Brett Favre traded to the J-E-T-S…JETS! JETS! JETS!

Wednesday night marked the end of an era in Green Bay. Brett Favre, who has had the “itch” to play again for quite some time now, will be exchanging his forest green jersey for a darker shade of green. ESPN and Foxsports.com reported that Favre has been traded to the New York Jets for a […]

Big-time fantasy sleeper could miss up to three months

Big loss for the Denver Broncos as rookie running back Ryan Torain could be out two to three months after suffering a fractured left elbow during Wednesday morning’s workout.
Torain was carrying the ball in a nine-on-seven drill when he was tackled. As he fell, Torain stuck out his left hand to brace his fall and […]

What’s the real deadline for Steven Jackson to report to Rams (hint: later than you think)

When St. Louis Rams running back and holdout Steven Jackson didn’t report to training camp on Tuesday, it was reported that Jackson would lose a credited season towards his unrestricted free agency because he didn’t report within 30 days off the start of the NFL regular season.
That apparently is wrong, and it gives Jackson some […]

The saga continues - Brett Favre unhappy with Packers

Yesterday, it seemed like Brett Favre was going to be the slated winner in a quarterback competition against Aaron Rodgers. But today, we’re back where we were last weekend. Favre and Head Coach Mike McCarthy had a long discussion that went until the wee hours of the morning. ESPN’s Ed Werder reported that both agreed […]

Fantasy alert: Another top NFL receiver gets a two-game (minimum) boot

The Denver Broncos’ No. 1 receiver, Brandon Marshall, will miss the team’s first two games, at a minimum, when he is suspended by the NFL for violating the league’s conduct policy.
The suspension is for three games but can be reduced by one if Marshall, who has been arrested three times since last year and is […]

Brett Favre-Packers drama all a big tease

Wow, that was disappointing. The Brett Favre-Packers drama ended in a twist, but it was an unthrilling one to say the least. Wasn’t this supposed to be headed of a big, messy divorce with no pre-nup. But, it turned out be a-okay. Well that’s no fun!

Commissioner Roger Goodell announced Sunday that Favre would be reinstated […]

Maybe Dolphins are on to something: A depth chart by seniority!

So when is a depth chart not really a depth chart? Apparently the Miami Dolphins have the answer.
The Fins have listed Josh McCown as the No. 1 QB in their first preseason depth chart, but coach Tony Sparano says not to read a whole lot into that as he listed quarterbacks based on age, not […]

Brett Farve, Chris Farley And A Longing For Yesterday

I was spending time at my special lady friend’s house not all that long ago.  She had family and friends in town visiting from Columbus, Ohio (yes, Gator dates Buckeye… riots ensue).  While watching television, one of her younger houseguests was having difficulty recalling the name of “that heavyset guy” that used to be on […]

Could J.T. O’Sullivan really be the 49ers’ starting QB? Sad but true for Niners fans

When San Francisco 49ers camp opened not even two weeks ago, J.T. O’Sullivan was the odd-man out in the battle for the starting job, apparently leaving Alex Smith and Shaun Hill as the only two participants.
That made sense, as O’Sullivan was partly only signed by the club because he had worked with new offensive coordinator […]

Steve Smith’s anger issues mean Panthers will start 0-2

The Carolina Panthers open their season at San Diego and then are home against the Bears in Week 2. Why is this important? Because the Panthers will be without their best offensive player for those two games.
Can you say 0-2?
Receiver Steve Smith was suspended for those games by the team after a training camp fight […]
