Suspected NBA Referee's Games Hit the Over More Often

This whole episode confirms my suspicions all along about officiating in professional sports. Any event where ONE individual has control of the scoring posibilities has to much risk for cheating. It happens pretty much at every NFL game. Look at retired NFL referies, living in Multi-Million dollar homes, is the pay that high or is there other "incentivies"

Lineman, dead at 36, Exposes Brain Injuries

I've said it before here and I'll say it again "Upshaw has been a puppet for the NFL" put in as Playeres rep that has never done anything for the players. In the history of conflict of players vs. NFL Upshaw always finds a hole to crawl into. On a plesant note glad to here from "The old man" and obiously doing well, makes my heart feel good, would love to heare some stories.

Ricky Williams tests positive for marijuana again

The point about Ricky being "so rich" I think is uninformed, I was under the impresssion that the only reason Ricky was coming back is if he did not return he would have to give back millions he was given to play, as I understand millions he does not have any more. Anyone out ther have the figures?

Florida 41, Ohio State 14

To me it looked like one coach did a marvelous job or preparation, whereas the other was completly befuddled, unprepared, and worse could not come up with any counters to what his players were seeing on the field. Of course not to mention the friendly pressure from the Gator basketball team didn't hurt.

2007 NFL Draft.

just goes to prove "another list compiled by dead brain cells", Who in their right mind would pick a QB that had a mediocre season, lost soundly to any top rated team, just because he is 2 or 3 inches taller than the QB that went undefeated against top rated teams. Maybe ND or boosters have deep pockets to "buy" Quinn these positions. Only thing I can figure.

Bryant Gumbel in Trouble With NFL Network?

Like many above, not a fan, but at the same time, got to hand it to a guy that will stick his neck out and "tell it like it is", throughtout the years of NFL "CONFLICTS" with the players, when has Gene been out front of the players. Seens to me Gene has always looked like a big bad bear, but in reality is just a little pussycat.

T.O. in Big D

Would love to see THOUSANDS of footballs hurled at T.O.'s first dropped pass, THAT would be better than waiting to see what he does after his first TD.

America's Favorite Player Released.

Put yourself in the shoes of an owner for a moment, it would be tempting, the thought that signing T.O. for one season, might just be enough to get your team further than you've been before, but do you have a coach that would accept him, or players, would you have to put it up to a vote? For my money I'D PASS!
