nicemaybe he will turn into something.
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

Any word on how our corner did this week? He had a couple of picks the first week.

What about the guy who we sent on the d line. Someone posted that he was a monster in week 1.
DT Jerome Nichols (Frankfurt Galaxy) - Started at left defensive tackle and made a fumble recovery, plus one solo tackle.
This is what he did last week. I think he had three tackles this past weekend, BUT DON'T QUOTE ME ON THAT! Not sure.
He is doing real well. Still only has 2 sacks but he is a tackle and not an end.
It is always interesting to see how these guys do when they come back to the states. Most of them never pan out, but maybe it's Lucas' time to break out.
Wasn't that the dude with the hammertoe?

Maybe you mean ** this fella Ziggy. See below.
Aside from Lucas' record-breaking performance in that shootout, the other major NFL Europe story of the weekend was the Rhein Fire's 31-21 victory against the Hamburg Sea Devils. That victory gave the Fire a 4-0 record halfway through the NFL Europe season and added juice to this week's anticipated match between the undefeated Fire and the 3-1 Admirals.
Two Packers started for the league-leading Fire on Saturday. Center Pete Traynor helped open holes for 123 rushing yards while ** cornerback Therrian Fontenot ** recorded one tackle and one pass defensed.
In the final game of the weekend, the Frankfurt Galaxy defeated the Cologne Centurions 21-14. Packers defensive tackle Jerome Nichols recorded three tackles for the victorious squad. That win evened the Galaxy's record at 2-2 and positioned them in third place in the league.

Isnt Lucas like 6'3?
I believe that was Anthony Lucas, from Arkansas, with the hammertoes. I think they had to re-break his feet or something awful like that so he could run without pain. Got cut in our training camp, then caught on with the Cowboys, where he blew out each knee in consecutive training camps (I remember seeing this on HBO's training camp documentary on the Cowboys, maybe two or three years ago).

Well, at least he can catch and run. A TD of 50 yards is impressive, though I don't have a clue how talented the Thunder are. In a battle of NFL backups, its still nice to see that some of ours have potential.Packers | C. Lucas sets NFL touchdown mark
