To channel Gomer Pile for a moment:“Well suuuuuprise suuuuuuprise!”
I told you so yesterday! I knew once Peter King got his dirty little fingers on this story, it was cursed.
When
I say cursed, I mean, like
Haitian-Voodoo-lady-with-a-chicken-bone-through-her-nose cursed. Do you
doubt me? Anyone remember Jake Plummer for MVP in 2003 & 2004? I
do.
Although I would have loved to [...]

payment is due April 1.

From looking at the bottom half of the league for rushing yards in
2004, here is my step-through of teams at the bottom of the barrel and
my analysis of their need for Jordan. From looking at the teams, you

stroke-like symptoms, partial paralysis and blurred [...]
