I'll never grow tired of these comparisons.
- Uh oh, Roger Goodell is once again preaching about the 18-game regular season, this time claiming that it is “attractive to season ticket holders.” With that statement, the commissioner once again proves that his mindset is too financially driven for him to properly connect with fans.
- The latest on Peyton Manning’s contract situation, which technically sits stagnant until a labor deal is reached but is nonetheless discussed on about a weekly basis.
- Here’s an interesting look at Vince Lombardi’s grave site and the efforts being made to maintain it, mainly so that we can continue to say “Vince Lombardi is turning over in his grave” every time a modern-day NFL player cusses at his coach.
- The guys from Total Packers have a unique take on the Vikings’ decision to simplify the verbiage in their offense. Obviously, this is somewhat NSFW.

- According to Hogs Haven readers, T.J. Duckett is the worst Redskins running back of all time.
- Joe Fortenbaugh of the National Football Post has been reading our blog.
- A look at how Donnie Avery might fit in with the Rams in 2011.
- Joe Starkey of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review thinks James Harrison should quit complaining. Don’t hold your breath, Joe. (Also on Harrison: heavy criticism from Ron Cook of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette … a lot of hyphens in those Pittsburgh-based newspapers.)
- From Blogging The Boys: How much longer will the Cowboys’ nucleus wear the star?
- Has anyone ever made an Anne Frank analogy that didn’t “cause a stir“? Gary Myers and others go in on Tiki.
- Jason Babin has killed a bear, giving the Titans’ marketing team an unbelievable promotion opportunity for when Chicago comes to town in 2012. Anddddd evidence…
