10-year veteran Surry County investigator Bill Brinkman lost his job over the Michael Vick case. Did he botch something? Did he tamper with evidence?

During Iverson’s tenure as a Sixer every year I would hear, “Iverson has never played with anyone” and “Give Iverson another scorer and you’ll see him win.” Alright, well he’s surrounded with legitimate players in Denver and now what?

The perfect QB ain’t always so perfect. This is from a game against the Rams that has to be at least from 2006, because Tarik Glenn shuts Manning up. Peyton changes his tune when Glenn gets in his face, eh?
