Michael Sam said he comes from a family of homophobes and that his brothers called him a "faggot" after he came out as the first openly gay football player earlier this year, Sam told Oprah Winfrey, according to TMZ. Sam spoke with Oprah for a documentary that aired Saturday, Dec. 27, in which the former St. Louis Rams and Dallas Cowboys practice player detailed how difficult it was for him to be accepted even in his own home. "They called me a lot of things," Sam said, according to TMZ. "They called me a f-g. They called me 'gay.' They called me anything you could think of — just to hurt me." During the interview, Sam changed his stance on whether he thinks his sexuality cost him a spot in the NFL. Sam was released by the Rams and the Cowboys, never appearing in a game. He was drafted in the seventh round after winning the SEC Defensive Player of the Year Award at Missouri in 2013. Read More »
In the latest chapter of the at-times sad saga of Dallas Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain, the linebacker's house burned down Monday, Dec. 22, according to al.com. According to al.com, the home in Lake Tuscaloosa, Alabama, was nearly 7,500 square feet and listed at an asking price of $1.5 million. McClain was drafted No. 8 overall in 2010 after an exceptional college career at the University of Alabama, where he won the Lambert Award, given to the nation's best linebacker. But McClain's career has been marred with tragedy, run-ins with the law and sudden, premature retirements. McClain retired for the second time in April, at the age of 24, according to espn.com. He returned to play for the Dallas Cowboys, where he has recorded 65 tackles and two interceptions in 16 games for the NFC East champions. Read More »

For the Falcons to get in, they need to beat the Carolina Panthers in Week 17. The Lions and the Packers have both clinched playoff berths, but the winner of the Week 17 matchup between the two teams will decide who enters the postseason as North Division champions and No.2 seed and who goes in as a wild card. The South will be won by a sub-.500 team, either way. That team, either the Panthers or Falcons, will be the No.4 seed and get a first round home game, somehow. Read More »
"You gotta be able to work hurt," Hulk Hogan told TMZ. "You can't be taking a day off from wrestling because you twisted your pinkie if you're wrestling the main event at Madison Square Garden." Is that a dig at Michael Sam's sexuality, or the sometimes frail-sounding listings on NFL injury reports? Read More »
Tony Romo has had an elite-level NFL season, but he's finally starting to admit that he's hurting worse than many believed, which could lead to the return of Brandon Weeden, which many Dallas Cowboys fans would be unhappy with. Perhaps DeMarco Murray's strong running game has allowed Romo to rest more than many QB would get to, and that might be the main reason he's still in the team. With the big aspirations the Cowboys carry, can they depend on the injury-hit Romo? Read More »

They say the QB is the leader of an NFL team - not so. DeMarco Murray has proven the perfect leader for the Dallas Cowboys, perhaps making Tony Romo appear a far better player in the process.

With his game-changing performances, the Cowboys believe they could go all the way. Is Murray the best RB in NFL history, or at the very least, does he have the potential to be just that? Read More »
