Everything said earlier still applies... ________________ We're hearing that either later today or tomorrow T.J. Houshmandzadeh will announce a free agent contract agreement with the Seattle Seahawks or the http://www.footblog.com/tj-houshmandzadeh-signs-with-seahawks-championship-in-seattle-028847.php http://www.footblog.com/tj-houshmandzadeh-signs-with-seahawks-championship-in-seattle-028847.php Mon, 02 Mar 2009 21:45:28 -0500 It's looking more and more likely that Terrell Owens won't be in a Dallas Cowboys uniform when the 2009 season begins. Jerry Jones' son, Stephen Jones is lobbying hard for an Owens release or trade and while there is still a base of support for Owens within the Cowboys http://www.footblog.com/terrell-owens-other-mans-trash-is-al-davis-treasure-028701.php http://www.footblog.com/terrell-owens-other-mans-trash-is-al-davis-treasure-028701.php Thu, 12 Feb 2009 09:00:22 -0500 It was a tough loss for Kurt Warner who came within a sniff of winning his 2nd Super Bowl ring. But now that the Super Bowl is over and the offseason (is there still such a thing?) has begun, Kurt Warner is officially a free agent. While he continues http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-kurt-warner-wants-18-million-contract-extension-from-cardinals-028605.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-kurt-warner-wants-18-million-contract-extension-from-cardinals-028605.php Sun, 01 Feb 2009 23:45:30 -0500 For all of the talk about New England's dynasty and almost-perfect season, or the Dallas Cowboys carrying the much-hyped America's Team moniker, the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to fly under the radar as the most prolific professional football franchise. Maybe they don't look pretty doing it, or maybe their black-and-yellow http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-santonio-holmes-toedances-his-way-to-mvp-028604.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-santonio-holmes-toedances-his-way-to-mvp-028604.php Sun, 01 Feb 2009 23:15:12 -0500 Pat Tillman was a great football player. An Arizona icon, he played for the Arizona State Sun Devils and then was drafted by the Cardinals in 1998, making a name as a hard-hitting competitor on the field and a great guy off--even turning down a contract offer to the http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-cardinals-have-tillman-on-their-mind-028569.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-cardinals-have-tillman-on-their-mind-028569.php Wed, 28 Jan 2009 22:02:56 -0500 We all know that betting for the Super Bowl usually gets pretty crazy, and with "The Boss" Bruce Springsteen leading the halftime show, there are of course bets that are going on with that, from what song order he has all the way to whether himself or his wife http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-betting-on-the-boss-bruce-springsteen-028568.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-betting-on-the-boss-bruce-springsteen-028568.php Wed, 28 Jan 2009 21:55:05 -0500 Yep, you read it right. As crazy as Media day is, it continues to turn more "PT Barnum" like every year. This year, players like Gabe Watson of the Arizona Cardinals got to learn moves from Salsa dancer Renee Sapp, including "a dip". While some looked like they could http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-salsa-dancing-with-the-arizona-cardinals-028562.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-salsa-dancing-with-the-arizona-cardinals-028562.php Wed, 28 Jan 2009 15:30:51 -0500 Someone just asked Mike Tomlin how he felt about being the youngest to coach in a Super Bowl...

How else to explain this look? We love Jeff Reed here at Footblog. If we could hang with just a few NFL players, he'd be one of them. Anyone smart enough to convince his organization/boss that his 'future http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-jeff-reed-drunk-on-media-day-028556.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-jeff-reed-drunk-on-media-day-028556.php Wed, 28 Jan 2009 07:57:25 -0500 The sky is falling in the financial world, as Wall Street fumbles, new president Barack Obama is looking at a trillion dollar stimulus for the public, and job losses continue to pile up. But despite all of these horrible things going on in the United States, the Super Bowl http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-ads-still-bringing-in-the-dough-028552.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-ads-still-bringing-in-the-dough-028552.php Tue, 27 Jan 2009 23:08:02 -0500 Ok, so maybe that's a bit on the hype side, because there have really been some lopsided match ups even going into the game, and this one really overall does not give that much of an edge to one team. But when you talk historically, this really is a http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-a-true-david-vs-goliath-match-up-028549.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-a-true-david-vs-goliath-match-up-028549.php Tue, 27 Jan 2009 22:46:46 -0500 Move over Eli. See ya Peyton. No VIP tickets for Archie, either. For all of the talk about the Mannings being the Golden Boys of the NFL, it's Ben Roethlisberger who will be playing for his 2nd Super Bowl ring on Sunday. Let's not forget that when the 2009 http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-golden-ben-roethlisberger-poses-on-media-day-028546.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-golden-ben-roethlisberger-poses-on-media-day-028546.php Tue, 27 Jan 2009 22:04:57 -0500 Everybody is a star during Super Bowl Media Day. I'm serious, everybody. Even Cardinals nose tackle Alan Branch who probably hasn't had this many cameras in his face since his birth, is a star. He's holding up the trophy he won during an Entertainment Tonight dance contest. Yes, a http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-everybody-is-a-star-on-media-day-028545.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-everybody-is-a-star-on-media-day-028545.php Tue, 27 Jan 2009 21:48:29 -0500 Caption: 'You wanna talk about my contract? Contract? What contract? I have one game left on my contract, that's all I know.' The Super Bowl may be the biggest betting day of the year, but Kurt Warner's bet was made early in the season. In the final year of http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-kurt-warners-contract-poker-028543.php http://www.footblog.com/super-bowl-xliii-kurt-warners-contract-poker-028543.php Tue, 27 Jan 2009 21:14:42 -0500 Is there ever "really" a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time? In Charles Grant's case, he is certainly hoping that a jury believes so. Grant, a defensive end for the New Orleans Saints, was at a club in February when a fight broke out, http://www.footblog.com/grant-enters-not-guilty-plea-020320.php http://www.footblog.com/grant-enters-not-guilty-plea-020320.php Mon, 26 May 2008 21:16:33 -0500
