WHAT A BABOOZE! X 2


If you really thought about it long enough, you probably could have seen this coming...FOX-TV Channel 12 in Portland is reporting that Former Warrior Defensive Line Coach and current Portland State Head Coach, Jerry Glanville (Fred von Appen Jr.) has called Kevin Hart's Fernley High School near Reno requesting film footage. Hart is the Offensive Lineman explained in a Feb. 1 school assembly that he would sign a letter of intent with Cal. But Cal never recruited him, nor did anyone else.
Hart had originally claimed that he had been duped into believing that both Cal and University of Oregon were recruiting him but later admitted it was a lie.

Is it just me or does it seem like Jerry is trying too hard to be like June and give players a "second chance" I'm pretty sure Hart is not the next Colt Brennan, Pisa Tinoisamoa, or Davone Bess.

Youtube Clip above is the AP Story of Hart's "Big Day"

ROOKIE RUNS WILD ON AFC...

They could have played this Pro Bowl on the beach with flag football rules. All of which was to the liking of Terrell Owens and Adrian Peterson.

Making up for early sloppiness, Owens caught two touchdowns passes, including a 6-yarder from Tampa Bay's Jeff Garcia for the winning points in the NFC's comeback 42-30 victory over the AFC on Sunday.

Owens was aided by Offensive Rookie of the Year Peterson, whose 129 yards rushing was the first performance of more than 100 yards since Marshall Faulk had 180 and Chris Warren added 127 in 1995. The Minnesota running back scored twice as the NFC rallied from a 24-7 deficit, earning himself MVP honors.
