When Chris Ault, the legendary Nevada football coach announced his retirement this week, it ended a career that spanned 28 seasons with the Wolf Pack. It was also the 27th head coaching change that we've seen in college football this offseason. With...

TAMPA — The man with one of the coziest gigs in professional football gets to his office at 3 a.m. every weekday. OK, 3:30 a.m. if he is running late. Jon Gruden is the consummate footballholic. He pops up on America's TV screen a few times...

TAMPA — There are lots of ways to spin a one-point loss. Was the difference an 80-yard catch and run from Matt Ryan to Julio Jones? A botched but makable 56-yard field-goal try by Conner Barth in the closing minutes? Having to settle for field...

1. Giants (1 last week): How would an Eli Manning-Peyton Manning Super Bowl strike you? 2. Falcons (3): When everyone was busy watching Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady, Matt Ryan was the best passer in the first half of the NFL season. 3. Bears (2): Their...

As I was saying ... ... Apparently I went to the bathroom on April 15, 2009, and just got back. Wow, I sure feel better. Wish I could say the same for the Orlando Magic. (Bada bing.) From an Orlando sports perspective, the sad saga of the Magic and...

The ending of last week's Dr. Phillips at DeLand game suggests neither coach will be calling each other anytime soon to talk about re-upping for another home-and-away scheduling contract. That would be too bad, because DP's wins in 2010 and 2011 were...
