It is clear that the NFL is taking a hard stance on protecting QB’s, I ask the question, at what price to the NFL game.
About Seth Joyner
Joyner was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the eighth round of the 1986 NFL Draft. He was actually cut in training camp, but the Eagles re-signed him later in the season. Joyner played in the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles (1986–1993), Arizona Cardinals (1994–1996), Green Bay Packers (1997), and the Denver Broncos (1998).
Joyner's unique combination of strength and quickness allowed him to excel in all defensive statistical categories and propelled him to three Pro Bowl accolades; being selected in 1991, 1993, and 1994. In one Monday Night game in 1991 against the Houston Oilers, Joyner, playing with a 102-degree fever, recorded eight solo tackles, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and two sacks.
He was named NFL Player of the Year by Sports Illustrated that very same year and received runner-up honors for Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year , while a member of the Philadelphia Eagles. He won Super Bowl XXXIII as a member of the Broncos in 1999, which turned out to be his last game.

This debate was extremely interesting to say the least, to hear from current coaches, former players collegiate as well as professional, conference commissioners and broadcasters was quite insightful.

With no OTA’s and mini camps to implement new systems, and shortened training camps putting rookies at a distinct disadvantage, football will look sloppy for the first half of the season.

First credit must be given where it’s deserved! The Dallas Mavs were simply the best TEAM in this year’s NBA finals. Lead by finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki, the Mavs have a tremendous bench, which in my opinion was the difference in the championship.

Kobe Not Enough This Year

As great as Kobe Bryant is and has been, even if he scores 50 a game, it won’t be enough to save the inefficient talent level of the rest of this Lakers team.
Knicks Experience a Reoccurring Theme with D’Antoni

The New York Knicks look eerily like another team that head coach Mike D’Antoni has coached. One thing that coach D can do is put a team on the floor that produces points but defense.

When you think about Kentucky basketball and the mass exodus of players to the NBA each year what this year’s team is nothing short of miraculous. Granted, VCU and head coach Shaka Smart and Butler’s return to the Final four are Cinderella stories worthy of all the attention that they are getting. But with the [...]
ASU Wrestler Inspires Winning a National Title

I literally got chills down my spine as I watched Anthony Robles, an ASU Wrestler claim the 125 lb NCAA title today. Oh yea, did I failed to mention that Robles was born without his right leg? He is a great example of the power of the human spirit, and its ability to succeed against [...]
The Two-Faced Nature of the NCAA and BCS
Last week was a crazy week for College football. First the BCS strips USC of its championship and now the drama with Terrell Pryor and Ohio State. I’m still trying to understand how cash payments off the field gave Reggie Bush such an unfair advantage that it warranted the BCS stripping the entire Trojan team [...]
