My 2nd article, Next Installment, sometime next week
Moss Gone:
Damn, an end of an era. The deal isn’t official till the 2nd but its obvious that Moss is on his way out. The Vikings get Napoleon Harris, who brings instant credibility to a linebacking corps that is one of the worst in the league (if not the worst) E.J, Thomas, and Newman will all compete for the final linebacker spot on the roster, the front runner is probably EJ Henderson, either moving outside, or Having Napoleon Harris move outside. This will be an intense pre-season battle, and I hope that some one emerges as the #1 guy for that position. I have nothing but good things to say about Moss, and I wish him to be very successful in Oakland, and as long as he isn’t facing the Vikings that year, that he go out and get himself a Super bowl Ring.
Free Agency Starts in 48 Hours:
Let the bidding war begin! Some players will be cut for cap purposes, among them many Titans, including CB Samari Rolle, and WR Derrick Mason. Both of these Free agents will be among the most sought after at their positions. Ty Law CB from New England, was deemed expendable for the frugal Patriots, who saw the emergence of back-ups during his absence as a reason to cut the 11.5 million dollar contract. Ty Law will likely command a high price.
Spring Training Begins:
About damn time! I have missed baseball a lot lately, and I am anticipating some surprise players to come out of spring training on top. For those that don’t know, Spring Training is split among two leagues, The Cactus league, which plays in the Southwest, and the Grapefruit league, which plays mainly in the Florida area. It was an eventful off-season, that saw Oakland’s Big 3 dismantled, and Randy Johnson, arguably the best pitcher in the game right now, to the Evil Empire. We saw enormous contracts, and questionable signings, but even with the Roids controversy, I will still be here
Locked Out:
Well, after a weekend of false hope, the NHL is deemed dead. I love hockey, and I will never stop watching it. But right now, I don’t care about the NHL anymore. The Owners can blow it out their asses, and the players union needs to step up and just play the damn game. You can blame whomever you want, but really, does it matter? We just lost a full season of an amazing sport, which most people cannot fully understand without playing the game.
