Back To Business

Roger Goodell is already back to business and is discussing a possible ban on the 3 point stance because of the possible health ramifications it could have.  While we are at it why don’t we take off the pads, take out the tackling, and play with flags, or two hand touch.   We all care about the saftey of the players, but not at the expense of the game.  This is changing a historical part of football.  This is like banning the hand off.

For The Record

People need to stop saying the following about every football related argument:

NFL players get paid millions of dollars to play the game while hard working everyday people make @#$% pay and bust thier a$$es to barely make it.

The 3 point stance should stay, but players should not be playing through concussions and bad contracts, or risking life and limb because they make more than you.   They make what they do because for an average window of 3 years they are the only people on the planet that can do what they do.  You hard working everyday people make what you do because you are not uniquely talented.  You are not payed more because you are not special, you are not important, you can replaced.  Stop comparing your job with theirs and go back to cleaning up crime scenes, testing new leukemia medicine, and ripping off my movie stub.

Peyton Not The Best Ever.

Let’s start this by saying that this is way too nerdy of an argument, but fine if we are going to take the man’s legacy over the one interception that he threw, then let’s do it.

USC Digs Deeper Hole.

Media reporters were in a frenzy when 13 year old QB David Sills verbally committed to USC after coach Lane Kiffin offered him a scholarship.  Now the story has reached even greater heights.  Sources close to FTR have reported that the NCAA infraction committee is currently conducting an investigation after it was brought to their attention that Sills was seen riding this.

He said it was his girlfriend’s bike, but reports in April clearly quoted him as saying “girls are gross and have cooties.”

More to come.

$5 Million Purse for Apple Blossom Invitational

In an attempt to bring prized horses, Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra to Hot Springs, Arkansas, Oaklawn Park president, Charles Cella is raising the purse from the usual Grade 1 Stakes race from $500,000 to a gaudy $5 million upon the agreement that both horses will be in the field.

The only other $5 million race in the United States is the Breeder’s Cup Classic, which Zenyatta won in 2009.

The winner of the Apple Blossom Invitational will get 50% of the purse, and if either of these two horses doesn’t win, pigs will fly, Iran will disarm, and  the Rams will win the Super Bowl next season.

Exclusive Super Bowl Interview with Colts’ Curtis Painter

This week’s Super Bowl hoopla can be dizzying for NFL rookies. Especially rookie Quarterbacks who may be looked to lead their new team on the biggest stage of them all.

We caught up with the Indianapolis Colts’ rookie QB, Curtis Painter this week to find out how he’s handling the media frenzy and intense pressure he’ll face on the bench this Sunday in Miami.

FTR: ” Curtis, how does it feel to be playing in your first Super Bowl in only your first year in the league?”

CP: ” I won’t be playing. Coach told me to stay as far away from the field as possible this Sunday, or he’ll trade me to the Browns.”

FTR: ” Haha, no seriously. What has been going through your mind as you prepare to take on the Saints? How do you gameplan around someone like Darren Sharper?”

CP: ” Honestly I don’t know. I’m not allowed to even go into meetings this week, because Coach is afraid that the Saints will pick up on passing plays just by the look on my face if I know what the play is when I’m on the bench.”

FTR: ” Ok. Tell us about media day. Over 2,000 media members this year attended media day making it quite the spectacle. How did you handle the barrage of questioning?”

CP: ” I couldn’t get in. Security laughed when I told them I’m on the team. It was embarrassing actually.”

FTR: ” Wow. Sounds like you’re not even really getting the Super Bowl experience.”

CP: “It’s not all bad. Coach gave me a souvenir T-shirt and hat.”

FTR: ” Well that’s cool. So how bad is Dwight Freeney’s ankle? Is he still gonna be an impact on the Saints offense?”

CP: ” I’m not allowed to talk about Mr. Freeney.”

FTR: ” Oh, so the team is trying to keep that close to the vest huh?”

CP: ” No, it’s just that, well, Mr. Freeney told me after my performance against the Jets in week 16, I’m about one step away from being put in traction for the rest of my life. So, I’d rather not talk about Mr. Freeney. He is a great man.”

FTR: ” You’re kind of a tool huh?”

CP: ” I hate my life.”
