Blue Train Posted October 27, 2013 Report Posted October 27, 2013 Giants @ 2-6 are 2 games out of 1st place in the NFC East. The NFC East has officially become the once NFC Worst aka West. Quote

Blue Train Posted October 27, 2013 Report Posted October 27, 2013 (edited) Speaking of Dallas: Dez Byrant 3-72-2td Megatron 14-329-1td To paraphrase Lloyd Bentsen. I have seen Megatron play....you Dez, are no Megatron. P.S. Maybe Monte Kiffin finally retires. Add in his years @ USC. Edited October 27, 2013 by Blue Train Quote

Tim McG Posted October 28, 2013 Report Posted October 28, 2013 Kind of a dull game for the Brits yesterday, but the Niners won and I'm OK with that :-) Quote

Well, unless you're a Cowboys fan, I guess. What I never get is you draft players to play a certain type of defense....then you bring in someone that uses a defense they're not suited to play. In the 4-3 Ware was a monster. In Kiffin's D he might as well be sitting on the sidelines every game. They're last in D in almost every category. Under the other Ryan they were middle of the pack. All of which means having to depend on Romo even more to win games for them. P.S. Back to concussions and the High School level. From you can't make this up. 11 schools in Kansas and Nebraska share one athletic trainer. Why would any parent allow their child to play for a team there is not a single medical personal, or trainer @ that their games?http://mmqb.si.com/2013/10/22/smith-center-kansas-high-school-football-robert-klemko/3/ Edited October 28, 2013 by Blue Train Quote

Blue Train Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Watch the Giants go from 0-6 to winning the division Eli only goes from playing like he shouldn't even start in Pop Warner to being relevant about now. Quote
Tim McG Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Well...same old Rams. Up the middle on 3rd and goal with everybody and their brother clogging the line of scrimmage? Then with four seconds a pass into the seats? Amazing stupidity. Guess it's up to the Saints or the Niners to hand USC North their 2nd loss. Edited October 29, 2013 by GoodSpeak Quote
Tim McG Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 You know, I couldn't help but notice that there are only 13 teams in the NFL playing above .500 ball. AFC- 5 NFC- 8 That might serve to explain the so-called "soft" schedule many teams are enjoying this season. Quote
Blue Train Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Yeah, it's a pretty bad year...but the Niners have played a schedule of cupcakes that makes you think the York's have pictures of Goodell in a comprising situation. It's really hard to tell with the Seahawks, even. Their schedule is just as much of a cupcake. Yeah, the Niners beat the Rams but they stink and Fisher is @ best a mediocre coach. Anyone really looks @ his record will see he's completely overrated. Edited October 29, 2013 by Blue Train Quote
Tim McG Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 Niners are on a bye week. Maybe Tampa Bay can knock off the Seahawks. Nah. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 We really should get up a pool: who wins first, the Jags or the Bucs. It could take years... Quote
Blue Train Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 I take the Jags. Schiano is a disaster (who should have never been hired) and I don't see anyone on that team wanting him back next year. The only reason I can see that he hasn't been fired is they want to make sure to get the #1 pick. It's really come down to them and Vikings in the hunt for Bridgewater. All three teams desperately need a QB. P.S. If they get embarrassed by the Seahawks I can see him being fired before their next game, which is a Monday Night game @ home. That's going to be one empty stadium, and a lot of booing on National TV by those that bother to go. Quote
Blue Train Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) In under 24 hours or so Aldon Smith checked out of rehab....proceeds to turn himself in for 3 felony possessing illegal assault weapons (as a result of a party @ his home in 2012 were he was stabbed and two others shot)....and the Niners activate him from the non-football injury list. Classy! P.S. Leaves out the rest of his arsenal of weapons, magazines, and ammo. Edited October 31, 2013 by Blue Train Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 dangerous football myths-------- http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/10/31/bernstein-dangerous-football-lies-exposed/ "It has been a common theme the last couple seasons, with schools wanting to boast of doing everything possible to care for students, even if they had no idea if they were telling the truth. The helmet manufacturers created new products that came with both NFL endorsements and densely-worded disclaimers – the bright, militaristic image of protection covering the paralyzing fear of lawsuits, in an inherently conflicted, ironic effort. The futility was exposed by a University of Wisconsin study released Monday that confirmed powerfully what most already believed: no brand, type, or age of helmet makes any difference in preventing concussions. What’s worse, the nefarious charlatans peddling specialized mouth-guards are endangering kids as they use bogus claims to steal money from school districts. The study found a much higher likelihood of concussion with their use, as opposed to a standard mouthpiece." Quote
Blue Train Posted October 31, 2013 Report Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) I just learned of this. From just how much of a disaster Schiano is..... They trade for Darrelle Revis....give him a 6-year $96 million deal (none of which is guaranteed...but this year he get's $16 million) and he doesn't let him play man to man @ all so far this season, but only zone defense. You can't make that up! Edited October 31, 2013 by Blue Train Quote

As I pointed out earlier....you can have the best helmets possible....which bye the way the NFL doesn't mandate players use the best one....just a Riddell. Soft gelatin bouncing inside of a small hard location....with very little place to move around in without bouncing off something hard.....biology meets physics. Physics wins each time. The NFL also doesn't even mandate that players use something as basic as a mouthpiece....and a real mouthpiece (and not one of those half-assed ones you see kids in pop warner use) would really help a great deal. Never mind real protective chin straps. P.S. As part of covering their 6....the NFL has cut exclusive ties to Riddell. It opened them up to lawsuits galore (even down to the High School and lower level) by authorizing only Riddell. As in, the NFL like the NCAA (with the video games and whatnot) realizes there are so many lawsuits that can end things. Which brings me back to how much the NFL won in the concussion case with former players. P.P.S. They only just got around to mandating thigh and knee pads for this year.

Blue Train Posted November 1, 2013 Report Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) Jonathan Martin is from Stanford. Not exactly small, or can't protect himself. Both his parents are Lawyers who graduated from Harvard. His Great-Grandfather was only one of 12 African-Americans in the class of 1924 and he wasn't allowed to live on campus dorm. All kinds of shit going on with each of the Florida teams, but this is something that has been going on for a good while with him. You don't have to read between lines what this is really about. NFL just found itself in another mess. Edited November 1, 2013 by Blue Train Quote
