Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

Five stories I am already tired of

NFL teams begin opening their training camps in the next few days. Yet, even though the season has not officially started I am sure there are a bunch of stories you are already sick of hearing about.

Here is my top five.

  1. Brett Favre -- Will he or won't he? Yeah, he will. And I just don't care.
  2. Giants' wide receivers -- Unfortunately, we are going to hear something about this every week -- maybe even every day -- all season long.
  3. Plaxico Burress -- Happily, he is not the Giants' problem any longer. That, however, doesn't mean he won't make plenty of headlines.
  4. Michael Vick -- Will he get reinstated by the NFL? Sure he will, I don't think there is much doubt? Will someone take a chance on him? Sure. Will he be any good? He never was, except for when he was running around. So, why should that change now?
  5. Tom Brady -- I do believe ESPN thinks Brady is the first player in NFL history to have ever gotten hurt.

The most amazing thing about this whole list, to me, is that Terrell Owens isn't on it. Maybe that's because he's in Buffalo, and nobody cares.

Feel free to share your own lists.

Re: #5

They way they report it, I thought Brady was the first player in NFL history. Period.

How can you not love a team that does this?

Vick

If no one picks his up as a possible starting QB (doubtful though), then he sure would be a nice weapon to have as a role player (i.e. wildcat).

Anyway, I agree with that list for the most part. I do think they’d be talking about Brady nonstop even without the injury though. They love him and admittedly he’s probably the biggest star in the NFL right now.

You’ll probably be able to Big Ben to that list pretty soon.

Brett Favre... don't think he will... and I do care

Because I think the Vikings with Favre are more dangerous, and will probably take the division. I’d rather the Giants not meet up with them in the playoffs with Favre. That O-line will give him time, and he’s got the best running back in football behind him. He didn’t know anything about the Jets offense and he stepped in there and made them a winner, and for a while there until he got hurt was a threat to take them deep into the playoffs. He knows the Vikes offense, and he knows the division’s defenses. With him under center, the big story midway through this season will be can anybody in the NFC stop the Vikings…

I don't know about that

the Vikings are better than the Jets, that’s a fact.

Farve mights still have something left in the tank, but he’s very capable of throwing boneheaded picks to lose the game for you.

Id LOVE to face Farve’s again in the playoffs. Just so Webster can get the final pick off him again.

All I agree with.

It’s not like there were in any lies here.

Anyone who thinks that

Is either overestimating the loss of leadership or underestimating a very good Eagles D.

sheer torture!

farve still not give any clear anwser to his replay. It’s time to retire, anyways. Just the saying goes, “Time make it inevitable that in every profession, young men replace the old.” That’s it.
