Talking NFL on The Jim Rome show on Easter Friday. Listen now!
Wow! This was big yesterday. I believe Jim Rome has about 5 million listeners daily. He is the biggest sports radio guy in USA with his show going to many USA markets. Many places in Canada also carry his daily 3 hour sports radio show.

I just subscribed to his online pod cast to re listen and I was on for 3 minutes without him interrupting at all. He bagged me a bit after the 3 minutes saying "I didn't understand Myk, I heard about Brett Favre and Darren Bennett." but then he said "No Myk I did understand you. That was Myk for 3, 5, 8 minutes however long that was and yes we do see Myk down at Super Bowl's in the Media Centre. That was Myk Aussie in Calgary". If you are a subscriber or wish to subscribe to his great radio show I was on in the 3rd hour segment on Friday March 21 Click here

If you can't listen here's what I said. I talked about the time I tried to hunt down and interview Brett Favre. I also talked about the Denver Broncos and about the Aussie punters in the NFL.

Talking NFL and AFL on The Jim Rome show on Easter Friday!
If you can't listen here's what I said. I mentioned Aussie Rules Football several times on The Jim Rome Show including saying NFL is the equal best game in the World along with Aussie Rules Football. I talked about how Darren Bennett changed the NFL the way NFL punters now punt using the Aussie Rules Footy drop punt when they need to land the ball inside the 20 yard line. I also talked about Aussies Mat McBriar, Ben Graham and Sav Rocca currently punting in the NFL along with how the Pittsburg Steelers punter Daniel Sepulveda who is from the USA learnt and effectively uses the Aussie drop punt.

Contd from NFL webWORLD! Green Bay Packers legend Quarterback Brett Favre has retired! I tried to hunt down and interview Brett in the locker rooms after a loss to the Vikings in Minnesota several years ago on a Monday night. This is a very interesting part of "Football Fan Frenzy" the movie/documentary! 
This was obviously Huge sports radio and TV talk this week as Brett is a absolute legend. After several years of Brett contemplating retiring and then coming back many thought that he would go again after leading the Packers to the NFC Championship game and himself having a great year. This was not to be and today Brett announced his retirement via a voice message to a ESPN sports reporter. Brett said that although physically he could go again it was mentally very draining for him in preparing each week. I would have a guess we will now enjoy listening to Brett from the commentary box or on one of the major networks NFL panel. I hope so. What a pleasure it has been to watch Brett play this great game. 

After several of my mates in Vancouver were huge Packer fans and myself liking them because they are Australia's Colors I tried to interview Brett in the locker rooms after a loss to the Vikings in Minnesota several years ago on a Monday night. Opinion has it this is a funny and quite interesting part of my movie/documentary "Football Fan Frenzy" as I wear my Green and Gold Woodville Warriors SANFL Aussie Footy jersey and Green and Gold Aussie hat to the game, on the sidelines and then into the Packers locker rooms. I however made a mistake and learnt the hard way. Don't go into a losing teams locker rooms for interviews as some officials are not to keen on media people after a loss. On this night one Packers official for no apparent reason got upset with me. I had a official NFL media pass from the Vikings organization but..... Hmmmmm. 

This is the 1st time I have ever told the full story. For some Hardcore reasons here goes! So this is what happened. My media pass said Myk Harrison. As I was heading to the Packers locker rooms after interviewing ABC's Leslie Visser on the sidelines I walked past some ladies or should I just say women cops on the way to the Packers locker rooms. I was a little confident and said "Hi ladies. Are you having fun" or something similar. I purposely showed them my media pass to avoid any possible trouble and all seemed cool. So then I'm in the Packers locker rooms as mentioned in my Green and Gold outfit and a damn ball steward or dirty footy gear official or similar came up to me for no apparent reason and wanted me out. So I left the room and then put on a sweater over my Aussie footy jersey and went back in. At this stage I had done nothing wrong. The same guy or should I say "low type Big headed sore loser official" then recognized me and again wanted me out. So I leave and this time Crazingly one of the women cops wants to talk to me after this "low type Big headed sore loser official" complained to her about me simply standing in the locker rooms before I was wanting to interview Brett. I tell the women cop I've done nothing wrong which is 100% true. She looks at my media pass then wants to see my ID. So I show her my Canadian and Australian Drivers licenses. Well here is where I had some bad luck. Both my Drivers licenses say my real name which is not Myk Harrison but Myk backwards thus Kym Andrew Harrison. The women cop not lady then basically walks me out holding my arm in a firm manner and says I'm lucky I'm not on the 1st boat home to Australia. Un farking believable. What did I do wrong? Damn well nothing but I know one thing at this stage I simply had to keep my mouth 100% shut accept the fact this woman cop was a farking glory seeker that needed to earn her money on this night and she could have caused me major trouble. Maybe some Aussie had banged her in the past and then dumped her.

