didn't understand why Donovan wouldn't play him …
data-mm-id=”_db3zbhouq”>It is with a heavy heart that I must announce the Nets are at it again. Specifically, Kyrie Irving, who thought he could just release statements to the press rather than do the same media availability as everyone else in the league. The NBA fined Irving and the Nets $25,000 each for this stunt. Kyrie, in the most Kyrie way possible, responded to the fine on Instagram by quoting Malcolm X and saying this:”I pray we utilize the “fine money” for the marginalized communities in need, especially seeing where our world is presently. (I am) I am here for Peace, Love, and Greatness. So stop distracting me and my team, and appreciate the Art. We move different over here.
I do not talk to Pawns. My attention is worth more.

data-mm-id=”_39ephx7oc”>Noted New York Jets loyalist Mike Greenberg has seen enough. I mean, he saw enough last year too, but after the Jets' embarrassing 27-17 loss against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1, Greeny is ready to demote Adam Gase to the netherworlds of youth football coaching. Actually, on second thought, Greeny doesn't think that's low enough. According to him, Gase isn't qualified to coach a fifth-grade team. “Adam Gase IS the problem with the Jets!”@Espngreeny was FIRED UP this morning over how terrible the Jets looked yesterday. #KJZ #Greeny pic.twitter.com/CUP6WcyzQv— Keyshawn, JWill & Zubin (@KeyJayandZ) September 14, 2020While I love the image of Gase getting out-coached at the fifth-grade level, this simply isn't true. He's certa…
data-mm-id=”_cylqijm5y”>NFL Network reporter Kyle Brandt joined a growing chorus of people wondering if Tom Brady hates Nick Foles. The reasoning stems from Brady's decision to run off the field without shaking Foles' hand after the Bucs lost to the Bears in Week 5, but then joyfully embracing Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers after the Bucs beat Green Bay in Week 6. Brandt starts his segment by saying he thinks Brady might actually hate Foles because not only did Brady snub him this season, but he also didn't shake Foles' hand after the Eagles beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, Brady has shaken hands with every other quarterback the Bucs have faced this year except Foles. Good morning. I would like to know why Tom Brady hates Nick Foles… pic.twitter.…
data-mm-id=”_5713ffj9e”>The NFL is very close to nailing down their coveted 17th game of the regular season. With the players approving it in the new CBA, it is all but certain there will be 18 weeks and 17 games in the 2021 season according to Peter King. This means the Super Bowl will likely get pushed back a week to February 13, 2022. Here's how the 17th game will be scheduled according to King's latest Football Morning in America column. “When the NFL was choosing options, the formula that prevailed—follow me now—was AFC versus NFC, cross-conference matchup from two years ago, 2021 matchup based on 2020 standings. Now that you’re totally confused, here’s an example: The four AFC West teams played the four NFC North teams in 2019. In 2020, Kansas City finished in f…
data-mm-id=”_6zn3pi0sm”>Michigan State is the latest community to be ravaged by a mass shooting as a gunman opened fire on classrooms and the student union last night, killing three students and critically injuring five others. This is an entirely too predictable and commonplace occurrence in America, meaning it's been relegated to below-the-fold status on the New York Times' website. The outlet is providing live updates on the developing situation, though, with all the tact and humanity of the most tone-deaf AI service in existence. They have surveyed the dead bodies and emotionally broken student body and come up with this headline, somehow connecting what happened last night to the university's poor handling of the Larry Nassar scandal. Get fucked NYT you goddamn clow…
data-mm-id=”_icutm5lkx”>School is back in session which means high school football is returning around the country. South Oak Cliff and Duncanville, both defending Texas state champions, met on the SMU campus under the Friday night lights with Duncanville, the sixth ranked team in the nation, winning 34-13. And that's where this incident appears to be from.Two women got into it and it was more of a mismatch than the game. The one fan didn't even bother getting off her phone to throw the other woman about three rows and it somehow only got worse from there. The woman who appears to be the aggressor gets carried away by a friend who seems to literally laugh in her face. Then she somehow gets free and tries again with less cartoonish, but equally violent results.Lmao bruh she ha…
