With soccer and basketball being the two main sports in Israel, the commissioner of the Israel Football League (I.F.L.) wants to take football to the next level. Uriel Sturm is attracting players from all over the country and has them feeling like a family and feeling healthy, offering them an exciting escape from the mundane routine of their daily lives. Many believe the I.F.L. will bring football to a professional level in Israel but at the same time football has been omnipresent their for 22 years, albeit flag football and not professional....

According to the Onion SportsDome, the retired safety, once known as the NFL's dirtiest player as the leader of a dominating Patriots defense from 2003-2008, has no idea he ever played football. The two-time Pro Bowler claims he never knew he was part of a complicated game but rather just thought he was chasing and hitting people, preferably in the head. He also added that if he forced them to drop anything they were holding then all the better. Interesting comments from a player who revolutionized the safety position. Watch Host Mark Shepard and...

Ho, ho, ho, everyone! With the Steelers dominating the Panthers 27-3 this Thursday, they opened themselves an early Christmas gift in the form of a clinched position in the playoffs, putting them in a merry mood. Here's something from Daniel Tosh and the crying Giants fan that should get your holiday spirit going with a laugh. I can only imagine how he reacted after last week's meltdown against the Eagles. Enjoy and have a great and safe holiday from JZ Sports!

The New York Jets are on the brink of a playoff berth, only needing a win over the Bears on Sunday to clinch. Unfortunately, there appears to be another off the field issue clouding the team, Rex Ryan's foot-fetish. It seems elementary and unimportant to the game of football and it is. The videos Ryan and his wife made are slightly disturbing and make it clear he has a foot fetish... but who cares? Can the media just leave the Jets alone? His foot fetish, true or not (seemingly true when Ryan labeled it a personal matter), has nothing to do with...

The women's basketball team at the University of Connecticut set the NCAA basketball record for most consecutive wins with 89 straight after beating Florida State on tuesday. Coach Geno Auriemma had a less than stellar view of the record, claiming that nobody truly cares because it is the women that accomplished this feat, beating the men's record of 88 straight, set in 1974 by UCLA. His comments are borderline controversial, albeit honest and direct. He might have a point as he brings sexism into the picture. Watch what he says...

Watch: Boomer Esiason on Behind the Mic talking about Tim Tebow.
The University of Florida legend played with poise and fervor in his first NFL start, becoming the third player to throw a touchdown pass of at least 30 yards and run for a score of at least 40 yards in the same game. While Tim Tebow only finished 8/16, 138 yards and no interceptions, his critics still doubt him. He is a scrambling quarterback. The Broncos can force him to throw as much as they please but it is his legs and his drive that got him drafted and in the NCAA history...

It seems like a tidal wave has hit the usually optimistic and positive Gang Green.

Those same fans are now questioning the team's recent play and the flustered lack of confidence from the face of the franchise,...

This Saturday night game between the Muskegon Lumberjacks and the Cedar Rapids Roughriders of the United States Hockey League featured a unique move by 17-year-old defenseman Travis Walsh to win the shootout for Muskegon. He told the Huffington Post, "I didn't have the move planned, but for some reason I got an urge to do it. "I came up with it five years ago when I was messing around with pucks on an outdoor rink. I didn't really think I was going to do it until right before I did it. It ended up working out well." I have to admit that I don't...

He was hired with so much enthusiasm and expected to bring a title to a team that needed a young exuberant leader to take them over the top. After being hired, McDaniels immediately attempted to trade his star quarterback to receive Matt Cassel from New England, where he was previously the Offensive Coordinator. This did not sit well with Jay Cutler when the trade fell through and the rumors got out. He immediately requested a trade and was eventually traded to the Chicago Bears for Kyle Orton. Things only got worse... Here is a timeline of his...

If this was put on television, it would be the greatest commercial of all time. It is, however, a mash-up of Jordan's "Maybe It's My Fault" commercial and Nike's "Rise" commercial featuring LeBron. We were emphatically disappointed to discover that this was not a real response by Jordan, albeit perfectly fitting. Perhaps the message does reveal Jordan's true feelings. Watch and Enjoy...

This fight will never get old. The NFL needs to adapt the hockey mindset and allow the tossing of gloves. Let the players throw punches and blow the whistle. Sure it's a ludicrous thought, yet it does get fans riled up. Do the players deserve suspensions or can $25,000 fines suffice as Roger Goodell believes. If they didn't fine Richard Seymour for slugging Ben Roethlisberger, they have no choice but to follow the same method with these two. Either way... enjoy the video...

It is understandable for a head coach to become indecisive when he has two good quarterbacks on his roster. After all, that situation creates a lot of pressure to sit/start the right player, especially if the coach recently traded away one of the greatest quaterbacks of our time. The only thing is, Andy Reid doesn't actually have this problem; there is only one good quarterback on the Eagles...

"Rome wasn't built in one day." ~ Lebron James, after loss to Celtics It was a strange game, seeming like a vivid dream that one waits to wake up from. While every sports blogger is discussing the Miami Heat's loss to the elderly Boston Celtics, I will continue to do the same. It was an awkward showing, the Heat looking tense and the Celtics displaying youth that I personally doubted they still had, even with 38-year-old Shaquille O'Neal manning the center position....
