Sorry dude, you can't serve crow on your first post on a forum.  ::)

Actually PhillyGirl, this was not going to be my only post, as I intend to post often.  However, when an uncalled for comment was made about a player and had no information was there to back it up, I saw an opportunity to point out his error and in the same process make feel a little remorseful about making that statement.  That's all.

Let me ask you this, would the post have been if I made a post saying hi first, then make it my 2nd post?  When I read that particular post, I knew he was wrong with his assumption and had the information to back it up.  If that make my first post wrong, then so be it!

Anyway, I look forward to discussing things on CB in the future.

And if you look back, I also said it was uncalled for (look at the rest of the thread). But telling someone to eat crow on your first post isn't usually the way to go...lol

I was at the game.  He was flapping his wings like T.O.  Other teammates of his were doing the same thing despite the fact that T.O. f'n owned their asses all day long.

Like I said in my initial post, I'm glad he's doing better.

BTW: The crow thing... sheer genius.   :-D

OK - Now that we got that over with.....

When do you think Childress or Johnson will get the call and get their own team!

Jim Johnson won't. He's into his 60s now and just signed a deal last year that will keep him in Philly until after the 2006 season. I can't see him leaving to START being a head coach at his age. He's making a LOT of money and loves it in Philly. He'd have to make a long-term committment to a team looking for a head coach.

I expect Childress to be gone after this season for a HC job.

I agree with PG.  J.J.'s gone as far as he's going to go.

Childress... I don't know.  I get the feeling that teams assume that Reid does all the scheming & play-calling & Brad's a coordinator in title only.

He might have to go the college route first.

Ever since Fisher & Gruden were hired, it appears the league is going "young" in the head coaching dept.  That matbe a good thing, since the "retread" era appears to have died out with Schottenheimer being the last HC hired after being fired.

I know for a fact that the officials are being "fast tracked" out of the high school fields and being moved up to college and then the NFL quicker than the past.  I think the NFL realizing the game is getting faster and more advanced and wants to put itself in a position to be ahead of the pace, unlike the other leagues.

Bruschi needs heart surgery  :( Apparently he has a hole in his heart:

QuoteFormer U of A Wildcat Tedy Bruschi Returns To Hospital

By Scott Kilbury, KOLD News 13 Sports Director

New England Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi -- who once played for the University of Arizona -- is facing heart surgery, according to sources in Tucson and Boston.

The team isn't confirming this news yet, but KOLD News 13 has learned Bruschi went into a Boston hospital for tests.  He is scheduled to have surgery to repair a hole in his heart by the end of the week. That's what may have caused the mild stroke he suffered last month.

The 31-year-old Bruschi was rushed to the hospital complaining of partial paralysis just two weeks after winning his 3rd Super Bowl ring.

Bruschi played football at Arizona from 1992 to 1995.

I wonder if the steroids thing will come up more strongly this time? A mild-stroke and a hole in his heart in the span of a month? I know it sucks to assume things, but with the way things are today it's almost impossible to not think it.

Regardless, I wish him well. He's young still and has a family. 'Roids or not, he needs to be around for them.

I've never heard of a hole in someone's heart due to roids. Its usually hereditary....and steroids are usually taken to help fix the problem.

For people to think that would be QUITE a reach.

It very well could be his genes that are working against him. But I'm saying that it's possible. He doesn't seem the type to do it, but who knows? The stroke + the heart in a months time are suspicious a little bit, IMO.

Like I said, I hope he recovers to be there for his kids.

The stroke could have been caused by steroids, but not the hole in his heart.  The hole is either hereditary or from an injury, and could certainly have caused the stroke.

Probably means his career is over, though.  He's lucky it didn't just kill him outright.
Anyone but Reid.

Man, the news just gets better and better for Bruschi and his family. It's said that adversity builds character, but how much can one family take?
Crier of the week: Terrorists of all backgrounds. Tantrums are selfish acts by children; extortion and murder disguised as fervor for a cause are both selfish and just plain evil. "We're gonna blow up things and kill people until we get our way!" There's a convincing argument, huh?
