Jeremy Lin and Tim Tebow: How Their Stories Differ Basketball, Football, Free Agency, jeremy lin, Multiple Sports, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York, New York Knicks, NFL, NFL Trade Rumors, Rankings/List, Tim Tebow, US Cities | Comments Off
Jeremy Lin came in as a reserve against the New Jersey Nets on February 4th, scored 25 points in a New York Knicks win, became a starter in the very next game, and voila! Linsanity was born. But with the trade that shipped Tim Tebow to the New York Jets, the Big Apple will play host to both Linsanity and Tebowmania. Is New York City big enough to handle both at the same time?Of course!Many have compared Jeremy Lin and Tim Tebow—two pop culture crossovers. Both players are religious and apparently, they have even become friends. Both are nice guys ...

I'm a diehard. I know it, my friends know it, and my parents know it. I am hopelessly devoted to the New York Jets until the day I die. I have suffered through the pain, the Mike Nugent missed playoff field goals, the 4-12 seasons, the plethora of draft errors and the heartache of being one game away from the Super Bowl two seasons in a row. Jumping up and down, screaming at your television, pacing in the living room, and screaming at Wayne Hunter to make a block is all normal to old-school sports fans, right? I consider myself ...

There has never been a greater week in the history of New York sports.It all started last Sunday when the New York Football Giants stunned the football world yet again, knocking off Tom Brady and the Patriots for the second time.

The night before the Super Bowl, all hope was lost in the Knicks season.Down by a ...

How the Super Bowl prop bets played out NFL | Comments Off
Betting on the Super Bowl is almost as popular as the game itself. Most folks are content to pick a winner and cross their fingers, but others like their bets to be a little more, well, obscure. These wagers, known as prop bets, can cover everything from how long a singer will take to finish the national anthem to who will score the game's first points. Jeff DeLuca of the Yahoo! Contributor Network listed some of the strangest prop bets before the game kicked off. Here are some of the results: Did Kelly Clarkson take too long to sing the national anthem? According ...

Want to watch UMass kids riot and a Giants fan get punched in the back of the head? NFL | Comments Off
Of course you do. 1) You should not punch anybody in the back of the head. 2) If you decide to taunt angry, irrational rioters by salsa dancing in their face, you probably will be punched in the back of the head. I'm not even totally comfortable calling this a riot. I see a bunch of angry kids milling around. Fourteen arrests were made, 13 of them were UMass-Amherst students, and crowds were dispersed by smoke bombs and pepper balls. Anyway, about the Giants fan who took a punch in the back of the head, I'm pretty sure he's fine with it. You can ...

Only dance can heal the wounded souls of Matt Light and Rob Gronkowski NFL | Comments Off
The best story about post-Super Bowl heartache is this one: Dan Wetzel captures Tom Brady's pain immediately after losing again to the Giants. The second-best story about post-Super Bowl heartache is this one: Matt Light and Rob Gronkowski taking their shirts off and dancing their hearts out after the game. The lesson here? When you are fiesta, you are always fiesta. Bigger pictures to follow. According to Deadspin, these pictures were taken at the invite-only Patriots postgame party. LMFAO was there, as were Maroon 5, Steven Tyler and Earth, Wind & Fire. It actually doesn't look like a much different atmosphere than ...

Hysterical Pats Fan Cries Over ‘Stupid’ Team NFL | Comments Off
We know from the hit Hootie & the Blowfish song "Only Wanna to be With You" that the Miami Dolphins make lead singer Darius Rucker cry. And several months ago a mother taped her son crying after a Jets loss. After the Super Bowl, we can now finally add Tom Brady to that list. A stunned — and sobbing — New England Patriots fan was videotaped by whom we now presume to be her ex-boyfriend in the moments after her team's Super Bowl loss to the Giants. The fan, in her Tom Brady jersey, begins her sniffling tirade against the "stupid" Patriots in ...

NMA’s Super Bowl recap is suitably deranged NFL | Comments Off
Ultimately, what matters about a Super Bowl is how it's remembered years from now. So please, remember nothing you see about this video from Taiwanese animation company NMA, because if you do, someday recounting those thoughts will get you institutionalized. That great catch Mario Manningham made along the sidelines? The ball was on fire and caught with a basket like the ones they collect money with in church. Ahmad Bradshaw briefly entered the Matrix before he went into the end zone. And God doesn't love Tim Tebow anymore. [ Buzziest Super Bowl ads | Video: Check out all of the ads ] But ...

New York Giants celebrate Super Bowl victory with airplane sing-along (video) NFL | Comments Off
The New York Giants were in high spirits on their return trip to Newark on Monday morning. In a video uploaded to YouTube by rookie linebacker Mark Herzlich, members of the team, led by running back Andre Brown, are shown singing and dancing on the plane to a catchy tune that's certain to get stuck in your head for the next 90 minutes: "I got a ring! I got a ring. He got one too." It's like the complete opposite of that Beyonce song. Thanks, HuffPost Sports [ Buzziest Super Bowl ads | Video: Check out all of the ads ] Other popular Super ...

Carmelo Anthony: It’s About When He Will Be a New York Knick, Not If Carmelo Anthony, NBA Atlantic, NBA Northwest, New York Knicks, NFL | Comments Off
By Cooper L. Train Let’s just stop the speculation. There is officially ZERO chance Carmelo Anthony re-signs with the Denver Nuggets. It just isn’t happening, and anyone who still thinks so must be smoking the same stuff as San Fran Giants fans. He has already begun to go into NFL Wide Receiver Diva Mode, as seen last night during a big win against the Utah Jazz (and the emotional return of head coach George Karl). Anthony had a series of comments that must have just driven a stake into the hearts of Nugget fans, such as: “They want to sit down and talk, but my thing ...
