The Bills' Tyler Thigpen may be a quarterback. But he doesn't have the awareness of one. After preparing to fill in for the injured Ryan Fitzpatrick, a football comes flying into view and bounces right off Thigpen's dome. The announcer said it best, "it's a bad omen." 

This type of act shouldn't come as a surprise. When you film something live from a college campus, these signs are probably the norm. But someone at ESPN let this one slip in. Pause. At the :05 mark, a "Penis" sign shows up right over Kirk Herbstreit's right shoulder. Wouldn't it have been priceless if the people in the production booth wanted a shot farther away and started telling the camera guys to pull out? 

When it comes to snapping the ball, all the center has to do is get the pigskin in the vicinity of the quarterback. Not try and lodge the ball into his own ass! Apparently, another Eagles player needs a couple more reps in the "let's not try to embarrass ourselves every week" category.    

Ever since "Tebowing" has swept the nation, it was only a matter of time until it hit defenses who would use it against the Broncos quarterback. However, after being in existence for a little while, the Lions' Stephen Tulloch broke out the gesture right in Tebow's presence. Isn't that sacrilegious or something? 

Cincinnati's Gibril Wilson must have known that not many people were watching yesterday's Seahawks/Bengals game. That would be the only acceptable reason he could give us for why he decided to lay on top of Leon Washington for a little too long and thought he could get away with no one finding out. Well, your secret has finally been exposed: you went to the Rashard Mendenhall school of how to celebrate a W in the most pauseworthy way possible.
