1. St. Louis Rams Sam Bradford QB, Oklahoma
I think that Jimmy Clausen will be the better pro, but I’ve read rumors that Bradford is the Rams’ guy right now.  They’ve passed on Matt Ryan and Mark Sanchez. They can’t afford to pass again.  Suh and McCoy are the better prospects, but the Rams are desperate [...]

1. Ndamukong Suh DT, Nebraska- Could be 1A and McCoy 1B, but Suh is the best prospect this year.
2. Gerald McCoy DT, Oklahoma- High motor tackle can play in either 3-4 or 4-3.
3. Eric Berry S, Tennessee- Drawing comparisons to Ed Reed, one of safest picks this year.
4. Russell Okung OT, Oklahoma State- Just [...]

Cricket and some football and other stuff. It’s a short one. Enjoy the View.

Recently I had the chance to do a TV news package on a potential NFL Draft pick.

Logging on to Yahoo one evening to check e-mails, there was one of those feature story headlines that caught my attention. Worst Cities to Live In was the title. Forbes had ranked their 20 worst cities in the U.S. to reside. Usually I totally ignore such stories because it’s usually someone’s attempt [...]

My board has reached 40: Rick Dees and the weekly top Forteeeeee…sorry. We are about 7 weeks away from the draft and the Combine is just about finished up. This board will keep changing up until draft night…as much as I hate that it’s on primetime.
1. Ndamukong Suh DT, Nebraska- Simply said about his senior [...]

Olympics, cricket, AFL, netball… Yep! It’s sport time in Australia! And it’s yet another view!

The combine will be starting this week in Indianapolis, home of the “Desperate for Somebody to Take the Blame for the  Super Bowl Loss Other Than Peyton Mannings.” Players will run and jump around in their underwear to try to impress NFL scouts. I am really into the draft and everything, but I can’t help [...]

1. Ndamukong Suh DT, Nebraska- Simply said about his senior year: Dominant.
2. Gerald McCoy DT, Oklahoma- High motor tackle can play in either 3-4 or 4-3.
3. Eric Berry S, Tennessee- Drawing comparisons to Ed Reed.
4. Jimmy Clausen QB, Notre Dame- Out of pro-style offense, but a franchise QB?
5. Joe Haden CB, Florida- Top CB, has [...]

More Winter Olympics (from an Australian view point), more cricket and more other sport. It’s another view!

Tom Shatel of the Omaha World-Herald recently interviewed Nebraska Offensive Coordinator Shawn Watson.  I found some incredibly telling information within the few questions and answers.  Among them:
Wats explained how the offense was thrown into ‘management’ mode even before the season started when they lost both OL Jaivorio Burkes and IB Quentin Castille, both of whom [...]

1. St. Louis Rams Ndumakong Suh DT, Nebraska
This pick could easily be Jimmy Clausen, but I’m keeping Suh here. All of the talk so far has been that the Rams will take Suh. But I have to wonder if Clausen is a better option. He’s been in a pro style offense and the Rams desperately [...]

5. Sam Bradford QB, Oklahoma- Deadly accurate, but [...]

Confession is good for the soul they say (and just who in the bloody hell are they anyway?). So I have a confession. I missed a great deal of the Super Bowl on Sunday. While millions of fans and non fans were glued to their myriad of types of TVs. I was not one of [...]

A brief one as I have become caught up in the spectacle that is the Winter Olympics. Still, enough sport here for everyone. Enjoy the view!

Years from now, this game may turn out to be a torch passing game. In many ways, the game appeared that way to me as it unfolded Sunday night. It was the Saints, the new kids on the block, taking down the Colts, one of the most dominant teams of the last decade, to become champions of pro football. It was Peyton Manning and not Drew Brees who made the game-clinching mistake as one would expect the younger, inexperienced Brees to make such a mistake considering Manning has already been to a Super Bowl—in the same stadium as Sunday’s. It was Drew Brees and not Peyton Manning who bumped his game up to that necessary next level to boost his team. And it was the Saints, not the Colts, who made the most out of what their opponent gave them.

Yes, more wrestling. And more sport. And an Aussie perspective of the Superbowl. And, thanks to popular demand, a brief guide to the game known as Australian Rules Football! (And watch Underbelly!) This is the View!

Perhaps it isn’t good for a reporter/columnist to be speechless, but for a while there…I truly was.

Super Bowl 44 is today from Miami between the Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints. The IP Sports crew has your predictions!
Eugene – : I’ve got to go with the Colts. Their defense, even without Freeney, is better than the Saints. I look for Manning to have a big day. Brees is [...]

It’s all come down to this.  Super Sunday, the most important football game of the year.  And looking out my window seeing the two-plus feet of snow, to me Miami looks like some kind of Eden.  A sunny, drunken Eden full of football and car commercials.  That’s what the Super Bowl should bring.  Oh!  And [...]

I realized this isn’t the first time this sort of thing has happened, but come on, this is ridiculous.

Two days till the big game.  TWO DAYS!  And there is a lot to do before Sunday.  I have to figure out the food, the spread, and collect the bets.  But I guess all that can wait ’til the last minute.  I have to make my picks!………..Actually, I may wait on that too.  It’s the [...]

This Sunday, football season ends in Miami with Super Bowl XLIV and for the first time in years, there’s a Super Bowl where the sides are pretty even on who people think are going to win. Last year, Pittsburgh was a pretty clear favorite, the Pats were supposed to run over the Giants, the Colts did run over Chicago, the Steelers were pretty safe favorites against Seattle a few years back, but this year people are still scratching their heads about a winner, and that’s even after Dwight Freeney became a story this week.

1. St. Louis Rams Ndumakong Suh DT, Nebraska
All of the talk so far has been that the Rams will take Suh. But I have to wonder if Clausen is a better option. He’s been in a pro style offense and the Rams desperately need a franchise QB. But is Clausen a franchise QB? He had [...]

I have never really been huge into Signing Day, kind of falling along the same lines as the guys at The North End Zone that ranking recruiting classes based on the high school playing ability of 18 year old boys is kind of stupid.  The guys at the NEZ listed the top 5 recruiting classes LAST year.  Hmmm.  [...]

Welcome to the newest feature here at Inside Pulse Sports – My Team is Better Than Yours. 2 fans face off on why their team is better than there opposition. Once they make their case, I’ll decide which one is more persuasive and declare the winner.

The Senior Bowl is done with and we left with so much more knowledge on Senior prospects going into this coming April’s NFL Draft. Tim Tebow is “who we thought he was!” and only one player left with a serious injury (O’Brien Schofield LB from Wisconsin). The next stage in the prospect evaluation process is [...]
