Black Sports Online points out that Donovan McNabb acted like a ass yesterday. The Philly QB was flagged for taunting late in the Eagles win over the Giants. After being run out of bounds into the Giants sideline, McNabb picked up a phone and pretended he was talking to the Giants coaches upstairs. Because it was in the heat of the moment, the taunt wasn't as annoying the premeditated, Chad Johnson/Joe Horn/Terrell Owens celebrations, but still proves that McNabb, beloved of broadcasters, can be as big a jerk as anyone in the league. If Randy Moss had done something like that, he would have been brutalized in the media all week. Then again, if Bret Favre had made a fake phone call like that, he would have been celebrated for "just having fun" and lionized for being a throwback.

There's other NFL stuff too, besides Baltimore's bruising win over Tennessee (the game of the year so far) the Steelers slapdown of the Chargers, and Jake Delhomme's disaster against the Cardinals. For instance, Tony Dungy is leaving Indy and Josh McDaniels was hired to coach the Broncos. But who cares? The story of the day is Gunaxin's fond remembrance of primordial video game sensation, Temco Super Bowl. You've got to love the pink end zone.

















Paul Greco at Fantasypros.com says he drafted his 2009 MLB fantasy team naked. He suggests that everyone else do the same.

Busted Coverage has news of biblical proportions: Erin Andrews has a hot sister. Dan Patrick blogged on Sports Illustrated that he watched the BCS game "in a private suite" with Erin and Kendra Andrews, and BC has hunted up some pics of the other Andrews sister. The brunette is a dancer (the real kind, on stage, wearing clothes) and, obviously, has thighs of steel. Dan Patrick, married with four kids, obviously, has a very understanding wife.