I then went and meet up with some great Vikings fans and ended up at a Hotel room party till 4 am. I then went straight back to my hotel room to grab my bags and straight to the airport for my return trip to Vancouver via Denver. What a wild but great night. This above is a 100% true story. This is in the movie/documentary "Football Fan Frenzy" and maybe this is why it happened, to have a great true Brett Favre hunting story in my movie/documentary. As I said recently to Scotty a mate here in Calgary we will need to re enact some of this as it is not 100% clear in the movie. You can see the women cops as I walk past them on the way to the Packer rooms and the "low type Big headed sore loser official" walk towards my camera. 

Oh now I get it. I should not have worn my trade mark Green and Gold Aussie hat and a Green and Gold Aussie Footy jersey. OK. So seems I did do something wrong. Bullshit!  

So there goes I never got to met and interview Brett. Then at the 3 NFL Pro Bowl after this night that I had official NFL Media passes Brett withdrew from the Pro Bowls. Let me know if any of you guys or gals want a copy of the movie/documentary "Football Fan Frenzy".

NFL DEMONSTRATES COMMITMENT TO INTERNATIONAL GROWTH

OWNERS APPROVE LONG-TERM AGREEMENTS TO BRING LIMITED NUMBER OF REGULAR-SEASON GAMES TO U.K. & CANADA

 

The NFL continues to strengthen its commitment to spreading the appeal of America’s most popular sport beyond the borders of the United States.

 

After a successful regular-season debut in the United Kingdom last October, NFL Commissioner ROGER GOODELL announced today a multi-year commitment to play a limited number of NFL regular-season games in the U.K. on an annual basis.

 

Commissioner Goodell has endorsed the recent recommendation of two ownership committees (Business Ventures and International) to play at least one game in the U.K. in each of the next three years.  The league previously announced on January 17 that a regular-season game would be played in the U.K. in 2008.  Today, Commissioner Goodell confirmed that the New Orleans Saints will host the San Diego Chargers at London’s Wembley Stadium on October 26.  There also will be at least one regular-season game in the U.K. in 2009 and 2010, Commissioner Goodell said.

 

NFL ownership has also approved a Buffalo Bills initiative to play one regular-season home game in Toronto, Canada in each of the next five seasons.  More information on the Bills’ plans to expand their fan base to the north will be announced by the team next week.

 

With these two decisions, NFL owners are again demonstrating their commitment to international growth through long-term decisions to play in specific markets. 

 

“Playing a limited number of regular-season games internationally will help build and grow an already passionate international fan base,” Commissioner Goodell said.  “The games will strengthen our partnerships with broadcasters and sponsors.  The ownership resolution to play regular-season games internationally has evolved to focus on markets, including the U.K. and Canada, where playing games on a regular basis significantly adds to the broad appeal of our sport.”

 

The Chargers and Saints are teams with recent playoff success and they are eager to play in front of the enthusiastic fans in the U.K.

 

“This is a unique and exciting opportunity for our team and we are very proud to represent our region and our great fans when we travel to the United Kingdom in late October,” said New Orleans Saints owner TOM BENSON.  “The national and international exposure that our team, our city and our state will receive will be unprecedented.  The league has been playing overseas since the 1980s and last year was the first regular-season game in Europe, featuring the Giants and Dolphins.  The Giants used that game as a springboard to their Super Bowl run and I hope we are as successful.”

 

In 2006, NFL owners approved a five-year plan to play a limited number of regular-season games outside the United States.  The series kicked off in London on October 28, 2007 when the New York Giants defeated the Miami Dolphins 13-10 before a sellout crowd of 81,176 at Wembley Stadium.

 

“We’re proud to be chosen,” said Chargers president DEAN SPANOS.  “This is another positive step in the effort to globalize our great sport.  It’s an opportunity for the NFL to show off two of its marquee teams and some of its best players.  In particular, it’s going to be good exposure for the Chargers, our players and our city and another opportunity for our team to grow together.  We’re looking forward to it.” From NFL Media.

News direct from NFL Media.

