I believe he is working under a name with a couple of 4s in it, but the post was Crayonz inspired, so I'll accept the compliment.

The similarities between the two are eerie. For example: Both Kolb and Fitz are 4-letters long. Kolb played for Arizona, Fitz lived in Arizona. Fitz's nickname is "The Amish Rifle," Kolb once bought a rifle from the Amish. Kolb killed a boar by stabbing it in the heart (true story) while Fitz bored the heart out of Bills' fans for the past 2 years. Fitz was a 7th rd pick, Kolb once threw 7 picks in one game (may or may not be true). Both men have spouses named after singing stars - Liza for Fitz, Whitney for Kolb. Fitz went to Harvard, an ivy league school, as a child, Kolb had ivy growing on his school. It is clear that Fitz=Kolb and Kolb=Fitz. Spooky...

Interesting article on Woodson's plight. What age do you think is too old to give a guy a shot? Obviously, I speak of skill positions like CB, WR, etc. I understand that kickers and punters regularly play to a much older age than other positions. http://espn.go.com/b...to-stay-patient

Good guards can be found in the middle to late rounds or even as UDFAs. Taking Chance (or Cooper) at 8 is a waste of a high pick. Top 10 player should be an impact player at an impact position.

My youngest son is autistic. I saw this video yesterday and we watched it together. Can't express how much kids like Ethan mean to me. (Got to meet J-Mac last year, too. What a great kid.)

Loved Roger. RIP - Keep the aisle seat open for me.

Roy Clark playing "Malaguena" on the old Odd Couple show. How did he possibly do that without breaking a string on his Martin guitar?

Here's a much higher-quality version of that video (HD has spoiled my eyes). Love the move where he leans into the crowd and is held up by a roadie while soloing. Is Dani Harrison a near-clone of George, or what?

When I saw the headline "interesting tweet," I thought he was teasing the changing of his jersey number/

Never heard of him. Get 'er done!

No anger - Just can't imagine an aging vet that has had no FA suitors "joking" about being resigned to his old team and including the name of the GM. I think it was an ill-advised tweet.

pffffttttt...The sound of the last of credibility being released from Nick Barnett's NFL career.

If the tweet is actually from his account then it has to be legit. There's no way Nick would joke about something like that with his NFL career hanging in the balance. I don't think the Bills or any other NFL team would see the humor.

I know this is from '67, but I hope no one will complain.

As a Frank only who has often been called Franklin or Francis - thanks!

I think that playing in the Arena League surely qualifies one as a journeyman pro.

Read about this in the Buffalo News today and went to check out the video. Ray Collins, former Buffalo Newscaster and St. Bonaventure tennis player, was invited to play one point in a celebrity tennis foursome in Florida. He was paired with Andy Murray and they played against Men's #1 Novak Djokovic and women's top player, Anna Ivanovic. They got a great rally going with much net play and Collins ended it with a great behind-the-back shot that caught Djokovic flat-footed. Pretty cool to be able to say you schooled the world's #1 player, don't you think?

That's really wonderful - thanks for posting!

I thought this was interesting: Soccer player retired after coming out because he said it would have been "impossible" to be a pro footballer and be openly gay. Hope that doesn't happen to whatever NFL player(s) come out. http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1391576/robbie-rogers:-coming-out-in-football-'impossible,%22-report-says?cc=5901

I really feel bad for turning you on to that dreck, Tom. Here's an amazing duo using unconventional rock instruments to recreate a classic that I hope will help make Ms. Black's screeching fade just a bit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-5XOCMpUwA

It's a traditional Korean 12-string instrument, but her playing style is very non-traditional and transcendent. Jimi would have loved it. Prepare to have a big smile on your face..

Fixed - thanks for the catch. As a writer, mistakes like that drive me crazy, too.

"A new attitude of excellence." (hey, I'm an optimist.)

I started the thread in hopes that it would show that fans have no issue with sexuality and it certainly looks like they don't, which is a great statement on the progress we've made in just a couple of short decades in this country. I do think that this person is going to have a more difficult time of it then some of you may imagine. After all, the NFL did just have to chastise its own teams for illegally asking some draft eligible players is they were gay. I also wonder if some teammates might refuse to shower with the guy due to the pseudo-macho climate of the locker room. I guess the question I should have asked is: Considering that it's estimated that 10% of the overall population is gay, do you think this man's courage will lead to the other 160 or so gay NFL players to come out? Would be an empowering move for many if they did. (Just read above where there are stats saying the number is just 2% - whatever the numbers, I still hope all players can feel free to be who they are).
