Brian Finneran out for the season again. His career is done. Sucks, because I like the guy a lot.

Yeah, I account most of the reason for his YPC average dropping from 5 to 4 last year was because of the horrendous line play. I can't tell you how many times I saw him get engulfed at the line of scrimmage or a yard back.
The guy simply would get no holes, and the only times we'd see big plays from him would be when he would make them on his own, either by his quick feet (which he is underestimated for) or just his raw power.
As for Harris, I do believe you know what you're talking about since I'm pretty sure you're a Viking fan, and have seen Harris play over the last couple years. But with the new Cover 2 defense Coach Edwards set up when he came last year, Kawika Mitchell couldn't adapt to the style of D, and it didn't seem like he was going to at his rate.
Harris has at least established somewhat of a comfort zone from when he had Tomlin as his coordinator in Minnesota playing the Cover 2. As well, Harris will be surrounded by what I consider are two good linebackers in Donnie Edwards and Derrick Johnson, so maybe he can pick up a thing or two from Donnie, seeing that Donnie has been a MLB almost his entire career.

My question is why the hell to pro sports players think they are invincible, like Mike Golic said on Mike and Mike players need to get smacked back into reality that they all can be replaced. Also Tim any news on how Carolina's RB and QB situation is going. IMO it should be Delhomme and Foster, but I read in numerous magazines Delhomme, Foster, and Coach Fox are in the hot seat to win, and that Carr and Williams will be starting by week 5.

lol @ tank johnson getting released. If I am a playoff team.....I'd pick him up after his suspension and sign him to a 1 year contract to a decent salary. He is a talent on field. If, and its a big if, he can get his off the field issues squared away.......he would be a huge asset. Otherwise, he becomes a huge distraction.

Sucks, because I like the guy a lot. villanova legend, one of my favorite Eagles players in his (brief) stint with the team. sadly, a truly legitimate career as an NFL starting WR was taken from him via injuries. good guy in the community, too.

Is it true that only 1 first round draft pick has signed thus far and that draft pick is Olsen from the Bears? If so....thats crazy! Surprised we havent seen more talk about this.

Marc Bulger told Sirius NFL Radio Tuesday that he won't rule out a holdout if the Rams don't sign him to a contract extension prior to training camp.

First thing I'd suggest to you, though, would be to move one of your receivers and get another solid RB. You've got some depth at WR (especially if Andre Johnson produces well again) and your RB's are pretty thin. By the way, there's a Fantasy Sports board on WF, located here: wfigs.proboards48.com/index.cgi?board=fantsport

RIP bucko kilroy, former Eagles lineman and Patriots front office man passed away on tuesday. he was a legend on and off the field, and is often credited for--along with gil brandt and the cowboys of the '70s--revolutionizing football scouting as we know it.
if you want to talk about someone who truly left a mark on the game, Kilroy is one of them.
