i was serious when i asked why leonard little is even allowed to be in the nfl this year. that is ridiculous. you kill someone while drunk driving 4 years ago, you'd think if you got caught drunk driving again you would be suspended at LEAST 4 games. way to set an example NFL
Between him and Romanoski, couldn't happen to a nicer guy. And by nicer guy, I mean....wait....I'm not really ready to get banned again, nor do I want bad karma to come down on the Panthers by wishing for others to get hurt.
There's a link to a Falcons message board where their fans are excited for the O Line to start chop blocking so they can injure people. Fans were pissed that they didn't chop block the Ravens in pre-season for ruining their year last year. Last I checked, football teams aren't a one man operation. I hate Falcons fans and VSPN. Vick's fun to watch on highlights, but it won't break my heart to see him.....wait....karma is a bitch.
Good luck to all NFL fans, I think I speak for us all when I say
ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!!

Yeah, can't smoke a joint at home, but you can drink and drive again after murdering someone while doing the same thing.
I totally agree, no way Leonard Little should be in the league. "But he has to be able to earn a living." Bullshit, earn a living at Circle K.

Don't worry, when he's actually found guilty he'll be suspended for quite a long time. Personally, I hope he's not found guilty. I want him to do this again and this time drive his own stupid ass into a wall.
I'm serious. I hope he dies a painful death as a result of his stupidity.

Yep, LL is a huge fucking idiot, if all this is true. I'll wait for it to play out in court before making any judgements on it. Until then, I'll enjoy his contributions on the field.
and yeah, turley may be out for the year. There have been a lot of conflicting reports lately, so i'm not totally sure since it keeps flip-flopping.

Quincy Carter will back up Pennington for the Jets. They just had the news conference on ESPN News and the reporters asked him 10 different ways why he got cut and Qunicy just keeps saying "You have to ask Dallas."
Will Marty be able to ruin Rivers in the one year he has left in San Diego?

Quincy Carter is now a Jet, here's the story. Also i haven't read the other posts but has anyone kept up with this Cowboys/Carter thing, man it's fucking strnge. First the Cowboys release his saying he failed a drug test and the rumors say hes on the whit girl, then the next day the media comes back and say it's weed, wihich IMHO is better than the white girl. Then about a week ago it comes out that the NFL didn't test Carter that the Cowboys did it, which is against the league rules. A couple days after that I hear the Cowboys owner totally deny that they released him over any drugs, but that they released him because, "We didn't feel Quincy could have made the team." I heard that shit and I almost drove off the road. Isn't that what training camp is for? Why not let him go through training camp and pre season, prove himself unable to make the team then cut him, rather than float all this shit about drugs. Looks to me like some shady shit is going down in D Town. What's has everyone else heard about the situation, where you guys live?
Jets sign Carter to back up Pennington at QB

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) - Quarterback Quincy Carter signed with the New York Jets on Tuesday, three weeks after his surprising release by Dallas.
Carter, who started every game for the Cowboys last season, was released Aug. 4, before the team's first exhibition game. Reports said he failed a drug test and the NFL Players Association has filed a request for arbitration in the case.
Countdown to 2004 kickoff
Leading up to the start of the 2004 season, we will bring you the scoop on every team in the land. Click here to find out when we visit your favorite team.
Gene Upshaw, the union's executive director, told The Associated Press that the NFLPA will continue to press the case. "We have to," he said, adding that part of the grievance involves potential salary loss to Carter.
With the Jets, Carter will back up Chad Pennington, giving the team an experienced second-stringer. Neither of the other two quarterbacks, second-year man Brooks Bollinger nor Ricky Ray, who played in the Canadian Football League, has ever taken an NFL snap.
Ironically, Carter; successor is 40-year-old Vinny Testaverde, who was released this spring by the Jets after starting 57 games in six seasons.
Carter, a second-round draft choice by the Cowboys in 2001, started all 31 games in which he played for Dallas, including 17 last season - 16 in the regular season and one in the playoffs. In his career, he has 507 completions in 902 attempts for 5,839 yards with 29 touchdowns and 36 interceptions.
Known for his mobility, he has run 140 times for 498 yards.

