It'll be like the Betamax / VHS wars of the 80's with RGIII and Plax.

My money is on the non-felon winning.

Hate to see a player so motivated playing for a rival. But it is refreshing to hear this -- so many of these guys don't learn.

What a moron. I think the bigger morons are the guys that make up lame excuses for their clients.

Revenge would be an elbow to the ribs , not " blowing out his knee out " . Don't know what Igor did the play before ?

He's been a bust because he can't compete at this level. What school did he come out of? And he doesn't have the mentality/attitude to dominate in the pros.

NFL network is like the spot for super models to host shows, good lord they have some hot women.

Not everyone agrees with you.

[url=http://www.nj.com/giants/index.ssf/2013/05/giants_aaron_curry_is_ready_to.html]Giants Aaron Curry is ready to show he's an elite linebacker | NJ.com[/url]

Ken Norton Jr. and new Giants linebacker Aaron Curry exchange text messages to this day. It was Norton, Curry says, who taught him the life lessons that set him on a path to reclaim his once "can’t-miss" career.
Norton, a former standout linebacker with the Cowboys and 49ers, came to the Seahawks as a position coach in Curry’s second season. By then, Curry said he was self-absorbed in his fame and fortune as the fourth pick overall in 2009, having signed a six-year, $60 million contract with $34 million guaranteed.
Immediately inserted as the starting strongside linebacker, Curry admitted he would pout if he didn’t like a defensive call. His checkbook took precedence over his playbook, he remembered, and his needs and wants superseded those of the Seahawks.
"Coach Norton was just honest with me," Curry said. "He would never let me slide on anything. He was harsh but I knew it was because he cared. He tried to get me to the point where I understood there was a certain way to be an NFL linebacker. It took some time."
Norton is old-school. He adheres to the lofty linebacker standards set by the likes of Lawrence Taylor, Carl Banks, Mike Singletary and Junior Seau. He pushed Curry to the limit.

Re: NFL News Offseason Style
 

I just remember Aaron Curry as that "sure thing" "can't miss" prospect when he came out. Now he's on his 3rd team in 2 years.
