Personally I love this rule. I am so sick of seeing blown calls for huge gains. The NFL definitely needs to adopt this rule. Good on the CFL for trying it out.Quote:

Yep. The NFL also needs to award the defense 2 points for scoring on a return of a failed PAT. In the NFL, a PAT is the ONLY type of play where only one team can score. That's dumb.Quote:

This is where I disagree IF you can't challenge PI calls. A 40 yard penalty is huge. If deserved it's one thing but a touchy or bogus call like that can be bigger than a turnover. Let the coaches challenge PI and then I'm cool with spot fouls.Quote:

I agree with that as well.Quote:

Y all here about Josh Gordon another failed drug test. Too bad. On the field he's an awesome weapon.
Just heard Marcellus Wiley talking about Andrew Luck on SportsNation. He said about Luck's mobility, "despite the paint color of the car, that car can move."
If a white guy said something like that about a black player, he'd be fired during the next commercial break.
Rush Limbaugh wasn't...he just resigned.
Granted some may argue applee to oranges, just an example, that was in early 2000's so different time..
ESPN should have known better than to hire that dumbass, shock jock, pill head, hypocrite to begin with which probably made it difficult to fire him (no one likes to hear, "I told you so" ). But yeah, different time.Quote:

the hell Cleveland ? :fp: I guess the dog pound is no more all because of Manziel and his $$ stuff..
Hey, at least he'll blend right in with the team when he shits on the field and the sidelines!

They added the mascot because of the dog pound which isn't going away. I don't understand this comment.Quote:

They named the dog "swagger" though? "Swagger" for shits sake.Quote:

I personally want Manziel for Week 1 and guys that look like my next door neighbor as the WR's he's probably throwing too. In all seriousness though as a Steeler fan I want him Week 1. Even with Pittsburgh's unproven Defense.
Couch was completely different though. Teams seem to go all in on QBs and never seem to want real competition. Unless you are a bonafide starter in this league I keep drafting QBs until I strike gold. The common thread in all bad franchises is bad QB play.Quote:

I really don't want to see them go back to L.A. but the need for two teams in the Bay area is questionable.
ESPN - Steelers will honor the late Chuck Noll by wearing his initials on their helmets this season.

Wonder if the NFLPA will appeal?
Think they appeal every single suspension. Hell Gordon hasn't even been officially suspended and he already has appeal date set for August 1st
The new girl on NFL AM Erin Coscarelli is nice but I miss Nicole Zaloumis. She was hot and good. Apparently she left last month to spend more time with her family. I thought she was just on vacation but when training camps opened and she wasn't around I knew something was wrong.
My favorite TV host chick is Holly Sonders from The Golf Channel :hump:
