Tidbit ... I follow a ton of High School (Euless Trinity High school football). I was soooo glad to see the Jonathan kid graduate from Allen (Texas 6A State power house). He scored a lot in the playoffs & subsequent state titles... didn't follow him as much while at Arkansas though.

I hope he shows something at camp & good luck .

Re: Mark Ingram Suspended Four Games(Update: Appeal denied)

There is nothing to suggest that Ingram was purposely using PEDs to try to cheat. It could have easily been an accident. Airheaded yes, but tbh there are so many things on the list that it's incredibly easy to do. I've seen Ingram go out there and lay it all on the field week in, week out. This isn't the time to withdraw our support for the guy. All players have their issues. One thing I know for sure is that Mark bleeds black and gold. Being able to stick with these guys that give so much to the team even in their most trying moments is the hallmark of a strong and dedicated fan base. It is that sort of solidarity that wins championships.

While I agree wholeheartedly, there are those that relish in the opportunity to pounce upon any possible negative event to spread their venom.

And we all know who you are.

Well said. Extend the man for 4 more years. He’ll be around 31. You’ll have to pay Kamara anyway do MI’s contract will expire around the same time.

If the team feels he was screwed by the system, as it is beginning to sound, then he is in no danger.

Simply ask yourselves this:

WWBBD ... What Would Bill Belichek Do?


I think we all know the answer!
