A closer look: Brandon Lang

SAN DIEGO – Rookie linebacker Brandon Lang was used to being a superstar. The self-described jock wandered the halls of Tucker High School in Tucker, Ga., one of the most coveted prep athletes in the state.

Hall passes

Lead pipe locks and on-the-fringe players for Canton The month of June is traditionally the slowest for the NFL, which gives guys like me a chance to speculate -- on, say, things like future Hall of Famers. The careers of quarterback Kurt Warner and left tackle Walter Jones came to an end this offseason, and I believe their bodies of work will get them into the Pro Football...

A closer look: Dedrick Epps

SAN DIEGO – One quarter and one nickel are the same as three dimes. A half-court swish counts for the same three points as an accidental bank shot from two inches behind the line. Whether you chug three bottles of water at lunch or sip them throughout the day, you consume 60 ounces. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and a bunch of parts can add up. Seventh...

Top 10 OVerpaid/Underperforming:

10.Brandon Jacobs, Giants RB This New York RB will be paid $7.5 million again in 2010, but shouldn’t he be rushing for 1,000 yards? That’s a no big-deal stat anymore in a 16-game season. But Jacobs managed only 835 yards in '09 and scored only five TDs behind one of the game’s best O-lines. Ahmad Bradshaw gained a full yard more per carry than Jacobs and also scored seven...

Q & A: Antoine Cason

SAN DIEGO -- Antoine Cason is heading into the most important season of his young professional career. The Chargers traded cornerback Antonio Cromartie in the offseason and need Cason to become the star they expected him to be when they drafted the Arizona product in the first round of the 2008 NFL draft. He played nickel back as a rookie but lost his position to Steve Gregory...

A closer look: Nathan Vasher

SAN DIEGO – Nathan Vasher once was a vital cog in the Chicago Bears’ defense. The team that drafted him in 2004 let him go this spring after six seasons and one Pro Bowl. Vasher has eschewed any sort of bitterness toward his old franchise, due in part to his signing with San Diego, which seeks a fifth consecutive AFC West championship this year. “I’ll do whatever they...

Happy 80th Birthday, Clint Eastwood!

TCM, this morning, has been airing all three of the Clint Eastwood "Spaghetti Westerns". As an Actor, Director and overall Film Maker, I have to consider him one of my favorites. A wide variety of films, some of movie history's most memorable quotes, always entertaining, be it Comedy, Drama or History. On top of that, he digs Jazz! Happy 80th Birthday, Clint Eastwood...

Enough with practice squad; time to get real

Gary Banks gets it. He’s 28 years of age and has yet to play a down, catch a pass or make a tackle in the NFL. This is his time, his inning. There’s a place for him now. It’s doubtful the window of opportunity will open wider than it has at this moment. He knows it. So do the Chargers. It’s all up to Gary Banks. No one else. He either makes it or he doesn’t. Coaches select...

Anybody ever watch Cheaters?

I have to admit that it is one of my guilty pleasures. The first time I ever saw it was one night after SNL I did not realize that SNL had ended so at first I thought it was a part of the show and I thought that it was a parody of the show that I had heard of its name but had never watched. But after about 10 minutes I realized it was not a skit about the show but in fact the show...

The Padres Will end the Month of May in 1st

With two days left in May and a two game lead in the western division the Padres will end May at worst with a tie for first place in the Division. What a great first two months of the season! The pitching has been far stronger than I had hoped for and sadly the hitting about as bad as I feared, yet they are winning! Go PADRES!:)
