You people can say what you want...but Tiger is still the man to beat in a major.

A very insane amount of money, if those idiots are willing to pay, how can you blame Clemens for taking it? What do you expect, for Roger to say...I'm sorry but I can't accept an insane amount of money. Please

Just another example of the taxpayer getting stiffed while a major sports team owner gets richer. Would love to see the Twins ownership prove that they spend the added money they make putting a better product on the field.

Damn...I carry a 213 average, ND is not that far from SD where I live, I wish I would have known.

Before you guys totally condem Edge for this you should wait and see what else the Cards do. They have already picked up two o-line free agents and have a ton of cap space. The draft is just six weeks away.

It's amazing what happens to even the most successful and richest of pro sports once the greed factor kicks in. It makes me sick. Birk is right, this sort of stuff will put football back where it was before the last strike. The article says they are fighting over 4% (10 million per team). Out of the billions of $ the NFL brings in every year one would think 10 M wouldn't be that big of a deal. Maybe they should just donate that 10M to charity and call it even. Everybody comes out smelling like a rose that way.

Weedy...I used to watch. When my boys got old enough to sit and watch sports with me and go to a few games they asked me once why the players were always fighting. I didn't have a good answer for them. What would you tell your kids?

My point is this could be one of the reasons alot of other people don't watch either and hockey will never be more than a 3rd string sport. You are welcome.

Just one of the many reasons I can't stand Hockey and refuse to watch it. Nice piece of writing.

after all that success, when I'm at the helm, I sink the ship. He inherited a decent team from Holmgren and in less than 6 years turned it into what it is today. Has nobody but himself to blame for the downfall of the Packers.

Only time will tell, but I would be willing to bet the Packers won't hire Mooch because of my previous reasons for firing Sherman. Nice post Rhino as I was wondering where that question fit in with this thread anyway.

I was thinking it would be an easy way to get rid of an over the hill hall of famer without taking a PR hit with the fan base. They fire Sherman, Farve decides to call it quits and the Packers have a reason to go into full rebuilding mode. They do it any other way and the s**t hits the fan with the fans.

I don't have a problem with Benson leaving or running his team as he sees fit. Why drag it out? Just let him leave now. To do something like this to save the NFL's face is what I have a problem with.

Wonder how much money the NFL is paying Benson to stay for one year to keep from taking the PR hit. Wait one year then ram it to the poor bastards that live in New Orleans.

Farve is a class act, speaking as a Bears fan, I can't wait for him to retire. Anybody who would say he sucks should be at home watching Sponge Bob. Faulk was good but misused by two teams during his prime years. No way to know now how good he could have been. I worry that the Bears now have their own version of Farve (Grossman) only with just as many mistakes and not enough arm or receiver talent to overcome.

Why don't they just have all the teams make the play-offs, then they wouldn't need a regular season and we wouldn't have to watch this garbage for six months. Baseball is just around the corner thank god.

How can it be better? Spending Christmas day with your family and watching the Bears crush the Packers and winning the #2 seed for the playoffs in the evening. Merry Christmas everybody!

If somebody could provide scientific proof the a shot of B-12 can cause a positive test then I would believe it. Untill then, Raffy is just as big a cheat as all the rest of them.

Does that have anything to do with sports? Seems like a plug for Roger's business.

ESPN did a piece on this subject on Outside the Lines last season. The NCAA has been trying to decide what to do about this for several years, now that somebody has been killed, maybe the schools will do something. We all know that if they wait on the NCAA to do anything several more people will be killed or injured first.

Sure makes a person wonder how much longer any of us have. Hope his family will be ok.

Sure does ramble alot. I like stats as much as the next guy but all those numbers and the general ramble makes the article boring. Can't help to think he could have said all that in 2 or 3 pages. Proves nothing though.

I'd trade my job for a job in the NFL anyday!

Agreed...why should everybody but the athlete performing get rich? I say let them collect the prize if they win and put it in a trust untill they are 18 years old.

That makes a lot of sense, cut two sports that people watch, and leave in something really stupid like sync. swimming. Must be why I never watch or care.

I agree completely, don't hold your breath waiting however, you could get very blue in the face waiting that long.

It is a moot point at this time don't you think? If the owners and players can't get it together they can have a 10x10 net and it won't matter. They are commiting fan base suicide now anyway.

You have got to be kidding? I think drinking beer should be an olympic sport so I can get one of those gold medels. They won't let bowling in, what makes anybody think darts belongs anyplace besides the bar.

Just another swing and miss as far as I'm concerned. Jose is getting rich on a tell all roid book, why not Bonds ex hole? Everybody on earth knows Bonds was juiced so whats the big deal? Blah...Blah...ect.
posted by tdheiland at 06:46 PM on March 20, 2005
Seems a little high priced to me, considering they don't have an agreement with the players union. Have to wonder if this isn't a backhanded ploy by the owners to get terms they want from the players.

Vacaville HS vs Merced HS (37-36)
Your Money...You have to understand all of the people posting on this website are completely perfect. They have no time for anybody not worthy of being nailed to a cross. I liked the post, good for your school!
