The NFL has officially become a farce after replacement officials stole a game from the Green Bay Packers on the last play of Monday night’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.

Robert Griffin III, Brendon Ayanbadejo and Rob Gronkowski all cool with a gay teammate

Greg Jennings, wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers, says the tradition of players jumping into the stands after a touchdown — the “Lambeau Leap — has its downsides.

He talked with teammates about the issue after Wade Davis came out

Kurt Warner is an inclusive Christian and a voice of the NFL.

Esera Tuaolo has had a tough couple of years. In 2010, he was arrested for domestic abuse after an altercation with his then-boyfriend. Despite neither the boyfriend nor the boyfriend’s parents pressing any charges, big headlines were made out of the arrest and charges of assault (which were later dropped). As Tuaolo tells Ross Forman […]

Cooper/US PRESSWIRE) This is sad news about a player I watched and admired for years — former NFL linebacker Junior Seau was found dead today at his home in Oceanside, Calif., from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Gisele Bundchen, the supermodel and wife of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady ripped his receivers for dropping passes after the Pats lost the Super Bowl to the New York Giants, 21-17. She was heard saying this by Insider.com: “You (have) to catch the ball when you’re supposed to catch the ball. My husband cannot […]

How I saw Super Bowl XLVI, including my hot players of the game: They did it again. The Giants are the Patriots' Kryptonite, their daddy, their master, their tops, choose your word. For the second time in five seasons, the Giants have beaten the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Sunday it was 21-17 on a […]

Gay-friendly owners. Madonna. David Beckham in his underwear and 106 players in tight pants. Welcome to this year’s Super Bowl. Gay enough for you? For those who want to dazzle fellow Super Bowl partiers with obscure porn references and some insight to the game, I present my annual Super Bowl for the Clueless. WHAT: Super […]

We at Outsports certainly appreciate Baltimore linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo’s NFL-leading advocacy for gay rights. Unfortunately, a Tweet from early this morning has also proven him to be a sore loser. Hours after his team blew a game to what Ayanbadejo deems an inferior team, he held a little pity party on Twitter: We at Outsports […]

Hot player of the week The conference title games look even; Packers fall apart; Ravens get lucky; Tebow still stinks; Alex Smith shines; homoerotic quote of the week; hot player of the week. How I saw the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. In the upcoming championship games, the home Patriots are favored by 7 […]

Before you roll your eyes and dismiss this as another anti-Tebow snark piece, it isn’t. In fact, it’s honestly made me rethink everything I’ve said about him. There is no denying that Tim Tebow is one of the top sports stories of the year, in part because of the Broncos’ turnaround, in part because of […]

Shaun Cody of the Houston Texans (not to be confused with the other Sean Cody) is known for his sense of humor. It was on display on his Twitter feed after the Texans beat the Cincinnati Bengals in the playoffs. The evidence: Shaun Cody of the Houston Texans (not to be confused with the other […]

I had a friend in town last weekend, so for the first time ever I did not watch any playoff games live. Hence, there was no recap. Outside of the Broncos-Steelers thriller, though, I didn’t miss a whole lot in terms of excitement. The Giants’ 24-2 win over the Falcons sounded like one of the […]

The Broncos can’t score a touchdown, but win the division; Patriots and Packers the top seeds; Colts snag top pick; wild card picks; hot player of the week. How I saw Week 17 of the NFL: I can't remember a lamer group of wild card games than what's coming up next weekend, especially in the […]
