interesting

you don't think the bengals will beat the steelers at home?

granted, the steelers getting in was a sickener for the bengals with big ben and brown and the rest so dangerous

(should be a corking game)

Test will be how the Steelers running game goes. If they can get some balance there, it'll be tough to see the Bengals scoring enough points. There's no doubt it'll be a fiery game (can you bet on an ejection?), given the last two encounters.

I think Wheaton is a talented player and needs more balls thrown his way.

Overs on the 139,000 bucks in player fines.Really worried about crowd trouble in this one as a few incidents in the last matchup.Another one and done could turn the crowd nasty which would be awful after a great campaign.Like Kansas Vikings and the redskins in the other matchups.

Gone for Chiefs, Steelers, Seahawks and Redskins with no handicap at 6/1

Browns are bringing in Paul DePodesta to run the team, from the Mets.

Jonah Hill played him in "Moneyball" film. Name was changed, per DePodesta's request.

Interesting move for the biggest turn-around challenge in the league

I know they're shock jocks, but I think they're superb, and love it.

I love catching up over breakfast, and like it even more if Rodgers has had a bad game, or the Cowboys have lost

That pair just win. Wish they did our sports.

SAS' thoughts on Coughlin resigning

Just shows you how being a 2 time luck box amongst countless shocking seasons and being the nice guy/family man angle buys you a lot of time in the results orientated world of USA pro sports.  I love SAS on the nba.  He talks a lot of sense.  Not sure why the race angle had to be brought into the discussion.  ty for the link.  Great watch.

I could watch them all day, and especially when SAS gets all outraged about something.

I think he speaks a lot of truth for someone who probably doesn't see the games like a pro punter does.

PFF's All-Pro roster features AZCardinals QB Carson Palmer as first-team quarterback: https://goo.gl/2qMpfJ

When does Carson get confirmed as 'comeback player of the year', Rich?

Surely he has to be pretty short for it, even though they got smoked in the last game.




Just caught this one from yesterday

i think carson finishes 2nd, loses to eric berry of the chiefs

a us nfl journalist asked for winners for the categories on twitter

so i innocently replied. marcus peters, winston, cam for mvp etc etc

put carson down for comeback player of the year

no word of a lie i got deluged with people calling me an idiot (fair comment, but) for not putting eric berry down for comeback

most seemed to come from kansas city.

the argument being he made the pro bowl coming back from hodgkins lymphoma and every one comes back from ACLs

these replies lasted for nearly a week, and my notifications went bonkers

i have kept quiet since that

Haha, Twitter... Facebook on Steroids!
