I really liked the Riley Cooper pick by the Eagles.

Pretty big fan of the Perish Cox pick by the Broncos

Pretty big fan of the Eric Decker pick by the Broncos

Phillip Dillard had a torn ACL in 2006 then lost his starting spot on Nebraska, vowing to his dying mother to change his attitude and won his job back. I like this kid.

Dammit I called a rookie kid, I'm old.

How the does that architect keep finding work? That's almost as bad as some of the obstructed views in the New Yankee Stadium.

..OKay, it's worse.

You act like Tebow will even play this season. He's going to get paid a ton of money to sit on the bench and be 3rd string behind Orton and Quinn.

In other news, Jacksonville has continued to cement it's place as one of the stupidest teams ever. They dumped off John Henderson today.

Fucking horrible season ahead. I suspect a 3-13 record, but at least we'll get the first pick next year. Well, that's a bad idea because Gene Smith's dumbass will waste it on some shit player that he could have gotten in the 4th round. :nono:

Just booked flights to NYC for September. Gonna go to the Jets/Ravens game. Can't wait :D

I read an article today on NJ.com in which Pat Hanlon (of the Giants) stated that the 58 obstructed view seats have been taken out and never were intended to be sold.

Probably a big reason why McD went all out to get Tebow:

Quote:

"When I went to Gainesville Monday to work him out,'' McDaniels said, referring to his hush-hush trip to spend the day with Tebow, "we spent about seven hours together. We went over a lot of things. Now, understand that our offense is pretty complicated, and the terminology and the scheme is totally different from what he did at Florida. But about midway through my time there, we're going through plays, and he starts using our terminology. He's so smart about football that he was able to begin to speak my language and talk apples to apples. He'd already translated what he knew of our scheme into my words. That's something that carried a lot of weight with me.''

Tebow did in a few hours what it took Orton several months to do. Ridiculous

Pretty impressive I suppose, but, that needs to be translated on the field. It will be interesting to watch his development, to say the least.

I really like Tebow. He seems like a great guy. I think he's going to be good. But giving like 4 draft picks(???) up to Bmore for him? Thats a rape.

Was 3, and 2 of the 3 picks they used they had gotten earlier from trading down. So moving back into the 1st really only cost them a 4th

In a sign that the Broncos can never have too many good things going at once, Clady blew out his knee

Geez, so he'll either be out for a couple months or out for the season. Pretty big swing there.

In somewhat positive news, from an interview with Pete Carroll:

Quote:

Carroll also gushed about a first-round quarterback on whom the Seahawks passed, not once but twice. "I think anybody that got Tim Tebow had a good draft because I think he's going to surprise everybody," Carroll said. "And I think he's going to be a fantastic addition to a team. There's another guy that we would have really liked to have been able to add for the future because of what he brings. He will not let these issues about throwing motions and things be in the way. He will will his way through that if he's anything at all like I know."

The Seahawks coach likewise heaped praise on former Minnesota Golden Gophers receiver Eric Decker. "Very, very good receiver," Carroll said, "and we have a guy [previously] on that [Minnesota] staff, Jedd Fisch, who coached him and we knew all about him and really were hoping to get a chance to get him, too."

Clady's patellar tendon was only 50% torn. He already had surgery yesterday and rehab has already started. Out 3-4 months, good chance he's ready for the opener

<font color=goldenrod>Jeff Feagles hangs 'em up after 22 seasons. Played in each of the 325 regular season games, and never missed a playoff game either.

Amazing directional punter, but his time had come...had no leg strength left which spelled trouble everytime the Giants had to punt from their own end of the field.

If Ray Guy ever got into the HOF (which is really a crime that he hasn't...yeah he's a punter but he was extremely valuable and if it's a football position, there has to have been somebody who was the best at it), I could see Feagles being the 2nd punter to ever get in.</font>

that guy's mother is a prostitute

And his Dad is a pimp.

Sean Payton implicated in alleged Vicodin theft at Saints facility

Posted by Mike Florio on May 1, 2010 12:23 PM ET
On Friday, former Saints director of security Geoffrey Santini sued the team for constructive discharge. He alleges that G.M. Mickey Loomis attempted to cover up evidence that Vicodin was being stolen from the team drug locker by two senior staff members.

The lawsuit does not name the two senior staff members. Per the initial filing, Saints trainer Scottie Patton told Santini that one of the unnamed employees has a "painful medical condition," and that the other one does not.

Based on extensive discussions with multiple sources having knowledge of the situation but who have requested anonymity given the sensitive nature of the case, the two unnamed senior staff members are assistant head coach/linebackers coach Joe Vitt and head coach Sean Payton.

Keep in mind that these are only allegations. To date, no proof has been introduced linking either man to the alleged theft, unauthorized use, or abuse of Vicodin from the Saints' drug locker. It is our understanding that the matter has been referred to local federal authorities, and that the matter has been investigated. We don't know whether the investigation has been concluded, or whether it remains active.

Per our sources, Vitt is the staff member with the painful medical condition. Which means that Payton is the staff member who, based on the information provided by Patton to Santini, does not have a painful medical condition.

The Saints declined comment on the matter. Reach by e-mail, V.P. of communications Greg Bensel forwarded his statement from Friday, which initially was given to the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "I will not have any other comment nor will I be releasing these names," Bensel told us.

(Here is Bensel's statement from Friday: "A former employee who resigned just before the 2009 regular season threatened to go public with these unfounded charges unless we agreed to pay him an exorbitant sum of money. We refused and now he has gone public. We will aggressively defend these false allegations in court. We will not have any further comment on this matter at this time. Rather we look forward to welcoming our rookie players and want our focus to be on continuing our preparations for the 2010 Football Season and defending our title.")

We've been advised that settlement discussions indeed occurred before the suit was filed, but that an agreement (obviously) was not reached. The lawsuit filing indicates that formal service of the documents has not yet been requested. Once service occurs, the Saints will have a finite period of time within which to respond. Given that the claims implicate federal drug laws, it's possible that the team will remove the lawsuit from Louisiana state court to federal court.

Typically, federal court provides a more level playing field for business interests. Given the extent to which the Saints are locally beloved, however, Santini and his lawyer could have a hard time finding jurors in either the state or federal setting who will be capable of overlooking the fleur-de-lis that has been tattooed onto their souls.

You cut me deep, sir

Pac Man's a Bengal. Oh boy!

I'm sure coaches were impressed by his team spirit when he showed up in an orange and black jumpsuit.
