If you listen to Adam Schefter on the podcast (found on the right in that article), he mentions that dude is still over 300+ lbs. Yeah, he really wants it alright.

I read in Lotus' article he is at 307, from 320. Who knows if he wants it, but his quote acknowledges that he didn't want it when he left, and slowly the desire is back inside him. I kinda think of the Buffalo guard we brought in. It took a lot of discipline for him to get back to a playing weight, but he did. If Russell wants to go through all that, some team will give him a shot at it. Dead straight that if I had his original contract, and got shoved out of the league(I know it was his own fault that he's out of the league), I wouldn't even look back. But then I never have had the drive that makes up every professional athlete.

This was on the NFL's website, wonder why they pulled it? Dear god if they shame their golden boy Tom.

That slide was really a dumb move, and Brady easily could have had the same type collision Griffin had, or possibly worse. If he did it with any purposeful intent than that is even more boneheaded.

In all fairness its not ONLY about a qb. Gibbs had hall of famers all over the field. Riggo, Grimm, monk, green. Plus the rest of the hogs - a couple of which could be hof'ers. Gary Clarke, Mosely. Could Gibbs have won his superbowls without Bobby Beathard would be a fair question too. they are both great coaches.

NE will have their share of HOF, the same can be said about Pioli.

Agreed to a point, IMO Beathard was the best GM of all time. I know your not a big niners fan ( to say the least- lol) but do you know who their gm was during the 80's ? Seems like they had as much if not more great talent through free agency and the draft as the Skins did.

I thought CJ Miles was an NBA player.

Boy was I wrong.

BB not only had one of the best QB in the league, but a QB that has been protected by the league (Tuck Rule/Brady Rule/Favoritism). Also, Gibbs had all his success without having to be the biggest prick in the league like Belichick.

I am not trying to defend Ray Lewis and I think what he did was terrible. I just think it is a big naive to harp on what happened, when NFL players have done worst and gotten away with it.

Hell, even Michael Vick went through more backlash for what he did, than what L. Little and Stallworth did.
