Posted Sunday May 11, 2008, About: Was Benson's boat targeted?

Its been over a week and there still is no report of Benson's BAC. No one has responded with a BAC for him, so I assumed its unreleased. If he was drunk they would have released it by now to quell the firestorm this story is causing. I'm inclined to believe that he wasn't drunk. Why go through this he said, he said drama. If the Police had a BAC proving he was drunk the could publicize it and this story would be over and done with by now.

Posted Sunday May 11, 2008, About: Was Benson's boat targeted?

I have a question that maybe one of you can answer. What was Benson's BAC? Usually when a known personality gets arrested for drinking their BAC is released by the police rather quickly. I have yet to hear anything about Benson's BAC. I know Carmello Anthony's BAC was released the following day. The fact that Benson's hasn't been revealed and the fact that the two passengers back up his side of things make me lean towards Benson's account.

This is disrespectful...to Deshawn Stevenson. Soulja Boy has no lyrical talent. His music is awful. He should shut up and brush up on his skills on the mic.

Jeez is that a man or a small planet? At least I know where Pluto went.

Posted Tuesday October 09, 2007, About: Texans DT taunts injured Green

All I have to say is this, Travis Johnson would have broken his neck and/or his kneecap on this play, would anyone be defending Trent Green? I am sorry Trent got hurt, that doesn't excuse what he did. If Trent Green dropped back to pass, saw Travis Johnson coming, and Travis Johnson hit him in the knee for a sack, he would have been flagged and fined. Travis Johnson didn't see him coming, Trent hit him helmet on knee, and he landed on his head and shoulders. Doesn't that excuse what Johnson did? No, but I can see how he'd so angry, even after the game.Two players have already had spine injuries this year and he was nearly the third.

Okay am I the only one wondering how she can sue him while stating that he has been an exemplary father? I mean if he was denying the child or not paying up sure, but it seems like she is just trying to squeeze even more money out of him.

Posted Tuesday September 11, 2007, About: No plans to bench Bears' Benson

That may be the case Duany but is Cedric Benson in that 15? I mean they did everything they could to give Benson the job when Thomas Jones was there and Jones out performed him. I wouldn't be surprised if Adrian Peterson ends up with the starting job by the end of the season. BTW Who would of thought there would be two running backs in the NFL named Adrian Peterson. I mean what are the chances.

Wow, I guess its fitting that he is a Bronco now. He has be putting himself out to stud.

Posted Thursday August 09, 2007, About: QB's last season in Baltimore?

Boller has a lot of physical talent but he is just not accurate. Coming out of college his best year for completion percentage was 54%. I think Troy Smith has a better chance at taking over for McNair next year than Kyle Boller.

Posted Thursday August 09, 2007, About: Harrington: Lions handcuffed me

I'm not saying he is going to be a Pro Bowler in Atlanta but Harrington has a point. The QB should be making the reads. I mean if the defense lines up with 8 in the box, the QB should be able to audible to a pass. No whether that pass hits the WR or the DB in the hands is another topic all together : )

As for the Kurt Warner comment. I will never forget watching the Rams in the Super Bowl, my mom, my brother,and myself were watching. They cut to Kurt Warners wife and his mother, we all thought his mom was his wife and his wife was his mother. You can tell he met his wife when he was bagging groceries....

Joec was obviously using sarcasm.

Posted Thursday June 14, 2007, About: Giambi's choice: Talk or get banned

Selig needs to get off of Giambi and resign. I don't condone the use of performance enchancing drugs. That said Selig knew all of this was going on and turned a blind eye. He is attempting to save his own skin by going after Giambi since he can't get anything to stick on Bonds. If the Balco investigation would have never happened, Bud Selig would STILL be looking the other way. The fact that he has the nerve to pretend to care now is laughable.

Posted Friday May 04, 2007, About: NFL draft going prime time?

If they really want to do this, Cleric is dead on. They would have to give teams 5 minutes on the clock instead of 15 minutes if they wanted the 1st Round to start and end in prime time.

Posted Friday May 04, 2007, About: Six teams considering Keyshawn

The guy just caught 70 balls for 800+ yards last year. Delhomme wasn't exactly lighting it up last year either. People need to learn to separate their dislike for a players personality with their physical ability. Keyshawn isn't the player he was, but he is still a good receiver with excellent hands. Not only that he is an excellent blocker in the run game. I don't like the guy's personality either but he is hardly done. I hate to agree with a Cowboys fan but, he has at least two good years left in him.

Posted Wednesday May 02, 2007, About: Bikini shots irk Eisen's wife

Talk about embarrassing. I mean now everybody knows what kind of woman she is. The join email thing is a smart move by Eisen. It gives him plausible deniability on anything sent to it.

Posted Thursday April 26, 2007, About: Redskins set on Landry or Okoye

The Skins need D-Line help more than they do secondary help. If you can't stop the run or get pressure on the QB, your DBs don't stand much of a chance. Depending on who goes in the top 5, the Skins maybe able to trade down a couple spots and get Okoye and another first day (2nd or 3rd round) pick. If that were to occur, Washington should then use that pick on the best available DE. If the pick is in the second round, they should be able to pick up a guy like Charles Johnson.

Posted Thursday April 26, 2007, About: Redskins agree to terms with Briggs

You guys are making a big deal out of nothing. Washington had agreed to contract terms with Dre' Bly as well. Last time I checked, Dre Bly is still in Denver and he signed an extension with them.

Posted Thursday April 26, 2007, About: Goodell to teams: Shut your mouths

Sarge_78, the players are told that the meetings are confidential. There is nothing to be on the fence on. We shouldn't know period. How can they expect the players to be honest with them if they can't be honest about the confidentiality of the interviews?
