    Did they bother to look up that the guy didn't have a single catch last season? I see no improvement out of this guy from last season.
    Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

        I would love to see Brian Banks make the Atlanta Falcons.


        For those who may not have heard, Brian Banks was accused of raping a girl when he was 17-years old. He was facing 41-years in prison so he entered a plea bargain. He spent 5 years in jail and 5 years on probation. The girl who accused him of rape, got a settlement of 1.5 million from the Long Beach School District for not providing a safe environment. The girl eventually contacted Banks on Facebook. Banks was able to videotape her recanting her claims that he raped her. With this evidence, Banks conviction was overturned.

        Banks has been absolutely screwed and it would be a great story if he could make an NFL roster.

            I've wished they would throw that girl in jail for 5 years and make her pay back the money.

              School district is suing her for 2 million. Even if they win, they aren't getting all the money back. I'm assuming any statute of limitations has run on any crimes she committed with the false report and/or any potential perjury.

              There is so much wrong with what she did. She destroyed 5 years of the guys life. Deprived him of his freedom, deprived him of his college scholarhsip, deprived him of his college experience, and deprived him of his potential to earn millions of dollars. Plus, she has hurt victims of rape who will have to deal with claims that they are lying like she did. I have only slightly more respect for this woman than someone who is a rapist.

                She was ordered to pay the money back a few months ago plus 1.1 million in fees.

                  For those that want to watch Ansah get Ziggy with it tonight, here's the NFL's online option for watching any preseason games live online (for $19.99):



                  They will also be replaying the Jets-Lions game on the NFL Network on Saturday at 2 pm MDT.

                    I'm sure she's good for it.

                      Same here. I'm sure that all the money has been sitting in a good investment account and she has been living off the interest/proceeds. I'm sure the school will easily get its money back.

                      Reading an old article on this, the PI that got the recording from her said that he thinks her intent was to try to get back together with Brian. This woman is insane.


                      And why would Gibson meet with Banks in the first place? Was it a trap? Was it guilt? No. Banks thinks Gibson -- are you ready for this? -- was hoping to get back together.

                      "You read the texts and that's the only conclusion you come to," says a source who worked on the case. "She seems absolutely clue-free about what she did to him."

                        Completely agreed. What she did is a true disservice to people who have really been sexually assaulted.

                        That whole story pissed me off.

                            4-12, 55 yards. From that game, interesting that the Eagles have GJ Kinne - I think he could do well in the Chip Kelly offense, given an opportunity.

                                Jags have new threads. I'm not particularly enthused by the changes, but I guess you can't do a whole lot with black, teal and gold. They need to start from scratch.
