Ready for some football

By week 10 he'll have the Eagles in first place in the NFC East. McNabb will have his annual meltdown by week 5 and sit down and Vick will replace him. By week 8 McNabb will try again and get injured. Vick will take over and lead them to the promised land.
McNabb will announce his retirement in February, 2010.

I'm sorry folks, IMO, NFL just isn't REAL football. Its just a bunch of over grown children getting paid way too much.
Go DAWGS!!!

Aw, how can you say that, Mean? Why, San Diego's average QB Philip Rivers just signed a contract extension for six years for a measly $93,000,000. I'm sure he's worth every penny!

I heard that on the radio this morning. Mind-boggling ...

[CenTexDave]

I wonder how much Jim Brown would be making if he was in his prime and playing today?

[cityboy]

Whatever the highest-paid running back is making today ... just think, when Joe Namath signed a $400,000 contract, it was considered monumental ...

In 1982, I played football with a gent that would put every kicker in the NFL in mortal terror for his job. The man could place the football wherever he wanted from wherever he wanted, regardless of the wind. A pro team tried to get him under contract before he graduated high school. In one game, he kicked three consecutive between the uprights on kick off before the ref told him told him to quit showing off.

So what happened to him?

[CenTexDave]

Why, Chuck, he was so great that all the kickers on every NFL team took up a collection for him to ride off into the sunset to never be heard from again.

I lost track of him after the season. He wasn't in our squadron. He only played for us because his unit was too small to field a team.
