Which struck you as funnier...

the Giants trading the world for a QB that the Chargers wanted desperately to get rid of, or thier next pick being Chris Snee, who also just happens to be the father of Coughlin's grandchild?
I heard that and did a double take. This guy had better be a pretty good gaurd! And Coughlin what are you doing letting an ugly looking dude like that get anywhere near your daughter.

Although the Dennis Green/Fitz connection looked like a big reason he was picked there, he was the best available at #3 so I didn't care a whole lot about that. Hearing about this Snee thing is awful fishy.

Another friend of mine mentioned that Matt Mauck of the champion LSU Tigers was drafted after his backup at LSU...Note that the backup was a senior and Mauck was a junior that probably felt his year was probably enough to get him in the door.

Funnier - father of coach's grandchild...talk about job insurance.

I've got one.... Michael Irvin busting on Roy Williams for being soft and staying in school for another year. That whore-using, drug-using, "do you know who I am" piece of crap! How dare Irvin say anything about anyone's character? Please.

Irvin is probably just jealous that Williams can spell, and bitter because he doesn't have a source of income to support his drug habits anymore.

Seriously, for anyone in the NFL to criticize a player for staying in college, getting their degree, insuring they will have a livelihood and means by which to make a living past the age of 30-35, is just ignorant.

Even though it is a total abuse of 20-20 vision, the cocaine Cowboy, Irvin, did reveal just how much that education means to most athletes. I still wait for the day I hear him yell something intelligent.

Well get comfy, thats going to be a long wait

[NittanyLions]

Irvin is a jerk and I hated him along with Deion while they played on the hated Cowboys. Anyway I think the Coughlin connection is pretty suspicious, but it is good to have a connection with your players

but who said it was supposed to be genetic?

Honestly, if you ask me it is much wiser to leave school as soon as you can. Economiclly it is the right choice. By staying in college you miss out on a year or two of the money you could make by being a professional athelete and the years that you can do this profession are limited. So that is potentially millions of dollars that will be lost in the year or two that you stay in school. If you leave early you can make more money during your professional career and then when you are done playing sports there is nothing that is stoping you from going back to school and getting your degree. By that point if you have had a successful career you will have the financial freedom to take 2 or 3 years to finish your degree and then move on to another job. So really what Irvin said wasn't all that stupid, he just said it like an idiot.
