Entire Wedding Party Wearing Ravens Jerseys: Not sure if I'd go this far, but here's a video of an entire wedding party wearing Baltimore Ravens jerseys. The bride has on a Joe Flacco #5 jersey, while the groom sports a Ray Lewis jersey. Complete with the groom imitating Lewis' pregame dance. No confirmation whether Kyle Boller caught the bouquet.

F-bomb gets dropped at end of Richmond vs. Villanova telecast: Funny video clip of the ending of the Villanova/Richmond game (Villanova won 21-20), where someone (not sure who) calls the Richmond kicker a "bum" then says "just end the effing game." The game was carried by Comcast, and seems to be legit. Video is NSFW for the f-bomb.

ESPN's Steve Phillips caught in affair with 22-year-old production assistant: Recently revealed that ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips had an affair with a 22-year-old production assistant, who then allegedly went all "Fatal Attraction" on him after the breakup. Phone calls, a graphic letter (with a vivid description of Phillips' crotch), and even a fake Facebook account to get family info from Phillips' kid. Weird stuff.

Sources: Shanahan turned down Redskins coaching job: According to a report on Fanhouse, the Washington Redskins tried to hire Mike Shanahan to replace Jim Zorn, but the former Broncos coach refused. However, the "sources" also said that Shanahan did not rule out reconsidering the offer in the offseason. Apparently Shanahan turned down the offer because he believes that there's very little he could do to reverse the Skins fortunes at this stage of the season, and that mid-season coaching changes rarely work. Why doesn't Dan Snyder just fire Zorn and get it over with.

For being done he had seven catches for well over 100 yards today.
Umm...Owens had 3 catches for 27 yards. And a few drops too. Just sayin'.

Being a Bills fan, I actually feel sorry for TO. This offense is pathetic, the QB is terrible (Edwards...and I don't think Fitzpatrick will be any better), and the coach is a moron. Plus the Buffalo media puts a negative spin on something he says which is not the least bit controversial, then pile on him when he doesn't say anything at all. Granted, over his career he's been a monumental prick, but in Buffalo he's been fine. And at 35 he's still got plenty in the tank. Oh, and the Romo thing...it was the group of receivers complaining about Romo zeroing in on Witten all the time. It only became "news" because Owens was part of that group.

I used to love watching Fleury play, but I always thought there was something behind the way he played, with such a huge chip on his shoulder. When Sheldon Kennedy came out and spoke about Graham James, it was pretty easy to figure out Fleury probably suffered the same abuse as Kennedy did. Too bad Theo couldn't stick with the Flames this year...would've been a great story.

Yeah, to tell you the truth kerrycindy, I forgot about Bum's kid there in Dallas. I'm probably like most people...Wade's just keeping the seat warm for Garrett. But I can totally see Jerruh Jones and his checkbook making a run at a Shanahan, or Gruden, or Holmgren, or (insert unemployed big name coaching prospect here)...

I totally agree with you BoKnows. I think Shanahan knows there's going to be a lot of opportunities in the offseason (Buffalo, Tennessee, Cleveland, Washington, etc.) that he wants to wait and get the most cash and the best situation. And that probably doesn't include Dan Snyder in any way, shape for form.

It sounds though like Mangini is going with Anderson next week for sure...and probably the rest of the year

I'm going to say no. The only rider in his contract is an additional $11 million if he takes 70% of the snaps...which ain't gonna happen sitting on the bench. If he gets traded, his new team would have to pay him only $2.08 million (providing he doesn't reach the 70% of the snaps) with a $700,000 bonus. Fairly cheap really, but who would want a guy who's 1-5 and lost his starting job to Derek Anderson (2 of 17 for 23 yards, one INT, and a 15.1 passer rating)?

Cal Running Back Hurt on Touchdown Flight
Oxygen is usually just a precaution. His arms going rigid meant he was knocked right out for a bit. Glad he's ok, but that's two concussions in the past week...not good for the noggin.
