 Following Sunday night’s 38-14 trouncing of the San Diego Chargers, Bill Belichick once again proved he is a masterful football coach. He doesn’t fall into the category of a Barry Bonds, who wouldn’t have achieved nearly as much without “cheating” the game. The dominant victory indicates that “CameraGate” is much closer to Richard Nixon’s spying arising out of unnecessary insecurity. Belichick demonstrated that he can still out-coach even the most effective and efficient defenses and offenses and deserves to be regarded as one of the top head coaches in the NFL. But, something about the whole situation feels dirty. |

Last weekend the Falcons saw their quarterback depth-chart take another hit losing DJ Shockley for the season to an ACL injury on Friday night. The Redskins were more fortunate with Jason Campbell only taking a bruised knee out of the injury he suffered. The Giants and Ravens combined for 6 injuries in their Sunday game and there were a host of other sprains, strains, tears, pulls and breaks during the first two weeks of preseason action. |

755 came in San Diego, and to the surprise of many, the reception was more cheering than jeering and seemed to represent that regardless of anything else, it is clear that Barry Bonds’ latest home run means a great deal. With Bonds’ homerun record of 756, surpassing Hank Aaron, the debate will soon shift from the recognition that he deserves for his accomplishment to his legacy and his place in history. Only the naďve, and Willie Brown, still believe that Barry’s record is completely clean. |

Following the 2006-07 NCAA football season, Darius Walker was faced with a choice: Should he head to the pros after his junior season or stick around one more year with the Fighting Irish and Coach Weis? If he chose to stay, he almost certainly would have broken the Notre Dame’s career rushing record and become known as one of the top running backs in school history. He would have been the focal point of the team’s offense, and though good defenses would stack the box against him, he would have had monster games against Army, Navy and the other powder puff squads Notre Dame faces each year. He would have even gotten a fair amount of Heisman hype with the increased exposure from Notre Dame’s deal with NBC. |
