But Leonard needed a final round of SAT scores to qualify academically. By the time the passing test score arrived two weeks after national signing day, Clemson's scholarship offer was gone. The school offered Leonard priority walk-on status instead.

He turned that down and took the only scholarship offer on the table: from South Carolina State, a much smaller FCS school.

It's a long article, but it's pretty good.

And has an FCS connection.

Broncos season

They played a good game against the Chiefs...
actually both times they played them



If they had any offense at all they would be dangerous
But they don't really

NFL Quote of the week:

“Aaron was hot,” one Packers coach said. “And he had a right to be. He yelled, ‘Take a fucking knee!’ He was very, very mad.”

Browns finally fire their head coach and OC.

Glad to see Marlon Mack from USF playing well.

BTW:
The Packers had two weeks to scheme up a game plan against the RAMS
two weeks to get healthy during their by-week

Two weeks to do nothing but study the RAMS

and they still lost...
How good are the RAMS - because that was a trap game for them and they still did enough to win

There's always an 8-0 or 7-1 team at the midpoint that everyone is goo goo gah gah about. This year we have two of them. We'll see how they finish. Check back in two months.

Okay, will do...
BTW that NFC wild card game is going to be a hell of a game

I'm dead serious. I remember in 2004, the Eagles were something like 7-0 or 7-1 and the press was fawning over them. They promptly went to Pittsburgh and got their asses handed to them. It's an unpredictable, humbling league of professionals.

Never believe the hype in the NFL. Even Brady and Belichick can be beaten by a crappy NFC East team in the Super Bowl (three times in fact), when they're not allowed to roll tape on the other team's signals.

Yup, the Patriots have won two Super Bowls that weren't tainted with them being proved as cheaters in them - the won where they beat the Seahawks (after Pete Carroll decided it was too easy to score the winning touchdown by handing it off to Marshawn) and the Falcons (where Matt Ryan and the rest of the team crapped their pants in epic style). Everything is possible once the cheating is taken off the table. Also good to see that the AFC might be getting a little competitive again - the NFC is a crap shoot, never know who's going to come out of it. AFC has been boring lately, not nearly enough depth.

Yep. Love the way he plays.

Still the best post-Super Bowl meme ever:

I think the Pats made up Deflate Gate (seriously, it looked set up - they probably gave a stop watch to the guy carrying the balls to make sure he spent enough time in the bathroom) just to take the focus away from the real cheating that happened in Spygate (they needed something else that could end in gate as well). The NFL destroyed those tapes pretty fast in Spygate once they saw what was on them.

I think the Patriots were letting air out of footballs
to get them near the bottom of the minimum inflation standard
But it's hard to do accurately with a cheap pressure gauge...

The NFL didn't want to go too far down the rabbit hole
because Green Bay and Denver were also in a similar "ball modifying investigations"
Denver had already been caught with suspiciously over inflated kicking balls the year previously
as well as Green Bay complaining that by the 4th quarter all their balls were too low
so they were tinkering with having them delivered at higher PSI



and I think the Patriots still have "coaches" (and I use that word for lack of another)
on their sidelines watching the plays come in for hand signals or whatever they can pick up

I think the Patriots will take anything you give them... plus more if you're lazy or stupid
and your outrage and sanctimonious indignation is awesome

Golden Tate traded to the Philadelphia Eagles, for 2019 3rd Rd pick.

He's a game changer..!!
un-coverable little dude was the best wide out on the market

Should be a nice complement to Jeffery. Alshon has phenomenal hands but isn't a YAC monster like Tate.

By week for Eagles...
He has time to learn some plays (huge plus)



Plus Tate is as bitter as a sip of warm cat piss in the best way possible
He's a fighter, hates to lose and thinks he's the man to beat on every snap

The Seahawks had to let him go because he was fucking Russell Wilson's finace'
otherwise he'd still be a Seahawk

Ty Montgomery traded to Ravens. Should have take a ***** knee.
