?? Ah NOOO. That was public knowledge years ago. I knew about it when I visited Minnesota for Randy's first ever football game which would have been 1988 I guess? From what I remember, that cut made him realize that he was very soon running out of options in life. Minnesota signed him and he cleaned up his act. I was lucky enough to have bumped into Cris in the mall of America and got his picture taken with me. I have it hanging in my wreck-room downstairs.
Was that really worth a post?
Based on the posts in this 1.5 pg thread
:Brooks was the only player pickedany of these new free-agents worth a look?
That Dixon kid had freaky measureables, but at his workout, he didn't match them. Berryman and Hall probably have the best chances to stick. This is just what I've read, not an educated opinion or anything.
Agreed. I never thought I'd say this, but I look forward to seeing the Steelers crush the Bengals in 2006. The Bengals are nothing but a bunch of scumbags. I can't stand Pittsburgh, but at least they are a classy organization, with the obvious exception of Porter.
Ive always thought Ward was a turd too. Team player, but still a punk.
But, they have a smart, hard working leader in Carson Palmer. the team doesnt revolve around all these other role players.
the talk was a 4th yesterday so maybe Miami and San Fran were holding out. I thought Cincy would take him originally. Just too weird that he met with Marvin for dinner, their LBer coach did his workout in front of all the other teams and Hunley(Hundley?) loved him. I don't know about the character. Seems like Henry was a little blurb around draft time that kept getting repeated. Ahmad has been hounded about this for months and has been the center of conversation for a few months.
I don't think that's true because of all the interest by his buddies. Parcells, Mangini, Romeo, or BB wouldn't have been interested then and would have trusted his opinion then. I'm not saying Groh praised him as a person for sure. We don't know that but we do know he created an interest amongst his friends. I can't imagine a 100% negative report would interest those guysI'm reading the same things, that Groh has not gone out of his way to talk up Brooks. As T-Man mentioned, this makes a lot more sense considering Groh kicked him off the team.
Lenny P has a good article on ESPN.com today about the supp draft and it's history. I wasn't aware that Cris Carter was a supp draft pick.
I don't get that. I'm not a Steelers fan, and actually despise them as any Browns fan should, but I never had a problem with Hines Ward. He is a hard working player that has fun on the field. I know a lot of people rip on him for crying when they lost the AFC Championship game in 04 but he wanted to win it for Bettis because he thought he was retiring. It's not like he got mad, and choked his coach or beat his wife.
