Johnny Awful and More NFL Notes

Johnny Manziel and Geno Atkins :: AP

Johnny Manziel started his first NFL game and it did not go well as the Bengals pounded the Browns 30-0. Cincinnati defensive end Wallace Gilberry mocked Manziel's money sign while running back Jeremy Hill received a rude reception when he tried to jump in the The Dawg Pound ... The Jets beat the Titans in the first 16-11 game in NFL history; it also featured the biggest brawl of the season. Props to this Tennessee fan for this Marcus Mariota jersey ... The Bills upset the Packers, thanks in part toJordy Nelson dropping a wide open 94-yard-touchdown pass ... The Cleveland Police are not happy with Andrew Hawkins right now ... Seahawks OT Russell Okung was spitting blood and pushed the team trainer right before halftime. He didn't play in the second half as the Seahawks (thanks to a borderline 'Roughing the Passer' call) defeated the 49ers, 17-7 ...Warren Buffett wore a Ndamukong Suh jersey to the Lions-Vikings game. I smell a buddy sitcom ... Both Peyton ManningandTom Brady gave their coaching staffs heart attacks by trying to do too much on a run play ... An angry Santana Mosswas ejected for arguing a controversial non-touchdown by Robert Griffin III ... Dez Bryant and Malcolm Jenkins nearly brawled before the Cowboys beat the Eagles, 38-27 ... Lastly, this fan dressed up as a Cam Newton car crash victim.

Feel-Good Moment of the Weekend (for everyone)

Lauren Hill, who has a cancerous brain tumor that is inoperable, scored her first basket of the season in front of her Mount Saint Joseph University fans. Hill's story is pretty remarkable if you haven't seen it. She was not supposed to live this long and was signed up for hospice care by her parents earlier this month.  

Feel-Good Moment of the Weekend (for this one fan)

A Patriots fan won $1 million during a halftime contest yesterday sponsored by the Massachusetts State Lottery. Ernest Tomascik had to choose from 24 oversized scratch tickets, each one containing a prize. And like a good Patriots fan, Tomascik chose No. 12 in honor of his favorite quarterback and won the grand prize.

Lovely Lady of the Day

Carly Lauren wore this wonderful dress to BenchWarmer's 10th Annual Winter Wonderland Toys For Tots. So in honor of the tots, I'm making Carly today's LLOD (click here for full-size gallery).

Kobe Bryant moved past Michael Jordan to claim the No. 3 spot on the NBA's all-time scoring list on Sunday, which Nike celebrated with its new Mamba Moment shoe. So which player is better? FiveThirtyEight crunched the numbers and concluded that MJ is "much better."

Most Surprising Athlete Cameos

Uproxx has compiled the most unlikey athlete cameos on sitcoms. As luck would have it, I'm interviewing Muggsy Bogues in a few hours and plan to ask him about this. 

Sign Him Up!

Jack Lenihan, a wide receiver for Barrington High in Illinois, may not get much playing time but he made a hell of a recruitment video. One for the ages.
