Love that rule.

as for the rams, eh. I didnt even know they were close to choosing a team. I guess the LA move will be cool to see but they dont have may stars. actually their dline is absolutely stacked and those big guys can be pretty damn funny. not the worst chice, mostly cause of the move, but not the best either.

persoanlly i would have voted for 49ers and that mess their in with Kaep and Chip.

true, didnt really think of it that way

top 100 corners from 2015.  some interesting notes:

- the worst on this list was Brandon browner haha no surprise there with all his PI/holding penalties. 

- janoris Jenkins ranked #75?? not exactly what I would want to see from a high priced FA and esp one who is used to the rams pass rush and now going to a new system....

- Byron Maxwell ranked 31.  I think that is a pretty fair ranking, shows he is a decent 2nd corner.  obviously he is getting paid to be a top 5 corner which is why philly wanted to get rid of him so badly but I didn't think he was that bad and I guess this somewhat proves that.

- DRC #27. thought that was interesting, I figured he would be a little higher on the list but I guess not.

- William gay #23?? nick, didn't u tell me this guy is one of the worst corners on the team?

- prince was ranked #16.  why did the giants let this guy go?

- josh norman was ranked #8.  very surprising, I thought he was getting defensive player of the year buzz and now hes not even in the top 5? guess this writer thinks all the talent around him played a big factor.

- tyrann Mathieu #1??  while I agree he is extremely good, I think to call him the best corner in the league is a bit of a stretch.  I know he plays a lot of nickel corner, but hes more of a safety and not a lock down #1 outside corner like what I was expecting. 

 

 

yeah I shoulda posted the link...

Oh bleacher report rankings? Makes sense, will ignore.

OMG LEVEON BELL IS RETIRING

yeah man hes the worst kind of person. not only did he do something terrible but hes so delusional about himself that he doesnt think he did anything wrong. ppl like that dont deserve to be making millions of dollars, or any dollars, so im glad hes scewed it up for himself and has no one else to blame.

gotta feel a bit for ray rice thou. he went about everything the right way and is still remorseful and working to fix his mistake but isnt even getting a look (or an interview).

yeah I saw this, pretty crazy.  and this was after a few surgeries as well!

id be all about it, especially the ravens. steelers reporters are saying they will either wear all black or all white on thxgiving so not sure whos right (the card has them in all gold). they play at indy and colts wear white alot so im hoping steelers get all black.

still, hoping the ravens are true they would look like some of UMD unis. bengals also look cool and NYG get some special treatment with the second color as well!

I like it, I've always wanted to see the eagles in a silver uniform so I'm excited for that.  I wonder why the skins were not listed on that chart as well.  some of these teams really don't make sense tho:

- the cards in yellow/gold

- falcons silver

- KC is yellow??

- raiders in gold?

my friend is also a chiefs fan and he told noticed the chiefs and raiders play on a Thursday night game where these color rush games normally happen.  so unless the nfl plans on having a game where the chiefs are all yellow and the raiders are all gold then one of those teams will be changing.  my bet is the raiders would go all silver which would be pretty cool.

this whole sam Bradford situation is funny, last night his agent came out and said "sam is a competitor, but he wants to go somewhere where he knows he's the man."

umm isn't that a direct contradiction?  you are a competitor, yet, you don't want to compete for your job and want it handed to you. I guess I see bradfords side a little, I'd be pissed too if I signed a deal expecting to be a teams franchise QB and a month later they basically mortgage their future on a rookie.  but at the same time, don't sign a 2 year deal then if you want long term security.  he should have hit the open market, signed a 3-4 year deal with a lot less money for someone else and be the man there.

my gut says he does not get traded.  the 11M signing bonus is too much of a hit to just give him away and I don't think another team is going to offer the eagles anything in return that would make it worth it.  plus the eagles still want to win a division that is wide open, not to mention giving up a high pick next year, which means Bradford is the guy this year.  normally I would not be worried about a guy saying he's not showing up for voluntary workouts in april, but the fact we're installing a new offense and our starting qb is not there isn't good.  this draft is going to be very telling, if Bradford is not traded by Monday then I don't see what his next play is going to be, sit out the season?  then he risks getting benched and not playing at all which wouldn't help him.

just came here to say the same thing! damn! color me surprised. its obviously something very wrong with him... traded away from an eagles team for peanuts, traded for by the steelers and doesnt play, walks and signed with the panthers for the vet minimum then released 2 months later before even minicamp?

he really was pretty good when he was on the field, what in the world is keeping him from being on the field?

here might be way he looks like this:

It’s also sad and depressing. The latest comes from TMZ, which reports that “Manziel has become even more reckless with his drug problem recently — even blowing lines in front of people he barely knows.”

TMZ also cites unnamed sources close to Manziel who say that he “is going to die unless something changes soon.” Another source said that friends have confronted Manziel about his drinking and drug use, and that “[h]e flipped out and would not hear it.”

Manziel’s father expressed concern back in February that Manziel would not make it to his next birthday if he doesn’t get help. Since then, the situation apparently has gotten worse, not better.

dat boy fast

yeah haha dude is eaither a terrible driver or really good at escaping DUIs

looks like chip kelly

i would expect rex and especially bill obrien to be ranked higher. great article for this time of year thou!

yeah it does.  game wise its basically only summer baseball and the euro's for soccer.  drama wise NBA FA starts on Friday so that will be interesting, and the Olympics are a few weeks away right? 

All about Winter olympics, Skiing/Snowboarding events/Hockey/Speed Skating/Luge/etc etc wayyyy better

I do like Gymnastics in summer, basketball is bleh you know the US is just gonna dominate, not much else comes to mind quickly.... Swimming is boring IMO

yeah simone biles is supposed to be the best floor routine gymnast in like.. ever.
