By oddJoe ⋅ February 5, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

A judge ruled this week that incarcerated quarterback Mike Vick can keep the lion’s share of his $20 million in bonus money, awarding just $3.75 million to the Atlanta Falcons in an arbitration hearing. Chalk up a victory for the little guy.
I mean just because Vick is spending the next 23 months in federal prison […]

Will Someone Please Stop Arthur Blank From Hiring College Coaches?

By oddJoe ⋅ January 10, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

There are some people who should not be allowed to pick the color to paint their own houses and there are other people who should not be allowed to name their own children, but then there are people who should not be allowed to hired their own football coaches. Arthur Blank is clearly one of […]

Matt Ryan’s NFL Audition

By GibbyZee ⋅ December 29, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Boston College won its eighth consecutive bowl game yesterday, besting Michigan State 24-21 in the Champ Sports Bowl. More importantly, though, Matt Ryan gave all the pro scouts something to look at throwing for 249 yards and three touchdowns. Now I don’t claim to be any draft board Svengali like a certain oil slicked hairdo […]

Darren McFadden Sweepstakes Leaderboard

By oddJoe ⋅ November 8, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Arkansas running back Darren McFadden is quickly climbing up the charts in terms of the 2008 NFL Draft. The junior speedster put up 321 yards against Steve Spurrier’s Gamecocks on Saturday, bringing his total to 1,314 yards and 12 TDs for the season.

Glenn Dorsey Sweepstakes Leaderboard

By oddJoe ⋅ November 2, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s probably far too early to say who will be the #1 pick in the NFL college draft next Spring, but the small snippet of text free to view from ESPN Insider claims artful draft board dodger Mel Kiper Jr. has put LSU defensive standout Glenn Dorsey at the top of his list. Sounds good […]

Here we are in Week 7 of the NFL season and we already have a pretty tight race at the bottom of the standings to see who will be first to the podium in the 2008 NFL Draft.
The Miami Dolphins and the St. Louis Rams are both winless and leading the way, but the […]

I Thought He Said No More About Dogfighting?

By oddJoe ⋅ August 22, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

I know the other day I was pleading for everyone to just shut up about Mike Vick and the dogfighting, but something new came to light today that deserves comment and I just couldn’t contain myself. Shame on me for lack of will power.
The thing that deserves comment is a statement from R.L. White, the […]

What’s All This About Dogfighting?

By oddJoe ⋅ August 21, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Okay, so now Mike Vick/Ookie/Ron Mexico has pleaded guilty to federal dogfighting charges, let’s get on with the football season then. Who’s with me?
Tony, Toni, Tone are you down with the program? Let’s just talk about players not suspended for dogfighting and games that matter to the playoff hunt. No? Jaws? Tirico?
Peter King, you must […]

Best Damn Mike Vick Putdown Video

By oddJoe ⋅ August 1, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

We might all hope and pray that at some point we’ll be able to open the sports page and not see some story about dogfighting, but I’m pretty sure it’s not going to happen any time soon. Whether he’s guilty or not (and let’s remember we don’t really know yet), I think the fact that […]
