    Sad...I didn't realize he started his career as a Bull. The only thing I remember him for was being brought on to help control Dennis Rodman, him missing the entire season because of (i think) an injury, and then playing 7 minutes in the last game of the year. Yeah, I just remember him from the Rodman years, being a cheerleader/Scalabrine type end of the bench guy.

    Apparently Jack Haley died, per Scottie Pippen's twitter.

    Ha, point taken.

    Did he really just say Bryant is being "babied" because his sore shoulder caused some missed spring training at bats? Holy [expletive] someone exile this man from sports. He pretty much has been, which is why it was weird If you read the info at the bottom, it sounds like North is going to be getting a platform with the Herald on a pretty frequent basis though.

    Maurice Clarett (@ReeseClarett13) is making some good points on this topic today too.

    Brian Hartline also replied, questioning the assertion that NFL players only work for 6 months.

    I think Ufford was a little presumptuous to assume the military angle. The fact is there are much more dangerous jobs with much less compensation. I don't see what is so stupid about pointing it out. The media hysteria over concussions has gone a little overboard, but at the same time the water carrying of the NFL by Florio, Schefter, King and others have been gross. Not at all defending Ufford...he ws definitely presumptious. But Florio's first tweet was dumb, and then doubled down on it to "defend" himself.

    WTF....The Daily Herald is letting Mike North write dumb Cubs articles for them??? http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20150317/sports/150319106/

    Florio getting in on the stupid. Like it was pointed out on twitter....Schefter ignores criticism, while Florio doubles down on the stupid.

    A starting lineman at University of Michigan just left the team before his senior year. Not quite the same thing, but he was going to be a starter and might have had a shot at the NFL. I wonder if a small percentage of younger players are starting to get spooked by the long term health concerns Guys have voluntarily left the sport for health reasons for decades now. The expectation of becoming crippled and dying young has always been there. I think the headlines are a little different but I'm not sure how much the underlying story has changed. I don't recall one like this though. Without doing any research at all, it seems that most of the people that have left the sport have been around for a least a few years, and have had some kind of injury history leading up to it, like Patrick Willis, or just haven't had the expected success, like Jake Locker. This guy had one suspected, but undiagnosed concussion since joining the NFL a year ago and decided to quit based on fear of future injury. That seems to be very unique.

    Yep....really interesting decision. http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/12496480/san-francisco-49ers-linebacker-chris-borland-retires-head-injury-concerns I always figured the NFL would start having trouble with kids not growing up playing football due to concerns of parents, but didn't expect players to quit like this.

    Tebow worked out with the Eagles....

    I figured taking a random blog post at face value was a bit of a gamble.

    This is kinda interesting: http://news.nationalpost.com/2015/03/13/the-trials-and-tribulations-of-being-a-hockey-wife/ I don't feel super sorry for her or anything, but it's interesting.

    Did I see Riggleman on the Reds as a 1b coach? I still like that guy.

    I heard his nickname was Jim Hendry. Bam. Two at once. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvpqnmkH661qjd1l3.gif

    I don't know if you're joking or not here, but I think I'm behind this idea.
