Sports Illustrated Rates Ravens' Lewis Best #52
By now many of you have heard about or read the recent Sports Illustrated (SI.com) story that rates the best players at every uniform number from 00-99. The Baltimore Ravens' Ray Lewis comes out on top for the number 52, but to be honest, the competition wasn't that tough. The late Mike Webster...
Barry Sanders Will Be In Touchback Movie
Last week, I briefly mentioned that Barry Sanders might be in a movie that is currently being filmed on the west side of the state right now. The movie stars Kurt Russell and is titled Touchback. As you can probably tell, the movie is about football, and tomorrow night there is going to be a big...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1995
After two weeks off for a variety of reasons (most of which involved needing to devote my time to studying for my first test in more than two years), the Year-by-Year makes a triumphant return. 1995 was one of those awesome, sucky seasons. If you love reading about when the team was really, really...

Madden 2010 Curse: True or False
As we all know, and if you haven't figured it out yet, our very own Larry Fitzgerald and Steeler's safety Troy Polamalu will appear on next year's cover of Madden 2010. The most common criticism has been known as the "Madden Curse", so what does this mean for Fitzgerald (errr..and Troy)? If you're...
Friday Notes: Slowik Not Hired?
According to Tom Kowalski, former Broncos defensive coordinator Bob Slowik has not been hired as the Lions' defensive backs coach, and a hiring apparently "is not imminent," either. Apparently there is a "pretty strong rumor" that former Rams coach Scott Linehan will interview for the Lions...
Friday Notes: Jim Colletto Isn't Talking to the Media This Week
Barry Sanders was recently interviewed by SI.com's FanNation, and he talked about his decision to retire early, whether or not he watches his old games, and many, many other topics. Sanders also discussed the current Lions and really didn't have an answer as to why they continue to struggle so...
Barry Sanders is, at least debatably, a better RB than Jim Brown
Nothing whatsoever to do with Redskins football, but I feel obliged to defend a statement I made, that Barry Sanders was the best RB in NFL history, summarily dismissed. DC Pain said it was Jim Brown, and Hogs Haven co-author TexSkins agreed extending the point to beyond "even a debate." If you...
Saturday Notes: Smith Denied Number Change Request
And now for your daily Tatum Bell "bag-gate" update... Bell went on The Dan Patrick Show yesterday to defend himself and really didn't come out looking any less guilty. His story seems like it could be true at some points, but as Patrick said, there are too many loose ends. Bell easily could...
Wednesday Notes: Stanton Back in a Month?
Rudi Johnson is ready to study the playbook and is ready to play. To listen to an interview Johnson did with Stoney and Wojo yesterday, click here. Had he not signed with the Lions, Johnson had a visit scheduled with Houston and Cincinnati actually showed some interest in taking him back as...
