SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

The Browns tried a trick play where Johnny Manzeil walks off the field and yells at coaches, but is really a wideout.

Next I'm looking forward to the "just hand me the ball, center, and I'll mark off 10 yards like a ref before -- PYSCH! -- I'm really a runner!"

It's probably the same injury that took out Bill Gramtica.

That was the most Lions thing to happen since the no-win season.

It's AFL Grand Final this Saturday Down Under. So rather than tell you about how awesome the Sydney Swans are, and knowing that lots of you septics only watch the Superbowl for the half time show, here's a summary of the worst game day entertainment at previous Grand Finals.

These things happen every so often, and I always wonder if the ligament was going to tear on the next play, had there been no celebration. It's an injury I would suffer, and would go well with my 'foot in mouth' disease.

Incredible save by Super King (by way of New Zealand) Brendon McCullum in today's Champions League T20 match. Thanks in part to McCullum's bat, the Chennai Super Kings scored almost 250 runs in a twenty20 match.

It says that video is "private" and won't show for me.

Edit: Found another version.

Edit #2: I'll be wearing my #7 MS Dhoni Super Kings jersey tomorrow for sure.
