Can a minor league team beat a pro team??
I think NOT.
As we near the halfway point of the NFL season, there is a slew of really bad NFL teams stinking up the joint. The 0-7 Tampa Bay Buccaneers obviously qualify. That means it's time for a bunch of delusional people to start making claims about how so-and-so could beat the Bucs. You know, college teams, "my rec league team," high school teams and, of course, UFL teams. Usually these claims are tongue-in-cheek, but Tatum Bell of the UFL's Florida Tuskers seems pretty serious. Michael Pittman, a running back for the Tuskers who used to play for the Bucs, said something about how some of his teammates probably thought they could beat the Bucs. Bell immediately said he was one of them. When given a hypothetical score of 24-14 (Tuskers over Bucs), Bell went a bit too far.
"That's how much credit you give our defense?" Bell said, smiling. "I see more than that. I see our offense putting up more than that and I see our defense shutting them down for less than that."Of course you guys could, Tatum. That's why you are playing in the UFL, not the NFL, right? By choice? It's good to be confident, but sometimes a little reality check would work.
Brandon Jennings.... The ANTI Antoine Walker
GOOD
After signing his rookie National Basketball Association contract worth nearly $4.5 million with the Milwaukee Bucks, Brandon Jennings could have walked into any dealership showroom in the city and driven away in something that said he'd arrived. BMW 7-Series. Cadillac Escalade. Lexus LS600H. Mercedes-Benz S-Class. None of those would do. So Jennings is the proud new owner of a . . .
. . . Ford Edge. Starting MSRP: $26,900.
"I probably saved $40,000," Jennings says proudly. "And who knows with the league? There might be a lockout in a couple years. I'm saving my money." Before you get the idea that Jennings is squarer than Scott Skiles' jaw, he laughs and adds, "It's a brand new car. It's a 2010. Hey, I fixed it up a little bit. I put some rims on it and tinted the windows."
Jennings also could have picked anywhere to live in metropolitan Milwaukee. Mequon. River Hills. A downtown condo, perhaps? Not good enough. The kid from Compton, Calif., one of the most dangerous cities in the United States, is living in the working-class bedroom community of St. Francis. Why? It's just a half-mile walk to the Bucks' practice facility at the Cousins Center. And he's got a great view of Lake Michigan. Jennings, a 20-year-old point guard who didn't play college basketball and was just 19 when the Bucks made him the 10th pick in the NBA draft, is pretty level-headed. Not that he hasn't had his share of youthful indiscretions. Calling Spanish sensation Ricky Rubio "all hype" might be a valid opinion, but not one best shared in public. Then there was the obscenity-laced blog cam conversation Jennings had with a rapper friend - the player thought it was private - that showed up on YouTube, much to his chagrin.
