"[Rookie QB Colin Kaepernick] doesn't have that rookie, deer-in-the-headlights mentality. I think he's going to be a good quarterback."
-Joe Staley, 49ers OT
Well thank god. 49ers fans, rest easy tonight. The long wait for Jeff Garcia's successor is finally over. After throwing the ball around with Kaepernick for an hour, Joe Staley thinks he's going to be a good quarterback. This is kind of like turning off a baseball game after the first pitch, walking away and confidently saying, "Glad we won this one!" Not to mention, when you've been working with Alex Smith for the previous four years, the bar in quarterbacking isn't exactly set super-high. If Kaepernick avoided throwing ball nine feet over anyone's head and didn't run screaming from the pocket as soon as ball was snapped, the Niners have to look at that as a success.
But back to my original point, is the lockout over yet?

"He's many, many months into his recovery now. He's doing fantastic...He is a legendary healer. He comes back from injury faster than anybody I've ever seen."
-Drew Rosenhaus, discussing T.O.'s recently discovered ACL Surgery
If TO is actually ready for the start of the 2011 season, we can agree this was not natural, right? I don't know whether it's HGH, stem cells, voodoo magic or TO drank Wolverine's blood, but no one comes back from a torn ACL in four months. Physically impossible.
Oh wait, Drew Rosenhaus said that? Nevermind, I knew I detected the unmistakable odor of cattle feces when I read this quote.

2011 NFL Draft Grades 16-20
Welcome back, Lunatics. After a month to reflect on it all, the Football Ranter will grade all 32 teams' drafts. There are two ratings for each team; the first is a general A to F scale and the second is a picture that the Football Ranter feels describes the team's draft.
When reading the grades, remember the following points: First, grading a draft a month after it happens is completely arbitrary. It takes three years to effectively evaluate a draft, so these grades are pure speculation. Second, grades are weighted by round a prospect is drafted in; lower rounds picks have historically been far, far less likely to become valuable NFL starters. Many will never even make a team out of training camp. Because of that, nailing the upper-round picks is far more important for a team than getting good value in the later rounds and we won't discuss late round picks unless something really weird happened.
Check out the grades for picks 16-20 after the jump. The earlier picks have been included in the post for ease of reference.

"When was the last time Urlacher got off a block?"
-Dhani Jones, Cincinnati Bengals' LB
"I think [Dhani Jones and I] were drafted in the same class, and I haven't heard anything about him since then. I saw him on a TV show with a bow tie on, though. So I know him better for the way he dresses than what he does on the football field."
-Brian Urlacher, Chicago Bears' LB
Oh SNAP! More twitter wars between players. I'm telling you, the longer the lockout lasts, the faster these guys are going to start turning on each other. Seriously though, Brian Urlacher is the third to last person on earth I would ever talk shit about. I mean, sure, if I wanted to have someone rip my face of, fold it up and wear it as a funny hat, I'd talk shit about Urlacher. Otherwise the only people I want to make angry less than him are the Hulk and Ray Lewis. You have to figure Ray Lewis is going to rip your dick off and club you to death with it, so that's definitely worse. Regrets, Dhani Jones. You have them.

As usual, the people who generate the nine billion dollar pay day for owners and players alike are completely neglected and taken for granted. One day these assholes will wake up and remember why there is such a thing as the NFL at all. The same people who sign their paychecks away to buy game tickets and jerseys for their kids are getting shat on every day this dispute continues. Maybe think about that guy too and get this fucking thing done. You owe us way more than that, Roger; but it's a start.

"I talked to a player who was contemplating retirement, but the lockout has gotten his body back to where it needs to be. For us older players, it's good."

By "I talked to another player" Roy meant, "I woke up and looked in the mirror," and by "us older players," he meant, "us players who suck." Can't blame him though. If I were going to be cut literally the second free agency opened, I wouldn't want the season to start either. Don't worry though, Roy. I'm sure Dez Bryant will gladly give you one of the million iced out necklaces he bought and then couldn't pay for. You've been stealing money from Jerry Jones for three years now just by cashing your game checks, so what's one necklace compared to that.

