My NFL preseason thoughts and predictions.

Alright so its well documented and a known fact that I'm an absolute NFL freak, which was recently confirmed by my involvement in 4 NFL fantasy leagues this year.  As I do feel a bit silly looking back on how much I prepared for my drafts this year I do feel that the work will pay of in the end, literally!  Although I'm still officially in baseball mode, it doesn't take much for me to get super excited about the upcoming NFL season.  As I watch preseason games, draft for fantasy leagues, as well as watch shows like "hard knocks" and "NFL Live" I can't help but to get super pumped for football.  Obviously the most exciting part for me so far is the promise of my Green Bay Packers.  For those of you who don't know me I'm a long time HUGE Packers fan and have been since I was very young.  Can't wait to see my team go off this season!  I do have a few predictions for this upcoming season after evaluating all of the factors such as the many trades, injuries, disappointing players, and hold-outs.  My list of teams that I feel  will do well this year and are worth talking about are the 49ers, Packers, Texans, Ravens, and Dolphins.  My list of teams that will fall apart this year are the Jets, Cardinals, Vikings, and Eagles.  I think some of these teams people are super excited to see are going to flop and there are some sleeper teams that will do very well from what I can see so far through this preseason.  Two players who, to me, look as if they should not be starting NFL as QBs are Matt Leinart and Mark Sanchez.  Expect to see Derek Anderson and Mark Brunell in those rolls by mid-season.  Also I must mention my main man Michael Bush(Louisville Cardinal) of the Oakland Raiders who looks like he will finally get a chance to shine in a large roll this season despite his recently broken thumb.  Anyways many more NFL updates to come but I want to leave you with my 2010 preseason conference/divisional predictions! Please feel free to re-post your picks and/or comments on mine!

Worthless...

Yes we must talk about this ridiculous situation even though this sort of thing should never even happen in professional sports.  Can you believe that Albert Haynesworth has now failed the Washington Redskins minimal conditioning test 3 times in 5 days?  This guy is worthless, I first saw signs of this when he stomped on an opposing players head after his helmet had come off while playing for the Titans and was later suspended for the rest of that season.  I just can't believe that an adult who is getting paid $100M+ would consistently fail a test that we could all pass.  Keep in mind that he wouldn't even have to take this test if he would have shown up to camp on time(held out in protest of the new defensive system).  All I know if I were getting that kind of money I would shut up and do my job.  My conclusion = worthless, ungrateful, over-paid, etc...
