NFL officials are clowns

I want to preface this by saying Jim Kozimor is my friend and more important he is one hell of a host for Chron Live. I love working with him. Tonight he got worked up because I called the scab refs clowns. He said that was unacceptable on the show. [...]

Replacement officials are a joke

The replacement officials are a disgrace and they are dangerous. I blame them for that scary hit on Heyward-Bey. The game already was out of control because no one respects these officials. Heyward-Bey got hit helmet to helmet -- the officials' fault. Bill Belichick grabbed a ref, certainly not allowed, [...]

The NFL’s scab officials

It's pretty disgraceful the first week of NFL games will be officiated by scabs. These guys will be intimidated by the players and will have a hard time working up the nerve to call holding on the line of scrimmage and pass interference. Some of the big college conferences wouldn't [...]

Morris Claiborne and the Wonderlic Test and the NFL

The Santa Rosa Press Democrat just posted my Tuesday column. I wrote about Morris Claiborne, a highly-regarded cornerback from LSU who soon will enter the NFL draft. Two things make him noteworthy. 1) He is a very good player and he may be drafted in the top ten. 2) He [...]

Is Gregg Williams’ rant business as usual in NFL?

Here is my Gregg Williams column, as I promised earlier today. In this I ask if Williams' paying of bounties to hurt opposing players and if his rant the night before the Niners playoff game is business as usual in the National Football League. Remember, he told his players to [...]
