There was an article written about this several years ago (complete with pictures). It referenced NFL and MLB apparel, and what happened to the losers gear. Rather than destroy brand new garments, the clothing is donated to charity. However, extreme measures are taken to make sure the articles...
Off the top of my head, I know that Julius and Thomas Jones are brothers. Not sure if Tim and Matt Hasselbeck are brothers or cousins. I'm sure there are others.
I'm sure there are a ton of women in NE who have Brady jerseys. Hell, Matt Leinart hasn't done crap, and there are plenty of women in Phoenix sporting a pink Leinart jersey. I'm just saying that the vast majority of football fans across the country don't give a rats ass if the football player in...
I think it has less to do with that, and more to do with the fact that your average NFL fan couldn't care less about how "pretty" a spokesperson is. I mean, does the average football fan sitting in a sports bar on an NFL Sunday, really care if the guy hawking DirecTV has GQ looks? And...
Yeah, I remember that game. Everyone was disappointed about the two teams losing the week before, but it didn't stop the hype machine. Everyone kept waiting for something, anything, to happen. They kept showing Jerry Rice. "He's a ticking time bomb folks! Just wait! He'll do something!" One...
Jimi, I'm as red, white, and blue as they come. But I guarantee you that the working conditions at the Burj Dubai site far exceed what workers were forced to deal with while building the Hoover Dam, the Brooklyn Bridge, the transcontinental railroad, the Golden Gate Bridge, etc. And I'm...
Aikman had 18 picks in each of his first 2 seasons. Two things I didn't know until looking at his stats: '92 was the only season he threw 20 or more TD's, and that four times ('89, '90, '96, '00) he finished a season with more Ints than TD's. Farve has had 12(!) seasons of over 20 TD passes (8...

Mike,
I know you already qualified your comments, so I don't mean this as "piling on." Just...
Damn, I had no idea Fargas played for UM. Just remembered him coming out of SC. But yes, it is funny to think of him tranfering to SC for playing time considering how ridiculously stacked they are at the position now.
Hopefully you're not using Michael Silver's latest hatchet job of an article as the basis for this comment. Silver was on Phoenix radio this morning, back-pedalling faster than Deion Sanders. Like I said, I'm not sure how long it can work, but so far both QB's are doing and saying the right...
Amazingly enough, the strength of the Cardinals this year has been the defense. They've yet to allow a hundred yard rusher (playing guys like Frank Gore, Shaun Alexander, and Willis McGahee), and just held the league leader (Willie Parker) to 37 yards on 18 carries. The corners are a little...
Actually, Irons was a second round pick for the Bengals. But it still sucks for him (and them), either way. Injuries are obviously the worst part of pre-season football. Everyone holding their collective breath, hoping they emerge unscathed and healthy to start the season.

The Chicago Bears have waived Tank Johnson. Looks like some of the owners are falling in line right behind the commish. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2916083
Waaaaaahhhh!! I don't buy it. As the head of the rules committee said during the press conference, NFL kickers set a new record for accuracy last year, at over 80%. Blaming a ball boy (not fans here at HTF, but that assistant coach) because your QB choked and couldn't handle the snap is stupid.
I don't think there will be a trade, but if there was, I think if would definitely favor Detroit. Neither team is even close to being "one player away", so getting the 37th overall pick just for moving down three spots seems like a no brainer. #2, or #5 and #37. I know which I'd want.
If I had to bet real money, I'd say that if the Cards make a draft day trade, it will be to move down and not up. They're not in a position to sacrifice first day draft picks for any player, much less multiple first day picks. At #5 they'll either have their choice of their top rated defensive...
Not what I heard at all. Unless you are a huge Cowboys fan, Irvin comes off as an obnoxious, incessant, know-it-all. I've heard it reported that both Steve Young and Tom Jackson (remember him calling Irvin "retarded" on national t.v.?) couldn't stand the guy, and that they almost came to blows...
