    RIP Tom Dempsey

    Victim of the virus, If you're of an age you know he held the record for longest FG in NFL history at 63 yards for many years. Did it at sea level in New Orleans not a mile high in Denver. 1971 iirc. RIP Tom. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/tom-dempse ... 57256.html

    Denver gonna be good next year IF Drew Lock can continue to develop. Don't forget they got Jurrell Casey as well a few days ago. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/289 ... es-broncos Pains me to say it but the Donkeys are my choice to finish 2nd in the AFC West behind KC.

    History of the AFL, awesome 5 part series!

    Originally aired on I believe Showtime. This is a fantastic documentary of the league called Full Color Footbal. I cannot recommend this more highly. As I said, 5 parts, one hour each. Something to entertain during our collective downtime. If you have an interest in the history of pro football...

    Bears trade for Nick Foles

    Gave up a fourth round comp pick. How long till he replaces Trubisky as the starter? Good move by them in my opinion and good for the jags if they're going to hand the reins over to the stash. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/289 ... bears-pick
