SI.com is a big step up for Roob from the Courier Times.

Interesting snippet:
QuoteBrett Favre completed 33 of 46 pass attempts for 351 yards with three touchdown passes and no interceptions and bumped his career passer rating up from 85.4 to 85.5 But Favre still fell from 16th to 17th in NFL history in career passer rating. Donovan McNabb's rating after a four-TD, no-INT performance improved from 85.3 to 85.8, and he passed Favre and moved into 16th place.

he kind of twists some stats in there about when the qbs were cut, he makes it sound like they were cut midseason which is weird and he also calls Ginn a bust already which is monumentally stupid, but otherwise it's a pretty good article.  pretty cool to see Reuben writing for the big boys.
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

He's a stringer for S.I. like Eckel is/was for TSN.

Look at the bottom of the article:

Reuben Frank is a sports writer for the Burlington County Times in Willingboro, NJ.

Sure, but that's how most writers start going national.

Eagles DE Juqua Thomas has formally been promoted to the starting lineup, ahead of Jevon Kearse.
The Birds will continue to rotate their five ends, but Thomas has outplayed Kearse and has more sacks despite being in a situational role the first nine games. Now, he'll be starting at left end opposite Trent Cole. Thomas is very undersized for the position at 6-2/250, but possesses more big play ability.

the two highest paid ends on the team cant even start. go front office.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Well at least we can look forward to the team wasting their first pick on an ineffective DE.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.