October 7-8 Designated NFL Breast Cancer Awareness Weekend Across NFL Stadiums     

The National Football League will support October’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month with national public service announcements, special pregame ceremonies and team community outreach. The NFL has designated the weekend of October 7-8 as NFL Breast Cancer Awareness Weekend.   

The league will  promote breast cancer awareness messages during that weekend  with a number of pregame and in-stadium initiatives:

·     Team Captains Presentation:  Each home team will name honorary team captains from the community, who have been touched by breast cancer or are involved in fighting the disease.  Honorary captains will be invited onto the field for the pregame coin toss, where captains from each club will deliver a bouquet of pink roses to them. 

·     “Pins That Touch Hearts”: Team coaches, management and game staff personnel will wear pink ribbon/NFL shield pins during the October 7-8 games.  

·    Pink Gatorade Towels: Players will use special-edition pink Gatorade towels on the sidelines during the games.  Players will autograph these towels and other pink merchandise, which will be put up for bid on NFL Auction (nflauction.nfl.com), with proceeds going to breast cancer charities.

·     Stadium Give-Aways:  Together with Lifetime Television, teams will give away pink ribbon “temporary tattoos” to fans attending games on October 7-8. These pink ribbon tattoos will also be distributed with all purchases made via NFLShop.com during the month of October.

·     Local Team Events: Many teams will extend the national platform with local grassroots efforts.  Teams will designate home games in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and plan special in-stadium or pregame events with local organizations.

As part of the NFL’s partnership with Lifetime Television in its “Stop Breast Cancer for Life” campaign, Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback RONDE BARBER and Carolina Panthers quarterback JAKE DELHOMME  filmed  public service announcements to air on the network throughout October, reaching more than 93 million families across the country.   Barber and Delhomme, the only athletes featured in this year’s campaign, are two among many NFL players and coaches who have been actively involved in supporting this cause.   Barber  filmed  the PSA to honor his mom Geraldine, a breast cancer survivor, while Delhomme’s PSA focuses on  his family members who had breast cancer.   In addition, a special PSA starring actress, breast cancer survivor and NFL fan FRAN DRESCHER, will be played on in-stadium video boards throughout October.  Drescher’s PSA focuses on early breast cancer detection and on ways to be supportive of those who are battling the disease. NFL Breast Cancer Awareness Weekend will be highlighted with features on NFL.com and on the NFL Network.

Footy and Sports guys and gals this product is selling excellently for me on MYKwebWORLD! Bill Romanowski and Thomas Incledon PhD, their "Pure Romo Nutrition" is the ultimate combination of scientific research and brain enhancement. I use it, it's great and it tastes great as well Click here

News from NFL Media.
Sixty years ago next Friday (on September 29, 1946), the NFL champion and newly transplanted (from Cleveland) Los Angeles Rams played their first regular-season game in their new home town. The 10-team NFL, with teams only as far “west” as Chicago and Green Bay up to that point, was now truly national.

Rams owner DANIEL REEVES had received approval from the NFL on January 11 of that year to move the club west. By the time the Rams took the field on September 29, they had made history by their move and who they signed.

On March 9 and March 21 of that year, the club signed halfback KENNY WASHINGTON and end WOODY STRODE, respectively. Both players were from UCLA. The signings marked the reintegration of the NFL . a year before the Brooklyn Dodgers signed JACKIE ROBINSON (a roommate of Washington’s at UCLA). (Later that year, head coach PAUL BROWN of the Cleveland Browns of the All-America Football Conference continued the reintegration of pro football by signing fullback MARION MOTLEY and guard BILL WILLIS.) Washington and Strode joined the team as it trained at Compton College in Los Angeles.

On September 29 in its inaugural Los Angeles game, the Rams were defeated by the “hard-driving” (as the Associated  Press described them) Philadelphia Eagles, 25-14.

Many of the phrases and descriptions used by A.P. in recounting the game seem quaint by today’s standards: “A hard-driving Philadelphia Eagles team pounded and kicked a 25-14 victory over the champion Los Angeles Rams in the first National Football League game played in the West.”. “Some 30,500 fans braved a sweltering and occasionally sprinkling day.”  “The first of Roy Zimmerman’s boots stung the Rams into action. With Bob Waterfield passing and directing the strategy, they marched 75 yards with Pat West banging over from the one.”

