He is averaging just four receptions for 58

Besides, it would be a good excuse to evaluate where Leinart is at this point. Additionally, the Cards play the late game, so your options are limited if Warner is a late-decision scratch. Eli Manning, QB, New York Giants Eli is coming off a monster game and the Broncos are reeling. Despite their offensive woes, their defense can still get after it. In their four-game losing streak they are allowing just 195.3 passing yards per game. LeSean McCoy, RB, Philadelphia Eagles McCoy rebounded from a crucial fumble to score the winning TD for the Eagles against the Bears last week. This week he faces the Washington Redskins unit that has allowed just five rushing TDs on the season.

Plus, McNabb is more pass-happy at home with seven TDs in three games versus seven in five road games. Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers Mendenhall has been a fantasy savior this year, but faces Baltimore on the road, who is ranked fifth in rushing yards allowed, and tied for eight in rushing TDs allowed. This is a must-win for both teams, and I’m afraid points and yards will be hard to come by. Steve Smith, WR, Carolina Panthers Fresh off of holding Randy Moss to 34 yards, Darrelle Revis gets to lock horns with the original Steve Smith Smith has not been as effective on the road either. He is averaging just four receptions for 58.6 yards with one TD in five games.Originally published at LestersLegends ..

But as a fiduciary, to take on a $4 million liability plus hiring a new coach Given the economic times were in, there would have to be an awfully compelling case. Indeed, UMD would have a difficult time justifying to the Baltimore Sun and Washington Post why the State of Maryland has to shell out $4 million to buy out Friedgen, $1 million to get rid of his successor James Franklin, and somewhere between $2-4 million to name a suitable replacement.If theres anyone who should come under scrutiny for firing, its UMD athletic director Debbie Yow. Not because shes done a particularly bad job, but because her two major money-making programs are annually under fan and media siege for questions about recruiting and how competitive Maryland should be, at least in the ACC.Both Friedgen and Gary Williams, truth be told, shouldve been fired two years ago. Both were in the throes of underachievement, and both coaches had not legitimate explanation for the sudden downturn.Sure, there wouldve been brushback from Terrapin Nation, but most fans would rather begin the rebuilding process than wonder every year about what couldve been, and who they couldve had besides Teflon Gary and Ralph.So yeah, Ralph is staying for a while His contract demands it. But if Maryland was smart, the school would recognize that the architect of these bulletproof contracts is slightly more expendable and consider cutting ties with Debbie Yow.

If reports are true that a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight will be worth $150 million, then why should the percentages of sharing an issueIs this too much greed on the part of the fighters, handlers, and hangers I need some time to suck it in.For superstar fighters, it’s some kind of "ego-istic" that they wanted the bigger share.It seemed like they have taken the first round of the fight if they get the percentage that they wanted.They think that they’re the one who are more popular, more superior, fighter of the masses, generates more money, and economically important.Understanding the situation is simple, actually.The fighters are missing the point that the larger piece of the pie really doesn’t matter if they can have half of the pie factory for each of them.It would be bigger than the normal that they usually have.If the budget is around $30 million, then it’s understandable that each man wants to jockey for position to earn more profit. Who doesn’t want to be settled for the rest of their lives, but $150 million Come on! That’s plenty of money for even two lifetimes.Having a 50-50 split on $150 million is way better than having a 60-40 split on $30 million.Agreeing to fight on equal terms will be the biggest purse for both fighters, and the biggest one in the history of the sport of boxing.Perhaps the biggest amount that an athlete can be paid for in a day at a major sporting event.Imagine, $75 million for each fighter But there’s more…There’s no doubt that the fight would be a pay-per-view hit.Assuming, there’ll be three million subscribers at $55 per pop. That’s a whopping $165 million!That’s $82.5 million for HBO, $41.25 million for the promoters, and an additional $20.6 million more on both fighter's gross.They could make an incredible $95.6 million! Would you believe that! No one's gotten paid for a single day with that amount.When negotiations start for the fight there will be a lot of trash talking from the Mayweather posse and from Pacquiao’s camp, but they have to keep in mind that machismo is inside the ring and not on the negotiating table.Quit thinking that the superior fighter gets the lion’s share if both fighters can buy their own jungles.Never mind previous pay-per-view buys in the US, if the whole world will actually watch them.All the fans want is for this mega event to happen next year while both fighters are still at their peaks.Strike whilst the iron is hot.Stating these assumed, or should I say fantastical figures, is like selling something on Home Shopping Network.
