Don't tell anyone, but Jay Mariotti just got arrested for assaulting his girlfriend.

Yeah, the sportswriter on ESPN's Around the Horn.

Right, the douchebag…not Woody Paige

The Examiner added this to their article:
Mariotti is known for his sports talk on ESPN and was also one of Tiger Woods' biggest supporters when it was rumored Tiger may have been abusive to wife Elin.
(translation: should've seen it coming)

Also, it wouldn't be right if Chad Ochocinco didn't add his two cents:


Actually, the fact whether Chad is 'aight' or not is highly questionable.

tra thomas announces retirement



Pro Bowl left tackle Tra Thomas to retire after the effects of arthroscopic knee surgery causing a decline with his performance during camp:


"I was just watching film and I don't think I was playing as well in practice as I should be," said Thomas, who entered the NFL as a first-round pick of Philadelphia in 1998. "If I'm not playing well in practice, I'm not going to play up to my standard in a game ... I feel very good about the decision. I 'm going out on my own terms. At least, I know I gave it everything I could."

favre x vikings: the sequel

Favre returns for his 20th season in the NFL.



Favre on last year's NFC Championship game:


“As we were driving on that last drive it seemed like it was destiny—for us,” said Favre, whose interception in the final minute ended that march and the Vikings never got the ball in overtime. “I was so close, so close to getting these guys to the Super Bowl."
“I owe it to this organization to give it one more try.”

when a play goes wrong

carmelo to leave denver



Anthony's hesitation to sign a three-year, $65 million extension with the Nuggets goes beyond his desire to enjoy the major-market exposure and pressure that LeBron James and Dwyane Wade turned down this summer. Melo would accept other destinations as well, and the Magic are believed to be at the top of his list along with the Knicks, according to a person familiar with his strategy.
The exit strategy began taking shape last week, while Anthony was in New York for Nike's World Basketball Festival. It was then, according to the source, that Nuggets management was advised to begin exploring trade possibilities for Anthony to avoid losing him as a free agent and getting nothing in return. When Denver fills its vacant GM position, the likely choice, former Suns executive David Griffin, will inherit a crisis similar to the one he endured with Amar'e Stoudemire, who left the Suns for a five-year, $99.9 million deal with the Knicks.