 “A 72-yard breakaway smash over center by West set up the Rams’ other touchdown.”
 “Los Angeles lost something in the second half, however, after Waterfield…was badly shaken in a hard tackle. After his departure, the Rams’ offense fizzled and the Eagles began clicking.” . “Southpaw passes by the Eagles’ Al Sherman [Ed. note: future New York Giants head coach] pulled the game out of the fire.”

The Rams would finish their first season in Los Angeles in second place in the NFL’s Western Division with a 6-4-1 record. They would stay in the city through 1994, compiling a 364-299-18 (.549) record. In that time, they would win an NFL championship (1951), five conference championships, 10 division titles and have 13 players/coaches selected for the Pro Football Hall of Fame (GEORGE ALLEN, ERIC DICKERSON, TOM FEARS, ELROY “CRAZYLEGS” HIRSCH, DAVID “DEACON” JONES, TOM MACK, OLLIE MATSON, MERLIN OLSEN, DANIEL REEVES, JACKIE SLATER, NORM VAN BROCKLIN, BOB WATERFIELD and JACK YOUNGBLOOD).

The Oakland Raiders also would play in Los Angeles from 1982-94. The NFL plans to return to Los Angeles. “I think we will have a team back in Los Angeles,” says NFL Commissioner ROGER GOODELL. “We’d like to do it as soon as possible, but it’s more important that we do it successfully. The most important thing is not a timetable. It’s more about doing it correctly.”

JETS QB CHAD PENNINGTON, RAVENS LB RAY LEWIS  & COLTS K ADAM VINATIERI NAMED AFC PLAYERS OF WEEK 1

Quarterback CHAD PENNINGTON of the New York Jets, linebacker RAY LEWIS of the Baltimore Ravens and  kicker ADAM VINATIERI of the Indianapolis Colts are the AFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played on NFL Kickoff 2006 Weekend (September 7, 10-11), the NFL announced today.

OFFENSE: QB CHAD PENNINGTON, NEW YORK JETS

With precision-like accuracy, the Jets’ Pennington led all NFL quarterbacks on Kickoff Weekend with 319  passing yards in a 23-16 win at Tennessee. The seven-year veteran from Marshall completed 24 of 33 attempts (72.7 percent) with two touchdowns without an interception for a sterling 123.2 passer rating. Returning from shoulder surgery after missing 13 games last season, the Knoxville, Tenn. native was sharp before a throng of family and friends in the stands. With the score tied at 16-16 with 5:51 remaining in regulation, Pennington led the Jets on a 57-yard touchdown drive, capped by a 12-yard dart in the end zone to tight end CHRIS BAKER for the game’s final points.
This is Pennington’s fourth career Player of the Week honor.

DEFENSE: LB RAY LEWIS, BALTIMORE RAVENS

The seven-time NFL All-Star and two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year led a Ravens defense that made a statement in Week 1, shutting out the defending NFC South champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium 27-0. Making plays from sideline-to-sideline, Lewis’ presence was felt with a team-high 10 tackles, including a sack and a pair of passes defensed. The 6-1, 250-pounder was the heart of a Baltimore defense that permitted only 26 rushing yards on 13 carries (2.0-yard average) and just 2.8 yards per play overall along with forcing three interceptions.
For Lewis, in his 11th NFL season from Miami, this is his sixth Player of the Week award. Lewis is the
second Raven in the past six regular season weeks to earn the honor as teammate TERRELL SUGGS
earned the distinction in Week 13 last season.

SPECIAL TEAMS: K ADAM VINATIERI, INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Signed in the off-season as a highly-valued free agent, Vinatieri brought the Colts immediate dividends Sunday night in a 26-21 road victory against the New York Giants. Playing his first game in an Indianapolis uniform, Vinatieri was a perfect four-for-four in field goal attempts from 26, 32, 48, and 32 yards. The former NFL Europe League standout’s fourth field goal with 1:12 remaining in regulation significantly boosted the Colts’ lead from two points to five for the team’s margin of victory. This marks the ninth-career Player of the Week honor for the 11-year veteran from South Dakota State.

Thurs, June 29 06 "Former Vikings Running Back Onterrio Smith fails to make the CFL Winnipeg Blue Bombers! This is great news because he is a Whizzinator Jerk! We are now into CFL Rd 3" Myk Aussie

From a May 11, 05 report I found today "Vikings running back Onterrio Smith was detained last month at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport after police found a kit used to circumvent drug tests.

Smith was neither arrested nor charged, but as of Tuesday it was unclear whether the incident will affect his status in the NFL's confidential substance-abuse program.

