I appreciate Chris' efforts and activism in the cause and a lot of what happened in this situation is quite sad, but unfortunately the production topic is a bit whitewashed. Following are the AVG/NET rankings since 08:

Whether a punter/kicker should be "big boy" enough for these types of hits are irrelevant - they are highly specialized positions with limited depth. As long as there is a kicking game, they need to be reasonably protected to ensure they can play the entire game. If a WR is knocked out from a similar hit/block, they…

Masters of Doom is a pretty interesting read about Carmack and Romero.

Wow, shocking. He pulled that same stunt against Rex Grossman in the 2001 UF-FSU game, not to mention intentionally injuring Earnest Graham after a tackle as well. 12 years later and still dirty.

if you had never heard of meringue before, upon delivery you would send your pie back and ask for whipped cream. FACT.

I love Cincinnati chili but can certainly why others wouldn't. That being said, if you made it with more tomato paste most people wouldn't even find it much more different from other various types of chili.

"The Nation" pretty much confirms the article's stance.

i guess save for the fact that it was dependent on everything during the series occurring

if you think Kristi Dosh's twitter feed is bad, try listening to her on the radio with her "get off my lawn" sanctimonious husband Chadd Scott. it's the worst.

so, uh, a "friend" despises ricotta cheese. any thoughts on modifying the cheese ratios?

"Head coach Andy Enfield's game plan is far more complex than what we've even seen in the Big Dance."

great column for March.

eh...was Ray Guy even demonstrably better than his peers? no doubt he was good, but there wasn't a lot of differentiation between what he did and other punters. I'm having a hard time finding reliable net yardage numbers, but for gross yardage he ranks behind his peers of Dave Lewis, Jerrell Wilson, and Bobby Joe…

the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he was a QB

Based on opinions and comments I've seen over the past few years, most who reference WAR have begun to understand that BABIP is not the be-all and end-all it once was. Cain and Wakefield pretty much instigated that line of thought. It appears those that use advanced metrics are pretty much pulling a name out of a hat…

I assume this article was written in jest - other than a one-off here and there, no collection of players will do anything of substance in regards to this issue. They won't even make sacrifices in the collective bargaining agreement to better support the health care of former players. You think they're going to do…
