Harmon’s Updated Week 1 Fantasy Football Rankings
The glorious morning has finally arrived. In just five hours, the NFL season will kick off in full effect. Sure, we had a stuffed appetizer on Thursday night with the Broncos taking down the Panthers in a Super Bowl rematch. But, that was just the first of 256 battles to settle the NFL regular season. […]
Quintin Williams Designs Johnny Football Cleat
Over the past couple days, I’ve seen a few stories about custom cleats and shoes as I traversed the Internet. Michael Jordan’s son gave the world a glimpse of some new golf cleats inspired by the original, iconic Nike “Air Jordan” shoes. You can see a picture of those here. Over at TerezOwens.com, I found […]
Heisman Winner & NFL Legend Eddie George Joined The Jason Smith Show on FOX Sports Radio
“The Jason Smith Show” on FOX Sports Radio welcomed Heisman Trophy winner and NFL legend Eddie George to the show to talk Ken Whisenhunt’s arrival in Tennessee, Chris Johnson’s future, Championship Weekend and what it would take to lure him to the top spot in Cleveland. Take a listen to Eddie George. ————– You can […]
From The Mouths Of Babes: Adrian Peterson’s Daughter Just Drops It
Many pundits and commentators left the Browns for dead and “playing for 2014” following the trade that sent tailback Trent Richardson to the Colts. While Richardson’s presence was felt on an early touchdown run in the Colts’ upset win over the 49ers, the Browns certainly didn’t roll over for the Vikings. For the second straight […]
The “D”-Word: Nick Saban and High Tide
Monday night’s BCS Championship Game was a veritable yuck-fest. Well, it was for virtually everyone except Notre Dame fans and their investors. I suspect the television ratings for the second half slid markedly, so perhaps some broadcast executives or those who booked ad space deep into the game weren’t particularly thrilled, either. At one point, […]
Higher Calling: Jason Wright Walks Away from the NFL
Normally, I’m rolling through stats and poring through numbers to break down the NFL. I’m stepping back for a second to put the spotlight on former Northwestern standout Jason Wright, who took the road less traveled. Wright turned down a contract offer from the Cardinals to head to business school and prepare for the next […]
No. 21: Cleveland Selects Phil Taylor, DT, Baylor
The Browns selected Phil Taylor of the Baylor Bears, as announced by Madden cover man, Peyton Hillis. Taylor stands 6-foot-4 and weighs over 350 pounds. He’ll plug the middle and make things difficult for the run-heavy Pittsburgh and Baltimore attacks. I like the attitude in the middle. Next up: Indianapolis
No. 6: Atlanta Trades Up to Grab Julio Jones
I got the player right in my mock draft … except he goes to a different squad. Alabama wide receiver Julio Jones – he of the 4.39-second 40-yard dash on a broken foot – is the piece that Atlanta felt it was missing. He’s a fantastic receiver over the middle and can stretch things. He’ll […]
FMC: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, PIT
It’s time to honor this weekend’s “Fantasy Man-Crush” for heroics on the field of play. There are many worthy candidates out of Sunday’s action, but I would be remiss if I failed to acknowledge Ben Roethlisberger’s return to action against the Browns. * Again, we’re looking in-between the white lines for fantasy heroism here. We’ll […]