Smith acknowledged to airport police that he was carrying dried urine, along with a device called "The Original Whizzinator" and a bottle of pills labeled "Cleansing Formula." He told police the kit was "for making a clean urine test," according to the police report, and said he was taking the materials to his cousin.

Yeh sure for your cousin hey! Mates I had heard about this but until I decided to search on Google term "Whizzinator" I didn't really know what the Whizzinator was. I heard it was some kind of machine to beat a drug test but it's a "fake pecker".

This is nuts, ridiculous, a disgrace to mankind that these are even made. I am so glad Smith did not make the CFL Winnipeg Blue Bombers team. Apparently he arrived at training camp in not that good a shape. Now here's the link to the makers site of the Whizzinator for any one of you that wants a huge laugh. Check out the "Products" link it's hilarious but a disgrace Click here

After a Huge last quarter in game 1 Champ NFLer Running Back Ricky Williams struggled or can I say he had a shocker rushing for 14 yards off 8 carries. Seems the whole Argo's team really struggled. Can I suggest losing Champ QB Damon Allen the 2005 MVP last week was the main reason." Myk

Ricky's 1st official game in the CFL was on Saturday in Toronto at the Skydome where the MLB Blue Jays also play. Ricky had a slow start to the game but his last quarter was very good. He ended up with 18 carries for 97 yards his longest being a 35 yard run in the last quarter. He also caught 2 passes for 24 yards which included a 18 yard run. I am very happy that Ricky had a great end to his 1st game after he struggled to break clear in the 1st half. He looked very happy in the last quarter and after the game as he chatted to his teammates on the sidelines." Myk

One of the Rollerchair models. Big Ben is very lucky he is not permanently in one of these!

Big Ben was not wearing a helmet and was hit by a car in which a 62 year old lady was driving. The doctors spent 7 hours yesterday operating on Ben as he received a broken jaw, broken teeth, a 9 inch cut on his head and knee injuries. Wow! This is insane, why was Ben not wearing a helmet? Well apparently in Pennsylvania one does not have to wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle. Now that's a crazy stupid law right there! I saw a TV interview where Ban said he gets a better free type feeling riding without a helmet. Damn him, I am not a Steelers fan but I am a Ben Roethlisberger fan. He has done a amazing job at Quarter Back for the Steelers since coming into the league. I hope that we does recover and that we see him play this year.

This is especially to young guys and girls out there reading this! Before I started in Media 9 years ago I was a Mechanical Design Engineer and one of the places I worked was Rollerchair in South Australia. This was a excellent design job as I was helping design the best electric wheelchairs in Australia for people with handicaps and injuries. Some of the orders that came to me simply amazed me. I remember I had to design a electric wheelchair for a boy that was tiny. He had no arms and very tiny legs and he would have to crawl onto the foot part of the wheelchair and then via pneumatic cylinders he would be raised up to the seat where he would then climb onto and sit. This amazed me , I felt glad that I could design a wheelchair that would help him and I especially felt very lucky to have a healthy normal body.

My point here is "most" of the electric wheelchairs that we designed and made at Rollerchair were for motorcycle victims!

From the NFL Media today. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  June 12, 2006
Steelers President Art Rooney’s Statement Regarding Ben Roethlisberger’s Motorcycle Accident
“On behalf of everyone within the Steelers organization, I want to express my concern for Ben Roethlisberger. I am sure Ben knows that we are praying for his complete recovery. So far, we have been encouraged by the early reports from the medical team at Mercy Hospital.

“Our public relations staff will pass along any additional updates as we receive them from the hospital.” Art Rooney, Steelers President" Myk

NCAA - NFL Draft Report: Who did the Best?" Moose Salzer, MYKwebTV Correspondent
1) Houston - Rating: B-. Top Player chosen to watch: North Carolina St.DE, Mario Williams
2) New Orlean - A-. Reggie Bush, RB-WR-K/PR. Watch this guy! 1,500-1,800 yards might not be out of the question for Sean Payton's team !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3) Tennessee - B-. Don't blame Texas QB Vince Young (who may end up being either a WR or TE! Floyd Reese, G.M. has lost his mind if he releases Steve McNair!
4th & 29th Picks): New York Jets. A: Kellen Clements, QB, Oregon.
5) Green Bay: A+! Bravo! The Winner of the 2006 NFL Draft. Top Pick: A.J. Hawk, LB, THE Ohio State, indeed! The most underrated player in the draft. Another Ray Lewis/Brian Urlacher style LB who will be their best LB ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
6th & 22nd Picks: San Francisco: Brandon Williams (no relation to Houston's top pick). A very productive draft for the rebounding 48er's. Rating: A-.
7) Oakland - B: Michael Huff, DB, Texas.
8th & 26th Picks):Gabe Morency's Buffalo Bills: John McCargo, DT, N.C. St. Played along Houston's top Pick, Mario Williams. Will star for years. Best DLm since Kurt Warner's college roomie, DE-LB Bryce Paup or Norfolk's Bruce Smith.
9) Detroit - B-. Brian Calhoun, RB, Wisconsin

