ESPN - Letter signed by 50 U.S. senators sent to Roger Goodell urging NFL to "endorse" Redskins "name change".
I don't see how this will never happen. It just keeps growing legs.
It's not growing legs. People are just ignorant and don't understand that the name was never meant to mean anything but respect towards Indians. And as long as the NFL tells them to go take a long walk off a short pier, absolutely nothing will change, therefore, it will never change because the NFL isn't stupid enough to force the second richest team in it's league to change it's name.
Coming to a NFL stadium near you, Long John Silvers and his Vienna Sausage. :D :D :D
I do, and always will, think Pete Carroll is a sleezy, lying sack of shit.
That said, very nice move by Seattle.

That was very cool.
Damn pr stunts for seattle .
ESPN - Hall of Fame QB Dan Marino reportedly joins thousands of former players suing NFL over concussions.
Hard up for cash, Dan? I mean, seriously, of all QBs, he NEVER got hit. :rolleyes:
Dan lost his job and might be hard up for cash.
ESPN - Dan Marino to withdraw from concussion-related lawsuit against NFL - South Florida Sun-Sentinel
I'd guess he was either:
A) paid off
B) told he could not be part of any NFL TV anymore
C) threatened by the Goodell Family
D) All of the above
Don't think his was necessarily about the money..even though it in the end has to deal with money. Think these guys are getting afraid of the symptoms they or other players who have played are starting to have and want someone else held accountable maybe.
Is anyone else sick of Peter King? I rarely read his MMQB anymore. He's biased at times (crazy how much he'll defend Jeff Fisher and act horrified that Dolphin players would joke about having sex with JMart's sister) and I don't think he knows his actual football overly well. He's a story spinner. Certainly he has good sources and I think his actual writing skills are top shelf but his personal slant on things can bug me.

Kaep just got paid 110/6 years 61 of guaranteed. Fucking damn .. He doesn't dersve that big of a pay of guaranteed money. shit.
If you don't want to pay your QB someone else will.
Same for Joe Flacco
He was highest paid QB just a season ago. He isn't a top 5 QB either. Granted his pay day came after a Super Bowl, still. Speaking of which just seen the players voted him in at #58 off last season lol. 19 touchdowns and 22 interceptions...
This is the age we live in. It will get restructured down the road likely.
Mors, you can't forget that the cap is expected to go up another $30 million over the next 3 years. These contracts recognize that. Jay Cutler got $17M. Forget elite QB, NFL teams are paying $15M+ for guys they think are bonafide starters they don't have to worry about. QB is the only position a team can't simply upgrade in FA. It's crucial, everyone knows it and everyone pays for it.
I heard something where the $61M guaranteed is a misnomer of sorts. It's broken up throughout the years and he would still have to earn it? Maybe I heard wrong.
Not sure but when it's time for Andrew Luck's deal it will surpass it.
That's the way it works.
And Rudy hit on the head regarding paying for guys they feel are starters. In their mind they are elite whether the market dictates them as so or not.
Russell and Cam will probably pass that too.
:+1:
If you have a QB who knows and can run your system, is very successful at it, and is also very young, that is like finding a mix of diamond and gold. GM's and coaches will do anything to keep that player, because it's not like you can just find/draft someone to plug in.

I'd say the advantage goes to Manziel here....
Just watching the two Manziel was more elusive. Tebow was FB type really.
I love me some Redskins too!

The CFL is allowing coaches to challenge pass interference calls this year. I hope it goes well. Certainly the NFL will monitor this and possibly change their rule next year. You should be able to challenge anything imo. You only get two challenges.
Dion Jordan suspended 4 games for PEDs. Miami is nothing but mediocre. Sick of this junk.
Maybe that's how he bulked up like I kept hearing this summer.
Joking of course, a lot is considered a "PED" in all these supplements you can get over the counter with the slightest trave of something that is banned.
Have to employ of chemist or whatever just to buy supplements
