[andrew8798]

According to FOX Philadelphia, Michael Vick's concussion symptoms are "getting worse."

Matt Forte (ankle) tells the Chicago Sun-Times that he will play versus the Seahawks in Week 13.

We have a new leader for dumbest sports article of the year.

San Francisco’s Colin Kaepernick is going to be a big-time NFL quarterback. That must make the guys in San Quentin happy.

Approximately 98.7 percent of the inmates at California’s state prison have tattoos. I don’t know that as fact, but I’ve watched enough “Lockup” to know it’s close to accurate.

I’m also pretty sure less than 1.3 percent of NFL quarterbacks have tattoos. There’s a reason for that.

Those fans Bart Scott was making fun of? He totally wasn't making fun of them.

"I have a tremendous respect for fans and what they do and the sacrifices that they make," Scott said. "And I’m aware of that. I was asked about certain things that were said, which I didn’t know, of course, I’m going to protect my team and my organization. I understand they pay good money and all that. I’m well aware of that."

As for his assertions that those same fans would be picked last in dodgeball or unable to finish a high school football practice, Scott backtracked.

"That’s a generalization, I’m sure there are some great athletes," Scott said.

Somewhere in Bristol, Colin Cowherd is gnashing his teeth in anger, wondering how he didn't make this point first.

My team has no shot of having a running game the rest the season with Cedric Benson having undergone surgery yesterday.

To be fair................he wasn't going to get there to begin with, if those few games he played showed anything.

Rush Limbaugh under a new alias.

[andrew8798]

Raiders OC Greg Knapp confirmed that Marcel Reece to be used primarily as a halfback as opposed to a fullback in Week 13 versus the Browns.

In addition to sustaining a left high-ankle sprain at Philadelphia in Week 12, Jonathan Stewart also re-injured his right ankle.

[Cyno]

Confirmed that Vick didn't pass the concussion tests. Foles will start once more at QB.

Demarcus Ware is going to have fun on Sunday.

[Deleted]

Did the Saints forgot that there's a game tonight?

[StuntGranny®]

I've said it before, I'll say it again: Matt Ryan is as overrated as it gets.

I haven't heard anything about Vick's symptoms getting worse. In fact, his concussion symptoms supposedly are gone. The problem is that he still isn't at the base line that was sent before the season began.

[StuntGranny®]

If the Saints end up winning this game, I hope Falcons fans will finally stop pretending this team is any different than it usually is.

And as soon as I post that, Drew Brees throws ANOTHER interception.

Also, I don't know who the guy is commentating with Blackridge, but man he's awful.

He was half way decent. Nothing special. None of the others guys Green Bay has trotted out are even close to that. A half way decent RB would really help.

[Unocal 76]

This game is basically a case of who shoots themselves less in the foot

[Krimzon]

Did Drew Brees have a stroke or something?

[Cyno]

And so the Saints kiss their already meager chances at a playoff spot goodbye. I don't know if I can conceivably see a 9-7 team get an NFC wild card spot, and that's if Nawlins manages to run the table.

[MGH]

First truly impressive thing Atlanta has done this season. They absolutely embarrassed Brees.

I guess Drew Brees really did end up with...

*puts on glasses*

...egg on his face.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
