The 28-year-old WR has begun his professional career since 7 years ago. He used play for the Saints, the Eagles and the Patriots before he came to the Browns.

Dave Checketts confirmed his intention to buy the Rams

The family of late owner Georgia Frontiere is reviewing the assets of her estate, including the NFL team Rams. The review furtherly confimed the potential sale of the team.

The one who will buy the team is Dave Checketts, who has been already heading a group to communicate with the Rams owners.

At the moment 60 percent of the Rams belongs to Georgia Frontiere's family and the remaining 40 percent was owned by Stan Kroenke, a billionaire of Columbia, Mo. If Checketts succeeds in buying the Rams, he will do a great favor to Rams fans because that will keep the NFL team in St. Louis.

Marshall's disorderly conduct will not cause suspension in NFL

On March 1st in Atlanta, the Broncos WR Brandon Marshall was charged for his disorderly conduct. He was arrested on that charge, but later the charge was dropped. Accordingly, the NFL did not suspend him for it, which has been comfirmed by a league spokesman.

Last year, Marshall faced similar situation and got suspension for one game. Originally the suspension was for three games. Marshall came back to the game in Week 2, and made a highest record in his career of 104 receptions for 1,265 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games.His total records are 226 receptions for 2,899 yards and 15 touchdowns in three NFL seasons.

Good job. We may expect a better record this year, but only if he could contol his personal-conduct.

Doctor said Brady's recovery is quicker than expectation

Tom Brady got injury on his left knee last year in the Patriots’ 2008 season opener, and went to Los Angeles to undergo surgery. He came back to the team practice last week.

The doctor who performed the surgery on Brady is the team doctor for Major League Baseball’s Los Angeles Dodgers. He told the media that Brady's ability to rehabilitate is over his expectation, much more quicker than average people.

To Patriot fans, it is really a good news. Brady's early coming back before season begins will add the Patriots possibility to win more games.

Vince Wilfork: Just hold out!

I always think that NFL players has already been paid enough, at least more than most of us common people. But I still support Vince Wilfork to hold out with his demands of new contract. He just worths it.

Just think about how many defensive tackles are better than Vince Wilfork? Albert Haynesworth, Kevin Williams and Haloti Ngata cover all the name on the list. And anyway these three are unlikely to join the Patriots, at least recently. So how can the Patriots go on without Vince Wilfork? The defense will be messed up. They should consider Wilfork's demand seriously and make a decision soon. Otherwise, no one can guarantee that Vince Wilfork will not leave the Pats and join other teams. That would be a big loss.

Eagles is worrying about Jim Johnson's recovery

The sign of worrying is the bringing in of former Cowboys' defensive coordinator Brian Stewart, although the Eagles did not give Stewart any definite role.

Jim Johnson has been fighting over his cancer for several months. He tried best to be acting as normal, but his indefinite leave of absense did make the Eagles worry about the team's performance without him. Perhaps, without Jim Johnson being present, the team's defense will become a big problem. Thus bringing in Brian Stewart is reasonable. Just in case.

Hope that Jim Johnson will recover soon.

Plaxico Burress should be careful in choosing his team

The Tampa Buccaneers is expecting a great player. Even they did not mention the mystery great player's name, it is certain that Plaxico Buress should be the very person. However, Burress has more than one choices, and the Buccaneers should be the last one.

There are Oakland Raiders, the Cowboys and the Eagles. Taking that the Raiders will go with Jeff Garcia at the QB and a healthy Darren Mcfadden running back, it should be the best choice for Burress; If without Terrell Owens, Adam Jones, etc., the Cowboys is also a good choice; The Eagles is as compelling as the Raiders, with Donovan McNabb being an elite QB and rising young receivers DeSean Jackson and rookie Jeremy Maclin.

Anyway, the Buccaneers is not the best choice, without any elite QB. Burress needs to be careful in choosing.

Brady's unpeaceful new life

On Thursday, the Patriots QB Tom Brady came back to the practice field, with about 80 media members waiting in the drizzle for asking questions about his new life.

The drizzle made the grass somewhat wet and slippery, several players falling over, but Brady just made it through without troubles, despite that he just recovered from his knee injury. In this practice activity, Brady had to practice to work with his new teammates-- RB Fred Taylor, WRS Joey Galloway and Greg Lewis. While being asked by reporters, the most asked qestions were about his new wife, a supermodel, Gisele Bundchen. He tried to deny the rumors that Gisele is pregnant, but he did use the plural noun "children" when mentioned his family.

Maybe he just wanted to bring a peaceful life to his family, however, as a famous football player, he will have to make more efforts.

Retired coaches will be consultant

Here the retired coaches refers to Tom Moore and Howard Mudd, who was Indianapolis Colts coaches. They started working for the Colts in 1998 and decided to retire about 2 weeks ago.

The Colts owner Jim Irsay told reporters that he wanted the two retired coaches back working as the team's consultant. He believed that their experience could help the team move forward and teach other coaches. However, except Tom Moore and Howard Mudd would like to work for free for several months, Jim has to wait until mid-November when he can signed any agreements with them.

It is said that retired coaches must wait for 6 months ater they filed retirement documents before they can accept another paid job in football teams.

What future will LB Ellis have?

If possible, The Cowboys will release or trade LB Greg Ellis so that there will be more space to the team's salary-cap.


A report on the Dallas Morning News said that the Cowboys are considering trading or releasing veteran LB Greg Ellis, a move that

could free up between $4.15 to $5 million for the team’s salary cap. The Dallas Morning News also said that Ellis did not appear at the team’s OTAs on Thursday after playing with the first team onTuesday.

Although Ellis has been looking forward to being a Dallas Cowboy, it seems that there is nothing he can do if the team makes decision.

3 are expected to be competing for the vancancy: The Cowboys loaded up on pass rushers in the 2009 NFL Draft, Brandon Williams from Texas Tech, Oregon State’s Victor Butler, and Anthony Spencer.

Ellis entered the Cowboys in 1998 as the first-round draft pick. The most impressive of him might be that the team chose him other than WR Randy Moss.
