I can see why you'd be partial to Greg, Chris. Neither of you can finish a 40 yard dash. Read more

Even more disheartening are the recent photos revealing his stance on bunting. Read more

For the sake of journalistic integrity, I think everyone should know precisely how Greg Howard got that staph infection: Read more

This is a stupid situation all around and I'm still not sure which is more dumb: Read more

The CFL is much more refined nowadays ...great parity thru most of the league. It's a big-play league with a lot of exciting finishes. Being from Montreal I'm partial to the Als :). It's a different game (faster) than in the US which allows a different mix of athletes to flourish. The Grey Cup is also much older than… Read more

I love hearing about the history of Canadian football. I consider myself one of the only CFL fan in the DC area. I first got into the sport when I was flipping through the channels one night. I saw "Canadian Football" on one channel. My first thought was "Hah, Canadian football! This is kinda funny! I'll watch it." It… Read more

Really interesting piece. I researched and wrote a chapter about this subject for my recently published book about the 1981-83 Toronto Argonauts (Bouncing Back: From National Joke to Grey Cup Champs) but the chapter didn't fit so I cut it. In response to Dom's post, I have posted the chapter on my blog: http://bouncing… Read more

Incredible stuff. I might actually have to look through certain channels to get a copy of a CFL on NBC broadcast. Read more

who would feel it necessary to speak with anonymity about CFL negotiations from 31+ years ago? Read more

Boy, Dom sure loves covering the lesser forms of pro football. Read more

Great piece. Also great was this excellent one on the Baltimore CFL Colts/Stallions from The Classical. Read more

I read about this game in You're Okay, It's Just A Bruise by the former Raider team doctor, Rob Huzienga. Pretty frightening stuff if you care at all about your long-term health. Otherwise, just another day at the NFL office in the mid-80's. Read more

I remember this game vividly. It was like a street fight. I remember the play where McMahon's kidney was lacerated — a brutal hit. (You can see it at 4:20 [yeah, bro!] of the video, if the time-anchor doesn't work.) His head gets whipped back violently when he gets hit — it makes you wince just watching it.*

Willie and I were good friends in college, haven't seen him since but he was a heck of a basketball player and a great guy. I have no idea what was in his mind the night of this shot, he never told me the story but I saw him play a lot of basketball games and he was a star and a clutch player. Would always want him… Read more

The Pirates have a winning season and Dom leaves? Who the fuck is going to post Pittsburgh jagoffery on this website? Read more

Congrats on the new gig. Read more

On any number of Saturdays in Jan/Feb you can catch two or three live college games in Philly in a day. A Palestra/Drexel doubleheader is a short walk. Or Villanova at the Wells Fargo Center then a 30 min train ride to the Liacouras Center for a Temple game. Read more
