Arrogance in Football
I wanted to make a few comments about the Bobby Petrino situation. I will not get into the right or wrong of what he did, the moral issues here. That is not for this blog. What I want to talk about for a few minutes is what I believe that this situation says. I love [...]

What A Football Season Coming Up In The NFL
Look at the story lines coming up this football season in the NFL: Peyton Manning’s come back (or will he?). Will Andrew Luck and RG III make it big time as rookie starting QBs? How will the Saints fare without their head coach? What will happen in New York with Tebow and Sanchez? And I [...]

Can We Quit Talking About The Football “Bounties” In The NFL—Or Should We?
This topic has been beat to death. The NFL has upheld the suspensions and the New Orleans Saints must now pay the price. Many of us are to the point of getting tired of the discussion and want to quit talking about this. But I ask you Football Nuts out there, should we stop the [...]

I Blame Both Sides In This Football Dispute
So the NFL Players Group (or whatever they are calling themselves) is reviewing the deal that the owners blessed. And once again there is posturing going on. The Hall of Game game has already been cancelled. And the first preseason football game is now in danger. I hear a lot of talk on the radio [...]

I don’t mean to imply that I speak for all football fans. But I can tell you this. When I have expressed my opinion that I am about to share with you, I ‘ve had about 100% agreement with those football fans I’ve talked to. But being that I don’t know that many (at least [...]

Cam Newton’s Silence: Innocence Or Something Else?

Have The Titans Not Learned What The Vikings And Patriots Learned?
So the Tennessee Titans claimed Randy Moss off of waivers. Now let me say this, Randy Moss is a heckuva football player. And over the years he has shown what he can do. But this latest episode has really proven the kind of person he is, or maybe has become.

Can Anyone In College Football Stop Alabama This Year?
Well, as a Georgia football fan, my season is over. So at least one team in the SEC is doing well. I’m not really a Nick Saban fan, but you have to give him credit for the job that he is doing with that football team over in Tuscaloosa.

Football Fans, Ease Up On Mark Sanchez
Let me start by saying I am not necessarily a Sanchez fan. My man Stafford from UGA is the main new quarterback in the NFL that I’m pulling for. I’ve always thought Sanchez was maybe a little too much a pretty boy and thought real highly of himself. But boy is he catching it afterMonday [...]

Was The Holdout By Darrelle Revis Good For Football?
The holdout by Revis has been talked about and written about a good bit, but I haven’t heard this question phrased quite this way. But I heard someone ask it the other day and I found it very, very interesting. Is a cornerback getting this kind of money (like quarterback money almost) good or bad [...]
