On this date in WWF history: Dan Marsh becomes 'Dangerous' Danny Davis
Long before the Hebner twins would pull off one of the worst (kayfabe) screwjobs in the history of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), Dan Marsh, also known as WWF referee Danny Davis, would get to exploit the always-hot topic of bad officiating in a long-term program that saw him go from...
He's BAAAAAAACK! Kaká Returns as Real Madrid Stymie Getafe 2-3
C/O SkySportsKaká made his "triumphant" return to the pitch when he was subbed on for Karim Benzema--who was quite mediocre--in the 75th minute of Real Madrid's 2-3 win at Getafe. The game was pretty messy, as we took a two-goal lead twice, only to give one back twice, and neither team seemed to...
Midweek Update
I found this unbelievably weird Spanish sketch comedy show that seems to work exclusively on Spanish football. They particularly seem to enjoy producing bizarre Real Madrid sketches, so perhaps our fine readership will enjoy this one, mocking Kaká, Sergio Ramos, Florentino and of course...
NN NFL Tournament of Badness: Daniel Snyder and Garth DeFelice
I honestly have no idea who is going to advance in this matchup. I know who I am voting for, hands down, but it appears as though I underestimated Daniel Snyder and his antics when I seeded the bracket, he seems to be a powerful number twelve seed. I mean, he did destroy Rex Ryan's foot fetish, so...
SAFC 2-3 Stoke City (A)
The way things were, I was delighted with 3 points, disappointed with 1, and gutted to come away from the Britannia with nothing.

SAFC 1-0 Bolton Wanderers (H)
A scrappy affair for the vast majority of the game, however we’re sitting pretty in the league now. Strange goings on in the SAFC line-up, Ferdinand shakes off his ‘month long’ injury to start, and Meyler misses out completely. In good news though, it was pleasing to see on Sky pre-match Fraizer...
The Ref - Neil Swarbrick
Neil Swarbrick of Lancashire takes charge of his first Premiership match on Saturday in our game away at Fulham, but who is he? And how will he fare? Well, the first stat which jumps out is the fact the 44-year-old has given at least 1 yellow card in every game this season, 50 in total through 16...
Keith Kizer Is More Right Than Joe Rogan About MMA Judging
Joe Rogan's arguments regarding the problems with the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) and mixed martial arts judging are air tight on virtually every count. Executive Director Keith Kizer is a politician. The body he oversees often stumbles or errs and refuses to recognize as such. Many of...

Jason Brewer, the fine editor for the Eagles SBN blog, Bleeding Green Nation, attended a seminar at Eagles' training camp where NFL officials explained some of the rule changes for the upcoming season. 1.) Umpire move - The Umpire that stands behind the defensive line will be moved 15 yards behind...
