Why does Moore have his helmet? There is zero way he took and passed all the tests.

Independent neurologist said he got hit in the jaw and didn't lose consciousness, so they cleared him quickly.

Why would I want to be a guest producer on a bland ESPN radio morning show? I'd have to wake up early.

If the afternoon game is a dud this might be the worst weekend of playoff football ever.

If the afternoon game is a dud this might be the worst weekend of playoff football ever. Which makes it all the more absurd that the NFL wants to expand the playoff field from 12 to 14 teams. Last April, Roger Goodell said that playoff expansion "will likely happen at some point." Hopefully this weekend serves as a deterrent to playoff expansion, because by watering down the Wild Card Round even further, we'd just be allowing more unqualified teams to enter the postseason and making this weekend even more unwatchable. If the field were expanded to 14 teams this season, that would mean we'd be getting the Matt Cassel-led Titans in the AFC playoffs and the 9-7 Buccaneers in the NFC field. Who, aside from Titans and Buccaneers fans, wants that?

Who, aside from Titans and Buccaneers fans, wants that? It wouldnt kill football but it will hurt it. NFL is already going to have problems going foward in attempts to make the game more offense oriented while safer at the same time. half these teams look like expansion teams.

NFL is already going to have problems going foward in attempts to make the game more offense oriented while safer at the same time. half these teams look like expansion teams. It would water down the importance of the regular season and the quality of play in the postseason. The playoffs should be the very best teams in the NFL going at it for the right to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. Thus far, we've seen six teams play this weekend and of the six, only one - Pittsburgh - feels like they have a realistic shot of doing that. Adding playoff teams would just make the games in September through December just a little less important. Why should teams go all-out to win if they know that 9-7 would be enough to get into the playoffs? Why not just coast through the regular season, stay healthy, win nine or 10 games, then start caring when the calendar turns to January?

Yeesh, this is weekend of the squash match. The Divisional round should be much better. Seattle at Atlanta, Pittsburgh at Kansas City, and New York/Green Bay at Dallas all have the makings of terrific games.

Early reports say that Vegas will open Pittsburgh a 2.5 road favorite against KC next week.
Boy, that's disrespect.

How often do teams with losing records play I the NBA playoffs?

I'm watching this Giants pass rush and realizing that they are going to advance to the Super Bowl to beat the Patriots and all I want to do is cry.
