.....to take Mike Ditka's approach?

Is the NHL guilty of being too prideful to admit that their players and alumni have serious health issues?

Here's the article I read:

NFL: Ditka wants action on head injuries

Associated Press

Mike Ditka has a message for the NFL and congressional leaders: More action, not studies.

On the eve of a congressional hearing on head injuries among NFL players, the Hall of Famer sent a loud-and-clear message toward Capitol Hill and the league during a news conference in Chicago yesterday to announce that his Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund is expanding its medical program.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith are scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee, along with former players and medical experts, and Ditka said he hoped they "come to a conclusion and quit financing these studies" so more ailing retirees can get the help they need.

Smith said the union has differences with the NFL over how to address head injuries suffered during pro football games, but they're not fighting about it.

Smith credited the NFL with doing a "tremendous job" to improve player safety in the last five years.

"This is not a battle between us and the league," Smith said.

In the past, Ditka has criticized the players' association for ignoring the medical needs of former players with serious injuries who can't afford to pay for their care. His stance has softened now that Smith is leading the union.


Is there any way to find out which referee (or officiating team) is scheduled to work a given NFL game in advance? The referee is often announced by the commentators at the beginning of the game, but I'm wondering if there is a list posted at the beginning of each week or at the beginning of the season.


Alabama has announced a home and home series with Michigan State.

Is Alabama playing the system knowing Michigan State is on the way down while they are on the way up?

Do you think the SEC will follow this new trend of playing real programs or still hide behind the Sun Belt and FCS?

Do you ever think an SEC team will play a fall snow game (you know real bang and crash NFL style game)?

P.S. Don't get me wrong here, I don't mind the SEC and I do realize that Michigan State is in no way a power program but still the implications of this could be huge.



be a littlemore specific on the date. i know they are coming out in April


I know the opponents have been announced, but when is the full schedule coming out?


I'm looking for actual schedule, not just opponents lists.





what date will the schedule for the nfl season be announced


I'm wondering when the awards are going to be announced for the year-end NFL awards, including league MVP, rookie of the year, coach of the year, and offensive and defensive players of the year. I'm sure there's a schedule for the releases, but I can't find them anywhere. Can someone answer and cite sources? Thanks.


The Patriots season might quickly go down the drain if they keep playing like this, the Patriots schedule is very easy but Matt Cassel is struggling. Who can blame him, this is the first time he has been a starter since pop warner football when he was probably 10 years old.

But back to the question, i heard a week ago on NFL Total Access there might have been a possible trade situation for A.J. Feeley from the Eagles. I havn't heard anything since, but im guessing it isn't going to happen because Bellicheck hasn't announced anything.

I really think the Patriots should maybe try and trade for a decent back up QB, they're are a few out there. Sage Rosenfels for example, plays well for the whole game just lacks in the 4th quarter. The Patriots are a much better team then the Texans(in my opinion) so i think the Pats would be able to help him out in areas he lacks. Also, Brady Quinn could be a good idea if they where willing to sacrafice something great for him if they BELIEVE he could get them to the play-offs. I know you guys think the world revolves around Brady, but i still think the Pats have a shot at the play-offs this year.

What do you guys think?
P.S.- A.J. Feeley i think is a good QB, he did almost beat us last year when we where undefeated.


The NFL plans to announce its full 2008 schedule Tuesday at 2 p.m. ET.

The planned announcement, confirmed by the league in a news release Monday, will reveal dates, times and television schedules. Teams have known their opponents for months, thanks to the NFL's scheduling formula





Does anyone know when the 2008 NFL schedule will come out? I know the opponents have been announced, but I'm looking for the actual schedule. And who else thinks it's ridiculous that the Pats will have THE easiest schedule in the league? Not kind of easy, or the second easiest, but THE easiest.

a�? Ted Dibase was once the Mid-South North American Heavyweight Champion.

a�? In many of his WrestleMania matches Randy Savage would foreshadow the result of his bout by the color hat he wore to the ring. Two examples: 1 when he wrestled the Ultimate Warrior at WMVII as a heel and left as a babyface, he entered the ring wearing a white hat. 2. when he defeated Ric Flair at WMVIII to take the WWF strap, he wore a gold costume.

a�? Hulk Hogan agreed to drop the world title to the Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania VI because he was planning on retiring and wanted to pass the torch on to his babyface successor so he wouldn't have to come back and get "revenge" on a heel for his fans.*Hogan forced McMahon to give him the strap at the end of WMIX by threatening to no-show his tag earlier on the show with Brutus Beefcake against IRS & Ted Dibiase.

a�? Apparently feeling he had nothing to lose, Sid Justice doublecrossed Vince McMahon by kicking out of Hogan's legdrop at WMVIII.

a�? McMahon wanted a Flair-Hogan main event for WMVIII, but before Flair surprisingly was unable to re-up on a contract with WCW, McMahon signed Sid with the promise he would wrestle Hogan at the next WM. So, McMahon went with a double main event of Hogan-Sid and Flair-Savage.

a�? Prior to WMX, McMahon had Lex Luger come out with the world belt for a television taping, scheduled to air after the pay-per-view. Either planning a swerve all along or changing his mind after word got out, McMahon had Bret Hart win the three-way tournament between Hart, Luger and Yokozuna.

a�? When Shawn Michaels was attacked outside of a nightclub by approximately 10 "thugs" (actually it was by a marine group), Shawn was accompanied by Davey Boy Smith and Sean Waltman (1-2-3 Kid). Shawn tried to be the brave one and he ended up suffering for it.

a�? The WWF says that the Dynamite Kid left the WWF and retired because of an injury. Actually, the Kid still wrestles in England and the real reason he left was because of a locker room fight with him and Jacques Rougeau. The Bulldog opted to keep contact with the WWF and because of that and other reasons, the Bulldog and the Dynamite Kid haven't spoken in years.

a�? On May 11, 1987, Kevin Von Erich collapsed in the middle of the ring during an eight-man bout pitting him, The Fantastics, and Bruiser Brody against Brian Adias, Black Bart, Al Madril, and Al Perez. Fantastic Tommy Rogers, seeing Von Erich turning blue, administers cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

a�? Bam Bam Bigelow was chosen as the opponent for Lawrence Taylor at WMXI because he was the WWF's best big man worker. Bigelow says that as payment for doing the job he was promised a big babyface push down the road.

