Seahawks Pinch Pennies With Rob Sims; May Regret It

Oakland, CA - A seven-year-old boy was at the center of a Bay Area courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Oakland Raiders Football Team, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

Clemson WR Jacoby Ford says he can guarantee he will run in the 4.2s at February's Scouting Combine.

Sounds like Ford is gunning for Chris Johnson's record. "I can guarantee a 4.2," said the NCAA track star, who ran a 4.126 in high school. "Yes, sir. It's just running." The knock on Ford entering the Senior Bowl was that he doesn't have as much speed in pads. But he's been one of the top risers this week.

This doesn’t mean there’s no chance for Watson to be a Patriot in 2010. If the market is really bad for him, he may not have much of a choice, if they make him an offer. But based on what I hear, it’s looking like he’ll head elsewhere.

Let me stress the fact that this is ONLY a rumor, but I am writing it, so that we can discuss it.

On the face of things it looks like a great idea. Think about it. Al Davis needs someone to take over the team that he trusts and that he has respect for. You have to believe that Jon won his respect when he wooped the Raiders in the Super Bowl and then watched his team go into a terrible downward spiral without "Chucky".

Al Davis also said, last year, that we going to bring in a football person who would surprise everyone. Other than one of the Mikes, Lombardi or Shanahan, who would shock recent fans more than the one who got away.

This may be just a pipe dream, but there have been implications from peopel like John Madden, himself, that Gruden would be the person brought in to run things when Al passes the torch.

With Gruden coming into town and partying with Raider fans at Ricky's in San Leandro last Saturday and then this rumor being tossed about, a Raider can dream can't he?

This guy is just what the Chiefs need to be feared again on D and that guy is Elvis Dumervil. With Dumervil leading the NFL in sacks this year with 15 I don'tsee how Denver can resign him with all there free agents the have this year and Dumervils biggest hero growing up was DT so what better way to be like DT then to be the league sack leader for the Chiefs! With these two rushing the passer it would go along way towards improving are defense and making people forget about Jared Allen.

The last time San Diego visited Kansas City, the AFC West dominoes began to fall. It all started when the Chiefs couldn’t hold on to an onsides kick attempt late in the game. It would have sealed the win for the Chiefs. Instead, San Diego completed an unlikely Week 15 comeback. Had the Chiefs held on for the win, Denver would have clinched the division. Had that happened, Mike Shanahan wouldn’t have been fired. Jay Cutler wouldn’t have been traded. Josh McDaniels likely would have been the choice in Kansas City by new general manager Scott Pioli. Norv Turner likely would have been fired and the Chargers would be starting over instead of the Broncos. It’s truly amazing what kind of impact one bounce of the ball can have on a division.
