Share this: Julian Edelman is a two-time Super Bowl champion, but it looks like the New England Patriots wide receiver is trying to add another accolade to his résumé. Edelman took to Twitter on Thursday to give his pitch to EA Sports in an effort to grace the cover of “Madden 18.” In case you need a refresher, the photo Edelman used is a snapshot of his ridiculous catch in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LI, which helped the Patriots mount a historic comeback en route to a 34-28 overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons.

Massachusetts Brewery Trolls Joe Flacco, Ravens With Internet’s Favorite Questio…
Share this: Is Joe Flacco elite? It’s a question that has followed the Baltimore Ravens quarterback throughout his career, thanks in part to the power of the internet. And even beer cans now aren’t safe from the heated debate. Massachusetts brewery Tree House Brewing Company recently sent a few beers to the Baltimore Ravens’ facility, and they were from the 12,000 new cans that ask if Flacco is elite on the bottom. A Massachusetts brewery stamped the question 'Is Joe Flacco elite?' on 12,000 cans and sent several to the Ravens.https://t.co/rfB4NO1lvc — SportsCenter (@SportsCenter) May 11, 2017 Considering how big the New England Patriots are around the brewery, the new cans make sense. The Ravens and Patriots are huge rivals, after all. “We ask everyone if they are a

by Zack Cox on Thu, May 11, 2017 at 8:00AM 2,218 Share this: Sign Stephon Gilmore: Check. Bring back Malcolm Butler: Done, at least for the time being. Now, it’s up to the New England Patriots to figure out where both of their star cornerbacks will play this season. Gilmore and Butler both are boundary corners, playing the lion’s share of their snaps on the outside in 2016. So is Eric Rowe, who should maintain his standing as New England’s No. 3 cornerback following Gilmore’s arrival. The Patriots’ primary slot cornerback was Logan Ryan, but now resides in Nashville after signing a three-year, $30 million contract with the Tennessee Titans in free agency. Ryan played 309 snaps in slot coverage last season, while Butler, Gilmore (then with the

Dana White Reacts To Anderson Silva Ranting About Him On Instagram
Share this: Anderson Silva is not happy with the UFC, and he has no problem talking about it. The Spider was supposed to fight Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 212, but his opponent was pulled following a positive marijuana test.

Tyronn Lue Believes Cavaliers Better At Handshakes Than Playing Defense
Share this: The Cleveland Cavaliers have been dominating the 2017 NBA playoffs with a high-powered offense and elaborate handshakes. Their defense, on the other hand, has been suspect, to say the least. Well, coach Tyronn Lue was asked about his team’s handshakes Wednesday, and he wished they worked on their defensive schemes as much as their celebratory gestures. [embedded content] “I wish we could remember some of the defensive schemes that well,” Lue said, as transcribed by For The Win’s Alysha Tsuji. “Guys come inside like, ‘My bad, I forgot,’ but they remember all this and all that. I don’t know where they come up with that stuff at.” Perhaps the Cavs can come up with a unique handshake for their head coach, or just work on
