September 14, 2018 By AM 1530

Steve Smith and Michael Irvin’s relationship as NFL Network collegaues got off to a rocky start last year when Irvin made fun of Smith’s plaid pants during a broadcast.

September 13, 2018 By AM 1530

September 13, 2018 By AM 1530

In just his second season in the NFL, Sean McVay has already become one of the premiere head coaches in the NFL thanks to his beautiful offensive mind and innovative playcalling.

September 12, 2018 By AM 1530

Gilbert Arenas’ NBA career was cut short from injuries, but there weren’t many that filled it up more than Agent Zero in his prime. He also earned a buttload of cash. Arenas proved he can still make it rain in more ways than one in a three point challenge against his former Wizards teammate Swaggy P, by putting up $100,000 in a three-point contest against against Young.

Colin: Nothing about Matt Patricia says ‘NFL Head Coach’

September 11, 2018 By AM 1530

Colin: Dak and these Cowboys have a low ceiling

September 11, 2018 By AM 1530 WCKG

The Cowboys started the 2018 by losing to the Panthers on the road, 16-8, and although they didn’t get blown out, Colin thinks they looked unimpressive in just about every way possible. Dallas looked limited and lacked explosiveness and Dak Prescott looked average and still doesn’t push the ball down the field in year three. Jerry Jones always wants his teams to be interesting, … [Read more...] about Colin: Dak and these Cowboys have a low ceiling
