One of the biggest events in all of really--well, anything--is the Super Bowl. It draws millions upon millions of world wide viewers, and the revenue for the NFL is absolutely gargantuan. This year's game pits the "New" teams--New England...

Being nicknamed "easy" isn't often that, when the moniker sometimes can be used to say how it is to play against someone or to beat them. But that may not be as "easy" to say any more, as "Easy"...

The question will obviously be answered in less than 24 hours--can the Pats be beat? At least in the regular season, that is. They face the upstart New York Giants who are looking to possibly upend what football fans now...

3 reasons to be a believer: 1. Touchdowns. Jacobs scored 9 TDs in 2006 and that's with Tiki Barber stealing 5 TDs. This year, Barber is gone and Droughns is no Barber. Jacobs is ideally suited for goal-line work and...
