The only way you find out is if you know who called who first.

According to 980:

Vonnie Holliday's agent has said he's NOT going to Arizona.



What's the deal with this?

They also said that the NFL's Greg Aiello said that he has to or he'll be fine. Sounds like he's Zona's problem now.

Looks like Vonnie Holiday is going to AZ after all:

"Rich Campbell
I just received a text message from Vonnie Holliday: "I am headed to AZ." #Redskins #Cardinals"

3 of them will make the team too.

Hank, Gaff and either Kelly or Paul, depending on Kelly's health.

Maybe we need to get a 7-footer at wideout for people to be happy. LOL.

We still have a long way to go if we want to beat the Raiders in the summer hoops league. Gaither, Veldheer, maybe some Heyward-Bey at Point Guard.

didnt some team back in the 70s sign a real tall guy just for the purpose of blocking kicks?

a quick quick google search didnt reveal anything but i did come across this gem of an idea the chiefs used back in the day where they would put this real tall dude (stroud) who would stand at the goal post and jump up and try to block a field goal if it was close to the cross bar.

on those long kicks, why not? it would take away one of the 11 guys trying to block the kick at the LOS and long kicks are easier to block since the kicker needs a lower trajectory to go the distance but still .. i could see someone doing that again.

Only a true Skins fan can justify signing Yao Ming. Props!

Re: Arizona RB Tim Hightower traded to Redskins.

-- Hightower is expected to arrive some time Monday afternoon. Shanahan described the fourth-year pro as a back who “can do everything: run, catch, pass protect.” Hightower is expected to challenge Ryan Torain for the starting job.

Is the last sentence the words of Shanahan or those of the writer?
