Opinion NFL Postgame Quotes as Poetry
"Believe" by Tim Tebow
This is a special team,
a special team
when you have a bunch of guys
that when things aren't going good
we get closer instead of pulling apart.
The No. 1 reason we are like that
is because we believe in each other,
we believe
"Springboard" by Ron Rivera
This is something we can build off of,
use as a springboard as we go forward

Opinion Desperate Eagles to Supply Their Defensive Players with Pepper Spray
"9-7 teams have made the playoffs before," said head coach Andy Reid. "Many of the teams ahead of us right now for the wildcard — the Bears, the Lions, the Giants — are struggling and could come back to us. And thanks to our new pepper spray-based defensive philosophy, we don't expect to lose again."
Despite bringing in high-priced talent in the offseason, Philadelphia has one of the most porous defenses in football.
"Should we have allocated some dollars in different areas? Maybe," says Reid. "But we still have money to spend, such as $719 I just spent to buy a case of police-grade pepper spray on the Internet. I bet it proves to be more effective than Nnamdi Asomugha."

News NBA Cancels Season After Hearing that Steve Doesn't Care that the Lockout Is Over
"While everyone involved with the NBA and our millions of fans around the world were excited about the news, it turns out Steve thinks the NBA sucks and wishes the whole season would have been lost," said Stern. "So that obviously changes things. The season is off."
Steve, of course, works in your office and is of the opinion that the NBA is full of "greedy players and owners" who could "learn a thing or two about the real world by losing millions of dollars." He also strongly believes that the NBA game "sucks and no one tries and I never watch any of their games, except some of the playoffs."
All good points by Steve, which Stern acknowledged in his press conference.
"I said from Day 1 of the lockout that we wouldn't restart the season unless everyone in the world professed a love for the NBA," he said. "Based on Steve's comments, that obviously hasn't happened. So I must shutter the league, perhaps for good unless we can convince Steve to give us a shot."
