Even funnier in retrospect

Cam all but guarantees that the draft class will go down as legendary after 1 pick while making cracks about “we need thumbs that go in this direction”.

and of course the first thing he says about taking Ginn over Quinn “I’ve known the Ginn family for 10 years”. Cam might have gotten some of those thumbs up if he hadn’t let his friendship with a family make the pick for him.

Thank god they got the tuna to make the picks or Cam would have pushed for his godson who punts for Oklahoma Panhandle State.

Pac Man didn’t get off easy

I’m sure a lot of people will complain that Pacman Jones got probation for the shit he pulled in Vegas, but we here at BSS see it  differently.    Pacman (who has more arrests than NFL interceptions) will without a doubt violate his probation. This is a good as a prison sentence.

So, Are they Contenders Now?

After a dominating 34-0 showing against the streaking but one-dimensional Minnesota Vikings, can the Packers finally be considered full-blown contenders? At 7-1, there was still plenty of doubt surrounding this young and often inexperienced team. With only a handful of players over the age of 30, and very few with big game experience, there was good reason for questioning if this team was good enough to be considered as good as their record makes them look.

In addition to coaching some of the best teams of all time, Walsh was one of a select group that can say they changed the game of football significantly.

Very sad news. Our thoughts go out to his family.

Fantasy Football, How to win it all: Tips & Tricks

Another year of fantasy football and by gosh am I ready. I’ve already a 12-13 sheet excel document portraying who I want to pick in each round and in what order I would pick them in. I’ve been hardcore into fantasy football ever since 2 years ago, when I disinterestedly joined a league with my friends from school and ended up winning it all with a 13-1 regular season record. Last year I didn’t do so well going 8-6 and missing the playoffs, but I’ve learned a few things about what to do on draft day and what not to do.

LaVar Arrington seriously hurt in motorcycle accident

Media outlets in Washington have reported that former Giants linebacker LaVar Arrington was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident Monday near Washington’s Capital Beltway.

Fire officials told the WTOP Radio that Arrington was listed in serious condition, but no other details about the injuries were immediately available.

According to WUSA-TV, the former No. 2 overall draft pick in 2000 was driving his motorcycle on the Rt. 50 off-ramp to the Beltway when the crash occurred. The location of the crash is less than two miles from FedEx Field near Landover, Md., where Arrington played for the Washington Redskins for the first six years of his career.

WUSA reported that Arrington’s injuries are not life-threatening, and that his wife and other relatives had joined him at Prince George’s Hospital Center in Cheverly, Md.

Arrington signed a seven-year, $49-million deal with Giants last summer, but the team released him in February after he had played just six games. Arrington’s season ended on Oct. 23 when he tore his Achilles tendon against Dallas. Let’s hope he’ll recover
