- The price for Pacman Jones is going up.
- This is scary -- Chargers linebacker Merriman's prized Mercedes stolen, torched.
- The Chiefs won an award.
- Former Chief, current Eagle Kris Wilson said yesterday, "I think, at the tight end position, you have to be a jack of all trades. I think that I can mix it up and do a number of things on the field." That's the problem with Wilson. He's a jack of all trades and a master of none.
- A college offensive lineman in Florida died last night of natural causes in his home.
- The draft winds can change dramatically -- "NFL Network's Charlie Casserly is reporting that 18 of the 21 NFL teams that he polled this fall had LSU DT Glenn Dorsey as the top senior prospect for the 2008 NFL Draft."
- There were lots of NFL prospects at LSU's Pro Day yesterday. Check out the official scorecard here.
- The NY Times goes over some of the proposals that will be floated during the NFL's annual meeting next week.
- Could you imagine being $9 billion in debt? I know it's not really an issue for the NFL but man that's a lot of money flowing in and out of that league.
- Gardner-Webb DE Brian Johnston will visit the Jaguars before visiting with the Chiefs on April 16-17.
Did I miss something with all of this talk about the Chiefs
proposing a ban on long hair at at next week’s annual meeting in Palm Beach, FL? Is it that big of an issue?
It's not and I think that it's just a slow NFL news week. Thankfully, we've got the AP Mock Draft to keep us entertained. I'll be posting the #10 pick shortly.
Regarding long hair ban.
I think even if it passes there will be a lawsuit used to stop it from being enforced. Some of the players of Samoan/Polynesian decent have long hair for spiritual/religious reasons and I for one do not see a reason to have them cut it. But others with the super long predator dread lock hair I think can be made to cut it bc its a style and the NFL can do what it wants regarding style.TXroyal - March 27, 2008
$9 billion
That's nothing! It sounds like a huge chunk is for new stadiums, so as long as the real estate market doesn't completely collapse they'll be fine......oops.

I had no idea
that it was Heath Benedict who passed away suddenly. I was really pulling for him in this draft and think he could have helped the Chiefs as a later round pick. I just hope that it was the Good Lord who was ready to call him home and nothing to do with steroids.Lanier63 - March 27, 2008
More Peterson B.S.
Honestly, I don't see a point in this stupid hair rule. If it's really a problem for players, it's one that's self-correcting (since it's legal to tackle by the hair). This smells more like a Peterson P.R. stunt to keep folks paying attention to him in an offseason where he's basically done nothing but screw the pooch on rebuilding the team. If anything, it's more of a negative than a positive because it gives players yet another reason not to want to waste time talking to the Chiefs about coming here...why play for a bad team with a cheap GM who also wants to micromanage how you wear your hair?Basically, our GM has become just another cheap, bitter old crank who needs to be pushed into retirement...quickly.
