Posted Wednesday May 22, 2013, About: NFL owners prioritizing stadium upgrades over player safety
Don't kid yourself. Doctors, hospitals, and universities invested in sports medicine to make money, too. Athletes with knee injuries from all over the country go to see Andrews, and unless they're local kids good for press coverage, he doesn't treat anyone for free. UPMC got paid to develop the ImPACT test and licenses it for about $500 a pop to schools or hospitals. That plus tens of thousands of annual patients at the Concussion Center ain't too bad.
Posted Tuesday May 21, 2013, About: Steelers open OTAs with plenty of questions
The Steelers didn't get knocked out of the playoffs until week 16. And that's with our #1 receiver skipping the preseason (and the installation of a new offense) and Big Ben and the Silverback both missing 3 games.
Posted Tuesday May 21, 2013, About: NFL plans to move draft to May
They need to move the pre-season games to May. Bet people wouldn't complain about quality or price in the middle of the football desert. Knock the rust off, break in the rookies, then spend 3 months focused on training and practice. Other than the travel, anything else about those games can be simulated by the teams.

Just stay hydrated, you'll be fine.

Great. Now how's his back?
Posted Tuesday May 21, 2013, About: San Francisco, Houston expected to host Super Bowls
I still think that football without snow is a poor substitute for real football.
Posted Tuesday May 21, 2013, About: San Francisco, Houston expected to host Super Bowls
There's almost no relationship between the style of game that was played in Super Bowl III and the style of game that will be played in Super Bowl LIII.

I dig the Roman numeral thing... looks real impressive in the artwork and whatnot.
Posted Tuesday May 21, 2013, About: Mario Williams denies painkiller abuse
Mario Williams is more than 290 pounds. If he was abusing the drug to get high, he'd need a lot more than 3-5 over a 6+ hour period.
Posted Friday May 17, 2013, About: Charles Woodson to visit Oakland
I wonder if revealing the contract is going to blow up in his face? Denver didn't take the bait ... now if the Panthers have cooled on him and since the Broncos are taking a pass, Oakland seems to be the only team that's serious about signing him.
There's almost no chance he'll get cut. He has more touchdowns than anyone else, and he's got a monster contract. But he needs at least one more operation, possibly even a 5th if the infection is lingering, and as LoveitHateIt said, there's talk that he will need another separate surgery on his back.

What are the chances they'll put him on the injured/return list and just force him to fully recover, saving him until later in the season?

There's some places around Pittsburgh where they could find a lot of people that would fit right in in a Jersey Shore -style show. Funny accent and everything.
Posted Sunday May 05, 2013, About: Dolphins cancel stadium renovation plans
The league would still have Jax and Tampa. Not quite 'south Florida', but there weren't any major issues when Jacksonville hosted the Super Bowl in 2005. Tampa did nicely in 2009. Between those two stadiums, I'm sure Florida could be involved in lots of SB games even without a team in Miami. And it'd give Miami a while to get their stadium sorted.

I'm still not sure why the league isn't doing more to help out.

Where the money that the new CBA took from players for stadium development?
Posted Saturday May 04, 2013, About: Jaguars take chance on Justin Blackmon, but not Tim Tebow?
Last time he was a starter, he took a 1-4 team to the playoffs, won 6 in a row on the way. The Broncos didn't drop him because of a 'complete lack of skills', they just won the Manning sweepstakes.

It's hard to hold anything that happened in New York against Tebow. Ryan is a good motivator, but he's not a good strategist. His refusal to play Tebow, despite the extensive work that he did on his mechanics (he completed 75 percent of his throws for the Jets) shows how bad Rex is at running a team.

Weak sauce. Lots of ways you could dis him, this is just unfunny and unintelligent.
Posted Friday May 03, 2013, About: Adrian Peterson eyeing 2,500 yards
If he can keep up his crazy-ass 6 ypc, he's still gonna need almost 420 attempts to make 2500 yards. That's just an insane number of carries, and at 28 years old, he may never recover from it.
He wouldn't be a bad fit in Washington. He's nowhere near as accurate as RGIII but with Denver he had the same kind of winning attitude.
You'd think they would want to pick up Tebow. At least with another inaccurate running QB on the roster they won't need to adjust the playbook much when Vick misses his 4-5 usual games next season.
Posted Monday April 29, 2013, About: Sanchez hasn't asked for trade ... yet
Cutting Sanchez would still count for like $12 million against the cap, and another $8 million next year. They'd have to find a team willing to take that kind of hit for them to trade him.

I'm glad Tebow got out of there clean. Now he has a chance to test the market, and either find a place to play QB (there's a lot of interest outside the NFL) or finally admit to what everyone has been telling him... he should be a tricky tight end or a running back.
Posted Sunday April 28, 2013, About: Chargers asked Tomlinson to come out of retirement
I know how SD feels. 8 years later, I'd still love to see #36 in black and gold for 10-12 carries a game.
Posted Wednesday April 24, 2013, About: E.J. Manuel could be top 20 pick
This is exactly the wrong way to pick a QB. And it always gets teams in trouble.

Get an accurate guy, and give him time to build his strength to NFL levels. Don't get a strong guy and expect him to miraculously become more accurate.
Posted Tuesday April 16, 2013, About: Ben Roethlisberger lobbying to retain Emmanuel Sanders
Big Ben knows that he only has a few years left in football. (3 or 4, maybe a bit longer if he's very lucky, but he takes a hell of a lot of hits to think about playing at 37 or 38. ) I think he'd rather focus on moving forward, rather than covering old territory with new guys.
