The Instagram post by @liesofmirrors was false. Created to destroy by a hateful MAN. He has been discovered. It has been taken down.

Cam Newton's $67.6M over the 1st three years of deal bests what Big Ben just got. Most ever over the 1st 3yrs (a key metric in these deals)

This Day in TBL History: The Viper celebrated too early (2014) … Hope Solo and Jerramy Stevens took in a USA-Germany match (2013) … “You Will Want to Read the Inspirational Story of Jack Twyman” (2012) … Back before they were beefing on Twitter, Stephen Douglas wrote about Michelle Beadle’s sendoff from SportsNation (2012) … Nailed it!
