Will New England Be The Fountain Of Youth For Fred Taylor?

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Rodney Harrison and Junior Seau drank Bill Belichick's Ponce de Leon Kool-Aid.  Looks like Fred Taylor is next.  One of the more unheralded deals on the first day of free agency was the Patriots signing Fred Taylor to a two year deal.  The starting job for the Patriots is wide ...

Dominique Foxworth Joins The (Still?) Big Bad Ravens Defense

Friday, February 27th, 2009

The Baltimore Ravens clearly have every intention of getting younger on defense, and in the secondary in particular. After cutting the high-priced Chris McCallister recently, and with CB Samari Rolle set to most likely join another team, the AFC runner-up made a move on Day 1 of 2009 NFL Free ...

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="234" caption="Haynesworth is a bad, bad man."][/caption] The Redskins haven't had much success signing defensive tackles to huge contracts.  Sean Gilbert, Dana Stubblefield, and Dan Wilkinson never lived up to the monstrous contracts Daniel Snyder gave them.

The Waiting Game Continues With Kurt Warner

Friday, February 27th, 2009

I don't know about you, but I never really thought there was much chance that Kurt Warner wasn't going to come back to the National Football League in 2009. I suppose I didn't much think about the possibility of him going to start anew somewhere other than Phoenix, but with ...

Looks Like Jon Runyan Is Done In Philly

If you're a fan of the Eagles and a sentimental football fan, it's a sad day.  First, there are reports that Brian Dawkins is signing in Denver. As of 6:15 pm ET, my sources say it's not a done deal yet.  (Update, sounds like it's done). There's also news that the Eagles ...

NFL Free Agency Under Way – Redskins Huge Early Players..Surprise!

Friday, February 27th, 2009

The Washington Redskins decided that last year's minimal dabbling in free agency wasn't fun enough for Dan Snyder and GM Vinny Cerato. They're back to their old ways in 2009 signing DT Albert Haynesworth to a mega deal worth $100+ million over 7 years. They also re-signed CB DeAngelo Hall ...

A Little Freudian Slip By Jimmy Kimmel

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Jimmy Kimmel is the talk show host of my generation.  I'm 38 and I've always related to his humor going back to his "Man Show" days.  Just seems like he would be fun to hang out with and he's a former radio guy like me.  His television show is set up just ...

Former Super Bowl winning Quarterbacks for the Dallas Cowboys - Troy Aikman and Roger Staubach - joined ESPN Radio Dallas on Thursday to talk about their respective playing careers, Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, and the leg work they've been contributing to help Dallas get Super Bowl VL. What? You think Aikman ...

John Calipari Eyes March

Friday, February 27th, 2009

Like they seemingly have done every year since John Calipari arrived in Memphis, the Tigers are once again steamrolling Conference USA. They are again undefeated in league play and at 24-3 and ranked #5 heading into the homestretch, Memphis has a great shot at a #1 seed in the NCAA ...

Mark Cuban’s Always Worth A Listen

Friday, February 27th, 2009

It's been far too long since we've heard Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban sound off on something or get in trouble for this or that. His Mavericks meanwhile remain in a race for playoff positioning. If the postseason were to begin today in the NBA, Dallas would find themselves in ...
