Jadeveon Clowney absolutely destroys Vincent Smith

After a controversial call, Jadeveon Clowney takes matters into his own hands and explodes into the backfield on the very next play. The hit on Vincent Smith of Michigan knocks his helmet off and causes a fumble that Clowney then recovers. Holy cripes!

Spy drone at Vikings football game?

Looks like security agents were out in full force during the Vikings-Packers game last week at the Metrodome in Minnesota. Attorney Nathan M. Hansen took photographs of a spy drone and the TSA VIPR agents seen below. Why was a surveillance drone sent up to watch football fans? I am in favor of tight security at sporting events because I think it’s just a matter of time before terrorists successfully strike one. That being said, I think the use of spy drones is a bit creepy.

Kid gets caught ogling cheerleader at Hawks game

A child at last Wednesday’s game between the Atlanta Hawks and Washington Wizards grew up before everyone’s eyes. He was caught on camera checking out the goods as a cheerleader came by with a tray full of candy.

I think it is safe to say Milk Duds are now his favorite candy and he is no longer interested in basketball, toys, or school.

Seems legit

Twins Trade Denard Span to Nationals

The Nationals announced that they acquired center fielder Denard Span from the Twins for minor league right-hander Alex Meyer. Alex Meyer is a 6-foot-9  right-hander selected 23rd overall by Washington in the 2011 draft. Twins fans should be excited. This guy is known to be a power pitcher with a lot of upside. Twins owners better check the height of their dugout though.
