    Dez's contract situation may turn ugly

    I'm usually pro-management on these things, but in this case I feel a little bad for Dez. It's like the team is using his love of football against him. If he didn't care as much and love football the way he does, they might take these holdout talks a little more seriously. But instead it's...

    Ranking the NFL coaches: Code Red No. 16

    Funny how almost all the guys in the last group, minus the ones just starting, have won more than Red has. I thought LeBreton said it was all about winning?

    Ro McClain fails another pee test, suspended

    Four games. Always said this guy couldn't be trusted. We just got lucky last year. But hey, RKG. Not a thing wrong with him "rehabbing" back home where he wanted to be.

    Can You Represent?

    I've never understood trash talking. Talk is cheap. And if someone wants to root for another team and think they're the best, why do I care. About the only thing I'd really defend on this team is Romo. But even then, when I've heard some moron at a bar call him a choker or terrible or...

    Dez's contract situation may turn ugly

    That's from a regular season game in September. Doesn't count.

    Anyone else surprised no one else took a chance on Hardy and/or Gregory?

    Pep, I don't think we have any special ability to withstand bad PR. If anything, we're going to get more bad PR than other, lower-profile teams because we're so newsworthy, good and bad. I think Jerry just made a decision that we aren't going to care about the PR, because it really doesn't...

    Anyone else surprised no one else took a chance on Hardy and/or Gregory?

    ^ I thought that was why we did get him, because only Jerry could hook him up with Throatzilla. But why are you not surprised no one else touched Hardy? Don't you think we got our little PR hit (very minor), we'll get another one when he comes back, but in the end it won't really matter...

    Dez's contract situation may turn ugly

    Yes, that's kind of the way it goes. Barring a serious injury or character concerns or a player getting older, the top players get the highest contracts. Then as newer, younger, better players emerge, they get even higher contracts as league revenues and the team caps go up. As far as whether...

    Anyone else surprised no one else took a chance on Hardy and/or Gregory?

    I am. I'm very surprised. What are the real consequences to signing troubled players? Not much, aside from a little PR hit at first. But once the season starts, fans don't care. And what's the commissioner really going to do? If anything, it seems like Goodell has lost some power when it...

    Dez's contract situation may turn ugly

    If you're a top-3-4-5 player at your position, you're elite. That's basically it. You don't have to do it in Superbowls or championship games -- that makes no sense. Now elite all time? No, not yet. But judging a player only on postseason is crazy.

    Cowboys' Rod Marinelli tabbed as NFL's top defensive coordinator

    Marinelli's definitely not a "genius" in the sense that he's not going to outsmart anyone, but there's great value in just getting your guys to play extremely hard and sound and tackle well. I find his defense boring compared to someone like Wade's, but I think his approach is the right one...

    Dez's contract situation may turn ugly

    So Calvin isn't elite but Hines Ward is? Dez isn't but Art Fucking Monk is? I guess Timmy Smith was elite but Adrian Peterson isn't. Is Statman a Dooms alt?

    Deflategate punishment is in: Brady out four games, Pats lose 1st and 4th pick

    Wow, that's pretty crazy. Why would the NFL want to do something like that?

    Street tries to make his case

    I don't think there necessarily is anything special about him. He's just a sophomore 5th rounder who hasn't been around long enough to be replaced. Garrett's generic positives don't really mean anything -- he's talked up plenty of spares who are no longer around. (I'm not saying he should...
