The crime was not doing anything when your buddy's start hurting somebody and they end up dead - I'm not sure how many people react well in that circumstance when it's their buddies, and his upbringing plays a HUGE role in that. Instead of focusing on the negative of something he really didn't do, but failed to react, take the positive. If he'd killed the person it would be a different story, and although I've heard some rumors to that effect, I've never seen any evidence of it. The Vick scenario is similar - a disgusting crime, but was a victim of the culture he was raised in. He did his time, and was able to come back a changed man and played some great football. Neither are perfect role models, but there is good to take from their stories.

This part is going to be interesting....lol

The Giants just released Ahmad Bradshaw...Jets sign this beast.


btw, when do we create the new thread for the year?...March? When the new year for the league officially starts?

[Erzengel]

It was a matter of time. Giants were like $4.7 million over the cap. With the release of Boley and Bradshaw, and I just read Canty. That's $3.1, $5.25 & $6.25

They have Brown and they have Wilson as RB, although I'd like to see them pick up another RB in the Draft.

They have to give contracts to Nicks and especially Cruz.

Wouldnt surprise me if they go after Eddy Lacy

Giants are 19th? I'm not much into NCAA barring the more popular players.

I did hear that the draft is strong with OL and DL players. Giants MO is always to take the best player on the board.

Whenever whats his name that won the poll makes it. Which I say, should be reasonably soon.

From what I hear, the Giants are fully confident in Wilson and Brown.

I'm hoping to Steelers grab Bradshaw. It's a long shot, but I don't think it's as long of a shot as some other free agents.

I'm hoping we draft:

Larry Warfold OG
Chance Warmack OG
Da'Rick Rogers WR
Cordarrelle Patterson WR
Brandon Williams DT
Kawaan Short DT
Robert Alford CB
Desmond Trufant CB
