I like Lane, he'll land on his feet.

Meanwhile the Bengals signed Cedric Benson. LOL

Al Davis could quite possibly be the scariest looking human alive (or not alive?).

That press conference would make a good Romero film.

Pretty sure Al Davis died in 1992. They're just keeping him on display a la Lenin.

I hate that I actually like the Cedric Benson signing. I mean, fuck it, what do we have to lose.

Al Davis might be the worst owner in all of sports. Yes, even worse than Huizenga.

Well at least the Bengals have finally learned to stop signing players that have character issues.

I don't know how Huizenga is a bad owner. He's very hands off with the Fins and will give the coach any and all resources he requires. He's also improved Dolphins Stadium with his own cash. I see nothing wrong with his ownership of the Fins.

That organization has had the worst front office for the last ten years. The draft picks and transactions have been atrocious. They haven't had a franchise QB in almost a decade. At least he has mitigated that with the Parcells signing, which should revive this franchise in the next couple years.

A lot of that all started when he trusted Jimmy to annoint Wanny as the next in command. I know a lot of his hires have backfired, but did you honestly think he expected Saban to dip out in the middle of his second season to head back to college football for less money? I can't fault the guy for what he did. He made some mistakes, but calling him a bad owner is something I reserve for jackasses like Al Davis, Mike Brown, etc. Hell, at least we've won playoff games this decade unlike the Cowboys or something.

He wasn't even charged. Of course, everyone arrested is guilty.

Carolina is playing on CBS this weekend and the Buccaneers play a nationally significant game with Denver and yet I get mother fucking Bears @ Lions for my game.

I think I'm going to have to go somewhere and watch it.
