Washington Redskins were also targeted by an imposter using a fake female identity online | Shutdown Corner - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/washington-redskins-were-targeted-imposter-using-fake-female-181105506--nfl.html)

I thought CJ Miles was an NBA player.

Boy was I wrong.

Didn't Ray Lewis also have 12?

Gibbs was/is better than Belichick. 3 SB w/ 3 QB's, 2 of them being average in talent. Could Belichick have won his SB's without Brady?

BB not only had one of the best QB in the league, but a QB that has been protected by the league (Tuck Rule/Brady Rule/Favoritism). Also, Gibbs had all his success without having to be the biggest prick in the league like Belichick.

True, but those two other players didn't appear on the cover of SI looking like this a few years after those deaths:


I don't know how this cover changes the fact that actually killing a person is still worst than being connected or accused of being an accessory to a murder. I am not trying to defend Ray Lewis and I think what he did was terrible. I just think it is a big naive to harp on what happened, when NFL players have done worst and gotten away with it.

Hell, even Michael Vick went through more backlash for what he did, than what L. Little and Stallworth did.

Junior Seau's Family Sues NFL Over Brain Injuries (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/23/junior-seau-family-sues-nfl-brain-injuries-lawsuit_n_2534970.html?ref=topbar)
"Helmet manufacturer Riddell Inc., also is being sued by the Seaus, who say Riddell was "negligent in their design, testing, assembly, manufacture, marketing, and engineering of the helmets" used by NFL players. The suit says the helmets were unreasonably dangerous and unsafe."

Personally, I don't agree with them being able to sue either the NFL or Riddell. I believe the family is just as much at fault because they must have seen some of the effects while he was still playing and they know him well enough to have seen the subtleties that come with brain trauma (concussion) ect... But did nothing while the good life was "good".

Sorry if that comes off harsh but its just my opinion.

He looked bad in the playoffs. Wonder if his elite status is waning.

Champ hasn't been "elite" in years.

Dude's old. He should probably consider hanging it up.