10) Arizona - A-. Matt Leinart. Will back up Kurt Warner, but is already better than hometown boys, Dave Navarre and Jake (The Flake) Carpenter, er, ah, the Plumber.
11) Denver - C-. Dave Cutler, QB, Vandebilt. Tested well...but gives the Broncos now THREE SECOND STRING QBs. Has Mike Shanahan lost his marbles!?
12) Baltimore - C-- Has Brian Billick LOST HIS MARBLES?! The Ravens need a QB AND THE CARDINALS WOULD HAVE ALLOWED THEM TO TRADE UP! Why the (bleep) didn't they go after Young or Leinart?! Top player to watch, by default, DT, Oregon, Haloti Ngata (sushi anyone?!)
13) Cleveland - B+. Kamerlon Wimbley, DE, Florida St.
14) Philadelphia - B. Chris Gokong, LB, California Polytechnic @ San Louis Obyspo (John Madden and radio talk guy Tom Valentine's old school)
15) Saint Louis - B+. Joe Klopfenstein, TE, Colorado.
16) Miami - A-. Derek Hagan, WR, Arizona St.
17) Minnesota - A-. Travis Jackson, QB, Alabama St.
18) Dallas - B+. Jason Hatcher, DE, Grambling St.
19) San Diego - B+. Charlie Whitehurst, son of ex-Green Bay / Kansas City QB, David Whitehurst. If Doug Flutie DOESN'T come back as reserve QB, then you can do worse than somebody who's dad played 7 yrs.in the NFL from 1977-83.

20)Kansas City - B: Brodie Croyle. Impressed at Indy Combines. Schooled under Mike Shula at Alabama. A smart pick, in case something happens to ex-CFL'r's Trent Green and Casey Printers. Since they screwed up with their choice of 'new' Coach, anything from here out helps!
21) New England - A-. Dave Thomas, WENDY's, er, ah, TE, Texas. Fourth NCAA Champ team player picked. Could be the most underrated. Keep an eye on him!
23) Tampa Bay - D. Worst and least productive draft out there. I guess Jay Gruden couldn't help his brother Jonny, with his Orlando Predators this close to Ar.FL playoffs. Jeremy Trueblood, OT, Boston College (Doug Flutie's old school).
24) Cincinnati - C++. Jonathan Joseph, DB, South Carolina.
25) Defending Champ Pittsburgh (still hate to say that!) C++. Anthony Smith, Syracuse.
27) My beloved Carolina Panthers, A-. James Anderson, LB, Virginia Tech.
28) Jacksonville - B. Maurice Drew, RB, UCLA.
30) Indianapolis - C. Freddie Kelaho, LB, San Diego. Hard working kanaka LB.
31) Seattle - A--. Darryl Tapp, DE, Virginia Tech.
32) Last Pick in First Round [top picks in second for those without First picks, below**:] New York Giants - Gerris Wilkinson, OLm. Should have drafted a QB - Eli, yuck! ** Chicago - Dusty Dvorak, DT, Oklahoma St. Another 'Grabowski' that will fit in well for Lovel Smith's 'D'. ** Atlanta - Jerious Norwood, RB, Miss. St.**Washington - Kili Lefotu, OLm, Arizona. Foget the other guys, he'll start right away. Joe 'Boss Hogg' Bugel will love this Kanaka (with a capital 'K'!)................Keep an eye on!" Moose

"Myk, I'm losing it? 30 teams in the NFL told him to jump in the lake! That left only Dallas and the (now) damn fools in Denver (Jake Plummer, indeed!)..If he didn't get picked up in the NFL after what he did last year to destroy Philly, HE WOULD HAVE TO PLAY in Ar.FL or CFL.

