Did Jim Tomsula Fart During a Press Conference? (Video)

Without question, Jim Tomsula is the most unlikely of NFL head coaches. The San Francisco 49ers coach does not have the family pedigree of John Harbaugh, nor does he command instant respect like Tom Coughlin. No one would ever confuse him for the cerebral Bill Belichick, although he may bring back memories of the guy who sold […]

Tom Brady Did not Stump for Trump

Tom Brady made headlines two weeks ago when the superstar quarterback made remarks that appeared to endorse Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.

Steelers Plan on Getting Physical with Gronk

There’s little argument that Houston Texans lineman J.J. Watt is the most dominating defensive force in football.
