Bill Walsh was a legend in the NFL. He developed the west coast offense and mentored some of the great coaches in the game today. Their is no doubt that he is one of the greatest there ever was. He coached the San Francisco 49ers to several super bowl championships. He coached greats like Joe Montana, Steve Young and Jerry Rice.

The Dallas Cowboys head into training camp with high expectation. Coach Parcell left after the end of last season. The season ended with a heartbreaking lose where a game was almost won except for a botched last second field goal. Wade Philips has been hired and the expectations are high again. Terrell Owens has been moved around to different positions so as to maximize his ability. The Dallas Cowboys merchandise and products is flying off the shelves as the fans are getting ready to support the cowboys.

Even though their are problems in the falcons camp the Atlanta fans are getting ready to support the falcons. Atlanta Falcons Merchandise is selling like crazy. Falcon fans are not fair weather fans. 

Michael Goodell and David Stern have some very tuff decisions to deal with for their respective sports. Bobby Petrino will start his career as the new head coach for the Atlanta Falcons with the Michael Vick situation. His statement is that he is disappointed that Michael has put himself in this situation. I could not agree more. If Michael did not do anything wrong (which is not the way things are looking) then he should be ok and be back as the starting qb of the Falcons. But if he had anything to do with this horrible crime of dog fighting, he should get the same punishment anyone else would get. He should also lose the right to be a person that young people look up too. And furthermore if he was not extremely involved but only allowed some of his so called friends to do this in his home and he is not willing to come forward and cooperate with the authorities then he should be willing to receive the punishment due him for doing so. He you are committed enough to cover for criminals then you should be committed enough to handle the punishment.

Personally I agree with Emmitt Smiths statement of Michael needs to look at leaving some of his old so called friends behind. By the way if any of Michaels so called friends read this and are offended. Maybe you should look at your friendship and see if you care enough about Mike to allow him to take the fall for you.

David Stern is having to deal with the alleged wrong doings of Tim Donaghy, the rouge official that has been accused of fixing basketball games. Tim Donaghy has been accused of betting on basketball games that he was calling. It is thought that he may have made calls to affect the outcome of these games. Can you imagine the way players will feel next season when questionable calls are made against them. NBA fans are looking forward to an intresting year

With last years season of 11-2, the LSU Tigers and Les Miles  should be proud. There has be much talk that Miles has been playing the Saban recruited players and I say those people need to give the credit to Miles. Where was Saban when Katrina hit and tore the state of Louisiana apart? I think you need to give credit where credit is due. Les Milles is a great coach, with greaux players! With that being said, there are plenty of great teams in the SEC conference, so what will set LSU apart from Florida, Texas, Arkansas and Georgia?

LSU is ranked pre-season at #2. Please respond with your thoughts about LSU pre-season rankings.

Micheal Vick of the Atlanta Falcons has been indicted for dog fighting and is accused of the brutal deaths of 8 dogs. Many voices on the internet and sports forums have stated their opinion that Vick would NOT be indicted on these charges.

Vick’s court appearance is scheduled for July 26, which is reportedly the same day the Atlanta Falcons training camp practice begins. I am sure this story will receive alot of press in the news and there will be great speculation about how the Atlanta Falcons owners and managers will respond.

What a line-up! This year’s college football season will be the most exciting one yet, with plenty of action from the above teams and of course there will be surprises as the season unfolds. By December, which team will be at the top then? Anything can happen in college football that is for sure. So don’t be upset, if your favorite team is not ranked in this poll. However, the competition will be tough and when it is all said and done, there is only one champion…who will it be and why does your tem deserve to be #1?

 

Terry Bowden from Yahoo Sports has posted his Sweet Sixteen predictions for the 2007-08 NCAA football  season. Who will be #1? According to Bowden, USC is the contender with John David Booty as quarterback and ten returning defensive starters. USC starts off their season on September 1 at home against Idaho. Some say that USC John David Booty will follow Matt Leinart as the next USC Heisman winner. Booty graduated a year early from Evangel High School in Louisiana to start his football career at USC, while watching Leinart from the bench on gameday his freshman year. John David Booty is a well-deserved canidate as he is a scholar, a tremendous athelete and has high moral  standards. Booty for Heisman. So will USC be this years champions. Will John David Booty be this years Heisman winner? Or will both of these things happen? What do you think?
