When Vick went down ,Petrino was left with Harrington,and Redman an a injury prone Byron Leftwich,at qb.

Then he couldn't deal with the veteran players ,and he took to long to change his coaching style what works in the college ranks doesn't work in the NFL.So he decided to pack it it in ,and take the Arkansas job,sure the timing  was bad, but he is another of example of a successful college coach who failed with the big boys.

So, lets not sugar coat this he couldnt handle the NFL, and he realized early on he was way in over head ,GOOD RIDDENCE

Is everyone cheating, my man  Belichick finally got caught,now he was rumored to be cheating for years but with the ex comissioner he would let these things slide ,now under Goodell such things wont be  tolerated,now the Patriots were fined a pittance and the draft picks that will be taking away will hurt a little bit but Belichick and the Pats will be fine

Even in nascar the Mclaren team was fined 100 million for there rolling in a spying scandal, and in baseball take your pick, Ankiel,Mathews Jr,Dukes,there so much cheating going on in baseball they have what 2 or three commisions investigating,in wrestling every other week someone is drying before the age of 45 ,even in the world of mixed marshall arts,they joined the party and you have big names flunking drug test.

Tim Couch who really cares, you stunk from day one so,whatever,now the wayward Ricky Williams is attempting to be reinstated,if he's reinstated who is gonna take a chance on a addict.Even with the glowing remarks from his agent ,Ricky Williams doesnt belong in the NFL, he belongs in the woods teaching a class of 5 Yoga smoking trees,and when some team signs Tank Johnson and stands at the podium and he said he found jesusa better person,those chuckles you hear will be rightfully deserved.You have ole geezers like the juice acting like he's a cop ,plannng memoribilia stings like hes some king of  Fbi agent.Todd Marinivich ,in the news for violating is probation,he was picked up while riding his skateboard ,someone tell him he is a little old to be riding a skateboard at 37 in the daytime ,hey Todd maybe if you get a job you wont have so much time in your hands to smoke dope.

The modern day athlete is a reflection of a society  that has gone terribly  mad,the thing is we teach our kids that winning is the greatest thing in the world,so our kids are growing up to do whatever to win.Some parents are the problem.

Bud Seilg is going to fly around the country sitting in Stadiums,waving  at people maybe sharing a hot dog or two,and  he won't tell you because he is part politician part business man,but  he wants nothing to do with Barry Bonds, or his soon to be homerun record.I wish that Bonds stalls at 754 or retires at 754 and goes on with his life but I know better than that

If there wasn't pressure from outside sources Bud would not be in the stadium the night Bonds breaks the record,you know the homerun record,the one currently held by Henry Aaron.Bud why are you going ,you feel like the magority of us that Bonds used illegal substances ,that Bonds cheated, just because outside groups put the pressure on,you should of held to your convictions ,of course you would of been blasted but so what ,your getting blasted now for looking the other way during the the Steroid Scandel.Now I know why you did nothing when,slap hitters like   Brady Anderson started hitting 50 homeruns, the Game was suffering,The Game,needed a make over and from 1998  to 2004 it got one ,then a bitter broke Jose Canseco started writing BOOKS and the game has never been the same.Now we have guys like Ryan Howard popping up and hitting 58 dingers and people are saying ,maybe he's on steroids,Ryan Howard is 6''5 260 and young ,why would he need steroids at 24 or 25 years old,it's the dark cloud that hovers over baseball that won't go away. See Hank, won't be there because Hank is not a fake he feels Bonds is  a cheat and a fake so he's not going to be there.Then again Hank isn't the Commisioner, of Baseball ,but in a time when  everyone from that era 1998-2004 is a suspect,why not hold on to your beliefs just once, I wouldn't go if I was the Commisioner.

So when Barry breaks the record and you stand there with a fake smile and you congratulates him , and give ahalf speech about the record and so on ,you could of  stuck to your original line I DO HAVE A   DAY JOB, AND NOT BEEN THERE.

They have one ,he plays in Cincinati ,his name is Ken Griffey Jr,he has played the game with a passion  and a smile from day one. The reason we don't gravitate to him anymore is because he's injury prone and too nice.

We live in a society thats  adores problem childs ,America loves characters,  we like Boomer  because we know he's gonna say something funny or controversial, we like Schilling he's a character too ,we liked the moodiness and bad attitude of Randy Johnson.We love Barry Bonds,and you know why because over the years he gave us what we wanted attitudes and quotes and stares we still eat it up.

So guys like Griffey,Jeter, Sweeney,who do there job well but are as quotable as a  rock we ignore.

So when the media says baseball   needs  a hero they have plenty but, but the media like controversial figures.It's like the channel 7 news or cnn news show the bad news first  and often , how many times did they repeat the 101 year old lady getting beat down by that savage.

OH well ,maybe we can talk more about good guys .....whoops can't do that they  don't sell enough papers  or get enough hits on there websites.

Why do the writers waste their ink on Ricky Williams ,he can't be trusted.the Fins should cut him loose.He failed another drug  test ,and you know what I'm not surprised,the doctor's are saying he has a disorder,some social thing but weed isn't prescribed to get rid of a social disorder.Ricky why not take something else for your social disorder something  prescribed by  a certified doctor.

If I'm the owner of the Dolphins ,i wash my hands of Ricky i would eat the 8.6 million in bonus paid to him ,and say adios,let Ricky teach Yoga full time ,or  play in Canada,and when he's 40 years old he''ll look back  on how he wasted his career ,over weed.

This man has young children that are going to grow up hearing that there daddy is a addict but kids use harsher words than addict.To top it off how is he going to provide for them if  football is permanently taken away.

He is no good to the Dolphins, he's a addict and has no trade value.The Sheriff Goodell would do a great thing if he never reinstates Ricky, this would strike fear in future players whose mind set is THATS IT'S ONLY WEED nonsense

This man should never  be allowed to play in the league again,he doesn't respect the game or his career. Ricky, have fun teaching Yoga in a safari in Africa or Cali,or whatever god forsaken place.

Well Barry Bonds is on the verge of breaking Hanks homerun record ,we all know this but let truth be told Hammering Hank hit about 1000 homeruns if you include his #### League stats.

Please don't say those don't count  because there are tons of players who played in the Magor Leagues  and  the #### Leagues.

Since baseball is about numbers and stats,Hank Aaron is all time rbi leader  with 2,297,extra base hits 1,477,total bases 6,856 ,24 all star appearances,24 all star appearances that means Hank was great for 24 years  thats  unheard of.There are other stats like hits,  most seasons with at least 150.

Will Mark McGwire ever be elected to the Hall?

Will Barry Bonds be elected to the Hall of Fame?

Who  is going to be the number one pick in the NFL  Draft?

Who the better pro PROSPECT  Russell or Quinn?

Will Jason  Kidds pending divorce efffect the the Nets play and his play?

Will Bill Parcell return to coach the cowboys in 2007?

Why does Matt Millen still have a job?
