    Boivin's Alan Branch Article

    Swann might have been named Erica later on in his career, but the dude was probably the most explosive guy in football (for a yard or two). I still remember Keith Rucker and Swann just smashing through o-lines. Rucker & Swann = Watson & Branch????

    Surry County Prosecutor Simply Trying to Let Vick Off, IMO

    My wife and I have mastiffs and so we have a tender spot in our hearts for the big lazy bums..... Anyhow when we were stationed in TX we found an adult male wandering around the counrtyside who was beyond malnourished and just looked pathetic. As members of mastiff rescue we took it upon...

    And you wonder why I despise the U?

    The only place I was exposed to this dog fighting crap was Virginia.... and it's kind of crazy because I lived on the Hampton/Newport News border about 1 mile from Mike's HS. You see, I have a pair of English Mastiffs, one weighs around 190lbs the other around 240lbs. In the two years I lived...

    Incidently, I couldnt find anyone's name associated with the team-by-team write-ups (the perpitrator of the quote above). Interesting...........

    Don't waste your time with their description of our draft.... "The Cardinals grabbed one big, inactive tackle from Michigan to replace Watson, another Wolverines bust" Ummm..... whatever..... They give a bit of love for Davis and there is a Kirwan write-up on page 4 talking about how...

    Peterson Injury - Somer's take

    Ummm.... broke mine in my sophmore year (compound, through the skin). And that was in May. By August I was wearing pads and hitting again. 16 years later having played every sport under the sun, went to many military training commands (most notably Navy dive school and survival training...

    If we take AP, what then is the plan?!

    Blalock? He's in the mold of the Steeler T's. Quick but not terribly fast. Stout and strong. Ohhh yes, and regardless of what he's projected to be he's played tackle.

    Draft/Contract Question

    John Elway did the same thing if you can recall that draft.....

    Draft/Contract Question

    Well... Eli was the #1, but you know what I meant.

    Draft/Contract Question

    Agreeing to terms in principle is not the same as signing a contract. So I think we could start negotiating with the 150th ranked player if we wanted to (or rather if their agents let us). It's just an assessment of their desires to play for a given organization. Why do you think phones are...

    Video: Pat's Run

    San Jose is at the end of the month (FYI). $35 at the gate, I think. I'm either taking my 2 girls in a stroller or seeing if I can set the Old English Mastiff all-time record for the longest walk (for anyone who knows the breed they are NOTORIOUSLY LLLLLLAAAAAAZZZZZYYYYY). The few minutes I...

    Wednesday Notes

    I was onboard the "get an OLB" club this spring. Never even conidered moving a pro-bowler out of his current position to fill that need. Wilson at OLB???? If I could swallow Cato June I suppose I should accept Wilson as a very viable option at OLB. But does that mean our playmaking OLB...

    Great Article: For All You 40 Time Hype Men

    Yep Mike.... brown shoes.... P-3s.... But recently (thanks to some stellar navy vaccinations) I had an autoimmune response and developed type 1 diabetes. So, they sent me to NPS in Monterey as an admin transfer to EDO. Shore duty for 8 more and I'm done brother.....

    Great Article: For All You 40 Time Hype Men

    From your resident Physics geek: 1 meters = 1.0936133 yards so, Johnson's 100 meter run was really 109.3 yards.... or rather his 40 was 43.74 yards (about Edge's rush average past the 40 yard marker.... LOL). So if Johnson was running 40 meters in 4.4 seconds, then he was doing 9.94 meters...

    Team speed: Will we address it?

    But Jerry Rice was also the best route runner of all time. When you don't have "perfect" skill, speed can usually make up the difference.

    What was the worst officating call of the 2006 season for the Cardinals?

    A bit of a change of subject... But does anyone remember the raping of Rob Moore v/s the Cowpies that ended one of the greatest combacks in Cardinals history? It was the November 1998 homegame and we were down bigtime at the half. I think we outscored 'em like 21-7 in the second and got pretty...

    What was the worst officating call of the 2006 season for the Cardinals?

    Rackers kick v/s San Fran on Christmas Eve... missed by 1-2 feet and was called "good". I think we beat this one up at the time, but I was sitting right in the path of the ball in the 14th row and it didn't look good.

    The Combine IS A WASTE OF TIME

    Don't recall the source but once (recently) read about agents introducing underclassmen to "combine-ologists" going into their junior and senior years for tips on how to train - then hiring these guys as full-time consultants for the players (sometimes as high as $10K) between the bowl games and...

    Wiggins.... Wiggins.... Wiggins.... Despite 1000 different reports of Pope being big @ 6'8", I've not heard too many "experts" say much about Pope. Big, slow, and average blocker are some of the terms I've heard. I know many folks will have evdence to the contrary, but in years of watching...
