What? Rock as a 3rd down back? In what Arena League are you talking about? He's a natural fullback, too slow to make anyone miss, average to below average hands. Sproles is exactly what we are missing, a dynamic speed returner and someone on 3rd down who can take a screen or swing pass all the way to the house. He represents a dynamic we sorely lack, playmaking ability.

im down with that. Sproles for Cartwright....i like it. Although ive always appreciated Rock... hes actually a solid returner... usually gets us past the 20.

I'm not talking about Arena football. I would like to get an Arena Team here, but thats another story. Rock is a good 3rd down back and a excellent special teamer. Rock is MUCH better than Sproles at returning kicks! And MUCH better than Sproles on covering kicks! He has a MUCH better name than Sproles too! Sproles might be a good back up to LT, but Sproles isn't good enough to hold Rock's jock strap when it comes to returning/ covering kicks!

Bringing him in here and cutting Rock would do nothing but mess with our chemistry! And we DO NOT need that!

Ok, football logic aside, the name issue sold me. You're right. You should take over for Vinny.
