Holy Crap....I have seen some pretty BIG kids these days playing HS Football, but, I've never seen a 300 pound QB in High School. His name is Tony Casamento, he is a senior at Ellenville High School. Think back when you played High School ball, did you ever think you'd see a 305 pound body under center as a QB?? I hear his nickname now at the school is, "The Pillsbury Throw Boy."
QB Tony Casamento and his teammates of Ellenville will be playing in the Section 9 Class C Championship, Saturday, 11/8/2008, at 3 p.m. where they'll play Sullivan West. Sullivan West, is unbeaten this season, including 41-19 over Ellenville in season-opener for both teams. Ellenville hasn't lost since that game.

The 1st half of the fantasy football season has already passed us by, and no matter what your teams record is at this point in the season there is always room for improvement. My very own philosophy when it comes to fantasy football is very simple: Wide Receivers win you a Fantasy Championship.
The NFL has placed a greater emphasis on throwing the football in recent years with many teams last season setting records in terms of passing attempts, completions, yards, and touchdowns. This can be largely attributed to numerous franchises switch to a running-back-by-committee in which several backs splitting carries. Gone are the days when bell cow stud running backs carried your fantasy team to the playoffs. Significant injuries at the quarterback position have also impacted fantasy owners drastically as well with many blue-chip studs going down with injuries early in the first half of the season.
With that in mind, my 2nd Half Love/Hate Article is aimed to help you pick up the right players off the wavier wire, and make the right trade and land that receiver that will carry your team to a championship. The criteria taken into consideration for labeling players in this article include workload, second half schedule, and injuries. Its time to gear up for the second half of the fantasy season and prime your squad for a run deep into the playoffs.

Pacman Jones Suspended Indefinitely By NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
In the least shocking news of the day, Adam "Don't Call Me Pacman" Jones has been suspended (as expected) once again. In the wake of his recent incident with one of his team-issued bodyguards, Jones was suspended indefinitely by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, only days after Jerry Jones announced that he would not take any action against Pacman, and even went so far as to say that it wasn't Pacman's fault. This flew in the face of the Dallas media, where many were calling for Pacman to be kicked off the team.
Well I'd say its about time these coach just moved on and maybe look at taking over after daddy at Forida State. Yeah right... Clemson (3-3) has fired football coach Tommy Bowden, senior writer Dennis Dodd confirms. According to the Clemson Rivals.com and Scout.com sites, Tommy Bowden is out and the wide receivers coach Dabo Swinney will take over for the interim.
The Cowboys always seem to have an excuse for their poor play and losses, this past weekend is no different. Romo appeared to be favoring his throwing hand during Sunday's overtime loss to the Arizona Cardinals. CBS SPORTS is now reporting that Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has a broken pinkie finger on his throwing hand and will miss four weeks, the reports are coming from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Big Brown will likely miss the Breeders' Cup Classic after injuring his right front foot during a workout at Aqueduct on Monday. The Classic was expected to be Big Brown's final race before he was retired to stud.
With all the stress in this country these days, some of us have more bad days than most. For a good laugh here are some clips of people stressing out at work and completely freaking out. You feel your having a bad day, watch these clips you'll feel better and maybe, just maybe they will stop someone in your office from going postal. The music for this video montage of office meltdowns is quite fitting..."Bad Day" by Daniel Powter.
I'm not sure where some of these videos came from. It's quite amusing to watch this and then realize that your "bad day" is nothing compared to these people! So sit back, relax, and let the greatest office meltdowns of all time commence!
His tale of triumph and tragedy is one of the most inspirational and tear-jerking stories in American sports history, yet Ernie Davis remains relatively unknown to most sports fans born in the past 40 years. That may be on the verge of changing.
See the video as Jim Brown discusses Ernie Davis' career and being up front with Davis during the recruiting process when Davis was considering Syracuse.
This is an EXCELLENT article on rivals.com. It tells a great story of Ernie. Also see trailer of the Express and video clips of Ernie Davis at the link below.
Well here we go again in Dallas. It's T.O. vs PACMAN for the most spotlight, air time and TV Time. Well up until this point in the NFL season, it appears that Adam "Don't Call Me Pacman" Jones has been more or less a model citizen, YEAH RIGHT. I guess as much of a model citizen as a guy who's been arrested more than 10 times can be. Well what is "BIGFOOT" Commish Goodall going to do now, hmm?
