/ NFL Offseason 2014 /

I figure SF or Indy is where Martin will end up.

Lombardi actually did a good job with the Browns I think. Remember he was only there what, 9 months? And he pulled off that Trent Richardson robbery.

yeah apparently the owner fired them cuz he's pissed they didn't hire schiano. new coach maybe shouldn't buy a house.

Tony Gonzalez in, Dan Marino and Shannon Sharpe out at CBS

Cowher and Esiason could stand to go too, imo. Hell, get rid of James Brown while you're at it. They're the lamest NFL panel on gameday, and I'm including Fox.

i'm taking this weird delight in marino getting fired

haha. why?

Because he's a goofball?

he's soon to be a goofball executive for the dolphins, which will surely solve the organization's credibility problems!

idk, i just don't like the guy. that video where he gets all pissy on the set of the football show was hilarious to me.

wasn't he already a goofball dolphins exec for like five minutes?

almost nine minutes, thank you very much.

Laces out, Marino!!!

hey, lol, the local sun-sports cable channel is currently showing a favorable dolphins special on mike pouncey.

timely!

I'd be curious to hear if there is anything remotely redeeming about Mike Pouncey.

his name makes me think of energetic kittens?

i'll allow it

Reserve judgment guys!

mmmmmaybe they were just drunk?

so the dolphins flew to indianapolis as part of a team or nfl function. they took the coaching staff with them, including kevin o'neill, who's been on the staff for 18 years and was apparently hostile with wells during the investigation (o'neill abruptly cut-off the interview, for one thing). then, this happened:

Chris Kouffman ‏@ckparrot -- So the Dolphins flew Kevin O'Neill to Indy and had him give a talk to fellow trainers, interrupted the talk to summon him for his dismissal.

_________________________________

Chris Kouffman ‏@ckparrot -- This is after O'Neill had been with the franchise for 18 years, mind you. This organization has zero class. None.

stay classy, miami dolphins.

not cooperating with wells was also not classy tbf

top-to-bottom, dolphins are just the best.

The guy deserved the humiliation. They canned the O-line coach, i hope it was just as embarrassing for him.

So the cops are saying there's actual video of Ray Rice punching his fiancee. I don't need to see it. The fact that he's on video punching his fiancee is all I need to say FUCK THAT DUDE FOREVER.

yup

jesus fuck. suspend the hell out of him. the first video was bad enough and yea, I do not need to see this one.

but I just read that his fiancée's lawyer is "certain neither party committed a crime" - is she not wanting to press charges any more?

Absolutely shocked at the lack of media attention this story is getting.

Ah fuck

...that guy

Ray Rice will be welcomed back to the Ravens with open arms, yet the presence of Michael Sam will be a "distraction".

very video game-y

Yeah, because what was wrong with that emblem was that it was too small.

Feelin' that chrome hardware on the front, though.

has the Bucs logo always had a football in it and I just never noticed because it wasn't ENORMOUS

This version has, yes.

They had an opportunity to bring Bucco Bruce out of retirement and they passed. FU BUCS

that helmet is kinda awesome

i never noticed the third cutlass holding the flag.

missed opportunity to replace the skull with b. bruce

w/ a football between his teeth

that helmet is kinda awesome

that helmet is extra awesome. all helmets should be so fierce.

Looks like the wrong guy got it - Sidney Rice is getting released

I feel bad for Sidney. He just couldn't stay healthy for a whole season...ever.

the helmet itself is bad-ass, I wish every NFL helmet could double as a mirrorball

I'm just mad that my brain no longer edits out terrible design elements like that football

the football serves no purpose on that helmet. it just adds an unnecessary color. move the Bucs to LA

OTOH it would be kind of hilarious if the NFL mandated that every helmet design had to incorporate a football

also, replace the superfluous third cutlass with a flagpole

there is a very real danger that without the football on the helmet the players would be mistaken for actual pirates.

I'm not mad at the third cutlass, at least it's on theme

xp: lol

fuck that replace the football with two cutlasses side by side to make a football shape
with little cutlass laces
and cutlasses on the cutlasses
CUTLASS
