I got an e-mail today telling me I was on the clock. Acting as the Jets general manager (something I've envisioned plenty of times before), I had to pick for ...
Here’s a look at what SHOULD happen in the upcoming April draft.
1. St. Louis Rams: Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford
They’ve passed on Mark Sanchez and Matt Ryan in consecutive drafts; it is time to make a splash.
2. Detroit Lions: Nebraska DT Ndamukong Suh
While an offensive tackle to protect Matt Stafford might make more sense, this draft will definitely please any remaining Lions fans.
3. Tampa Bay Bucs: Oklahoma DT Gerald McCoy

2010 NFL Draft: Did Zac Robinson Just Surpass Dan LeFevour?
Posted: 24th March 2010 by Mack Bonner in NFL
Ever since watching this year's Senior Bowl, I've been struggling with the placement of Zac Robinson and Dan LeFevour in the quarterback rankings.
It is probably well-known by now that Robinson had one of the best showings at the Senior Bowl, and without a doubt, he was the most impressive quarterback on that day.
I really wanted to place him ahead of LeFevour then, just by what I had seen in that ...

Purple Gold and White, my favorite colors of the NBA. Best team of all time in my opinion.
The Lakers are the Franchise in the NBA with perhaps the most success maybe second to the Celtics. This is an article about The Lakers All time first team, second team, and third team. Very few teams even have one complete team with as much all time depth and success as ...
With their third pick in the 2010 NFL Draft... the 49ers select Chris Cook, Corner Back, Virginia.
At 6'2", 212 lbs., Chris Cook is the exact kind of player the San Francisco 49ers would like to match up with the bigger receivers in the NFC West like Larry Fitzgerald and T.J. Houshmandzadeh.
Ranked 55th overall by scout.com, a five star (out of five) prospect, Chris Cook could very well be around when ...
