Why is the league investigating an incident between two coaches?  I guess I understand the cops getting involved if it could be an assault case but the league should leave it alone, IMO.

Wouldn't the league investigate a fight between two players that landed one in the hospital if it was believed that the team wouldn't do anything about it?

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The new Commish is aggressive with behavior issues.  I'm sure he'd get involved if Al Davis punched Jerry Jones.

Probably, but just because you can, doesn't mean you should.  Also for some reason it feels different to me when it is 2 coaches instead of 2 players, can't quite pinpoint why though.

I bet he would; do you think he would get involved when Jerreh beat Al to death with his own motorized scooter though?

I doubt it providing nothing illegal occurred and/or no charges were pressed.

I don't remember the league issuing any statements when Steve Smith attacked Ken Lucas and broke his orbital socket (or when he broke Bright's nose several years earlier) in training camp.

Nor when Romanowski broke a teammate's face, as mentioned in the article.

I see the Ravens picked up Nader Abdallah. Good to see Ohio State folks end up somewhere. If he lasts there.

That's a tough team to make it on as a D lineman, what with Ngata, Gregg, Pryce, McKinney, Bannan and Edwards.  If he lasts, it'll be because he can play on the end.

Only seven minutes to the start of the LFFL draft.  One that will result in my victory.

Can't seem to connect to the live draft.  Trickery by you Neil?

What kind of name is Neil by the way?  Really don't like it.

It's a hollow victory without my participation. It makes you the Tommy Maddox of Languish. Sure you can win the Championship and be the MVP but it's only the XFL.

The team suspended Smith didn't it?

Taglibue was in charge for the 2nd.

I'm surely it would vary from team to team as a PR thing, and lets face it do we think raiders fans really care?

I couldn't get into it either. It would just load and load and load. <_<
