Redskins: Scouting Punters for the 2009 Draft

Now that the Redskins are looking forward to the 2009 draft, Hogs Haven thought it would be beneficial to help out the Redskins' Front Office in scouting this year's punters. Since punters qualify for 6th round picks, it only makes sense we do our homework. Cerrato publicly stated there is a 0%...

Half Hearted Wins Count Too

The opponent tonight was one of the worst teams in the league and the Celtics mostly played down to the competition. It was a sloppy, half hearted effort, which turned out to be enough. The Thunder (that still seems odd) came out strong and pumped up in the first quarter. Once the Celtics...

Durant Signs With Nike

Sports Business Radio is reporting that Kevin Durant has signed with Nike, though the terms of the deal remain unknown. There was some thought that Durant would go with Adidas, as they were initially offering more money, but Durant's family ties with Nike appear to have won the day.More details on...

Morning Coffee Is Not Hot

The Oden-Durant draft chatter is heating up, but I find myself unexpectedly disinterested. Since the only drama involves whether Durant goes one or two, the only fans who should be tense about this thing are Trailblazer supporters.Speaking of which, the 'Blazers official website is polling readers...

Morning Coffee Can't Bench Sh-t, Either

Orangebloods.com's Geoff Ketchum lists five Longhorn football players flying under the radar ($) who you should know about: Buck Burnette, Billy Pittman, Peter Ullman, Erick Jackson, and Tweedle Dee Ryan Palmer.The list is rather ad hoc, but I don't necessarily disagree with any of Geoff's...

Morning Coffee

Let's start with a little Durant lovin', as we continue the process of trying to let go of our '06 hero. The fine folks at 40 Acre Sports invited me to particpate in their "Kevin Durant Mock Draft," in which seven of us took turns drafting KD to our city of choice. I drew the second spot in the...

Morning Coffee

As noted yesterday, Vince Young will grace the EA Sports "Madden 2008" video game cover. VY appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night to talk about it. (I didn't see it, so if anyone did, chime in below.) However, that wasn't the only VY news I came across yesterday. Gossip site Media Take Out...

We Never Had A Chance

When this is what they're saying about you... well, you don't go back for a sophomore season.One more year?Um, no.Good luck, Kevin.--PB--

Texas Fan Or Not. . . What We Learned From Durant Applies To Us All

I've noted several times over that I'm not a writer who spends much of his time chatting with sources, getting inside scoops on everything that happens in Texas athletics. Yet, as I noted on Monday when I filed my story on what I'd learned about the Durant Decision, I did dig deep in this case...

Kevin Durant Press Conference Open Thread

In one hour (4:00 p.m. CT), Kevin Durant will announce his intentions for next year. It's all but certain he will announce his departure for the professional ranks, but I'm sure there are a few of you like me who will listen anyway, in case we get another Ricky Williams stunner.I'm not holding my...