"I'll tell you how I dare, because I don't want to do it anymore. I don't have the passion to do it anymore. And so I walked away from it. And it rubbed people the wrong way."
-Tiki Barber
Waaah, I'm Tiki Barber and no one likes me! Waaah, I left my pregnant wife to fuck a 23 year old intern! Waaah I bashed the Giants and then they won the greatest Superbowl of all time without me! Hey, newsflash Tiki, of course no one fucking likes you. You're a scumbag who traded everything in their life for glory, then missed out on that glory on every level imaginable. Plus you were awful on television. Let's call a spade a spade here. This Tiki Barber redemption tour is about one thing and one thing only: straight cash, homie. Tiki is flat broke and no one wants to pay him to do anything except go the fuck away and leave the rest of us alone. Ipso facto, the Tiki Barber comeback tour.
You know what though, that's all OK. The only thing Tiki did wrong here was apologize. Let's go through the play by play, shall we? Tiki retired at age 31, an age when running backs typically fall off a cliff, after flat out raping and pillaging the NFL for five consecutive years. He was on top of the world, he had a post-NFL career planned out and he didn't want to risk major injury by coming back for one more year. Then he went on TV and bad mouthed the Giants and Eli Manning. Well guess what? Hindsight is 20/20, folks. If Asante Samuel remembers how to catch a football or David Tyree doesn't use his phone-a-friend direct line to god, then Tiki Barber is one hundred percent right in everything he said about that team. Finally, leaving his wife pregnant with twins wife to terrorize a 23 year old intern's vagina? Find me the man on earth that doesn't make the same choice in his shoes. "Hmm, let me think. Fat cow wife whose vagina is about to be so stretched I could walk around in there, or smoking hot 23 year old vag you couldn't swipe a credit card in? This has to be a trick question...it's too easy."
There you have it, nothing wrong with any of that. Tiki fucked up by not sticking to his guns and saying he was sorry for what he did. Nothing America hates more than a pussy who won't stand up for himself. This is the good old US of A, we don't tolerate pussies and communists, which may or may not be the same thing. Fuck yea Tiki Barber!

You'll have packs of roving gays ruling the streets, fucking people in the ass, throwing them in burlap sacks and marrying them against their will. Shit will be just like Dawn of the Dead, except instead of mobs of zombies trying to eat your brains, it'll be mobs of gay people trying to eat your dick. Somebody call Tank Johnson, we have to defend ourselves from the anarchy!

Quote of the Day: FRIDAY DOUBLE BONUS!
"After about an hour of discussing my current contract...[Giants' GM Jerry Reese] told me that two years from the start of the 2008 league year, if I was currently playing at a high level, we'd either renegotiate my current contract so that it would be equal to that of the top five defensive ends playing or I would be traded to a team that would do that. Before leaving the meeting, I asked Mr. Reese twice if he was absolutely sure that would be the case. He then told me that he was an honest and church-going man and that he would not lie, which I believed to be the case."
-Osi Umenyiora, NY Giants' DE
"Overrated n soft 3rd best d-line on his team honestly"
-Lesean McCoy, Philadelphia Eagles' RB, in response to Umenyiora's quote
Well nothing to see here, folks. Ho hum, just Osi griping about his contract for the million-bajillionth time and then getting his asshole shredded by a division rival on twitter. The only thing worse than that would be letting a division rival come back from being down 24 points in your building in less than eight minutes, but that could never happen. Let's be fair though, Osi had 11.5 sacks and 10, yes TEN forced fumbles this past year. Those are Dwight Freeney type numbers. Now the Football Ranter is not suggesting Osi is as good as Freeney. He's not. But defensive ends who put up those kind of numbers make fucking bank in the NFL and Osi's contract is definitely below market value. However, Osi spent all of the '08 season on IR, then spent all of '09 gargling camel semen as the Giants employed the famous "bend over, spread cheeks" defense. Not exactly the track record you look for when someone asks for a 70 or 80 million dollar contract. In essence, both of the above quotes stink.

Seriously though, if saying you want to be with your family, then taking them with you to Turning Stone Casino in upstate New York isn't a sign that 20 months in prison hasn't changed a fucking thing, I don't know is. Not to mention Plax was repeatedly reprimanded in prison for lying to guards and trying to get special treatment. So uhh...welcome home Plax?

Yea no kidding, Brandon. He only blew away the Giants' shot at a repeat championship by shooting himself in the leg with his own fucking gun.

Plaxico is gonna have to reload and head to Philly he can try to bust a cap in the Giants and not himself.

"Haynesworth's mistake was getting out of the car. Most judges don't like that, and find the person who gets out of the car bears more responsibility. From that point on, the stories diverge."
Haynesworth took $40 million in Redskins money to play, then refused to play because he didn't like the 3-4 defense. Then he reluctantly showed up to camp out of practice, overweight and under-motivated. This years after he stomped Dallas Center Andre Gurode's face in after a play. Also, he probably caused hurricane Katrina. But yea, getting out of the car was his mistake.
PS- one of the statements above may be an exaggeration.
