Reggie Wayne Likes Grand Entrances

Colts receiver Reggie Wayne is medically cleared to play after tearing his ACL last season. And what better way to make your return to camp than in the back of a double-seater IndyCar driven by American racer Ed Carpenter. Wayne one-upped his first appearance from last year, when he arrived in a helicopter.

Trouble For Tom and Gisele?

The always-reputable Star Magazine has a report about the crumbling marriage of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen. According to the magazine, "not only does Gisele allegedly control Brady’s day-to-day responsibilities in the home, but also she has the final say on how their homes are decorated and makes the ultimate declaration regarding how their two children, Benjamin, 4, and Vivian, 19 months, are raised." As a Patriots fan, I'm much more interested in this relationship staying strong.

Gilbert Brown Is Not Happy

As long as the Legends Football League (formally known as Lingerie Football League) keeps putting out these great videos, I will keep embedding them. In this case, Green Bay Chill coach (and former Packers great) Gilbert Brown fires up his squad. Warning: Gilbert likes to curse.

Dwyane Wade On Flopping

Wade shares a funny story about a kid at his camp asking him about all his flopping.

Nick Young On Shooting

This is from last summer but came across my inbox. Swaggy P with an instructional video on how to shoot the mid-range jumper. I'm guessing Swaggy P didn't get much sleep the night before this was shot.

The Rock Discusses His Fanny Pack

Jimmy Fallon gets the story behind the viral photo.
