Rex Grossman did not stay unemployed long.  After much speculation that he was trying out for USFL teams and that no NFL teams were showing any interest, it appears he has signed a 1-year deal with the Houston Texans.  They signed him to the minimum amount for a 7-year veteran, which is $620,000 on the [...]

Rex Grossman Sucks, And America Won’t Let Him Forget It

Steve McNair was on a recent episode of Pros vs. Joes.  For anyone that hasn’t seen the show, basically regular guys attempt to beat pro athletes at random sports activities.  In a recent episode, Steve McNair was not doing to well, and here is what one Joe had to say to him:

26 February, 2009 (09:00) | Chicago Bears, Football, NFL | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Top Ten Nominee tipped me off to this story last night.  Apparently some guy paid $27,000 to watch a Bears game on his laptop while he was on a cruise.  Here’s the story:
