    Ray Rice had been hoping that after addressing his demons on "Today" a few weeks ago with his wife, Janay Rice, firmly planted by his side, he would be able to move past the domestic violence scandal that has plagued him. Instead, a new video is out, one that the Rice's legal team worked hard to keep under wraps because it may give us a real look at how dysfunctional their relationship is. Who kisses someone who just knocked them out?
  • Bears QB Jay Cutler Walks Out of Press Conference After Local Media No-Show

    Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears exhibited an awful brand of professional football in their 31-15 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football. Given that fact, and the fact that Chicago media are the most ruthless of the Midwest's press corps, Cutler was a likely candidate to be roasted by reporters following the game. But that never happened because he walked out!
  • Adrian Peterson Officially Sues NFL, Was Reportedly Promised Two-Game Suspension

    Adrian Peterson may be thinking about quitting football in favor of the Olympics, but he swung a mighty punch at the National Football League Monday, Dec. 15, when the NFL Players Association filed a lawsuit against the league on behalf of Peterson.According to ESPN, the suit challenges arbitrator Harold Henderson's decision to uphold Peterson's suspension last week and calls said decision "biased, unfair and contrary to the collective bargaining agreement."Much of the controversy centers around a phone conversation between Peterson and NFL Executive Vice President Troy Vincent, who allegedly promised a shorter suspension than the year-long one Peterson is currently enduring."Sports Illustrated" reported the leaked tape and transcribed the following bit of dialogue from the Nov. 12 discussion:"In the recording, Peterson asks Vincent whether he will get a two-game suspension."Vincent replies, Yeah.'"Peterson: It will be two additional games — not time served?"Vincent: No, no, no, no, no, no. It won't ... the one this weekend. So really it's next weekend. You will be back."
  • Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has Worst Game of NFL Career

  • Divorce Rumors Surround Kerry Washington and Nnamdi Asomugha as They're Rarely Together in Spite of Having a New Daughter

    Kerry Washington's marriage to Nnamdi Asomugha, a former American football player on three NFL teams, has always been a little bit different. Even the most private of celebrity couples are usually spotted on the red carpet together occasionally, but not these two. Even during awards season last year, when Washington's hit show "Scandal" was in contention, Asomugha was never with her for support. When Washington celebrated her birthday last winter, her husband was on the opposite coast for a Super Bowl party. The birth of baby Isabelle last May has not made the couple closer either, it seems, and now many are wondering if a split could be near.In the past, Washington made the mistake of allowing her personal life to read like an open book and it burned her, so it makes sense she would now fiercely guard her family's privacy. Back in the October 2013 issue of "Glamour," Washington defended her right to silence, saying:"I'm walking around in the world with my ring. And when people say congratulations, I say thank you. But I'm going to continue to not talk about it and just let it unfold."

  • NFL Officials Fist Bump After Touchdown, Players Question Fairness of Calls

    The Buffalo Bills were upset with the referees Sunday, Dec. 7, after their comeback fell short in a 24-17 loss to the Denver Broncos. Following the game, multiple Bills players questioned the legitimacy of the officiating."It definitely felt like it was about 16 on 11," running back Anthony Dixon told ESPN. "But we can't make that an excuse. We did some things that we shouldn't have did. We can't be selfish like that. There were a couple selfish penalties by a couple of guys. We got to cut that out."Defensive back Nickell Robey was also pretty salty."Very frustrating," Robey said. "We understand that it's Denver. We understand that they are the AFC champions and all that other stuff. But at the end of the day, you have to call the game how it's supposed to be called. Some things just could have gone our way but they didn't. But I guess that's what happens when you're in someone else's territory."
