We're back, and so is Osi Umenyiora, who told the AP on Sunday night that he would return to New York Giants practice Monday and play under the terms of the contract he hates. This was already in the works at the end of last week, as Umenyiora seemed...

Well, it was fun to watch some football, wasn't it? At least for the first halves of the games, when there were players in there you could imagine playing on Sundays this fall. Good for the NFL for solving that pesky labor dispute and getting the pre...

And a good morning to you all. Lovely one here in northern New Jersey as I head back to Giants camp for another day of interviews there. When I arrive, I expect to find the team ... looking pretty much the same as it did Wednesday. Yeah, Steve Smi...

Good morning to all. Your links are piping hot and ready. Come and get 'em. Dallas Cowboys I'd say at this point that Kevin Ogletree has an opportunity to be a factor in the passing game. And if that's the case, you'll surely want to know about...

Morning. I trust everyone had a pleasant weekend and is ready to roll. We are three days away now from the first NFL preseason games, and less than five weeks now from the first NFL regular-season Sunday of the year. How will we pass the time? Well, ...

Aaaand, we're back. By the midday, the NFL's new labor deal should be approved and we'll have a schedule of events for what should turn out to be a wild week. There are reports very early Monday morning that suggest free agency could open as early...

See, to me, this can only be a good sign. The fact that the NFLPA would ask commissioner Roger Goodell -- and that he would agree -- to speak to rookies at the rookie symposium the NFLPA is having in lieu of the one the league canceled because of the...

Our position-by-position series on potential four-year unrestricted free agency in the NFC East took the weekend off, but it's back, baby, and better than ever with a look at the defensive tackle position. NFC East teams in need Redskins: Not s...

See, how it works is, you e-mail the questions, I sort through them, delete all the profane and insulting ones and answer the ones I think are the most interesting. A democracy? No. Just a lil' ol' weekend mailbag. tmcsfinest from Toronto thrilled...

Morning. Tuesday sure was an optimistic day on the NFL labor front. Personally, I don't think there's any chance this many details of the proposed deal would be emerging if the proposal weren't pretty close to a sure thing. So the time could be drawi...

Wow. Good morning everybody. Sorry if I'm a little out of it today. I was waiting up all night in the comments from Monday's Snee post for teamdirtstar to get back to me on that Eagles draft thing. Still waiting, but at least now, while I wait, I can...

The most important thing, it appears, in trying to figure out where Terrelle Pryor ends up in the NFL is to dispense with the notion that he must be a quarterback -- especially right away. Drew Rosenhaus can make all of the Cam Newton comparisons he ...

Morning, all. Lockout's still on, but the rampant speculation and analysis train rolls along. Santana Moss gave a radio interview in Washington and said he'd like to return to the Redskins if they'll have him back: "That's the only thing I can thi...

Yeah, it's close. Frankly, I think it's a lot closer than the early voting on our Fired-up Friday poll indicates. I'm thinking maybe the Eagles fans all got to the poll first and the gap will close as Cowboys and Giants fans work to help their teams ...

New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin may have taken a page from the Bobby Knight playbook when he advised his critics to kiss his posterior following the final game of the season, but now he needs to back up his tough talk. Coughlin's job security came...

In case you missed it, New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw said his ankle surgery went "great" over the weekend. And depending on what happens with the new collective bargaining agreement, there's a good chance that Bradshaw will be an unrest...
