QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 9, 2014 -> 09:44 AM) Last night I watched 34-year old Larry Foote blowing up run lanes and disrupting all over the field. He was signed to a 1-year 955k contract. I honestly cannot believe how completely invisible our LBs are in plays after hearing that our new dline responsibilities were to create lanes for them. You should get a good look at the Packers ILB. Ranked worst and second worst last week from PFF. There is talk that the Ravens want to trade Arthur Brown. If I was Ted Thompson. I would be on the phone getting that trade done.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 03:55 PM) I have yet to hear anyone complain about the San Fran player who BEAT UP HIS PREGNANT WIFE and wasn't suspended. Hell, he was allowed to play yesterday. People are and will be. Same goes with Greg Hardy.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 01:29 PM) Wow, what an overreaction. But I don't feel bad for the guy. They have to pay out the remainder of his contract right? Overreaction? You are the only person I've heard say this today.

Good. I Hope he never plays again.

@AdamSchefter Big news from @mortreport: Ray Rice released. Finished with Baltimore.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 11:22 AM) LOL: http://jezebel.com/if-you-care-about-women...5/+laceydonohue Jesus our society sucks so hard. So, so hard. This, liberals. This is the segment of your party that is equal to the religious right. Both are bat s*** crazy and ruining this country. Why are you bringing politics into this?

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 09:21 AM) Britt looked good too. Missouri has a 100% hit rate, everyone is awesome. Nobody sucks, certainly nobody threatens to have a bomb in an airport. +++ Gosox, I agree. Their organization, top to bottom, seems to be 100% on the same page. Reminds me of the spurs how everyone when interviewed hits the same points, talks about how much they love it and how they believe. Certainly doesn't hurt that they also feed them PEDs in their water. Lastly - that TD play to Lockette was totally taken from Auburn's playbook. It's scary how well that worked at the NFL level. Seahawks GM John Schneider can do no wrong right now. He's said his dream job would be GM of the Packers. I really hope that happens one day. His parents still live in Green Bay.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 09:54 AM) Well you would know better than me, but from what I read, they are pretty enamored with Tretter, which is why they let Dietrich-Smith walk and were forced to start Linsley in the first place last night. I thought he handled the pressure/noise pretty well, although there was one play where the whole line was pretty pissed at him...I think he snapped the ball at the incorrect time and there was a fumble or almost a fumble, but a penalty bailed him out. Tretter has also looked good, but he can't stay on the field. Tretter has also played every position on the oline between college and the NFL. So he could be used as a super sub. Which they really need right now.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 5, 2014 -> 09:47 AM) He's only starting because their starting center got injured 2 weeks ago... Yeah, but I'm starting to think he won't give it up for a while.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 11:12 PM) Loved my boy Linsley though. 4 of the 6 OSU draft picks are starting in the NFL. Pretty damn good hit rate. Linsley looked great yesterday. I think he will start for them for a long time.

Seahawks are an absolute nightmare at home. If they stay healthy, no team will go into Seattle and win. Sherman and other guys get all the talk, but Bobby Wagner is a beast. I think he should get talked about as one of the best ILB in the NFL.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm worried about the game tonight.

It's too early to tell with the last two Emery drafts, but that first one was a disaster. Second one isn't looking to much better.

Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are just so boring. Joe Buck calls championship winning plays with the excitement of a team winning a preseason game. Troy Aikman was also one of the most overrated players in the history of the NFL. He shouldn't be in the Hall of Fame. Not sure what that has to do with his announcing, but it does.

Troy Aikman and Joe Buck are by far the worst announcers. Maybe ever.

@RapSheet #49ers LB Aldon Smith has already appealed and lost. So the 9-game suspension is final.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 03:15 PM) SI reporting Aldon Smith is suspended for 9 games. Smith 9 games. Bowman out probably around the same. 49ers defense might not be as good early this year.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 11:33 AM) Also, are TV ratings really an issue in September even if the weather is nice? Not with the NFL. They can put a game on whenever they want and it will do well.

I can't believe it's less then a week till the regular season starts.

Some of those rankings are pretty bad. Raiders as the third worst LB core. They have Sio Moore and Khalil Mack. Those two alone probably put them in the top 15 or so. Nick Roach is also a solid player.

I can't stop watching The Simpsons.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 05:50 PM) Even if they're not great...those 3-4 big Nose Tackles are really hard to find. That might be the rarest person in the NFL. If there were more of those guys I think more teams would run 3-4 exclusively. They aren't quite as important as they used to be, but still you need a big man in the middle. Luckily the Packers have a bunch of them this year. Does suck for Raji though.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Aug 20, 2014 -> 07:01 AM) Have you seen who the MOntana Democrats have picked to run for the open Senate seat now that Walsh withdrew in disgrace? I don't get this video. It shows clips of her video blog.

"Those people are so Barbaric!" says the person living in a country that has bombed multiple weddings.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Aug 20, 2014 -> 12:34 PM) No, but I don't think referring to a nickname of a football team is equivalent to using a racial slur. Calling a Native American a redskin is a racial slur. Just because a football team uses it as a nickname doesn't suddenly make it not so.
