To be fair I have nothing against Peterson raising his son the same way he was - with physical punishment. I get that the law says he can't, but he was raised in a certain environment and believes that a similar one is the only way he can help his son get similar success.
I feel like the Vikings just picked this German dude to make it a feel-good story to get media hype. I honestly see this as another Jarryd Hayne story but I hope I'm wrong. If the kid can ball, that's awesome but there's no way he's going to be used much at all. He's probably just a practice squad player.
I think they picked him more as a long-term project and because the team's WRs as a whole are bad enough that they'll take a chance on anyone. Also with Cordarelle definitely not being renewed after 2016, someone's got to be ready to fill in for him. The media honed in on that story on their own.
I renewed the SmogonBomb fantasy football league from last year. Not sure which league (A? B? C?) it is, but when I renewed it Yahoo automatically renewed every other team. Not sure how to go about fixing this, as there will most certainly be at least 1 or 2 people who don't want to/can't/shouldn't continue being in the league.
you can remove teams manually. I usually give a deadline for returning teams to register by, several reminders, and then removal if they fail to join in time. Also, if you had any teams who went inactive last year or otherwise dicked around, they should be removed as well and me notified so I can blacklist them
It appears that the Ravens may have committed a rather serious rule violation during their OTAs.
I hope and expect that the NFL will investigate this issue with the unparalleled zeal and transparency that they are known for.
The integrity of the game is paramount after all.

Oh no, I feel terrible for all our opponents who were affected by this violation.
-When you think Tom Brady's guilty because you believe a report done by the NFL
Tom Brady should fight Deflategate till the end of time. If for no reason other than to make the idiots that think hes guilty to pull their heads out of their asses and actually read up on the facts of the case.

aaaand it begins. Once again, bye ravens receivers!
I kid you not, I had a premonition this would happen a few days ago. Would be nice if the same thing happened with a sb win...
Why would you want your SB win to tear its acl :( :(
I don't understand why Nate Robinson would pursue his NFL dream and work out for the....Seattle Seahawks...as a defensive back. Of all the teams to try out for, maybe choose one you actually have a shot(intentional basketball pun) of making the roster. He has talent and athleticism but he hasn't played football since high school and he's in his 30's now. I just think it's something for the media to cover in this dry offseason(post-draft that is)
Bumping because Brady's appeal for a re-hearing officially got denied. That, and some of the other things that have been going on (Crowell's picture, etc) have kinda put the NFL back at the front of the sports world for a little bit.
Orrrrrrr a United States legal court kept him suspended
there's that too
there's that too
