Tim Tebow is attempting a comeback, as a baseball player. That’s right. The former quarterback has been working out for almost a year in an effort to try to land a tryout with a Major League Baseball team. Why is Tim Tebow doing this you might be asking? Because he needs attention and this is yet another way for him to get attention. Tebow hasn’t played organized baseball since his…
The Patriots got some tough news yesterday after Rob Ninkovich tore his triceps in joint practices against the Saints. Ninkovich will not require surgery but he will be out until October. Make no mistake about it, the Patriots will miss Ninkovich. He plays all three downs and he can play out of a two and three point stance. His versatility is a big plus for the Patriots defense. Chris Long,…
By all accounts, it appears the Patriots may have dodged a bullet with Julian Edelman today after he was injured during a joint practice against the Saints Edelman tweaked his surgically repaired left foot but according to sources close to the situation, it does not appear at this time that Edelman broke his foot again. Sources close to the situation also reported that Edelman could return to practice as early…
The Patriots will be practicing with the Saints over the course of the next two days in preparation for Thursday night’s pre season game at Gillette Stadium. The two teams aren’t just practicing together because Bill Belichick and Sean Payton are buddies or because the Saints are in town and it’s convenient. They are practicing together because it’s a chance to compete against another organization. Joint practices and scrimmages are…
The worst kept secret in the NFL is finally out of the bag. Robert Griffin III is the Cleveland Browns starting quarterback. I hate to burst Hue Jackson’s bubble, but we knew he was the starting after the draft ended. Did the Browns think we were going to buy the false narrative that Josh McCown or Cody Kessler were going to compete for the starting job? Come on! I was…
The Hall of Fame game between the Green Bay Packers and the Inidianapolis Colts was cancelled after Hall of Fame President and Executive Director David Baker decided to cancel the game due to field conditions. Apparently some of the paint that was put down last night after the induction ceremony had hardened in the end zone and the middle of the field. Upon further inspection by the two teams and…
If you didn’t watch Brett Favre Hall of Fame speech last night, you really missed out. Favre was terrific and he proved once again that he is the last great character we will ever see play in the NFL. No disrespect to Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees, but they are boring compared to Favre. Favre played the game of football with a boyish enthusiasm for 20 years. He…
1. Last night’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony was awesome. Best class to go into Canton since 2010. 2. Brett Favre spoke for 36 minutes. If you missed it, you should watch it. He was great. His speech was funny and emotional at the same time. Favre is truly one of the greatest characters in league history. 3. No Rodgers, no Hundley tonight for the Packers tonight but who cares!…
I am 41 years old and I can honestly say that the 2016 Hall of Fame class is one of the best classes I have seen get inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in my lifetime. The class is headlined by Brett Favre who in my opinion is one of the five greatest quarterbacks of all time. Favre is a legend despite having some ups and downs during…
Seahawks defensive Michael Bennett and Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett are brothers. They are also two of the most outspoken individuals in the NFL. I don’t have an issue with being outspoken. After all, that’s why we have first amendment rights. What I have an issue with is using the ESPN platform to call out your peers. Why did the Bennett brothers agree to an interview that they knew would…
