NFL Nuggets:

• Tom Coughlin, pictured above, has opinions on players that skipped this week’s voluntary workouts.
  • Borrowing from ESPN, Coughlin stated
    • “We’re very close to 100 percent attendance, and quite frankly, our players should be here building the concept of team, working hard side by side, constructing our bond of togetherness, formulating our collective priorities and goals.”
    • “Success in the NFL demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish and insensitive to the real values of team. The hard work that many try to avoid is the major building block for the development of an outstanding football team.”
    • “It’s not about rights and privileges. It’s about obligations and responsibility, and the question is: Can we count on you?”
  • The NFLPA has used the twitter to remind an old man that words have meanings:

• The AAF bankruptcy filing clocked in at over 1100 pages.
  • The biggest creditors are:
    • MGM – $7 million
    • CBS – $5.19 million
    • ASU – $1.2 million
    • plus a law firm & ad agency for $4.6 million combined.

• The NFL schedule makers seem to think they kinda, mighta, screwed over Tampa Bay.
  • They go through a 49-day stretch where they don’t play a home game.
    • From Week 3 to Week 10.
  • On the bright side, you can’t catch MRSA from what you don’t touch.

Finally, the Draft is one week from today. We will have a live blog hosted by (name unavailable), so make sure to come by & join us as we laugh at how the Raiders waste their Khalil Mack bounty.

• There are dozens of mock drafts out there for you to peruse, but I have no interest in them – mostly because I am not a monkey flinging shit at a wall for my network bosses.
  • I fling shit for myself, dammit; not for internet profit!
