Former Florida Gators wideout Percy Harvin’s name has surfaced recently as one of several NFL draft prospects to have supposedly failed drug tests at the 2009 NFL Scouting Combine.
Most of the prospects – B.J. Raji, Vontae Davis, Brian Cushing and Clay Matthews – have dispelled the report through either their representation or by the NFL itself. That is what you do when you are not guilty, right? You stand up and scream at the top of your lungs professing your innocence. At least that is what I know I’d do. *shrug* Curiously, though, Harvin’s camp has been dead silent on the issue. Not even a peep. His silence is deafening. Want more? Keep reading…

The nonsense is over with Jay Cutler, new quarterback for the Chicago Bears. A young man with all-world talent but the maturity of a 12-year-old!
First, do I want Cutler to fail? No, but I do want him to change and become someone I respect as a player. If not, then yes, I will root for his opponents and hope he loses! No different from my take on Terrell Owens.
- I don’t like it when people in the wrong cry, whine, lie and bellyache until they get their way. It sets a horrible example; it shows you can be a stereotypical, overpaid athlete who is an idiot and liar who still gets his way when he shouldn’t! I don’t like bad guys winning, and in this case, Cutler was the bad guy!
- I love and agree with the statements by Stefan Fatsis on Cutler, his style and personality and team owner Pat Bowlen’s belief. Read it, it’s a great take: Stefan Fatsis on the Broncos and Jay Cutler

“Tremendous, absolutely tremendous.”
That was how Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland described starter Edwin Jackson after the latter’s Tuesday, April 7, start. The righty lasted 7 1/3 innings and compiled some impressive numbers in his 2009 (and Tigers) debut. His final line read: 7 1/3 innings, two hits, two runs (one earned), one walk and four strikeouts.
Those not familiar with Jackson should know that isn’t an unexpected game from him. Only 25 – he made his MLB debut on his 20th birthday in 2003 – Jackson has often tantalized fantasy owners with his sizzling stuff and some quality outings. Want more? Keep reading…
