We Are T-Minus 8 Days Away From The 2012 Senior Bowl!



Former Okla. State quarterback, Brandon Weeden, will be one of three QB's for the South squad in this year's Senior Bowl, which is held in Mobile, AL.

Weeden was a second team All-Big 12 selection in 2011 after leading his team to a 12-1 record, Fiesta Bowl victory and number three national ranking. The Manning Award finalist finished the year ranked in the top five in every major passing category, including second in passing yards (4,727), second in passing yards per game (363.6), third in total offense (355.8 ypg), third in completions per game (31.4) and fourth in touchdown passes (37).  He set the Oklahoma State single-season records for  passing yards, total offense (4,625 yds), attempts (564), completions (408) and touchdown passes. 
“It’s exciting. I’m excited about the opportunity to play against some of the best players in the country.  It’s a huge honor to get an invite and it’s a good quarterback class and I’m just happy to be a part of  the six,” Weeden said.
Weeden was 23-3 as a starter for the Cowboys and leaves Stillwater as the school’s all-time leader in passing yards (9,260), attempts (1,102), completions (766) and touchdown passes (75).  He also holds the school mark for most consecutive games with a touchdown pass (24) and passing yards in a game (502).  The 28-year old former professional baseball player totaled 16 career 300-yard passing games and seven 400-yard games. 


The 2012 Senior Bowl will feature a pair of NFL head coaches making their Senior Bowl head coaching debuts.  Mike Shanahan and the Washington Redskins staff will face Leslie Frazier and the Minnesota Vikings staff in the senior showcase event later this month, it was announced today.  Shanahan and his staff will lead the South squad in Mobile, while Frazier’s Vikings staff will coach the North. 


So, if you want to catch a glimpse of some of your favorite college players from the 2011-2012 season, make sure to catch the 2012 Senior Bowl. The Senior Bowl is set to kickoff at 3 p.m. CST on Saturday, January 28th at Mobile's Ladd-Peebles Stadium. The game will be shown on the NFL Network.

Here's hoping Michael Irving isn't calling the game.

If you would like more information, go to the 2012 Senior Bowl page here.

Congrats I say!




Congratulations to Mike Gundy! The OSU head football coach of won the Paul "Bear" Bryant College Coach of the Year Award. The guy got OSU football to its highest BCS ranking in school history. He turned that program around.

“It’s been an unbelievable season,” he said. “I don’t know that Oklahoma State’s ever been perceived the way we are now from coast to coast all through the country. I’m so proud of our team and the administration and coaches for getting to this level and continuing to work hard.”


Oklahoma State won its first Big 12 championship and played in its first BCS bowl, getting a 41-38 overtime win over Stanford. The team’s 12 wins were a school record.


Coach Gundy beat out Wisconsin’s Bret Bielema, Art Briles of Baylor, Michigan’s Brady Hoke, Stanford’s David Shaw, Kansas State’s Bill Snyder, former Houston and current Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin and Clemson’s Dabo Swinney.

Congrats again!

Once A Thug, Always A Thug. See Adam 'Pacman' Jones As An Example

One of many mug shots of Adam 'Pacman' Jones.

So, Adam 'Pacman' Jones has found his way back into the news. Hooray! (I'm being sarcastic.) The man has more arrests and is still an active NFL player. Thug - a brutal ruffian or assassin, Boy, does Jones fit that definition to a T.

Jones has a lenghty arrest warrent and I've picked out a few for your pleasure:

October 2003
JOnes was sentenced to one year in jail following a bar fight while attending WVU.

March 2006
Pacman gets charged for Mary Jane possession.

August 2006
Pacman is arrested for disorderly conduct and public intoxication.

2007
For his part in a strip club melee and shooting in Los Vegas that left one club employee partially paralyzed and two people wounded, Roger Goodell suspends Pacman for the entire 2007 NFL season.

July 2011
Bengals CB, Pacman Jones, was arrested for refusing to leave a bar.


Former Bengals RB, Stanley Wilson, was banned for life from the NFL in 1990 for alleged drug use. Pacman Jones has been suspended for two entire NFL seasons (2007 and 2009) and suspended for six games back in 2008. If someone who had a drug problem can be banned from the NFL, why is it that a player who has documented evidence of being ruthless off the field continues to get chances? I can tell you why; It's because the kid has talent and there are teams (Bengals, Cowboys and Titans) that have all taken a chance on him. But you'd think after arrest, after arrest, after arrest that someone would get it in their head about this "thug" and quit giving him chance after chance.

In a world where people are famous for doing bad things than good, it doesn't surprise me that Pacman Jones has been given chances. Everyone can chance, but there are those select few that have trouble follow them wherever they go. How many chances will Roger Goodell give him. Former NFL Commissioneer, Pete Rozell, had a zero-tolerance policy in place, but what can be said about Goodell? If he keeps allowing players like Pacman Jones to play in the NFL, then the "thug" stereotype will always be associated with the NFL, but I'm sure Roger Goodell can handle that sort of pressure.

Football Brat of the Day: Stephanie Turner

 So, to celebrate Norv Turner keeping his job in SD, I thought it would be nice to share some photos of his cute daughter, Stephanie. Enjoy!







and finally...

Big Z is heading to Miami




Big Carlos Zambrano -

You will always have a special place in my heart. When I got to go to my first Cubs vs. Cards series last season, do you know what jersey I picked to wear? It was yours, Z. Yes, it was the cheapest jersey online (I bought it for $0.99 from some company in Japan), but I wore that Blue uni with pride. I will miss watching your temper tantrums. I hope you enjoy working on your tan and you are able to persevere and finally get that World Series ring you have always wanted. When you do when that ring, you can mail it to me so I can wear it proudly for a day or two (and I will make sure to send it back in mint condition.) Thanks for the memories.


xoxo,
a beloved fan
