ITV has taken over UK coverage of the NFL for three years from the BBC, another sports rights coup for the commercial broadcaster following last Friday’s La Liga football deal.
ITV’s coverage will start on Friday September 9 with the first in a series of hour-long highlights shows airing at 11.30Pm BST (3.30Pm Pt), kicking off with the LA Rams versus the Buffalo Bills. Laura Woods will host alongside two-time Super Bowl winner Osi Umenyiora and Jason Bell. All3Media-backed North One Television will continue producing the coverage.
Along with the weekly highlights shows, ITV will show February’s Super Bowl live from Arizona and two of the games taking place in London: the New York Giants versus the Green Bay Packers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday October 9 and the Jacksonville Jaguars against Denver Broncos at Wembley Stadium on Sunday October 30.

HollywoodNews.com: Gisele Bundchen got in some hot water when she commented about the other Patriots players – not her husband, Tom Brady – basically being the reason the team lost the Super Bowl.
Now, one player on the New York Giants, Brandon Jacobs, is commenting about what he thinks Bundchen should be doing instead of saying things like that, states UsMagazine.com. “She just needs to continue to be cute and shut up,” Jacobs allegedly told reporters.
And it seems others agree a little but also understand her position as Patriots player Osi Umenyiora commented, “She’s supposed to stay out of things like that. But at the end of the day that’s their relationship and she has the right to say whatever she wants to.”

As if there wasn't enough bad blood between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots already, Brandon Jacobs just threw some more gasoline on the fire. And the Giants running back did it at the expense of Gisele Bundchen, wife of Patriots' Qb Tom Brady.
Following Super Bowl Xlvi, Bundchen ripped Brady's teammates for too many dropped passes in the loss. She says, "My husband cannot f****** throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time...I can't believe they dropped the ball so many times."
Well, this comment didn't sit well with Jacobs, this despite the fact that his team won the game 21-17.
When asked his thoughts on Bundchen's statement, Jacobs tells Yahoo!, "She just needs to continue to be cute and shut up."
Jacobs' teammate Osi Umenyiora had a little bit of a different take and was a bit more understanding.

At first glance the New York Football Giants share very little with the fictional team in Dillon, Texas. However, after rewatching the first season this past week, it dawned on me that this year's Giants team is shockingly similar to the Dillon Panthers/Lions. Allow me to recast Friday Night Lights with the players on the Giants:
Eli Manning as Matt Saracen
The goofy facial expressions, the "aw shucks" expressions, the easy-going personality, Matt Saracen is Eli Manning! Eli Manning is Matt Saracen! Both have led their team to a championship when everyone has counted them out. Both have married their school sweethearts. Eli met Abbey at Ole Miss while Matt met Julie Taylor at Dillon High. In a perfect world Eli would have married Coach Coughlin's daughter, but we'll deal with that later.
Tom Coughlin as Coach Taylor
If there's ever been a coach who has been fired in...

DC’s New 52 made the New York Times again. The title of the article is “So Far, Sales For New DC Comics Are Super,” by George Gene Gustines and Adam W. Kepler was published on Saturday, October 1, 2011 issue, and was featured on the front page of the Arts Section. According the article, the first five weeks of DC’s reboot of its universe has increased “the sales of DC Comics by leaps and bounds.” The first issue of the new Justice League – which the authors call DC’s flagship book. Really? I would have thought it was Superman, since the Son of Krypton is the flagship character. But what do I know? – anyway, the first issue sold “more than 200,000 copies, compared with the roughly 40,000 for each of the last few issues of the old book.” Well, I hope it keeps up, but these are the first issues.

Your NFL Week 13 Recap, in the form of stupid pictures: Browns 13, Dolphins 10 Miami’s playoff hopes are looking slim after this loss, though on the plus side, receiver Davone Bess finally perfected his Yoga Flame: Bears 24, Lions 20 The Bears needed a late comeback and another questionable call to surpass Detroit on the road, but regardless, they’re now celebrating a 5-game win streak: I’m getting VH1′s money out of that bear pic, con sarnit… Steelers 13, Ravens 10 The Steelers forced a timely fumble to grab a late comeback win, though Ben Roethlisberger’s postgame jubilation was short-lived: Packers 34, 49ers 16 The Packers played this game in their 1929 throwback unis, which was cool: What wasn’t cool: The Packers also forced their players to wear leather helmets and only allowed whites to play. Can’t question the commitment to authenticity though. Raiders 28, Chargers 13 With this convincing road win, the Raiders are still fringe contenders.
