It’s official: the BCS is gone after this season, replaced with a four-team playoff called…the “College Football Playoff”. Really? It’s also official that Jerry Jones is getting the championship game at Cowboys Stadium. But, other than money, why was Jerry so desperate to get this game in Dallas…?

Another NBA Team Butchers a Christmas Song for Our Amusement [VIDEO]

If Houston's trying to own Hanukkah, Dallas can't be far behind in trying to own what's next. The Houston Rockets did "The Dreidel Song" to honor those eight crazy nights. Not to be outdone, the Dallas Mavericks got together for a really bad rendition of "Sleigh Ride". Too bad for the Mavs and Rockets that the San Antonio Spurs own them both.

Should Football Really Ruin Your Day? Why I'll Never Be A Super Fan Of Football

Lisa Sanchez — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 04:36:06 +0000

To be perfectly honest, I don’t hate the Cowboys. Just their overly obsessive, angry, cursing, trash talking, egotistical fans. And contrary to popular beliefs, that is not all the Cowboy fans out there. Now before I am exiled out of El Paso by a huge pitchfork carrying, blue and white wearing mob, let me explain [...]

Mayors Go Hardcore on Super Bowl Bet

Watch more comedy videos from the twisted minds of the UCB Theatre at UCBcomedy.com

Most years for the Super Bowl, the mayors of the two cities involved make some sort of lame bet. So someone with the Upright Citizens Brigade comedy group made a parody video about the mayors of Green Bay and Pittsburgh making a RIDICULOUS bet.

Big Ben's OK — It's Rum and DIET Coke!

KLAQ Morning Show — Thu, 03 Feb 2011 15:35:27 +0000

Big Ben says he's a changed man since his four-game suspension after an alleged sexual assault of a 20-year-old Georgia coed for which he was never charged. And, sure he's changed since that night...his CLOTHES! Though karaokeing in a bar is no big deal, the alcohol is troubling (although it's nice to see Big Ben trying to keep that girlish figure by drinking his rum with Diet Coke), and the fact it's SUPER BOWL WEEK could be worse