It's got nothing to do with affording him! If you have to play somewhere, YOU HAVE TO PLAY WHERE YOU can. How in the world can you say he's the best WR in Football!? Do the names Steve Smith (13TDs with Carolina), Rod Smith and Ashley Lelie (your boys from Denver, since Big Ed's retirement, two yrs ago), Chad Johnson or Cincinnati, Chris Chambers of Miami, Mushin Muhammad of Chicago, the three stud WR's in Arizona, and two from Seattle NOT MEAN anything to you?! You gotta be nuts to say Owens is the best WR in Football. Milt Stegall is better and Damien Harrell of the Ar.FL are better too! Look their stats up!

I could care less what League they play in. What about Mr. nine straight Pro Bowls, Marvin Harrison in Indy?! I would take ANY of the above mentioned guys over Terrell ANY DAY of the year. You gotta follow Footie more closely! All the guys above, in their respective Leagues (hell, I'd take NFL E brit Scott McCready over Owens!) have had better stats in the last year than Owens did two years ago. Wake Up, please." Moose

"Moose I'm still saying he is the Best after Randy Moss had a average year at the Raiders. Maybe he can go in and give the Dallas "Cowboy" Stars some good playoff advise? Remember he did Star in Super Bowl XXXIX for the Eagles after being out for many weeks with a ruined ankle so they should get him in the rooms for a motivational chat, what do you think? This is from NHL Hockey webWORLD on general viewing. For Moose's NHL Playoff team by team reports with my comments Click here

I need to edit the filming I did of TO at the Super Bowl Media Day for Mates Club TV. Seeing the Eagles lost I didn't do the edit, I only did the Patriots but I'm sure NFL mates would still enjoy watching and listening to TO talk at the Media Day in Jacksonville.

Wed March 22 06 From Moose "NFL Free Agents Update:
Cleveland and Washington in the lead! Washington has gone hog wild in getting Quantity, but will 'Coach' Dan Snyder's REAL Fantasy Football be enough to get ancient Joe Gibbs that second REAL Super Bowl ring (to go with the two strike shortened year ones)?! The Browns, in acquiring three time Super Bowl  WR Joe Jurivicious and the A'int's only Pro Bowl Player, Centre LeCharles Bentley, have shored up two vital needs.

Dallas release of trouble-making "Gimme-the-dam-Ball Keyshawn Johnson and replacing him with unwanted by 31 other NFL WR Terrell (Yessuh master Jones) Owens is like changing a tire when one needs an overhaul. If 'Big Tuna' and Jonesee were paying any attention, there's a pretty damn good WR named Damien Harrell tearing up the Arena League right now they could have gotten for one fifth the price!

From Moose "Paul Tagliabue – A Tribute!"

Paul Tagliabue has been a real blessing to the NFL for 16+ years and is stepping down at age 63. Paul started out as a NFL Lawyer that had to bail the NFL out in his predecessor, Corporate Facsist ‘Pete’ Rozelle’s stupid little war with the upstart USFL, circa 1986. The NFL lost all the battles, but won the war and the USFL more or less morphed into the Ar.FL (Jim Foster, Jr. in both Leagues). Mr. Tagliabue has presided over the NFL growing in size from 28 teams to now (including the 6 NFL ‘AAA’ Europe ones)  38. He signed a deal to merge with the Arena Football League, which has 44, if you include the Af2 ‘AAA’. but was undercut by two unscrupulous owners in Pittsburgh and Houston.

Former Houston Oilers Owner K.S ‘Bud’ Adams moved his team to Tennessee and it became the Titans recycling the old New York (now) Jets original nickname. It hasn’t been all roses for the Commish as he recently settled some particularly thorny player compensation / union issues in New York where he went to Law School. Mr. Tagliabue is from New Jersey, and while ‘Pete’ (not his real name) Rozelle will go down as the worst Commissioner in

NFL history, Tagliabue is the best! Some potential replacements include: Rich McKay, son of ex-Buccaneers Coach John McKay, who also Coached USC for many years and is currently Atlanta G.M., Roger Goodell, current League Chief Operating Officer and Jeff Pash, current Executive Vice Pres.

Mr. Tagliabue also did a good job with the NFL Europe Division, stabilizing the situation and before he left he made sure the League got Re-upped until 2011, when the current union-player contract expires. when Tagliabue first became Commissioner, the League was full of Dynasties and 13 teams hadn’t made the playoffs. Now only six haven’t made the playoffs. Aside from the horrid past Super Bowl XL and the continued Officiating problems, Mr. Tagliabue leaves the League in better shape than his weird predecessor!"

