So just where do the Nets ...

While the Detroit Lions suffered arguably their most humiliating loss in franchise history on Sunday, there could be more of the same in the works for the beleaguered team from a beleaguered town. In the wake of the team's 17-10 loss to the (at the time) winless St. Louis Rams, ...

The NFL is bigger and more popular than ever.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean the league is better.
There appears to be a large number of just awful teams this season. I’m talking absolutely putrid. Like teams you know are going to lose all week long.
My roommate relayed a conversation he had ...

The Detroit Lions blow. I know, shocking. On Sunday, the Lions lost for the 19th consecutive time. The streak is the second-longest in NFL history behind only the Buccaneers' historic futility in the late 1970s.
ESPN's "NFL Live," put up the above nifty little graphic illustrating the Lions' continued failures. Chopin's "Funeral ...

It hasn't been a bright 12 months in the Motor City. General Motors went belly up, the city's mayor resigned amidst an avalanche of controversies and Robocop never showed up.
The city is so far in the dumps that Thomas Jane's fictional enormous penis in HBO's "Hung" is Detroit's crowning achievement ...

No this is not just an excuse to throw up a picture of 2009's Miss California Carrie Prejean. Sure she's gorgeous and is in the news after totally flubbing her answer to a question about gay marriage at this weekend's Miss USA Pageant, but did you know she's also a ...

Way back in '08, we here at Rumors and Rants proclaimed it the Greatest Year in Sports History.
I know what you are thinking -- big deal. So did Sports Illustrated and ESPN and everyone else who makes widespread proclamations. Only we made the call in July. Basically, when something's up, ...

After what was arguably the most interesting final Sunday in NFL history -- The Big Lead at least had a premonition of this awesomeness, but it played out far wackier than any of us could have anticipated -- and a fairly decent Wild Card weekend, we're down the final eight playoff contestants. ...

So Detroit Lions fans, it was a bad year. No shit, Sherlock, I know.
Usually I wouldn’t give a damn about the hopes and dreams of Lions fans. I’m a Bears fan. Y’all can really burn in hell for all I could care. That’s what Barry Sanders and Herman Moore will ...
