Plum might have been the first example of how overrated passing statistics can be. He won two supposed "passing efficiency titles" but was traded for obvious reasons -- not clutch enough in big games. Could he have been better calling his own plays? Possibly, but even in Detroit, his leas...

That's pretty much it. The league's thirst for ratings/$$$ overrode its ersatz reverence about the holiday a generation ago. As I have written previously on this Forum, businessmen and politicians will make any decision or not make a decision on whether it will make more money. Even a small amount ...

I see in the news Herschel Walker finally got his degree from the University of Georgia at age 62.