Neidhart had been fired and was filling contractual obligations, which including jobbing the tag titles to another team. In what should have been a minor point, the top rope broke at one point during the match. The Rockers defended the titles for a week after that, but then Neidhart was re-hired by the WWF, and Vince McMahon decided that the title change never actually happened, in one of the goofier decisions of the 90s, and one of many to affect the careers of Shawn and Bret. As an explanation, a story was sent to Pro Wrestling Illustrated about the rope break causing an "unfair working environment" for both teams, and hence the title reign was annulled. This was simply to cover up for the fact that they reported the title change as fact a week prior and needed a reason to no longer report it as such. The title change was edited out of the Main Event broadcast, and thus went down in history that the Rockers never had the belt.

a�? From 1986-1989 Ric Flair averaged 34 minutes per-match. In that span he had 19 matches that lasted longer than 50 minutes. a�? The Rock's wife Dany is the Associate Vice President of Merrill Lynch.

a�? In 1991, Ric Flair was fired/quit WCW. He showed up in the WWF soon thereafter holding the WCW title and claimed to be the "Real World's champion."

Do you know when the Vikings and/or NFL schedule for 08-09 will be announced?


NEW YORK (AP) -- After weeks of insisting they wouldn't cave in, NFL officials did just that Wednesday. Now all of America can see the Patriots' shot at history.

Saturday night's game between New England and the New York Giants on the NFL Network, which is available in fewer than 40 percent of the nation's homes with TVs, will be simulcast on CBS and NBC.

The Patriots could become the first NFL team to go 16-0 in the regular season.

"We have taken this extraordinary step because it is in the best interest of our fans," commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement after the league announced it was reversing course. "What we have seen for the past year is a very strong consumer demand for NFL Network. We appreciate CBS and NBC delivering the NFL Network telecast on Saturday night to the broad audience that deserves to see this potentially historic game. Our commitment to the NFL Network is stronger than ever."

NFL Network spokesman Seth Palansky said officials would have no further comment Wednesday.

The NFL had claimed that the onus of making the game widely available fell on the major cable providers with which the league has bitterly feuded. Companies such as Comcast and Time Warner have declined to carry the network as part of basic packages.

But lawmakers have pressured the NFL to ensure more viewers could see the game. Last week, two prominent members of the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Goodell threatening to reconsider the league's antitrust exemption.

Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who co-wrote the letter with Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said he was "delighted" by the NFL's concession.

"I think it was a smart move on their part," he said in a phone interview.

Leahy expected to speak with Goodell again next month about the ongoing question of how many fans will be able to see games on the channel. Saturday's matchup wraps up the NFL Network's second season of airing live contests, with eight per year. This one and a key Thursday night game between Green Bay and Dallas last month drew widespread complaints about the lack of availability.

"I never completely gave up hope, but I was getting a little discouraged Christmas afternoon when we still had not gotten a positive answer," said Leahy, who added that his staff members were talking with NFL officials during the holiday.

Local TV affiliates in the Boston, Manchester, N.H., and New York areas that were already set to simulcast the game under NFL policy will still air it. That means viewers in those markets will have four channels to choose from if they get NFL Network.

That did not make officials at WWOR in New York happy.

"The NFL is in clear violation of their agreement with WWOR/My9," the station said in a statement. "We fully expect the league to honor their commitment to My9 as the exclusive free over-the-air broadcaster for Saturday's telecast of the New England Patriots at New York Giants game."

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., who had urged cable and NFL executives to settle the dispute, had a much more positive reaction to the league's announcement.

"I couldn't be more thrilled that as the Patriots rush toward an historic undefeated season, football fans everywhere have won a victory of their own," Kerry said. "With today's announcement, the NFL showed their loyalty to the sports fans who made the NFL an empire in the first place.

"The best news of all is that now no die-hard Pats fans will be shut out from watching their team take aim at football history," Kerry said in a statement.

This will be the first three-network simulcast in NFL history and the first simulcast of an NFL game since the inaugural Super Bowl in 1967, when CBS and NBC televised the meeting of the champions of the newly merged National Football League and American Football League.

"We're happy to accommodate the NFL's request for a joint national simulcast of this potentially historic game to make it available to the widest possible audience," said Dick Ebersol, NBC Universal's chairman for sports and Olympics.

NBC was scheduled to air "Dateline NBC" and a repeat of "Law & Order: SVU" during the time slot. CBS was set to broadcast the movie "Good Night, and Good Luck" and "48 Hours: Mysteries."



I'm a dolphin fan...


We have the Dolphins v. Giants in London coming along the schedule in a few weeks...and a rumor has surfaced that the NFL is about to announce a Canadian city will be hosting a regular season game in either 2008 or 2009.

Assuming this rumor is true, which Canadian city should it be?
BTW...three Canadian cities have hosted pre season games...Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver...and this recent rumor includes that Bob Kraft's private plane was recently in Edmonton (Pat Bowlen's home town).









(Not the home-and-away opponents; the actual game dates)
