Marcus Smart was suspended for three games following his altercation with a fan. This shouldn’t be a suprise, as pushing a fan for saying something, even something really bad, can’t be tolerated. Both Smart and the fan have apologized, though the fan is insisting he did not use a racial slur. Jay Bilas discusses the situation in the video above and points out how Smart needs to address this issue going forward.

If you’re not sick of hearing about Peyton Manning yet, just wait till after today’s Super Bowl. Win or lose, we’ll be hearing a ton about Peyton and how this game will affect his legacy. He’s intense to the point of being annoying to his teammates, because he’s so obsessed with the details. Russell Wilson potentially has that same attribute, if not the classic NFL quarterback pedigree. He’s younger and plays a much different style. The question now is whether he can win a Super Bowl with that style.
The era of the dropback passer is alive and well irrespective of the trend of the mobile quarterback. The guys winning Super Bowls come from the same mold. Bigger guys who can kill you by throwing from the pocket under pressure. If Peyton wins, that trend continues. If Russell Wislon wins, then perhaps we really are seeing an evolution of the NFL game.
Chelsea fans who like a wager could be in for a treat; the west London club has agreed a sponsorship deal with bookmakers Coral. The contract, which lasts until summer 2016, names Coral as Chelsea’s official online betting partner for Europe. It’s expected to enable Chelsea fans to benefit from special offers, including better odds on the team’s matches.
Is anyone surprised by this? Some are reporting that ticket prices have plunged over $1,000 on the resale market in the past several days.
Would you want to sit in the cold? If you’re a Seattle fan, would you fly cross country and spend a small fortune to stay in New York City just to sit and freeze through the Super Bowl?
I wouldn’t.
SeatGeek official tells me Super Bowl ticket market is "in a tailspin," with average resale price plunging $1,000 just in the past 3 days.

Gregg Doyel makes some excellent points in his recent column, and his point about Bill Belichick’s comments about Wes Welker are echoed in part by Brian Billick in the video above.
Belichick tried to call out Welker as a dirty player, but the tape and the circumstances make his claim ridiculous. The bottom line here is that Belichick outsmarted himself by letting Welker go and trying to replace him with Danny Amendola. The experiment failed miserably, and he had to watch Welker help Peyton Manning to a record-setting season, capped off by an easy win over the Patriots in the AFC Championship Game. Belichick comes across as very bitter here. Even pathetic.
