Shortline Bus Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share #29 Posted August 8, 2009 when u have to double and game plan for someone like to defenses have to do hell new england signed shawn springs just for him he is still considered an elite wide reciever terrell has the most tds over the last three yrs and he is still a gamebreaker That on repution only the only reason he still double teamed. In last few games of '08 season, "TO' dopped lot of passes and did not seem to have the HOF type speed he had 3-4 years ago. TO at that time almost singlehandely won the 2004-05 super bowl for the Birds vs the Pats while badly injuried. Yes Owens is still a very good WR and dangerous but he is not an elite one anymore imo.

Shortline Bus Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share #33 Posted August 10, 2009 No offense but other than hardcore NFL bettors and players auditioning to make the teams, very few people care about this warmup or any pre season games. This is further proof imo why the trainning camp games should be cut to no more than 2-3 games. And most important charge all NFL teams in pre season games should only charge, 1/2 price cost on tickets as they do on Broadway shows when the stars of the play or musical are not peforming. Most NFL Players now stay in shape 52 weeks a year unlike even just 30 years ago when many players had 2nd jobs in the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortline Bus Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share #34 Posted August 14, 2009 Whille the Vick signing in Phildelphia gets the most news attention, the other big story is that former Browns WR Donte Stallworth was suspended for rest of the '09 season. Stallworth who admitted and pleaded gulity to killing a man in Miami while drunk received only 30 days in jail. On this one, Goddell is correct imo in a long term suspension for Stallworth.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortline Bus Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share #36 Posted August 18, 2009 Guess who changed his mind again and coming out of 'retirement' again just 2-3 weeks saying his carrer was over? Bret Favre. Favre has signed with the Vikings. Favre is becoming this era Larry Holmes/Roberto Duran a future HOF player that never knows when to quit.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Broadway Local Posted August 19, 2009 Share #37 Posted August 19, 2009 One season after playing for us here in the A.F.C. East, #4 Mr. Brett Favre has returned to the N.F.C. North signing as a member of.....the Minnesota Vikings and changing his color from green to purple! Could be interesting when the Vikings play the Green Bay Packers twice. On Friday August 14th, the lost a close Preseason opener 23-20 at Giants Stadium to the Saint Louis Rams. Mr. Sanchez engineered a touchdown drive in this game. Two interesting things to watch: Mr. Micheal Vick as a Philadephia Eagle and T.O., Mr. Terrell Owens as a Buffalo Bill. Los Angeles (and Anaheim) continue to survive and do fine without a football team. Phoenix (Arizona) and Denver (Colorado) as well as Miami (Florida) continue to have teams in all four major sports and with an interesting use of the city/state name in all three. In Arizona, only the DiamondBacks and Suns are in the city of Phoenix; the Cardinals and Coyotes are in the city of Glendale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortline Bus Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share #41 Posted August 22, 2009 While the media atttention continues to focus on Micheal Vick and Donte Stallworth, another troubling incident in NFL has occureed. Read story. Source: Raiders coach Tom Cable tells Randy Hanson 'I am going to kill you' By Brad Biggs Associated Press NFL reporter. Friday, August 21st 2009 An attorney representing injured Oakland Raiders assistant coach Randy Hanson will turn over medical records at the request of the Napa, Calif., police on Friday that show Hanson's jaw is broken, multiple sources told the National Football Post. San Francisco attorney John McGuinn has been hired to represent Hanson, and police have been attempting to gain information from Hanson in recent days. Lt. Brian McGovern said earlier this week that if Hanson's jaw is broken, it could lead to felony charges in the alleged assault that took place at the Raiders' training camp facility. The source said Hanson suffered a fracture in his upper jaw and that he had to seek additional emergency room treatment Wednesday night near his home in Livermore, Calif., for lower jaw pain two weeks after the incident Read more: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/2009/08/21/2009-08-21_source_raiders_coach_tom_cable.html#ixzz0OvZWoDDE IMO this is a double standard by the NFL and Goddell. IMO Coach Cable should already be suspended and if this was the real world Cable is already fired. Any reactions?:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seeing the Raiders fall so low is such a shame, 'cause this franchise was such a proud one at one point. Agreed. Al Davis who at one time, was one of the best Owners/CEO's in all of sports is a joke now and needs to either sell the team or just let someone else run day-day business operations. The Lions are the worst team in NFL & maybe pro sports right now but at least they dont look like fools. The Raiders on other hand are an embrassment.

Shortline Bus Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share #44 Posted August 22, 2009 The South Flordia stadium home to the Dolphins and MLB's Marlins(until end of 2011 season)has a new name again. Oringally called Joe Robbie after the team oringal owner and in recent years Dolphins Stadium just in time for the upcoming super bowl in Feb another stadium change.

Shortline Bus Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share #48 Posted August 30, 2009 Ok shifting gears. With pre season thankfully ending this holiday weekend i now make my picks for the upcoming 2009/10 NFL season. It subject to change by week 2 if any injuries ie Brady last year getting hurt in week #1. So here goes as i list only the division winners and wild card teams. AFC East Pats North Ravens South Colts West Chargers Wild Card Steelers Titans AFC Surprise(Sleeper team) Bills-This year suprise AFC as Terrel Owens not the same great player as his days with the 49ers/Eagles 5-6 years ago, but will be on a "kurt warner' comeback type mission on a great season and start to get serious considertation for the NFL Hall of Fame. Will battle the Titans and Dolphins for last AFC WC spot if "TO" is on fire. Predicition for the Jets. 4th(last)place in AFC West. NFC East Giants North Vikings-Favre does not need to be the player he was even in 1999-2000 but if he struggles like at the end of last season w/ Jets, Minny misses the post season despite having maybe the best offensive player in league right now in RB/WO Adrian Peterson. South Panthers West Cardinals(they might win 10-11 games imo and might still lose in the 1st round) Wild Card Eagles Saints sleeper or suprise team in NFC. Bears-If the Micheal Vick 'experiment' falls apart in Philly,this is the team that will take the Eagles playoff spot. Cutler will do very well in Chicago barring injuries. Worst team in NFL for the season imo. Oakland Raiders. Those picks are my playoff teams and 'bonus' predictions for the upcoming pro football season. Way too early for super bowl talk so come back in late decemeber and i pick them for you lol. Feel free guys to make your NFL picks.:tup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
