    Growing up in Sacramento, Bears linebacker Lance Briggs found inspiration from a fellow Californian who threw his No. 55 jersey around with reckless abandon the way Briggs eventually would.

  6. It's just one game, Jay: Shut it down

    The NFL's concussion protocol is laughable. It's a guessing game in which team trainers and doctors roll the dice on head injuries. The coaches? They have their own agendas on game days. They are too involved in play scripts, third downs and red-zone...

  9. It's far too soon for Cup talk, but Hawks look good

    I'm going to leave it to Joel Quenneville and his players to remind you "it's still early" in this NHL season.
    I'm going to leave it to Joel Quenneville and his players to remind you "it's still early" in this NHL season. It's true the Blackhawks aren't going to win the Stanley Cup this month. And they didn't get any closer to a title with their 3-2 overtime...
