College Football News

Come on, the year is 2007 and you need to just give it up. People are complaining about Madden 2008 being to violent for kids to play. Apparently, when you pull a Reggie Bush and Sheldon Brown type of hit, the words “Big Hit” are displayed on the screen. Apparently, those words are unacceptable to 12 year old children. There is no reason this game should be posted on a brain injury blog. Who comes up with that stuff anyway.

Some express the following: “If the NFL is serious in their concern over concussions, they ought to rethink the image they are creating in the minds of young fans when they allow these video games to be produced under their license. The NFL should learn that the best cure for brain injuries is prevention! ”

I say shut up and be glad you kid is not playing “Tour of Duty”, “Man Hunt 2″, or other horrific video game out on the market. THIS IS JUST FOOTBALL!

Andy Reid’s sons are in alot of trouble once again. Britt Reid, son of Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid, pleaded guilty to gun and drug related charges that could potentially put him in jail for over a year. The best case scenario for Reid would be for the judge to give him probation.
Besides the firearms charge, Reid also pleaded guilty to simple assault, possession of an instrument of crime and drug possession. Misdemeanor charges of making terroristic threats, making a false statement to law enforcement and possessing drug paraphernalia were dropped..

Andy’s other son, Garrett, is facing jail time of his own.

A good parent wouldnt let this happen. Did his absence because of the NFL cause these problems?

This all happened in Coach Reid’s main house so he had to have some clue. Isn’t he responsible for what goes on in his house??? But I bet he won’t have to talk to Goodell.

Some say it is a bad case of lazy eye. “I don’t know the clinical term for it, but he’s got what is commonly referred to as a “lazy eye.” It’s not as uncommon as it seems. I’ve worked with a few people who have it both worse and not as bad as Stuart Scott. ”

Others say it was penalty flag through the face mask.

They are all wrong. Stuart Scott was asked what happened during an interview.

Q. Back in the spring, you sustained a severe eye injury while filming a story about football minicamps with the Jets. Tell us what happened.

I had gotten in shape and (Jets coach) Herman Edwards gave me permission to go to minicamp with them. I was doing a feature for ESPN on what it’s like to be in minicamp. But I was serious about it.

The day I was there, there were eight wideouts and the wide receiver coach said I was rated number six. I didn’t have any delusions of grandeur. I was hoping I’d be good enough to be a scrub wide receiver or a practice wide receiver in the NFL. I found that out that day. I didn’t disappoint myself and I didn’t embarrass myself.

At end of practice all the wideouts went to the Jugs Machine, it’s a machine that shoots balls out. I had never done that before. I had been catching everything that day in practice from the quarterbacks. I was probably a little close and the thing was fast and the thing was faster than I thought it was.

Q. The ball, coming out of the machine, hit you square in the left eye. How bad was it?

It was serious. I had emergency surgery that night and was out of work for a couple months. It was tough. I had some eye surgery before so I knew how severe it was. It was probably more scary that day, not knowing. The next day came and I knew it would be a long recovery back. I still need some more surgery. The eye is not great now. But I had some time off.

“I’m sorry Mike but it honestly doesnt look like the NFL or the NAACP is going to bail you out if that’s what you are hoping.”

Even though Vick has pleaded guilty, he still is not admitting to killing dogs or gambling. So what is a guilty plea when you do not admit to being guitly? A Source told ESPN that Vick will only admit to funding these events completely. If it is proven otherwise that he did take part in the actual dog fighting, the plea bargain will not do anything for him. This could be the biggest fumbled of his career. He is clearly trying to play the system like placing a bet on a puppy. The easiest way out is to admit everything he has done and do the time.

As of right now Vick is looking to five years, but it seems he will go all in with only a pair of …?

You won’t believed it at 4.29 seconds however some have reported even faster speeds. One individual went on record as saying he witnessed 1 year pro Texan’s wide out Jerome Mathis run the 40 in 4.26 seconds, but it was not officially documented as it was hand timed. Anyone have anything that can beat that?

Worth noting, evidently this kid does it in a 4.44 … and he’s 13..

When Steve Spurrier arrived at South Carolina as head coach three seasons ago, he acted like a man humbled by his two-year failure to resuscitate the NFL’s Redskins. You’d thought an imposter had stolen his visor.

I was listening to Sports Illustrated columnist Rick Reilly on ESPN this afternoon talking about how evil and stupid Michael Vick is when I heard him actually say one of the words you aren
’t supposed to say on the radio. It’s one of the words that will get the offending station fined and even possibly, it’s broadcast license revoked by the FCC.

By the way people are acting on the issue; you would think the kickoff tee has been moved into the bleachers. The NCAA rules committee approved a change this year in which the kickoff tee is moved back 5 yards to the kicking team’s 30-yard line. It’s only a 5-yard difference, but many feel that it will have a negative impact on the game.

Kicking the ball out of bounds on purpose?

“There may be some people that decide they want to kick it out of bounds and give it to the team at the 35-yard line rather than kicking it deep and having a return out to the 40 or 45.”

Too Many Kick Returns?

“He said we only really returned about 25 percent of the kicks. Now, we predict we’ll be returning 75 to 90 percent of the kicks. ” I highly doubt that 25 percent of all kicks were returned anyway…

Scoring Average Will Rise?

Some coaches say the score will rise to be above the average 20 percent higher with more pressure on the defense more than ever before.

More injuries? 

Most injuries occur on running plays when the runner and the opposing players collide at a high rate of speed. Some say kickoffs include those factors more than the kickoff.

Most Importantly More FUMBLES! 

Does the NCAA need more turnovers during a college football game?

Conclusion

Moving the tee back five yard will not destroy college football, but the sissyness of the players and coaches whinning to the press will!

I am a fan of the University of Georgia, meaning I am a supporter of head coach Mark Richt. He handles the media well, recruits hard, has never won less than eight games in a season, has won two SEC titles…but there’s always a little doubt in my mind.Georgia’s good, but what if it could be better with a different coach?

USC’s football program gets torn to shreds after a not so hot misfortune that has severly damaged the programs reputation.

Paragraph 1: With all the turmoil that has surrounded the USC thug-ball football program within the past 3 years. One has to wonder why the thugs that were arrested players that have shown poor decision skills never really serve time.

Paragraph 4: The real story here is Neal Lourie. He’s the official thug-cock USC football team attorney. Just ask Stephen Garcia. After all Lourie got him off the hook for keying a professors car.

 You know when your teams lawyer is refered to as a modern day Johnnie Cochran Jr.  you may have some problems.

The NMSU Aggies ARE Tough Enough to Wear Pink! Are you tough enough to wear pink?  That is the question posed by NMSU Head Football Coach Hal Mumme and his wife June.  On September 29th Aggie fans will be seeing pink and lots of it, to fight a deadly disease. In 1996, June was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Her treatment included a lumpectomy, followed a week later by a mastectomy, six months of chemotherapy and five years of continued treatment.  Since then Hal and June have been actively involved in breast cancer awareness and fundraising activities.

The quality of life in the South is dependent upon good college football. Local economies, race relations and collective psychological health all would suffer without it. Sweet tea would not be as sweet. Fried chicken would not be as crispy. Country songs would be even sadder.
