Re: NFL Off Topic

For you folks that wanted to see the Seahawks punished(again):

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll’s admission that cornerback Richard Sherman was dealing with a knee injury that wasn’t listed on the injury report touched off an NFL investigation last month and there was a report that the team could lose a second-round draft pick as a result.

The team was stripped of a fifth-round pick for violating the league’s rules on offseason workouts and the report indicated that the penalty might be upgraded due to the failure to list Sherman’s injury. That was called “foolishness” by Sherman and now a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Media suggests that any discipline won’t be that drastic.

Rapoport reports that the team is not expected to be penalized heavily “if at all” because a review of materials related to Sherman’s injury found that the team “did not commit an egregious rules violation.” Sherman never missed any game time and took part in the Pro Bowl, which Rapoport cites as a factor in that decision.

Seahawks General Manager John Schneider said recently that the team didn’t do anything “out of the norm” and it sounds like the league may have reached a similar conclusion.

Re: NFL Off Topic

My opinions of some of the SB commercials:

Skittles - This was pretty good. Got me laughing after the grandma.

Bai - Simple but funny and I drink the stuff every day. It's really damn good.

Stranger Things 2 - Nailed it and got me pumped for the second season

Buschhhhhhhhhhhhh - It was stupid but funny at the same time

T-mobile - The one with Gronk/Biebs. What a flop. Thought this was a pretty terrible ad.

Audi - Biggest POS ad and it's getting ripped to shreds on youtube. People are really getting fed up with this garbage.

Only ones I really liked were the World Of Tanks, Skittles and NFL Shop/Network ad.

How about the oil industry lobby showing how they make progress or innovation possible?

If a workers comp bill passes in Illinois the NFLPA will recommend free agents not sign with the Bears.

Man, if that happens I bet Bears players will be screaming for a trade/be released LOL

Seriously, that's pretty messed up that the PA can do that.

Re: NFL Off Topic

It's pretty messed up the state of Illinois would even consider such legislature. I don't blame the PA one bit.

The PA should recommend not signing with the bears anyway

Re: NFL Off Topic

Forgive me if this has been reported here but apparently Shanahan is looking at acquiring Kirk Cousins if the Redskins don't franchise tag him.

I can't remember if it's been posted here, but over here in the DC area they've been pushing the rumor since before he took the SF gig. It gained big time legs as soon as he did.

I don't know if that makes it seem more or less true. I have no doubt he'll try, but am just as confident he won't have a real chance.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Its one of those cute rumors to run with at it is a "fit" as far as the Media sees it. San Fran has the #2 pick and holes everywhere. Washington knowing that will want the 2 firsts (from franchising him) without even thinking about it. Is Kirk Cousins worth a #2 overall pick and $24 million a year this year?

That said, I think the Redskins organization is going to lock Kirk up and ride it out with him.

Re: NFL Off Topic

49ers fans are not going to support trading the #2 for any QB.

Especially if the Browns don't take Garrett.
