- If anyone knows a thing or two about being an immature, petulant, whining little man-child, it’s Terrell Owens. But it’s difficult to make a reasonable argument against Owens’ logic when he advised DeSean Jackson to watch Eagles games from home until he gets a new contract.
- Barry Cofield doesn’t like the way some of his former teammates have been treated by the Giants, many of whom either departed through free agency, or were released.
- It’s gone beyond a simple case of the injury bug for the Giants. Now it’s a full-scale viral infection, with the latest victim being starting middle linebacker Jonathan Goff.

- Like the twisted minds over at P.S.A.M.P, we thought the Troy Polamalu voodoo doll was the most evil creation the devil could send to this Earth. We’ve now discovered the Steelers Pillow Pets, and we’re bracing for the Apocalypse.
