The Baltimore Ravens, New England Patriots, and Tennessee Titans play in stadiums that had to be renamed due to a bankruptcy. The Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins play in a building that has a name change due to a corporate buyout. Meanwhile the soccer stadium in Graz, Austria will have it’s named changed due to the delicate sensibilities of our moral superiors in Europe. The stadium will no longer be named Arnold Schwarzenegger Football Stadium. Why? Because the native son of Graz did not issue a stay of execution for a convicted quadruple murderer in California. While flaunting their moral superiority the city fathers don’t seem to realize that Schwarzenegger wasn’t on the jury that convicted, nor was he the judge who sentenced, he simply didn’t have anything presented to him that he felt compelled him to get in the way of California state law. It is safe to assume there are plenty of things in Graz still named for locals who were in bed with the Nazis back in the 30’s and 40’s.

New York Knicks teammates Malik Rose and Nate Robertson brawled in the shower room over an unpaid football bet. Rose admitted that he tried to back out of the bet during the game when Eagles' running back Michael Westbrook was injured. "All bets aren't good until halftime," he told the New York Daily News. "When Westbrook went down, I didn't want to bet no more and Nate won't let me out of it. I don't think I should have to pay because all of my guys were injured."

Sports bettors would flock to a sports book with such an injury rule. Rose also claimed that, "Nate tried to jump on me when I was naked, thinking he had the advantage that way." Sounds like the Knicks shower room may be a place to avoid.

The Eagles and Rams, two teams out of the playoff mix, match up in an indoor game that seems likely to soar over the total. Both want to see what their young quarterbacks have to offer, which could lead to both scoring drives on one side and turnovers that lead directly to scores on the other. Rams games are simply high scoring. The average game in the RCA dome this year has seen 52 points scored. Once feared, the Eagles defense currently ranks 25th in the league and this beat up unit is allowing 6 yards per play and over 28 points per game in their road games. The lack of pressure on opposing quarterbacks has been notable, after having the second most sacks in the league last year Philly is tied for 21st in the sack rankings this season. Really no reason for these teams not to just let it fly here. Go over the total.
