It was announced this week that Neil Leifer will become the first photographer inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. Leifer started shooting for SI as a 16-year-old in 1958 and went on to capture some of the most iconic images in sports. Our photo editors collected some of Leifer's most iconic boxing images but since I like football 200 times more than boxing, I put together some of his classic NFL images for the gallery above.

When Athletes Are Bored

Roy Hibbert locked guard C.J. Watson in the bathroom during the Pacers bus ride from Houston to San Antonio. That's better than having baby powder poured on your head while you're asleep. Just ask Cardinals safety Tyrann Mathieu.

Important WAG News

San Francisco tight end Garrett Celek is engaged to former Hooters calendar model Sarah Hinton. Busted Coverage has the news (and by news, I mean photos of Hinton).

Funny Rex

The Jets may be 5-7 and on a three-game losing streak, but at least head coach Rex Ryan still has a sense of humor. Ryan fell to the ground and cracked a few jokes after a loud noise that sounded like machine gun fire interrupted his press conference. And while we're on the subject of funny coach press conferences, here's Mike Gundy's epic "I'm a man. I'm 40" rant from 2007.

Odds and Ends

Houston-area fans of the show Scandalare not happy about the Thursday night NFL game ... Mark Cubantook a dig at the Nets ... Nationals pitcher Doug Fister, due to make $7 million next season, is renovating his own bathroom ... Should David Ortiz win SI Sportsman of the Year?
