It's always tough to feel good after a loss, no matter the circumstance. Ordinarily I'm not too happy after a loss to the Falcons. In fact I might be downright livid. But this is different. We weren't supposed to win this game...
One of America's most beloved video games "Madden" first entered our homes with the debut of John Madden Football in 1989. For about a decade, Madden himself graced the cover of each game...

Let me start off by saying this. No, Michael Vick is not a starting quarterback in the league. Let's be realistic here. His passing numbers weren't exactly prolific in his days with the Falcons, and a two-year hiatus isn't going to help matters...
Let's be honest—John Fox is not the type of coach that will dazzle viewers and fans with offensive genius. His teams won't light up the scoreboard or set the league on fire, but they'll get the job done...
This is one of those articles that I hate having to write. It's always tough to say goodbye to someone who touched so many people, but McNair was one of those players who deserves to be remembered...
Often times, while watching a game, I will see a catch, or juke, or pass that will leave me speechless. Now lately it has become clear that NFL players can be all too human, but everynow and again I wonder...

The 60's Packers, the 70's Steelers, the 80's 49ers, the 90's Cowboys, and the 2000's Patriots. Those are the NFL's dynasties. These are the teams that won several championships over a specific range of time, and did so consistently...

Well, it's that time of year. The time when we all start filling out brackets and hoping that finally our Cinderella will come through for us. It's the time when we balance our time between work and checking the scores on ESPN...
