Bring back Howard Cosell!
It's Kornheiser, and I don't recall seeing or hearing him talk about fantasy football at all outside of MNF. It's likely just corporate telling him what to talk about to boost the hits on their own fantasy sites, I wouldn't hold it against him.Quote:

Confirmed: Adam 'Pacman' Jones Signs TNA Deal
07/30/2007 by Ryan Clark
It has now been confirmed that suspended NFL Tennessee Titan cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones has signed a deal with TNA Wrestling. The deal was reportedly signed late last week.
As noted earlier, Jones is currently suspended for the entire 2007 NFL season without pay for personal problems which most noteably includes a shooting at a Las Vegas strip club that left former independent pro wrestler Tommy Urbanski paralyzed. His current suspension could possibly be lifted 10 games into the season pending a hearing. Jones was recently informed he wouldn't be allowed to attend the Titans training camp.
According to reports, the Titans organization has no issue with Jones getting involved with pro wrestling and TNA at this time. This was not an idea by Vince Russo to bring Jones into the company. Expect more news regarding this situation later today and during the week.
gotte be f'n kidding me.... his antics are much better suited for the circus atmosphere of pro wrestling though, and he will probably make more $ there than football. Maybe him and vick can form some kinda tag team.
I find him annoying. I can't listen anymore. I used to be able to listen to the radio announcers while watching tv. Kornholio is super annoying. What about more on field sounds. I like the grunts and colisions. Screw the talking heads.

And he still thinks that even at this point, he can be an effective QB. We'll see just HOW effective. Point is... even he says that he isn't 100%.
simeon rice is coming to ny this week for a physical. I think it's just a move to scare strahan a little. I can't believe stray's holding out, i know he lost a lot of money to his wife, but he's going to be making 4million this season. He better come around because this is ridiculous.
haha, strahan will get replaced by rice! old guy takes over other old guy's position.
I wonder if this is a for real, at least somewhat permanent thing, or if it's just going to be one of those "we have a celebrity at our next pay-per-view!" type things that the WWE does a couple times a year.Quote:

A lot of the recovery is developing confidence in the leg, that it will hold up when you go to make a move or put pressure on it. A 75% mobile Mcnabb is still more mobile than the majority of the QB's in the league. And since he does not scramble near as much as he did 3-4 years ago, I don't think its as big an issue as you obviously do.
Here is a clip of some agility drills from his yearly Arizona workout. This was about 3 weeks ago. Looks rather healthy to me. There are one or 2 more on that page of him working out this offseason.

Also you misquoted him slightly. He did not say he would be effective, he said he would be one of the best QB's in the league at his current status.
I think I am done talking about this subject until at least he plays a few series in preseason. I doubt he will play in the first, but look for a quarter in the 2nd and maybe a half in the 3rd. I doubt he needs a ton of snaps to be ready, he has not played a lot in the preseason the last few years anyway.
Walsh had a HUGE impact on the game.
When you look at the coaches that he produced, it really is staggering how many there are.

Hadn't figured on Russell holding out. Guess I'll have to eat my words. :)
