Around The NFL - 2008

[mussa]

went and voted for pro-bowl yesterday and tried to vote for those who deserved it. i realized arizona's 3 receivers in boldin, fitz and breaston are all in the top 10 most receptions this season so far. boldin and fitz got 83 and breaston has 67. 233 total

The Eagles top 3 are DeSean Jackson, 53 Brian Westbrook, 43 Hank Baskett, 30.  126 total receptions for a pass happy team. McNabb is not a 40+ passing QB and never will be. A rookie is our leading receiver and he just made his first start. Our running back in our number 2 receiver in receptions. Our 4th receiver has the 3rd most catches. HA. The receivers are fine!

50 Worst NFL Christmas Gifts

There is some mildly amusing stuff in here from Simmons.

For the how-could-you-resist price of $15, it's a signed photo of Andy Reid staring at his play chart and deciding which horrible play to send in next! Third-and-1 ... should I roll Donovan to the right and have him throw an off-balance pass that L.J. Smith can drop? Or should I run a third-string running back behind my two worst blockers? Hmmmmmm. Since offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg is handling play-calling duties for Philly now, I'd go so far as to call this a collector's item. Unless you're a Philly fan.

If you're dressing your infant daughter like a Lions cheerleader this winter, you're basically announcing, "I want my little girl to grow up with no self-esteem whatsoever and eventually go into porn."

Lions fans rooting for 0-16

man has this team been tortured for a long time...but I probably would feel the same too

"If he (Willam Clay Ford) is going to be this selfish and torment us for five decades with this continued futility, I am hopeful and feel he deserves this legacy of being 0-16. It will brand Lions football with a legacy nobody else has.
