The announcers were saying that Polamalu plays 4 different positions during the course of a game and has to learn all the assignments for those 4 positions. They said he studies more than anyone on the defense. I really don't know enough about Samoans, in general, but Polamalu seems to have a...
I'm not sure the Bus gets enough touches in a game to be the MVP. I like Big Ben to win it if the Steelers continue to go to the air attack and win the game.
For some reason, Ben Rothlisberger has been immune to the usual caste system comments and insults. He has a cool nickname and the...
If it is a running play at least one of the lineman would have crossed the scrimmage line and the offense would get flagged for an ineligible reciever downfield.
The Broncos were on their own 2 yard line and threw a swing pass to Mike Anderson. Polamalu came flying up from his pass coverage and dropped Anderson, almost for a safety. It was one of the best defensive plays I have ever seen.
Here is a link from the same newspaper. It is an updated version but contains almost all of the same info.

Anyone see the pathetic commercial with Owens in it during the Steelers-Broncos game. It was for a cell phone company. I wish I could remember the company. A lot of nerve putting a pariah like that on. Hope they lose tons of business.
I think it was on NFL matchup. One of the guys mentioned that the Bears-Panthers game was one of the most physical games he had ever seen and wondered what the Panthers had left this week. I think he hit the nail on the head. The Panthers didn't look like they had any fight in them at all. The...
Big Ben is having one the best games of his short career today. If the Steelers continue to roll through the 3rd quarter it will be all over.The Steelers running game was struggling through most of the 1st half but Big Ben moves a little here and there then hits the open man. Great job so far.
Even though Reddick is over 40 points for the game the announcers just said Green of Georgetown is having a "Player of the Week" type game. Unbelievable!Edited by: GWTJ
I would put a lot of running backs ahead of Emmitt Smith. Backs like Walter Payton, Eric Dickerson, Tony Dorsett, Jim Brown, Gale Sayers and many others. Emmitt doesn't even make my top ten list. This is one example of stats being misused to define a players greatness. He does come in 2nd on my...
Just found this little nugget on WorldNetDaily. It's good to see our police force on top of things.

Only 3 years to solve this little problem.
If Sanders had the Cowboys "O" line for most of his career like Emmitt did, he might have 30,000 yards. And, if Emmitt was stuck in Detroit we wouldn't even be talking about him now.
So what if whites are in an advantagous position. It's not like the white race was born on 3rd base thinking we hit a triple. We did hit the triple.
As far as having 12 times as much wealth as a black person. Why not? We work 12 times as hard(at least).
As far as whites being 3 times as...
The one, all black(not half white or quarter white), NFL player that always impressed me with his demeanor, humble attitude, sportsmanlike behavior and off the field behavior was Barry Sanders. A true throwback.
Allen Faneca's flinch was barely even that. Add the fact that he was in the middle of the line and no line judge could have been expected to see it. When only slow motion, zoom replays can pick something up, it should not be held against the officials for missing something that inperceptable...
Bottom line is, the Patriots offense was stopped by the Broncos defense. Turnovers don't just happen, most times they are forced. Brady's inteception was forced, so were the fumbles. I also think Shanahan did an excellent job preparing his team.
I did feel like Vinateri's missed field goal...
I like "Happy Hour" the way it is. You never know what surprise lies ahead when you go into it. If it was broken down into sections, people might totally avoid the sections that don't interest them and miss out on some good banter.
