How?

He used his talent exceptionally well, I mean there was alot of mud flung back and forth, people saying he couldn't learn schemes etc., but when it came down to it, he had a degenerative knee problem and that's what ended his career ultimately. If anything I feel bad for the guy that he got injured.

Stevie Johnson to the 49ers for a 4th round pick.

[quote=WillH;1070913]Yeah I agree with you to some extent, but where is that line drawn?

I mean, often when their are speakers at events, or someone writing a book, or other such off-shoots from a person's previous career, they often refer to the companies they worked for in the past, and what they accomplished there. I don't know what the law is about this (do you need to ask permission first, can it be mentioned but just not used in ads, etc), but the NFL seems to get more uptight about their names and logos being used then other corporations.[/quote]

I guess the line is drawn at not using the team logo and name in your promotional items, like the flier he was using here.

Wrecking his motorcycle didn't help either. I can't feel bad for him there.

Yeah no doubt, and I believe the animosity between he the the skins had as much to do with him as them. So he's not blameless, but damn I wish he were healthy longer!

I'm with Snyder 100% on this one.

Lavar's the most overpaid overhyped player in Skins history (and we've had a bunch). Snyder paid the guy tens of millions of dollars and he couldn't even play his position properly....freelancing dumbbell.

Luckily we drafted the anti-Lavar in the same draft (Samuels). Big mouth Lavar got all the hype and attention, while CS went about his business quietly and professionally. Not surprisingly CS was 10 times the player Lavar ever was.

When I see LA on NFLN I have to change the channel immediately, and in hindsight I feel bad that Aikman's career was ended prematurely by this dork.

It's time for DS to "get em".

I just think its excessive. A year for something millions will partake in tonight, some in places where it's completely legal. Nfl needs to rethink this.

Damn, just when things were starting to look up for Clev this happens. I think it's the curse of Art Modell or something.

I agree, a year for smoking weed is just stupid but Gordon is stupid for putting himself in that situation.
