    It's going to be a great time and a first for us to bring in our community to where the action is going to be.  I'll be in LA Sunday through Tuesday, Derek who'll be running the @ea feed will be in LA Thursday and my man @dewiel will be picking things up next week.

    Make sure you are all following us so we can give you the exact times when we'll be live with the athletes.  

    And, sure, I'll see if I can get Serena to pull a prank on her sis.  ;)

    that is ridiculious that matt stafford is getting so much money, his the 4th richest player in the nfl, the only people that get more than him are peyton manning, tony romo, and big ben....... and yes matt gets more then tom brady and matt ryan, they need to add a salary cap on rookies b/c you got these guys just coming right in the nfl already have enough money for 10 years while the veterans worrking their butts off to get 20 million guarenteed

    bascially what the nfl is doing to the rookies is making them trash b/c giving these rookies so much money they dont have nothing to prove, because if they work hard its not like they gonna get extra money but if they start out with 15 million guarnteed and not 41 million guarenteed they'll feel like they'll have something prove, and if they become a bust the organization want be losing money but if his a bust they lost alot of money

    and giving a true rookie like matt stafford who really didnt do nothing major in college that much money is a shame all he did was threw for 3000 or 4000 yards with 25 TDs and 11 ints, i believe graham harrell should of been a 1st rounder because he did better than matt and mark sanchez this year and last year

    graham harrell threw for 5000 yards with 48 TDs and 8 ints, and by giving rookies so much money your putting a heck of alot of pressure on these rookies, and just because they did good in college doesnt mean he is in nfl, because nfl and college are to diffrent things, in college you play against freshman, sopohmore, juniors, and seniors and some of them play just to play for the school and some already know they arent going to the nfl

    but on the other hand the nfl has more fit guys who been playing for 10 plus years and they played college football and your playing against the best players because in college you play against some trash players but in the nfl you dont play against no trash players, people might call somebody sorry in the nfl but they arent because if they were they wouldnt be in the nfl

    so what i'm saying is nobody knows what any rookie can do in the nfl because college and the nfl or too diffrent things even if they did good in college doesnt mean they are going to do good in the nfl so dont give a rookie that much money, and plus he hasnt worked to earn nothing he already has a manshion, benz, rolls royce, etc. so theres no need to work any harder
