Thoughts On Spygate, John Tomase, Future

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Tomase will say, I trusted my source, made a judgment call and it turned out to be wrong. Did the NFL knew these tapes existed? If the Pats had already disclosed the taping of these games from 01 and 02, then nothing should happen to Belichick and the Pats. I beleive the confusion is that [...]

Tex Avery - “Red Hot Rangers”

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

They say he is undersized which is rediculous. How is that undersized? Can that really be a knock on a wr? The media’s infatuation with BIG wr’s is just stupid. Reggie Williams from Jax is another example of a big wr with little production. Some of the best wr’s in the legue are small guys. [...]

Bobby Reid’s Overprotective Mom: “A Fool At 40 Is A Fool Always”

Monday, April 28th, 2008

There’s some conflict of interest there when the story is hot and heavy and you work for a major media organization, which I do. But you’ll recall that my take was that Gundy’s rant was embarrassing and that Jenni Carlson’s piece in The Oklahoman had some major holes. However, nobody had really considered that the [...]

NFL Draft Q&A: RB Justin Beaver

Monday, April 28th, 2008

The 23-year old Beaver Creek High (home of the Aftab Purevals) grad describes him self as a simple sinker, slider, change up kind-of-guy. Beyond the often-heard pitch names, he has command and ability to vary speed and location that keeps hitters off balance. So far it worked on every level, that is except AAA, which [...]

Who The Hell Will They Draft 2008: Appalachia State S Corey Lynch

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

The guy who blocked that kick and then returned it for a TD (the play we all saw looped on TV for weeks) was FS Corey Lynch. That one play summed up Corey Lynchs college career. It seemed that in game, after game, after game Corey Lynch was always around the football, generating turnovers as [...]

Saints First Draft: DeMario Pressley

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

They moved up two spots in the fifth round to draft DeMario Pressley out of North Carolina State. The move cost the Saints their seventh-round pick in this year’s draft (No. The 6-foot-3, 301-pounder is a tall tackle with good speed and athleticism for his size. He even played some end in college, though he [...]

Re: 6th Round: Geno Hayes, OLB, Florida State

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Among the NFL players Hayes can lean on for advice is current Bucs linebacker Derrick Brooks. FSU head coach Bobby Bowden suspended Hayes for the first quarter of the Alabama game on Sept.

The Frozen Tundra :: Packers Take Jeremy Thompson With Pick 102

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

I’ll spare you all the details about him - as Wake fans we know what an asset he was and I know everyone wishes him the best in the NFL. The Packers website has yet to say anything about Thompson, and the they apparently have yet to talk to the press there today (they’re showing [...]

Stag Greco And Long

Best known, of course, are the Frankenstein, Dracula and The Wolf Man series. However, Universal put out a lot of other horror films and one of the most strange and unusual is The Black Cat co-starring Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. It was their first film together and probably one of their best. Directed by [...]

Profile: Reggie Smith - (Rd 3. 75th)

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

ESPN listed him as a cornerback, but he appears to be much more versatile and can go out there as a safety as well. While he’s his own guy, this pick reminds me a little of Dashon Goldson last year. The upside to these kinds of picks is the ability to create some versatility with [...]

Giants Draft Miami Safety Kenny Phillips

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

They had a similar long-distance love affair last year when they picked cornerback Aaron Ross in the first round after giving him the cold shoulder for much of the pre-draft process.

Saints First Draft: Tracy Porter

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

But hes a ball-hawk and was very impressive w/Indiana over the past couple of years. Is a basketball guy, too. Gil Brandt from NFL.com, who is the Cowboys former GM, has him rated between 51-60 in his draft evaluations. I think he could be a tremendous value if hes still around at 56 or 60. [...]

Jordy Nelson Picked By Green Bay Packers

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Offensive Line - Mark Tauscher and Chad Clifton turn 31 and 32 in June, and neither is getting any younger.

49ers Address Needs By Drafting Balmer, Rachal On First Day

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Day 1 certainly wasn’t flashy. But I thought the Balmer pick was a good one for all the reasons the 49ers put forth today. (He was the guy I took in The Sporting News correspondents’ mock). Of all their defensive linemen, Balmer at 6-5 and around 300 pounds, seems like the only one who is [...]

Bison Dele

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Just about this time last year, Katz and I were spending a typical weeknight with Fred Hickman. It was a tough call to pick only two out of Lee/Horford/Joakim Noah/Mike Miller, but Lee plays with a fire on a Knicks team that inspires little to no passion. With Mutumbo hanging around the rim blocking shots [...]

Dolphins Add Henne To QB Mix (AP)

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

He plays with a serious mean streak and seems to look forward to hitting people. There’s no real dropoff in his level of play whether it’s in pass or run protection. He’s also an outstanding team player who shows extreme smarts and awareness for the game.

What If Mike Hart Transfered To Ohio State…? Degeneration Hart

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Hart could go as high as the fourth round, but he’s gotten such negative press lately that the fifth seems more likely.

Response To 2008 Packers Draft

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Very well done and I have to say, despite disagreeing somewhat on what the Packers needs are, I think youre pretty much dead on assessing these players. See this February post saying the same. I know hes become a reach at this point which is a shame because he would have been a steal. Im [...]

Groves Leads AU Draft Prospects

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Where hes headed is anyones guess. The off-season has been like a freak rollercoaster ride for Groves. After having a somewhat disappointing senior campaign due to injuries, Groves rebounded at the NFL combines in February. His performance in Indianapolis caused his stock to rise faster than gas prices. Then it all came crashing down [...]

2008 NFL Draft - Pick #25 Dallas Cowboys (From Seattle)

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

The only reason the Cowboys would trade Anthony Fasano is if they found someone with more upside. And extras. Nicely put together. “Great site if you are a cowboys fan! I’m proud to say I am not! Not a cowboys fan (Go Packers!), but still enjoyed the blog.

Bears Choose Tulane Running Back Forte In Round 2

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Then, they pick up a projected second round player. They only received a jump of ten picks in the 3rd round and a fifth round pick. Even if they received KC’s third round pick straight up instead of just switching the 3rd round picks this whole pick/trade is still a major screw up. They deserve [...]

Jets Make Fans Happy, Pick Gholston With No. 6 Pick

Robertson, the fourth overall pick in the 2003 draft from Kentucky, spent five inconsistent seasons with the Jets. He often seemed out of position in New Yorks 3-4 alignment.

Josh McCown Of The Clan Dolphins: Miami Finds Veteran QB

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

I said earlier that McCown was mostly backup material and so signing him for a reasonable amount of money is a pretty easy pill to swallow. If he turns out to be a play maker and a reliable starter as some are suggesting, thats great and the Dolphins can try to re-sign him down the [...]

Football Basics: Learning Defense

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

Paul Pioneer Press suggests that the Vikes will offer their first-round pick this year and a second-round pick in 2009.

If Ellis Is Gone, Could The Bengals Draft RB Rashard Mendenhall?

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

10, but the Bengals have drafted well at cornerback the past couple of years. As much as the team would like to help the defense, Mendenhall could be an exciting addition to the offense. Draft a guy that’s totally out of place because they played in a non-NFL style offense. Whether or not it’s the [...]

Let The Madden Curse Reign Supreme

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Just prior to the turn of the century, John Madden, the former Oakland Raiders coach and jolly, fat man analyst plastered his own rounded features on to the cover of his product.
