The NFL announced earlier this week that they are “investigating” claims made by a report on Al Jazeera America last month that Peyton Manning has purchased and used HGH, a banned substance in the NFL. If you noticed, the announcement that the league is investigating Manning didn’t come with much fan fare. The media casually put it out there on Monday, the day after the AFC Championship game. Don’t…

Everybody’s favorite former Bruins is at it again. Milan “Douch”cic has found his sucker punching groove again in Los Angeles. Last week he was suspended for one game for blatantly sucker punching Coyotes defenseman Kevin Connauton after the whistle had blown. Last night, he was it again except this time he struck linesman Jay Sharrers. Lucic was trying to punch the Avs Cody McLeod but he missed and nailed Sharrers….

Doesn’t that Tom Brady make you feel warm and fuzzy inside? He gets it. That’s what makes Brady such a special athlete. Brady loves playing here, living here and he appreciate the passion Patriots fans have for their team. He is truly a rarity in today’s world of sports. An athlete who gets it. WOW. What a guy! The man crush meter just went up a few notches.

One inevitable result of losing an AFC Championship is mentally re-living all the what-ifs and might-have-beens that a close loss generates.  Let’s call it a regret list.  New England’s loss to Denver has most likely spawned two regret lists for Patriot Nation and the folks down at Foxboro to anguish over.   -Regret List #1, Home Field Advantage:  There is little doubt that Denver’s home field played a significant role…

Blake Griffin is going to miss the next four to six weeks with a broken hand after he got into a fight at a restaurant with a team employee over the weekend. Here’s my question. Who the hell gets into a fight with a team employee in public? Griffin is an absolute tool bag! Why the hell would you do that? What a selfish prick! The Clippers can’t happy with…

Look, unlike most New Englanders, I don’t hate Peyton Manning. I think he is an all-time great and I have a lot of respect for him. He’s 3-1 all time in AFC Championship games against Tom Brady, so he’s done his part against Brady when it counts. That being said, he should retire after the Super Bowl. He’s throwing water balloons for crips sake! Its over! The gloss has worn…

Cowherd is right. As great as Manning is, he’s not the Manning of six or seven years ago. He’s a shell of the player he once was. Just like two years ago, he’ll get the shit kicked out of him by the Panthers and Denver will lose. I know football and I know Super Bowl quarterbacks. I really can’t think of a worse Super Bowl quarterback. Physically anyway.

Good one. Here’s a guy who’s legit illiterate and he’s telling Patriots fans to stop whining. How about he quits the NFL Network! He sucks! Every time he opens his mouth, he sets the English language back 50 years! Turd!

The headline for this game could almost be one of those ‘ESPN 30 for 30’ episodes.  “What if I told you the historic quarterback duel, would be no duel at all?”  Billed as the final high noon showdown between Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, two of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game, Sunday’s AFC Championship instead transformed into a defensive slugfest with both defenses pinning back their ears…

DeGuglielmo and Lee Majors have something in common. They’re both “Fall Guys”. Tom Brady was hit 20 times in Sunday’s 20-18 loss in the AFC Championship. Someone had to pay for the Patriots golden boy hitting the ground as much as he did and it’s not the offensive line, it’s their position coach. The Patriots fired offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo on Monday night. Part of me can understand why…
