Since this horrible two weeks is almost over, I will now address a couple of issues that has been brought up frequently. The idea that somehow the Patriots can go up tempo and keep the Giants from subbing is crazy. Have the media people not seen the footage from the Rams game? There will be a Giant that goes down when needed to facilitate substitutions

And there's no way Gronk is going to be the same with a high ankle sprain. That injury killed Bradford and Rapistburger, and they didn't have to plant and try and explode laterally. People see "ankle sprain" and think minor injury, when it's more akin to a sprained ACL

have they possibly changed the spectrum of the injury term with this one? Didn't Kevin Smith have a high ankle sprain and play a week later this year? He wasn't 100%, but that he played at all a week later shocked me.
 
Pretty revealing article on Antrel Rolle and his actually wanting out of the organization. I've said it before but it's amazing to listen to the turn around and his "buying in" to Coughlin's way of doing things. Good read:

Depends on the severity of the sprain. Personally? I expect to see a healthy Gronk on the field. So do the Giants judging by the comments from the players.

I think he's 100% and it's all mind games from BB..

The media=lol, the statement that makes me lol is, You give BB 2 weeks, so what TC only got a week?

Tom Coughlin has two weeks to prepare his team to play a hell of a football game.

Bill Belichick has two weeks to figure out every single possible way to manipulate every aspect of the game. He has probably spent zero time with the team. He's been out blackmailing refs, kidnapping Goodell's family, murdering virgin's in Bob Kraft's unholy name and raping toddlers at the alter of Pedoroia. He probably didn't even sit down to watch his cheater tapes until last night, and even that was delayed when Brady took forever to find his purse and panties and get out of the hotel room.

lol.

Need baseball asap.
 
What so eznark can root for his cheating team that doesn't have its best two offensive players from last season?! :jnc

Zack Greinke is back, mutha fucka! Prince was the third best player on the team. And that cheating douchebag won't be back for 50 games probably, so I don't need your tips on pretending to ignore how every game he plays in is essentially meaningless, just like New England.
 
INDIANAPOLIS -- Commissioner Roger Goodell says if the NFL puts a team in Los Angeles, it is probable the league would expand to 34 franchises.

Appearing Thursday night on "Costas Live" on NBC Sports Network, Goodell said the league "doesn't want to move any of our teams."

"We probably don't want to go to 33" teams by adding just one new club if a suitable stadium is built in the Los Angeles area, Goodell said. Instead, the league would consider adding two. An odd number of teams would pose scheduling problems, including at least one club being off each week, and would create one division with five teams.

There has been speculation an LA stadium could house two NFL franchises, although Goodell did not address that with host Bob Costas.

Goodell says there are several issues that must be solved in LA, particularly which of two current stadium proposals is best. He didn't suggest any timetable for returning to Southern California.

http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/nfl/...4-teams-likely-nfl-adds-franchise-los-angeles

So which city would take the 34th team?
 
I get the scheduling argument on why another would be good to add after 33, but division? Is there really a difference between 1 division or 2 division having 5 teams? I guess they could have 1 5 in afc and 1 in nfc, but imo that really doesn't change a whole lot unless they have top secret meetings on eventually having 20 team conferences or some other hocus pocus to water the leagues talent down. There already like a 1/3 to 1/4 of the league that has starting qb's that has no business in the NFL.
 
Philly should get a second team. I bet it would win a SB while Andy Reid is in his 22nd season trying to figure it all out.
 
I say ship Spanos, AJ, Norv and the Chargers up to LA and give San Diego a new team. The new franchise will probably win a title before the unholy trinity.
 
Fans to pick Next Madden Cover (again)

At Madden Bowl XVIII, EA Sports' Anthony Stevenson just announced that the cover athlete for Madden NFL will be voted on by fans for a second year. This year's field will be doubled to 64 candidates, and the first round of voting will be a "play-in" round pitting NFL teammates against each other to determine their franchise's representative in the second round through to the finals.

Ten bucks on Tebow winning.

It can be assumed that many stars from last year's tournament will be among those vying for this year's honor. One such player, Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, appeared on behalf of EA Sports this morning on several radio programs broadcasting live from Indianapolis. Tebow also was a guest last night on NBC's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Tebow was also the cover star for EA Sports' NCAA Football 11. If he's in the field, he would have to be considered the 1:1 favorite to win the whole thing.

Can God over come the Madden Curse?
 
I wonder who will be in the tourney. In the 32 slot one last year didn't they have a couple OL and even Seattle's 12th man moto bs
 
I thought it was Hillis and Vick?

Hillis upset higher seeds throughout the vote. Hillis beat Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice (the No. 7 seed); Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan (No. 2); Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles (No. 6); and No. 1 seed Green Bay Packers quarterback and Super Bowl MVP Aaron Rodgers to get to the final.

I'm going all Jerry Jones 50 concussions-crazy.

Edit:
The 10th-seeded Hillis overwhelmingly defeated Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick, seeded third, garnering 66 percent of the vote in the final of the 32-player bracket to become the cover of this year'’s version of the popular NFL video game franchise.

Definitely Jerry Jones symptoms...
