Welcome to the silly season, NFL fans

Welcome to football’s silly season.

The games are footnotes to history. The players are scattered across the continent. Some have too much time. Some have too much money. And, for a few, it adds up to way too much trouble.

So far nobody has shot themselves in the foot like Plaxico Burress but, hey, the off-season is young and Kenny Britt is just warming up.

He spent the weekend detained by police after hauling a friend with stab wounds into a hospital ward.

His lawyer says it’s all a misunderstanding. But, then, isn’t it always.

This is the ninth time Britt has been involved in a “misunderstanding” with the law.












Is first round pick Eric Fisher a decent choice by the Kansas City Chiefs?
  Yes.
  No.
  He has to prove himself before I decide.
