Derek Anderson paralyzed for life

By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment

We’re just now getting late-breaking word that our headline is off a bit. It seems that an injured knee will sideline him for the rest of the season. The Browns lost Brady Quinn a week or so ago and now they have lost Anderson. Have fun with Ken Dorsey!

Kyle Kosier dead

By Micah Warren | 1 Comment

Dammit! We just made this mistake with Brady Quinn and then we did it again. Cowboys G Kyle Kosier (pronounced like Bernie Kosar) has been placed on injured reserve. Being placed on injured reserve ends your season. Therefore, Kosier is done for the season.
But thankfully, he’s not dead. We tend [...]

Brady Quinn dead

By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment

Once again, we got ahead of ourselves with the headline. We completely misinterpreted the data on this one. Quinn isn’t dead, but he’s not far from it. He’s out for the year.
While his busted finger didn’t cause paralysis or death, it did cause him to be lost for the remainder of the [...]

By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment

In a move that will likely remove the Redskins from Super Bowl contention, they have decided to part ways with Shaun Alexander.
In a Machiavellian move, the Skins have decided that they are willing to sacrifice the run game in exchange for help on the D-line.

Dr. James Andrews to look at Quinn’s finger

Giants sign Edgar Renteria

By Micah Warren | 2 Comments

WFAN in NY is reporting that the Giants have signed shortstop Edgar Renteria.
This must mean that Brandon Jacobs is hurt worse than they are leading on and that they need depth at running back.
It’s a two-year, $18 million deal, which is a lot for a backup running back.

Well, well, well. What a game. I’m not sure where to even start with this one. Anyway, let’s look at the game:

-The Phillies won the World Series?

…and not so much…
-Donovan was brutal and I can understand wanting to try [...]
