While I know there is always gonna be the possibility of some asshole deciding to lay one an opponent and thereby throw a wrench into the works, I still think it's a good thing. The Pats have been doing it for a while. Not sure, but this may be the first time for Washington. Any thoughts? |

(what about the fans? -well of course, it's capitalism - they mean fuc***ll) and though no other sane country plays this game, the winners of this cup competition get to call themselves world series winners. or something. ridiculous 'sport' for girls |

08 Aug 14 - 11:58 AM (#3649407) Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2014-15 From: John on the Sunset Coast I no longer watch any American football, except for UCLA games (when not on Pac-12 Network, which is unavailable to me); gotta be true to your school even 50+ years away. There are several reasons: 1) I'm not sure there really is a flesh and blood human being under all the padding and behind the masks. 2) TV has taken over the game. Way to many commercials. Inappropriate time outs. 3) The game has been taken away from the officials on the field. Too many stoppages. Destroys the flow of the game. I would rather an occasional incorrect call than checking disputed plays frame by frame. 4) Reasons 2 (especially) & 3 also apply to college basketball--I have no opinion about NBA, as I have not watched a game in about 30 years. The last game I attended was San Diego Clippers at the now old Sports Arena. |

08 Aug 14 - 10:55 PM (#3649527) Subject: RE: BS: NFL 2014-15 From: GUEST,jts Gnu, j-boy, Mudcat Canadians. I was excited when Gettleman took over as general manager of the Carolina, not in small part, because I read that he was an expert in scouting the CFL. The Panther's current roster includes not one, but 2 big Canadian Lineman who were first round draft picks in the CFL. Linden Gaydosh is a defensive lineman, on a team with a number of great defensive lineman, I'll be looking to see if he graduates past the practice. David Foucault is a very exciting player, with his size, 6'8", 305 speed and skill, Carolina is hoping to develop him to fill the very large and important shoes of all-pro Jordan Gross and protect Cam Newton's blind side. I will be watching him with great interest. Sorry CFL, but these two lads are going to make it more fun for me to watch the Panthers!! David Foucault game film |

Wes Welker suspended THE ASSOCIATED PRESS eNGLeWOOD, COLO. • The Denver Broncos will be without Wes Welker for the first four games of the season after the NFL said the receiver violated the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. Normally, the league announces such violations on Monday. News of Welker's ban didn't come down until late Tuesday, after the league offices had closed and the Broncos had already finished drawing up blueprints for their opener against Indianapolis, undoubtedly with Welker playing a prominent role. ESPN first reported Welker's suspension, saying the violation had to do with amphetamines. Welker told the Denver Post in an email that he was"as shocked as everyone at today's news." He noted he's meticulous about what he puts in his body and would "never knowingly take a substance to gain a competitive advantage in any way." The 11th-year pro who's been the NFL's top slot receiver over the last decade added that he never concerned himself with the league's drug rules but now realizes those policies "are clearly flawed." While it takes multiple violations of the league's substance-abuse policies to trigger a suspension, a four-game ban is issued for a single violation of the NFL's ban on performance-enhancing substances. Welker's suspension will cost him roughly $706,000 in base salary. Welker played a key role in the two greatest statistical offences in NFL history: the 2007 New England Patriots and last year's Broncos. |
