The Internet was on fire the past two days with everyone's take on whether or not Jay Cutler pussed out on Sunday. Whatever. I'm over it. His teammates are rather adamant that he didn't bail on them, and this story is already played out.

Last week, Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs opined that the Ravens-Steelers Divisional Playoff matchup would be "Armageddon," and he wasn't making reference to Steve Buscemi asteroid movies.

Predictably, everyone is up in arms over New York Jets strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi tripping Dolphins gunner Nolan Carroll during Sunday's game, and with pretty good reason. As far a cheap shots go, that is as despicable as they come. A lot of people are even saying that ...

The look on Willie Veasley's face after Monday night's championship game loss to Duke says it all. Actually, you can't see his face, which says even more. It was one of the most heart-wrenching losses that one could experience as a player or fan, and I don't say that just ...

For the Chicago Bears, the NFL Draft started midnight EST Thursday. Yesterday, I called my friends who are Bears fans - like myself - to remind them of that fact.
Without a first or second round pick because of the Jay Cutler and Gaines Adams (RIP) trades, the Bears really only ...
