Antonio Pierce, a linebacker who played for NFC East rivals in the Washington Redskins and the New York Giants, retired on Thursday after being cut from the Giants. Pierce was an undrafted free-agent in 2001 and signed with the Redskins that same year.

What do San Diego Charger fans and Rodney Dangerfield have in common? We get no respect. From other teams it's acceptable. Yeah, we know your new mediocre quarterback is gonna change everything. All of your rookie picks are going to be awesome, and Mathews will fail. We will lose all of our stars, yadda yadda yawn. It gets old. If all speculation fails, brag about trophies of decades past. We roll with the punches ...

First let me preface this by saying I am a Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Indians fan, so you might dismiss what I am about to say because you think I'm a bitter Cavs fan too. I'm not, when I was younger I lived in Seattle and became a Sonics fan, so I think I am pretty neutral when it comes to the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron's decision last night. What does ...

With this years NFL season right around the corner, many of the young stars of the league entered into the pre-season training to get some fine tuning. One of the expected stars of the Philadelphia Eagles has shown tremendous progression this off-season. Lesean Mccoy looked extremely sharp on his jukes, and looked pretty quick off the draw on some of the snaps that were given by Kevin Kolb. The only question that remains ...

Being a fantasy player who isn't fortunate enough to be part of a keeper league, I got to thinking about older players whom I wouldn't be scared to draft. Try as I might to stick to position players, I was forced to use a few IDP's (individual defensive players, if you've never played an IDP league I recommend giving it a shot at least once) and several.....ummm, kickers. ...

I was given the task of evaluating the free safeties, and strong safeties for the 2011 NFL draft for DraftTek.com. The “Tekkies” wanted rankings for each player’s primary position, and rankings for each player’s secondary position. So, off I went on my strong and free safety stats hunt. Spreadsheets were constructed. 64 players were evaluated on 2009 tackling skills and ball skills. The free safeties and strong safeties were segregated according ...

This time last year was a time of uncertainty for the Eagles.   All Eagles fans were praying for the man who was the mastermind of the Eagles defense for over a decade. Of course I am talking about the Philadelphia Eagles one and only:   Jim Johnson Jim Johnson was suffering from a case of melanoma (first diagnosed in 2001), which was reported earlier in the 2008 season as “problems” with his ...

It is widely assumed that new Oakland Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell is a much needed upgrade than the draft bust that was JaMarcus Russell. It is clear from both mainstream media and Oakland Raider fans alike, that if Russell were to stay with the Silver and Black, the team and franchise would continue to plummet. Luckily, the Oakland Raider franchise has come to this realization as well, cutting ties with the ...
