an incomplete, disjointed one

ProFootballTalk.com reported Stanford coach John Harbaugh is a possible candidate for the Bills and Oakland Raiders. Come on now....

did he bring a couple of nice, shiny, well-organized binders with him to the interview?

Looked like Rautins was cramping up -- hopefully, that's all it was. Not really sure why Scoop saw so little PT in the 2nd half. He was far better than Triche in the 1st half

haha...he was unstoppable on the circle pass. Brad Lamb Kwame Cavil Kamil Loud

cannot !@#$ing wait

M & M brought up the possibility of Billick getting a coaching job, and really all he said was that he didn't think that there would be as many coaching vacancies to fill as people thought, due to the CBA

Greg Robinson. As an SU fan, I can tell you that hire didn't work out too well.

Factual inaccuracies aside, this post cracked me up.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxPplp9x_rQ...feature=related Yeah, I didn't shed a tear when I heard about the injury, nor did I feel bad about it. Can't say that I actively rooted for the guy to get hurt, but it's football- **** happens.

This rumor has legs....Cowher signed a month-to-month lease at the Marina Drive Apartments!

could be that they're tired of the repetitive nature of his columns.

he's the master of the obvious. does anyone actually read his columns and think to themselves "Hmm. That's interesting. I hadn't thought of that"?

yep. I remember last year against the Colts, he caught a short pass to convert a 3rd down, and he got up, made a 1st down signal, and said "You !@#$ing Suck" to the DB edit: you linked the play

FWIW, programs with large numbers of athletes who lose eligibility, leave school, or don’t graduate can lose academic scholarships. The NCAA enacted these regulations a few years ago. UB actually lost a few FB scholarships a few years ago due to these regulations. Care to provide any specific instances of SU "completely dump(ing) these kids once their useful playing careers are over for the school, and does not give them whatever tutoring or mentoring they need to actually graduate and become more able to be society contributors"?

"I have no complaints about this decision. [Leach] put Adam [James] in a shed like an animal. Like an animal in a cage. That was bull," defensive lineman Chris Perry said. "You call other players. I think it was a good decision. We have our pep back now. We practice hard this week. We had less stress this week. You know why? Because he's gone." Wide receiver Tramain Swindall said he supported the decision to fire Leach. "I do agree and I'm supporting Adam and what he's doing because it's the right thing to do," Swindall told the AP in a telephone interview. Swindall said he believes Leach was at times out of line in how he treated players. "And so do most of the players," he said. "It wasn't just about Adam. It was always a negative vibe." Said cornerback Taylor Charbonnet: "The players make this team, not one coach. As Adam's friend, I didn't like it at all what [Leach] did. He was my brother and I didn't agree with it. I don't know why [Leach] did that. But I know we are fully behind [interim] coach Ruffin [McNeill]. We love him and support him." . . . According to his affidavit, taken by representatives of the university on Dec. 21 and signed on Jan. 1, trainer Steve Pincock did not agree with the treatment and said he knew of no other player ever being placed in a similar room. In releasing the affidavits from Pincock and treating physician Dr. Michael Phy, the university said, "After coach Leach's conflicting recent media accounts of the treatment of James, the university asked witnesses to sign affidavits attesting to their original statements." Phy told university officials in his affidavit that James "may not have been harmed," but he "considered this practice inappropriate, and a deviation from the medical standard of care." Here comes the spin....

he injured his ACL in the playoffs against the Steelers.

Shawn Nelson / Shane Nelson?

not a big Billick fan. More hype than substance, IMO

yeah, OK

he was benched. Never mind his errant shot - he was trying to force passes into spaces that just weren't there

wow. Rautins is a 37 % 3-pt shooter, and a 69% FT shooter. Devendorf was 38% from 3, and 80% from the stripe. Maybe he was "too black" for you.

sure would've been nice to have had Harris getting his nose dirty and snagging one of the gazillion loose balls SU failed to come up with. Devo probably could've knocked down a couple of 3s....
