  1. Definitely. An unexpected surprise for sure. Although he did have a good East-West game, and hew was a smaller school player to watch for. I just wonder if Taron Johnson will ever be a real starting corner in this league or is he a permanent nickel back?
  2. Ummm.....Tre'Davious White?
  3. I agree with you. I think the Bills need more help at Guard & Center(unless the Bills believe in Bodine) than they do at Tackle. We have Dion Dawkins and drafting a player in the first round to be a Right Tackle would not be a good move. Wide Receiver/Tight End/ or BPA in the first round. If that BPA is a defensive player.....so be it.
  4. What a second half onslaught by Michigan, and what a big win tonight. 84-67? When I saw North Carolina go up by 10 early in the first half, I honestly thought that Michigan would struggle all night long. Not the case. The Wolverines brushed off that 10 point deficit with ease. Even at the start of the second half Michigan was up by 4, I was expecting this game to go to the wire, and that did not happen. Michigan's shooting was ridiculous tonight but I was mostly surprised at how they were able to score with ease inside the paint. Again, Michigan's defense came up big. North Carolina could not get their fast paced transition game going in the second half. It's a good thing that Michigan plays great defense, because they struggle mightily at the free throw line. That could come back to haunt them in other games this year.
  5. I remember when he would call the games for Sunday night on the radio. He was great. I hope he gets to move up in CBS and get bigger games.
  6. I love it that both teams are wearing throwbacks for this game. It's much more fun, and I like the diamond end zone scheme Miami has for these games. The Dolphins need to switch back to these uni's. The Dolphin with the Miami(Ohio) helmet is way better than that Aqua-Fresh toothpaste logo they have now.
  7. This is true. Although to be specific, Fred Jackson was on the Bills practice squad and was an allocated player in NFL Europe. All teams had the option to do this with their practice squad players. Kurt Warner had no ties to any NFL team at all when he played in NFL Europe.
  8. Just wait until the new XFL comes back. Those team names should be real beauts.
  9. Helluva game. Congratulations Sabres. What a hard fought game by both teams. Loved seeing the Sharks come back in that situation. Two splendid goals by the Big Pavelski. Sharks were in a hole late and on the road against the hottest team in the league, and they come out of it with a point. I'll take it. Now go out tomorrow and beat the Maple Leafs. GO SHARKS!!!
  10. That's not a surprise, some think that he is the top WR in the draft.
  11. They will invite more players as time goes on.
  12. I didn't know they invited them so early. Let the Draft countdown begin!
  13. I would love to have them both back. They are both playing good football this year, and their value as leaders is without question. We still need to get another linebacker to eventually replace Alexander, so it would be even more beneficial to keep him. I could easily see Alexander wanting to come back again next year. I think Kyle has a 50-50 chance of returning, but after last Sunday, and watching Kyle constantly getting fired up out there, I would not be surprised one bit if he returned for next season.
  14. I'm all for this. Jordan Phillips may not have the exact talent that Dareus has/had, but he has shown far more desire and more fire to play here than Dareus ever did.
  15. Very true. Remember the injury he suffered in 2011 to his Achilles Tendon? We all knew he would be back the following season, although many of us(yours truly included) thought that he would not be the same player. Lo and behold he came back in 2012 and had an All-Pro year. I'm still amazed at how good of a player he still is. Granted, he's not playing every down, but he is still a vital part of this team's defense.
  16. This was great. When we saw this yesterday, we were wondering what the Hell Tre'Davious was doing, but we couldn't stop laughing. Then we found out that the penalty was on us. White provided us with a much needed light hearted moment in that game. The penalties were beyond ridiculous.
  17. Also, Kyle is not being asked to be an every down player.
  18. This was probably the most impressive catch he has made all season. He caught the pass, took a big hit from the defender and held onto the ball. Very impressive for a player whom most say is only a speed receiver.
  19. After today's game, you are still certain of this?
  20. As a Sharks fan I can obviously state that this was a rough one for the Sharks after they had just completed a strong home stand with a 4-1-1 record. The Sharks have played very good so far this season. D Erik Karlsson has been a big help despite only scoring 2 goals. The biggest surprise has been the emergence of RW Timo Meier. He is currently tied with a team leading 13 goals. The line up of C Logan Couture, RW Joonas Donskoi & LW Evander Kane has been a strong group. Then there's the usual suspects: Joe Thornton, Joe Pavelski, Brent Burns, Tomas Hertl, Marc Eduoard-Vlasic, & Mike Jones. The Sharks have a very good mix of veterans and youth, and they are a force to be reckoned with. Now comes the test of surviving what Sharks fans refer to as "The Buffalo Curse". No matter what the Buffalo Sabres bring to the ice, the Sharks have a very poor record against the Sabres. In their 25+ years of existence I believe that the Sharks have beaten the Sabres in Buffalo a grand total of 3 times. This should be an exciting game.
  21. Does anyone have a screen shot of the sign that the Bills fan had of Ramsey? CBS showed it after Ramsey's illegal contact penalty.
  22. 6 point dogs? Wow! A lot more than I was expecting.
  23. Shaq Lawson has earned that contract extension after today.
  24. They must really like Levi Wallace's play. Isaiah McKenzie getting more opportunities than Ray-Ray, which is understandable.
  25. So should Michigan fire him? How have the 49'ers been doing since he left them? Jim Harbaugh is a very good coach, and I would have been thrilled if he had become Buffalo's head coach. But I do like Sean McDermott, and he deserves to be the Bills head coach. I can't believe so many Bills fans want McDermott fired.
