Damn good piece of writing on Bernard Hopkins.

Read that yesterday and immediately began reassessing my principles and priorities.

All the years guys like Iverson and Derrick Coleman were in Philly, wish they would have let Hopkins feel their ribs and give them some of his sage advice.

Go Bernard this Saturday against a daunting foe.

Memo to Patriots: wear the white unis at home today and make the Broncos wear their orange.

This was certainly an impressive drive by Seattle, even against the Raiders.

wut?

Is that a typo, or is there some penalty-specific reason you could have a 160 yard drive?

There's a lot of automation in those and sometimes it goes wrong. Today on a long incompletion from Matt Moore, Mike Wallace was credited with a catch for minus 41 yards.

Pfft. That's nothing.

I've see Bo Jackson run a single play for 160 yards.

Wait... So people complain to the government about something, the government says "You're right to complain, that thing violates regulations," and the violator gets to sue the people who complained?

The Washington Football Team have started doing their own jokes now - on the way to the game yesterday their two team buses crashed. Into each other.

Special Agent Frank Horrigan can't come out of retirement and do something about the ownership of that Washington franchise?
