SportsFilter: The Sunday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Both managers in yesterday's Sheffield Wednesday/Middlesborough match have been sacked -- even though Boro won.
As a Wednesday fan I'm bummed to see Carlos Carvahal go, but I can't argue the decision. It has been an "Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here" season.

Brilliant of the NFL to schedule the Dolphins and Chiefs for a game today, which awakens memories in us older folk of the classic Miami-KC Christmas Day game in 1971. What a show that was. Highlights are worth watching if you can find them. Podolak was a do-it-all beast in a losing cause.

Ed Podolak! There's a name I hadn't thought of since the 1970s.

Today is the Browns last chance to get a win this season. Unless the unimaginable happens next week against the Steelers.
