The NFL has suspended Jets linebacker Calvin Pace for four games without pay for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.

Pace will miss New York’s first four games of the season and will be eligible to return for the Jets’ Monday night game at Miami on Oct. 12.

In a statement issued by the team Thursday, Pace said the suspension is a result of taking an over-the-counter dietary supplement that he was unaware violated the NFL’s policy.

Pace, in his second season with the Jets, is eligible to participate in preseason practices and games.

Why hiring Dennis Green was the best move the Cards ever made

Ok stick with me on this one, In my opinion hiring Dennis Green was the best move in the history of the Arizona Cardinals. Denny was a cheerleader for drafting Fitz. If Green was not around who do we draft, Roethlisberger? A fine player in his own right but I think he was the right player at the right time for the Steelers, My guess with the Cardinals O line at the time he would have been flat on his back too many times. And out of the League or being a back up in Houston by now if he was originally drafted in AZ. Of couse Warner never would have been signed either. If Big Ben was on the Cardinals than he and Whisenhunt never would had their dispute in the steel city and Whiz would probably be the head coach in Pittsburgh right now. I am sure coach Grimm would be right there in the burgh with him.

Ok the record under coach Green sucked, the team was disgraced with the Chicago temper tantrum. I am certained if he was retained the birds would still be terible, but without the hiring and eventual firing of Mr Green I don't think anyone would be using the words "Defending NFC Champions" and "Arizona Cardinals" in the same sentance.

So call me nuts but I extend a big Revenge of the Birds thank you to Coach Green and his contributions to the team.
