    Randall goes head to head against Dez Bryant, does a very credible job, and moves down from #8 to #14?

    Well, Bryant dropped 13 passes.

    Randall obviously had him terrified, looking over his shoulder, wondering how he would be abused.

    List is stupid. There's no rhyme or reason to it. But that's Bleacher Report for you.

    #Falcons RB Tevin Coleman slipped in the shower and hit his head on Wednesday. He's in the concussion protocol.

    The what now?

    Clearly this is a coverup. But who is covering up what?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Don't pass this one up:

    Chuck Woodson has two regrets, both plays were with the Packers.

    Interesting, I never would have identified Woodson as a guy who should feel personally responsible for the playoff loss to Arizona. But, as he described it, I can understand why he does.

    Great article. Wood regrets not being an ankle-biter. LOL

    It also says a lot about the NFL always giving the benefit of the doubt to the offense. Gotta keep the game interesting.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    Except if your name is James Jones and you are playing for the 2015 Green Bay Packers. Some of the OPI calls on him the last 5 or 6 games have been sketchy, at best.

    those plays still steam me up. But I would bet dimes to dollars that had he grabbed, they would have flagged him. F-ers.

    There was a period there when you could count on Woody getting flagged 3 or 4 times a game for d-holding. F-ers.

    If we're talking about that game, the one that got me the most was a non-call - the helmet to helmet on Rodgers late in the game. Don't remember the details of just when, but pretty sure it was a 4th down play. It was blatant, and considering the NFL had said it was a point of emphasis, it should've resulted in a 15 yard penalty.

    Wasn't it on the Rodgers fumble that was returned for the winning TD?

    Not really, Jones is one of my favorite Packers. But this season especially he pushes off A LOT. Sure defensive players get away with a ton also, but Jones could be called more than he is imo.

    Jones has a reputation as a big, strong player. He's been called a handful of times in 2015. One of them was blatant and should be called 100% of the time. All of the others ranged from "eh, yeah, technically that's OPI" to "utter horseshit" variety. But, he's built his own reputation so even if he doesn't push, if he has both hands on a DB and refs see full extension, they're going to be at least tempted to call it. Larry Fitzgerald gets away with that. Not James Jones.

    Except that several have been when both players were shoving, and Jones was simply the stronger. Good time for a no-call in my opinion. Another (the negated TD throw, as I recall) was simply a great acting job. The DB got caught sort of flat footed and off balance, so he reached out for Jones arm. Jones barely waved at the Db, and the DB fell to the ground with his arms and legs flailing. I thought I was watching soccer.
