So lets see... Norv Turner’s stock is surging and due a contract extension in San Diego, regardless if they win a super bowl or not. The fact is they are a solid team with or without LT.

Bleacher Report —
Authority: 771
You sometimes truly hate to be a fan. Other times, you wish you could be an owner. On Sunday, I wish I could have been a player...and after being thrown out of a game for a ticky-tack penalty, I would have knocked a ref from the game. Lets recap. Oakland had started the game out nicely, was down only 6-10 when ...1 day ago -

Bleacher Report —
Authority: 771
To some, it has to be the dream job. You get paid to play football, and make millions of dollars a week. The only catch is, your job primarily consists of being a cheerleader on the sideline or during the weekly practice, imitating the opposing teams star wideout.

The General’s NBA Shakedown…December 23, 2009
GenXXL —
Authority: 134
I want to break the NBA into a few categories that I think best describes where all the teams are. This is the best way to get similar teams into similar groups even if they don’t have similar records. For example, just because the Celtics are 21-5 doesn’t mean they belong in the same group as the Lakers (and ...5 days ago -
Finding genius coaches should be easier
Bay Area Sports Guy —
Authority: 118
It used to be different. Al Davis was four steps ahead of everyone, and that was just in terms of jersey marketing. Bill Walsh was the most calm, lucid, normal Godfather in the history of NFL coaches. Tony LaRussa completely changed the way we think about bullpens. Roger Craig taught his pitchers (and perhaps too many ...6 days ago -

Bleacher Report —
Authority: 771
Being a fan of the Raiders has not been a fun task, these last several seasons. Poor drafts, blowouts, the occasional annoying prediction from fans or "specialists" who know everything gets to you after a while.

Authority: 420
It’s round #2 for these teams. The first meeting, a Broncos 23-3 win, took place in week 3 - what seems like ages ago.

Bleacher Report —
Authority: 771
Seeing Al Davis these days is similar to seeing a ghost. Al seems to be in hiding, not wanting to deal with media types until he is good and ready. Sure, he shows up to the games, but as far as hearing his thoughts about the recent "Message to Al" campaign, forget about it. However, Al Davis, in conjunction with ...1 week ago -

This is a little late, but my apathetic coma just subsided. Yesterday, the Bears cut linebacker Cato June (we hardly knew ye!) and promoted tackle James Marten from the practice squad to the 53-man roster.
