Lil Wayne's 'Green and Yellow' and 4 Other Ill-Advised Super Bowl Songs [VIDEOS]
By David Knowles - AOL NewsMake. It. Stop. With the release of "Green and Yellow," rapper Lil Wayne has entered a dubious pool of songwriters who have crafted Super Bowl-themed tunes meant to rev up excitement for Sunday's big game. A musical response to Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow," Weezy's freestyle composition is a Packers homage meant to counter Khalifa's Steelers love. But as with most songs inspired by football games, it leaves much to be desired for fans of actual music. Here's Wayne's Wisconsin love fest (which, no surprise, contains some NSFW language): Don't get Surge Desk wrong, we're the ...
Gale Sayers Talks Bears-Packers Game, Lovie Smith's Future
By Tom Lorenzo - AOL NewsNEW YORK -- Gale Sayers, the Pro Football Hall of Famer who played seven seasons with the Chicago Bears, knows exactly what the Packers need to do in order to keep the Bears at bay in this Sunday's NFC championship game. "I think if Devin (Hester) gets his hands on the football," Sayers told FanHouse, "the Green Bay Packers will be sorry." Sayers, who himself returned six of his 91 career kick returns for touchdowns, knows just how important Hester is to the Bears success. "You don't give him a chance for returning a kick for a touchdown," he said. "I'm thinking the Packers will not kick ...
Tale of Two Rivalries: Jets-Pats Reality Show Trumps Ravens-Steelers
By Kevin Blackistone - AOL NewsWhen the bamboozlement began is not clear. Maybe it was at the turn of the century, when the Steelers were the last team to beat the Ravens, in a (insert air quote marks) thrilling 9-6 contest, as the Ravens bludgeoned their way to a Super Bowl title. Maybe it was 2004, when the Ravens pinned on the Steelers what became the Steelers' only loss in the regular season. Maybe it was when one-time Steelers' receiver Plaxico Burress and former Ravens' cornerback James Trapp fought on the field in 2002, or when a year later former loudmouth Steelers' linebacker Joey Porter tried to climb aboard ...
Week 7 IDP Sleepers: Dhani Jones Tackles the Globe
By Antonio D'Arcangelis - AOL NewsLast week's sleeper selections featured two linebackers who posted 10-tackle days on Sunday (Clint Session and Desmond Bishop) as well as two defensive backs who each picked off a pass – William Moore and rookie Bucs safety Cody Grimm. Actually, Grimm had a great all-around game, finishing with four tackles, an INT, a PD and a forced fumble. Julian Peterson, who's on a bye this week, had five total tackles, while Scott Fujita posted six total tackles and draws an excellent Week 7 matchup against his old team in New Orleans. Sophomore corner Alphonso Smith didn't pick off a pass, but ...
Week 6 IDP Sleepers: Julian Peterson Still Has Some 'Freak' in Him
By Antonio D'Arcangelis - AOL NewsIt was another week marked by of highs and lows among my IDP sleeper picks, with Packers LB A.J. Hawk (nine total tackles, PD) and Bills safety Donte Whitner (11 tackles; 34 in last three weeks) posting solid numbers and Cowboys veteran LB Keith Brooking (no tackles, two PD) and Bucs DE Stylez White (one solo) barely showing up in the box score. Impressive Atlanta rookie LB Sean Weatherspoon had a decent day going (five total tackles, PD) before he suffered a sprained right knee in the third quarter of Sunday's victory over the Browns. Fellow rookie Taylor Mays, who earned the starting strong ...
Steelers Show Titans Who's Tougher
By Thomas George - AOL NewsNASHVILLE, Tenn. -- These things were clear after the Steelers rattled the Titans here, 19-11: • Ben Roethlisberger need not worry. The Steelers quarterback job will be his upon his return on Oct. 17 vs. Cleveland. There are two more Steelers games (Tampa Bay and Baltimore) to go until his suspension is lifted. Expect a hodge-podge of Dennis Dixon and Charlie Batch in those, much like what was thrown at the Titans. It's simple -- Ben is better and needed. • The Steelers are resourceful when it comes to massaging and managing their game in Roethlisberger's absence. Their 89-yard ...
NFL's Goodell to Roethlisberger: This Is How We 'Man Up'
By Judy Howard Ellis - Politics DailyThis is how real men do it. They man up when the moment counts. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell doesn't know what happened in that "small, dingy bathroom" between Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and a 20-year-old college student in Georgia. But the unknown didn't cloud the unknown for Goodell when he suspended the popular quarterback for six games, sternly, but fairly. The commissioner wrote this in a letter to the quarterback: "I recognize that the allegations in Georgia were disputed and that they did not result in criminal charges being filed against you. My decision ...
Studs and Duds, Week 9: Vintage Warner Reappears
By Shane Bacon - AOL NewsEach week in the NFL, there are players that impress and players that distress. One week a certain quarterback might toss four touchdowns and run around pointing skyward, while the next he's laying on his back, holding his facemask as the other team returns one of his three interceptions for the game-winning score. With that in mind, here's Studs and Duds.StudsKurt Warner, QB Arizona (22-32, 261 yards, 5 TDs, 0 INTs) -- Last week, Warner had five interceptions, looks his age, didn't appear to be comfortable with a receiving core most would quarterbacks in the league would die for. This week, ...
