I know the way Brett was brought in wasn't right; it does absolutely no good for a football team to have this issue hanging over its head for months on end. We've seen how it affected locker rooms in Green Bay, New York, and now there are early rumblings of ...

I probably have more respect for Jeff Fisher than any other head coach in the NFL. I remember watching him coach Buddy Ryan's 46 defense at the ripe old age of 30. Say what you want about Buddy Ball, but they got after it on defense. You can learn both ...

So, Quentin Richardson and Dwyane Wade are apparently very close friends. Is this all part of Pat Riley's plan to try and please Wade, just to sucker him in to signing a contract next summer? Either way, it's not good enough Pat. You'll have to do better than Q-Rich. Will ...

Another year, another quarterback "controversy" in San Francisco; I throw the word controversy in quotes because there is absolutely nothing controversial about it. The Niners know what they're getting in Shaun Hill - what the 29-year-old can do is be average. Fairly solid, but nothing spectacular. From an outsider's perspective, ...

Nick Collison has gone on record as saying that he was disappointed when the Seattle Supersonics were uprooted from their foundation in Seattle and displaced to Oklahoma City last off-season. As a Seattle resident, that makes two of us Nick. For some reason, this now has become a major story, ...

Very few know what's going on inside the Broncos' locker room, but if history tells us anything, there are issues which have alienated Marshall. We saw Jay Cutler go through incidents where he felt like an outsider and that eventually led to him being dealt. It seems inevitable that the ...

We live in a society where the 'manliest' of men aren't afraid to trade in their cleats / fight gear / shoulder pads for some dancing shoes. For the first time, a UFC fighter, Chuck Liddell, joins the Dancing With The Stars roster (this fall's cast also contains Michael Irvin). ...

Ron Artest is hilarious, but sometimes he needs some editing. Not editing in the sense of censorship - gotta keep that - but more like cutting out the fluff. Ron loves to chat, he just goes on and on like Tracy McGrady dribbling out a shot clock. But, cut out ...

One year wonder or legitimate starting NFL quarterback? How Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel performs in 2009 and beyond will go a long way towards answering that. After filling in admirably for injured Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in 2008, Cassel signed a lucrative free agent contract to bring some ...

Former Packer 'mate Mark Chmura feels like Favre knew he was returning all along and I can't disagree with that, but Chewy also feels like Favre isn't in game shape. Now, I know Brett hasn't been at camp but he must have learned his lesson from joining the Jets huffing ...
