Why Brett Favre Could Be Better Than in 2009

Posted: 2nd July 2010 by Chad Lundberg in NFL
Wow, a Packer fan actually saying Favre will outdo his performance in 2009. Who would have thought that? Every here and there I get a strong positive feeling for a player or a team. I don't mean I studied a particular player and then I feel like they're going to do good. It's just a feeling. The only two I had last season were that Favre was going to be as good ...

Posted: 2nd July 2010 by steeler junky in NFL
This subject has already been beaten up lately and I apologize if you find it some what repetitive. I am not going to write anything unkindly about any of the remaining Steeler's O line starters. Because I don't want to jinx the players, I do not want to write anything that will create questionable comments. Last month I wrote an article and mentioned that the Steelers best tackle Willie Colon ...

It's been reported that Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, Miles Austin, is courting Kim Kardashian. My initial reaction was, "Good for you, Miles!" Then, "You know, this may NOT be good for the Cowboys." Is the star receiver tempting fate with this temptress? Tom Brady has Gisele Bundchen, Hank Baskett has Kendra Wilkinson, Tony Romo had Jessica Simpson, and of course, Reggie Bush had Kim Kardashian. Although Tom Brady is still a Pro Bowl quarterback, ...

With Kurt Warner retired and Anquan Boldin heading for greener pastures, the Arizona Cardinals potent air attack has been reduced to the pair of Larry Fitzgerald and Matt Leinart for the 2010 season.  While the former name is only trouble for opposing defenses, the guy who will be throwing to Fitz could pose a serious fantasy threat to arguably the best wide receiver in the game.

Hard to Say Goodbye: NFL Vets and Their Comebacks

Posted: 2nd July 2010 by David cotignola in NFL
Every season, hundreds of rookies, veterans, and even a handful of "retired" players all lay it on the line for a chance to suit up on Sundays. The news of Bobby Taylor's comeback attempt had me thinking of a few other noteworthy players who stepped away from the game only to try for one last Sunday. For some, like Jamal Anderson, Terrel Davis, etc., the injuries were too much to ...
Having been in an unlawful predicament for such a hideous and despicable crime after brutally killing animals as an amusing activity and for money, you would have assumed that Michael Vick had an advisable conscience.

This is not what we expected from a man who paid his debts to society, more troubles off-the-field ...
