Do you believe in the SI cover curse? Does it apply to team owners? Despite whatever you may believe, Patriots owner Robert Kraft made the cover of Sports Illustrated this week for the first time. What took so long? Photo after the jump…
Super Bowl Media Day was a complete circus as usual on Tuesday. One of the sideshows was a man dubbed “Fake Tom Brady.” At first glance, Fake Tom, also known as Nick Lower of Missouri, resembled the Brady of a couple years back. He has long, flowing brown hair and a thick beard (do you [...]
Rapper, Cash Money Records co-founder/co-CEO, and Lil Wayne father figure Birdman (now known as Baby, for some reason, although his real name is Bryan Williams) has offered to bet $5 million on the Patriots to win the Super Bowl. $5 million!

It was a great night for Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. For Patriot Nation, it was a night to enjoy and exhale after three straight playoff defeats. It was also a night to reflect on what was a great season for Tim Tebow. I wrote last week that the media has embraced a [...]
I have a stubble beard going…so technically you can count me in, but I’m not going nearly as hardcore as Wes Welker or Tim Thomas. But in case you haven’t heard, Welker is growing out his playoff mustache and is urging Patriots fans to do the same ahead of tomorrow’s clash with the Broncos. So, [...]
We’re telling you this because…well, I’m not sure. But in case you were wondering, music legend Eminem has decided to weigh in on this year’s NFL playoffs, speaking with GQ Magazine.
