The New York Giants won despite blowing a big lead, and the Atlanta Falcons remained undefeated. Here's a recap of all of Sunday's action:

There's a lot of argument over this anonymous clip. Not about the guy doing a forward flip right over the person about to tackle him: That's obviously a display of athleticism. No, some people think it was "staged" and others argue it happened spontaneously...

Doug Martin caught one touchdown and ran for another score as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Minnesota Vikings, 36-17, in Minneapolis on Thursday night.

Two World Series games, college football and an NFC East showdown highlight this weekend's sports offerings. Here's what to watch:

Brian Urlacher and D.J. Moore each collected turnovers to stifle potential second-half touchdown drives, and the Chicago Bears beat the Detroit Lions, 13-7, in Chicago on Monday night.

A 5th grade rivalry football game had a wild and wacky ending. The Memphis (Tennessee) Briarcrest Christian School and Memphis (Tennessee) Presbyterian Day School battled right down to the final 2 seconds. Memphis thought they had won on what appeared to be an interception on the game's final play.

It's been a pretty rough year for the New Orleans Saints. Their head coach, Sean Payton, was suspended for the season for his role in the bounty-gate scandal and the team that went 13-3 in 2011 started the 2012 campaign 0-4.

Football long ago surpassed baseball as America's most popular sport. But with the baseball playoffs now in full swing, are people giving up a little football to watch some more baseball?

We're approaching Week 6 of the 2012 fantasy football season, and unless your team is protected by some sort of magical force field, you're probably dealing with a few key injuries. No fantasy owner would think less of you for shedding some tears over the state of Cedric Benson's foot or Aaron Hernandez's ankle. Still, don't spend too much time in the fetal position—even the most competitive leagu

When Tammy Faile and her two children were chosen as the military family of the game for South Carolina's match up Saturday against the University of Georgia, they probably expected some sort of message from their husband and father Sgt. First Class Scott Faile, who is stationed in South Korea. And that's what they got at halftime, a video message on the University of South Carolina’s Williams-Bri