From Moose "Curt Gowdy, Announcer passed away two days ago at the age of 86. He was an outstanding announcer who called some of the biggest games in NFL-AFL / NCAA and US Olympic history. Gowdy, from the same town in the state of Wyoming that Edmonton Canadian QBing great Tom Wilkinson, who split the QB job with Warren Moon for four years, came from. Gowdy, who has a state park in Wyoming named after him, along with former Bulls and Lakers Ast. Coach Tex Winter, was very good NCAA basketball player in the 1940's. His Wyoming Cowboys won the Men's NCAA crown in 1942 with the point guard Gowdy winning M.V.P. honors. Since there was no Pro Basketball (the NBA started in 1946), Gowdy switched over to Announcing, first with the NCAA Football then the Yankees and Red Sox in MLB. 

Some of Gowdy, who retired in 1985 from NBC's biggest game on that network were: the fourth Super Bowl, which flopped in 1967, with 30,000+ empty seats in the L.A. Coliseum, the infamous 'Heidi Bowl', when NBA switched to that Walt Disney Co. story about the Joanna Spari novel about the sweet little red-haired freckled girl in the Alps, who lived with here grandfather, as the Oakland Raiders were in a pitched battle to make their second consecutive Super Bowl, leading the Jets of N.Y. by three points. With only two minutes remaining in the game, the Raiders seemed destined to win and make their second consecutive Super Bowl, tying Vince Lombardi's Packers. But Joe Namath, who would make mincemeat out of the Colts of the NFL in S.B. III, brought the Jets back to win a last second game, 27-23. The circuit board in New York blew out with 119,000+ angry calls from Football fans all over the U.S. demanding that NBC switch back to the game! But NBC couldn't do it fast enough. The next week Gowdy called the Jets / Colts Super Bowl III, where Namath and the Jets beat the over-the-hill Baltimore bunch, 16-7.

They still call this game, the most important Super Bowl ever, an upset, which I don't agree with. Gowdy went on to call Olympics, NCAA Football and Basketball Championships and other big games until his retirement in 1985. He was elected into the American Sports Broadcasting Hall-of-Fame in 1986. And later that year into the MLB Hall-of-Fame, it's first Announcer.

Rickey Williams - Four strikes your out? Rickey Williams, the Miami  Dolphins overrated RB, who had a few good games (and who is in India 'studying' the Hindu cult) has tested positive for either steroids/drugs for the fourth time in his speckled NFL career (can you say another first- round "bust"?) Will the watered down NFL sidestep this like they did the poor Officiating in  Super Bore XL, or will they throw this bum out for good?

Doug Flutie has two options when the New England Pats probably will cut him loose next month (Mar. 3rd he's a free agent again); go to play for Bernie and Loine in Ottawa in the CFL (w/ or without his brother Darren), or...go back to San Diego as a reserve QB and serve as Phil Rivers backup? There's a strong possibility Marty Schottenheimer will call for Doug, who still owns a home there to come for a tryout. Second or third string as of this point in his career will not matter to Flutieball, he says. He really wants more year as a player and it doesn't look like Ottawa will offer him more than $650,000 Canadian (as QB or drop-K'r?). The Pats will probably bring in either Jim Miller, Damon Huard or even Rohan Davey back as number #3 since they appear to be sold on current number 2 Matt (White)Cassel (as ESPN's Chris Berman calls him)...

Drew Brees appears done in San Diego is he recovered fine from bad wing surgery but won't be able to pass until May - the Chargers have to release him since Phil Rivers (& Doug Flutie?!) are ready to go healthy and the Bolts will have to pay him a whopping $10.2+/mil if he stays on their roster past Apr. 30th... This plays perfectly into the Jets hands...They are watering at the mouth to get their habds on bad-wing Brees (he's only had one shoulder surgery) because @* Chad Pennington has had three shoulder operations in four years and he won't take a pay cut. no way will the Jets pay Pennington $11.1/mil if they keep him past Apr. 30th. Brees is fine say the Docs in San Diego, as long as he doesn't pass until May. No work 'til then, which suits the Jersey Jets fine. Oh, Nineteen year vet Vinny Testeverde has officially retired. He holds several records including 19 consecutive yrs., NFL QB with at least one TD. Just ahead of Johnny Unitas (r.i.p), Fran Tarkenton and 47-year old former Seahawk great Dave Krieg." Moose
