Worth A Pick: Shawn Loiseau, ILB, Merrimack University
Before the East/West Shrine game not many people were talking about inside linebacker Shawn Loiseau, of Merrimack. During last week’s performance at the East/West Shrine game Shawn showed his intensity on the field and was really gauging the interest of the NFL teams and their scouts. Shawn...
NFL Collective Bargaining? Sure, But How About A Reorg...
With the Collective Bargaining Agreement hanging like a dark cloud over all avid professional football fans, I found myself wondering what the NFL could do to improve their product once this labor dispute is cleared up. It appears we'll likely see an 18 game schedule, which is a plus for us and the...
Third Down...and Out
I tried to get this post finished before Sunday's game, but I didn't expect the rabbit hole I was entering to be so deep and seemingly never-ending.

December Football During the Bill Cowher Era
That term 'winning in December' - we'll hear it a lot over the course of the next several weeks, and we did so last Sunday when Mike Tomlin said in his initial post-game press conference: "This is December. We'll take the W." Of course, December is just another month filled with a slate of games -...
Happy Thanksgiving! Today's Games
Just taking a break from all things Ravens to wish everyone (yes, even the ,...gulp,...Cleveland fans, even though they don't have as much to be thankful for) a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. The kids are home from school, eating and now drinking everything in the house, having tons of friends...
Around the NFL
