October 2009 ArchivesIt is time for the NFL to fix its outdated overtime format. I'm not saying that because the Rams lost to the Jaguars on the first possession of overtime. The Rams were dominated in the second half. If not for two great plays, one by Leonard Little and another by Steven Jackson, the Rams would have lost in regulation. Here's all you need to know about overtime in the NFL. 43 percent of all overtime games last season were won on the f... Coach Bob Ryan, Prepcasts.com OK....some things did go as we talked about last week but there were several "surprises" in all classifications.

Vince, Ozzie & Willie running wild on the bases. Jack the Ripper driving in runs. Terry Pendleton putting up several nice seasons. It also reminds me of how the game as changed. In his first three seasons in the major league Coleman stole 100... |
