    Concussion settlement has been initially rejected by the Judge pending more documentation from the parties about the justification for the $ figure.

      I guess I'm in the minority, but if its not on the field then I don't care. For all I know half of the league has handled this situation successfully millions of times before now. Its the same way about any celebrity. I appreciate and respect their work, but they're still complete strangers to me and I try not to relate to them on a personal level because you can always portray yourself to be something completely different than what you are.

        Stat of the day:

        Of the four remaining starting quarterbacks Manning is the only one that wasn't drafted by an MLB team.

          I knew about Kap & Russ, didn't know that about Brady.

          Interesting stat!

            I didn't either until today.

            Apparently the Expos drafted him in the 18th round.

              Montreal drafted Brady as a catcher back in 95.

                      He was but when he took over for Helton he made a conscious decision to let him have baseball so he could have football.

                          I care more about Foster and alleged pressure from him and his family members than anything else.