Well the cut him and be done with it, and tell people that's why you cut him. Don't let fucking rumors go on about how he's a fucking doper and that's why he was cut. That type of shit could have seriously screwed his career over. Love him or hate him i'm not looking to see a man get his fucking career wrecked because I think he sucks.
Fifty said:That's how dedicated to winning they are, they cut a guy for mouthing off.
Wait, they begged Antonio Bryant to come back and play for them even after he started a fight with another player and threw a shirt in Parcell's face. Yet they ditch Carter for saying something they don't like. Yeah they really want to win.
I would take Carter over Fiedler and Feely combined. We need someone who can run, and Quincy's an extra set of legs. Anyway, I wish bad luck on DJ Tet's team. How dare you curse the Atlanta Vicks? Fuck karma, nothing worse is going to happen to the Fins this year. So I've got lots of ill will towards lots of teams. It's time for some come-uppance. PEACE.

Do you guys want him back?
Might be the most interesting way to get your contract restructured.

Someone made a good point about what the media thought about Kalu before and after the injury.
BEFORE: "Starting at RDE is ND Kalu. Kalu was only able to come up with 5.5 sacks all of last season. Is he a 16 game starter? This is a question mark along the Eagles' defensive line."
AFTER: "Buckhalter's injury came within days of the loss of Kalu, who produced 13½ sacks the past two seasons. He's out for the year with a torn ACL, and that's a blow for a club looking to upgrade its pass rush"

Read a rumor yesterday that the Dolphins were interested in Jerome Bettis, and I'm listening to the Bill Cowher radio show now. When asked about whether any teams were interested in any Steelers backs, he said that there have been discussions (didn't say about or with whom) and those would probably increase as it comes closer to the season opening.
I don't much like that Bettis is still on the team. I think he's well past his prime, and may not even be effective anymore. But, he restructured his contract to finish his career with the Steelers. I'll be pissed if he would actually be traded. Now, that rumor said that the Steelers didn't want to trade Bettis because of a 3 million dollar cap penalty if they do trade him, but I would really hope that wasn't the reason they didn't entertain offers. It seems like a shitty thing to do, trading somebody who clearly wants to be with your franchise for the rest of his career.

Because Alonzo Jackson is a little bitch. Haven't you seen any of this preseason? Heh.
Also, I really hope teams don't discover this secret weakness of the Steelers. I mean, if they notice that Chad Scott can't cover Terrell Owens, they might take advantage of it!
Oh hell, Ben Roethlisberger and Dante Brown are in with the rest of the first team. This is great news, I was really disappointed that Brown didn't get a roster spot last year. I also want to see Ben against the starting Eagles D, he's been in really late up to this point.
edit: God dammit, the ESPN broadcast is a few seconds behind the radio broadcast. I just turned it on because I was annoyed with the TV announcers, and they called the end of the PI play that just occured in the endzone before Ben released the pass.

So did McNabb grease up before the game or do the Steelers just suck at tackling?
How retarded is the ESPN crew?
The Steelers announced that they'd be playing through the half with the starters.
The Eagles announced that the starters would play into the third quarter.
Paul Maguire and Joe Theismann keep predicting that the starters are done, and sound confused and excited that they are still playing.
Fucking morons. ESPN has this delay shit so I can't listen to anything but these idiots, I know it.
edit: And now Pat Summerall is pronouncing Verron Haynes as "Vernon Hayes". Terrific.

Cloudy said:Holy crap. Who is #34 on the Eagles lol?
Don't mind the Steelers defense. You know how most coaches don't want to show their hand to a team they will play later in the season? Well, the Steelers have clearly decided that they don't want the Eagles knowing that there might be tackles in the regular season.
