5 Things NFL Players Can Do During The Lockout
Last week, we brought you the 30 expensive things you could buy with the estimated $12B that could be lost during the NFL lockout.

As Tim Tebow or Kurt Warner can attest, idle hands are the devil's tools. See our top suggestions for things NFL players can do during the lockout after the jump!

5 Sleeper Picks That Will Be “Mad” Come March [COLLEGE BASKETBALL]
One of the great things about college basketball is with so many teams there is bound to be someone that comes up and outperforms expectations every year. Maybe it’s a powerhouse that was down on its luck last year. Maybe it’s a team that was too green to finish the big games.

Where Will Vince Young Play Next Season? [NFL RUMORS]
If there were anyone with a more tense relationship with his coach and the fan base as Vince Young I would be surprised. Sure, Donovan McNabb's tumultuous tenure in Philly was bad, but he and Andy Reid were close. Vince, on the other hand, just can’t seem to handle the pressures involved with playing at the NFL level. While McNabb's at least lead a couple teams to championship games and a Super Bowl, Vince only has 1 Pro Bowl year under his belt and has zero playoff experience. See who we think Vince will play for next season after the jump!

College Football’s Most WTF Bowl Game Names
If you're like me you probably sit back at least once during the bowl season and think where in the hell do these guys come up with some of the names for these games? Some are ridiculous, others silly, while many are just plain stupid. While the sponsors pay big money to have the bowl named after (or presented by) them in an effort to increase awareness and recall for their product or service, more times than not it leaves a very bad taste in the consumers' mouth (we're looking at you Papa John's!). That being said, there've been some crazy names through the years that deserve recognition for their excellence or lack thereof:
The 7 Greatest American Spy Films Of All-Time
The Angelina Jolie American spy film "Salt" comes out on DVD and Blu-ray tomorrow (Tuesday, 12/21) so we thought we'd count down the 7 greatest American spy films of all-time.

Casting The All Female A-Team [The T&A Team?]
The A-Team releases on DVD and Blu-ray today. Unfortunately, it underwhelmed at the box office and failed to meet expectations for most fans. It's another example of a Hollywood remake of a classic TV show that gets everyone super amped only to be disappointed with the end result. Why? Because for some odd reason studios seem to think they have to give the old formula a new twist. Too often it just doesn’t work. However, there's one twist that would most definitely rock: AN ALL-FEMALE A-TEAM!
