Former Wake Forest assistant Tommy Elrod has been accused of leaking game plan information to opponents of the Wake Forest Demon Deacons since 2014.  I can’t say I am surprised that former Wake Forest assistant coach Tommy Elrod was busted for giving away game plan information for the past two seasons. What Elrod did goes on more than you think. Elroad was disgruntled after current Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson chose…

Many people around the NFL were surprised on Monday night when Dolphins running back Arian Foster announced his retirement from the NFL at the age of 30. It shouldn’t be a surprise.  Foster was nowhere near the player he was in 2010 and 2011. Foster just didn’t have it physically and you can see it from the first moment he stepped on the field with the Dolphins. He just wasn’t…

I wish that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones would just come out and say it. I wish that he would just admit that Dak Prescott is the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys moving forward. Prescott has earned the job and while I get that it is not fair to Wally Pipp Tony Romo, it is the right move for the Dallas Cowboys now and for the future. Romo has given his…

I am a little confused these days. I am trying to figure out how Texas coach Charlie Strong is on the hot season but Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly isn’t. After all, didn’t Texas beat Notre Dame to start the season? You can’t tell me that expectations are higher at Notre Dame than they are at Texas because that is simply not true. The fans base and alumni at both…

The Minnesota Vikings beat the New York Giants 24-10 last night to improve to 4-0 on the season but that’s not what we are talking about this morning. Instead, most of the media attention once again centers around the antics of Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. who finished with 3 catches for 23 yards and acted like a complete tool. Beckham was out of control last night. He had…

The Minnesota Vikings found out yesterday that the cost of doing business in the NFL can be costly.  After losing quarterback Teddy Bridgewater last week to a season ending knee injury, the Vikings traded a 2017 first round pick and a 2018 fourth round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles for Sam Bradford. Bradford signed a two year extension with the Eagles this off-season to be the place holder while Carson…

Tony Romo is hurt again and the prevailing thought nationally is that the Cowboys season is already over. That’s hogwash as far as I’m concerned. Contrary to popular belief, the Cowboys season is not over. Rookie quarterback Dak Prescott has shown that he is more than capable of leading the Cowboys the first six to ten weeks while Romo is out.  Why do I have so much confidence in Prescott…

I can’t say I’m surprised that Colin Kaepernick refused to stand up for the national anthem the other night against the Packers. It’s par for the course for a guy who is immature and has a lot of growing up to do.  Kaepernick has been a major league bust since the 49ers rewarded him with a $114 million dollar extension in 2014. He has not lived up to the contract…

The NFL suspended Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell for three games yesterday for failing to comply with the league’s drug testing policy. Bell was originally suspended for four games but the NFLPA negotiated to reduced the suspension to three . Why did the NFL reduce the suspension? Who knows? Your guess is as good as mine. When it comes to discipline, the NFL is all over the map. Giants…
