Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Disrespected Ryan takes dig at Moss
How is this a dig at Moss? His worst two statistical games of the season both came against Darrelle Revis. It's not slander if it's true.
Posted Saturday November 21, 2009, About: Jets safety defends off-field pursuits
Since 2005:
Kerry Rhodes has been involved in 396 tackles
Ed Reed has been involved in 214 tackles

The Ravens have a stronger run defense which allows Ed Reed to play back in coverage. Therefore he has more opportunities to make a play on the ball.

The Jets run defense is their achilles heel. Therefore Rhodes has to play closer to the line of scrimmage and participate more heavily in run support.

Obviously Ed Reed is still the better player... but this article is way off point. It's not a fair comparison at all.
Posted Saturday November 21, 2009, About: Bills owner wanted Gruden
Ugh... I thought Jon Gruden's new contract meant [i]the end[/i] of his name in head coaching rumors.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Childress extension doesn't please some
Oh definitely. The Vikings front office has done a phenomenal job during the Zygi Wilf era. So give [i]them[/i] the extension... not Brad Childress.

But there are two major faults that I hold against said front office:
1. The perpetual Los Angeles rumors
2. Their impotency at [i]drafting[/i] a franchise QB.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Vikings to consider L.A. move?
I propose the Vikings make a new stadium in Minnesota... an OUTDOOR stadium. Not a lame dome. Minnesota has [i]the[/i] coldest weather in the NFL. Use that weather advantage.

If they move to Los Angeles they'll be moving back to Minnesota within 5-10 years.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Childress extension doesn't please some
Considering Andy Reid controlled the offense in Philadelphia, Brad Chlidress was nothing more than a pawn an an Offensive Coordinator. To do this day, I still don't understand why the Vikings thought he was Head Coach material.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Bears stiff-arming NBC?
Obviously they can't do that... but they can definitely mess with the Bye Weeks and Time Zones. Give em a bunch of games against teams that are fresh off the Bye Week. And then make em play on the road in the East Coast following on the road in the West Coast, etc. And then maybe give em some short weeks by messing with the Thursday Night Games.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Bears stiff-arming NBC?
Yep tweak the Bears schedule next season. Looks like the Bears have to play 16 road games in 2010 including the Saints, Colts [i]and[/i] Patriots? Guess they should have done that interview.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Bears stiff-arming NBC?
This doesn't sound like something that should be decided on a per team basis. The NFL signs the television contracts (not the Bears) so these guys should be obligated to cowboy-up just like the personnel from every other team.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Shockey: LeBron couldn't cut it in NFL
I've often heard people claim that LeBron James is "arguably" the fastest player from basket-to-basket in the NBA. So that 4.9 speed sounded bogus. 4.4 sounds more realistic.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Browns getting desperate?
lol... I considered dragging that statement back to their 1999 reincarnation date. But I think they had actually made the playoffs in 2002.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Sanchez calls speech 'mistake'
There's not much to worry about considering Jim McMahon lowered the bar a lot worse than this. As long as Sanchez can learn to play more consistently on the field, none of this will matter.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Reports: Childress close to Vikings extension
Eric Mangini with the Jets
Brian Billick with the Ravens
Jon Gruden with the Buccaneers
Lovie Smith with the Bears
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Bradshaw rips Cowboys WR
In answer, I'm just copy pasting this off Wikipedia, so feel free to challenge the source with better info:

Williams was traded to the Dallas Cowboys on October 14, 2008 for [b]first[/b], [b]third[/b] and [b]sixth[/b] round picks in the 2009 NFL Draft (the Cowboys also received a seventh round pick from the Lions in the 2010 draft)
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Browns getting desperate?
What's the injury status on Joshua Cribbs? The Browns can't score points without him. I wouldn't be surprised if the Detroit Lions shut out Cleveland this week.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Reports: Childress close to Vikings extension
They'll regret this move after Brett Favre retires. They'll find Childress trying to pretend Tarvaris Jackson is a competent starter again.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Browns getting desperate?
The sad part is key word [i]"getting"[/i] desperate. They should have been desperate for over 5 years now.
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Shockey: LeBron couldn't cut it in NFL
....and Shockey couldn't cut it in the NBA. But who cares?
Posted Thursday November 19, 2009, About: Bradshaw rips Cowboys WR
I hope Cowboy fans aren't still trying to defend that trade. It looks worse every week.
Posted Tuesday November 17, 2009, About: Westbrook may consider retirement
[b]IMO, it's time the NFL considers concussions to be a season-ending injury[/b]. An initial concussion can leave an individual more vulnerable to future hits. And if the brain has not fully healed before taking that 2nd concussion, the damage is significantly worse.

There is no way to say for sure [i]when[/i] the brain has recovered from a concussion, so the NFL should put it's money where it's mouth is and mandate concussions as an automatic IR injury.
Posted Tuesday November 17, 2009, About: Westbrook may consider retirement
As an Eagles fan, I don't want to see Brian Westbrook back on the field until Game 1 next year [i]at the earliest[/i]. And when you consider that he is a 30 year old runningback, it may just be time to retire. At least LeSean McCoy looks like a respectable replacement.
