Scott Pioli, the Patriots VP of Player Personnel and Belichik's righthand man interviewed with the Cleveland Browns for their open GMposition yesterday.
It has been rumored that Pioli has been given an offer he can't refusefrom the Browns organization. Probably not the same as a Corleoneoffer, but most likely will be hard to turn down. Now that probablyincludes final decision on all organizationa...

Everyone has seen the writing on the wall. Talks of a Larry Johnson trade have been in the works for years. Tony G...

Less than 24 hours after the NFL season ended, three head coaches were asked to clear out their offices.
New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini is out as of today. The decisionwas no doubt decided upon after a devastating loss at home to the MiamiDolphins 17-24. Yesterday's game was the deciding game for the AFC Eastcrown and ended up being the deciding game in Mangini's run in New York.
Mangini,...

Watching the Miami offense move down the field uncontested I feel likeDick Vermeil should be pacing the sidelines. This team is very similiarto the good 'ole Vermeil days in which we can pass, pass, pass all dayand couldn't stop any offense if they allowed the Chiefs 'D' to field15 players. In fact the only difference between this year's Chiefs teamand the Vermeil Chief's teams is that we just don...

Earlier this week it looked like Atlanta had signed former Brave Rafael Furcal to a three year deal. Speculation immediately turned to whether or not the Braves would trade either Yunel Escobar (the current Braves SS) or Kelly Johnson (the current Braves two bagger) for help in the rotation.

I like to think it was because of my latest blogthat the Hunt family finally cut ties with Carl. In typical J.D. (JohnDorian) fashion I sit and imagine Clark Hunt, owner of the Chiefs,sitting at his computer and reading my blog and saying, "You knowwhat....this guy's right. Yesterday's loss WAS too much for any one fanto stomach, off with 'King' Carl's head let's gently show Carl the door."

I'm not even going to mention anything about the first 58 minutes of a 60 minute game played in Arrowhead stadium on Sunday.
All I need to say is that the Chiefs had an 11 point lead with a minute and a half left in the game....playing at home.
The score was 21-10. The Chargers scored a touchdown with 1:13 left inthe game. After a failed 2-point conversion the Chargers found a way tocut the scor...
