Colts Convince Kerry Collins To Come Out Of Retirement

With not knowing if Peyton Manning will be ready for the opener the Indianapolis Colts signed Kerry Collins to a contract. Collins had retired earlier in the year, but was convinced to come back by the Colts. Collins did have to get the green light from his wife though to make the comeback.

Kerry Collins give them a capable backup just in case Peyton Manning cannot go. Collins has played for Carolina, the New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, Oakland Raiders and Titans in 16 seasons. He has thrown for 40,441 yards with 206 touchdowns and 195 interceptions and was a two-time Pro Bowler (1996 and 2008). If Manning is not ready you have Collins which helps the Colts out to get the season started out on the right foot. It also gives Manning more time to heal if he needs that as well.

Can Terrelle Pryor Help The Raiders?

It should not come as a shock that Terrelle Pryor went to the Raiders in the third round of the NFL supplemental draft. People can say what they want about Pryor, but he is a talented young man. His judgement in college at times was bad, but a fresh start is probably what he needs. The Oakland Raiders are a good fit for Pryor for a few different reasons. Let us look at why this is a good fit for Pryor and the Raiders.

First the Raiders need stability at quarterback which is something they have not had in a very long time. Pryor can give that to them. He also can become the face of the franchise which is what the Raiders need as well. Pryor can become a leader and will lead by example which is important as well. Given time he can become a good quarterback and someone the Raiders can build around. The key is not too rush him and let him learn how to play NFL quarterback.

Many people might compare him to JaMarcus Russell, but it's not even close. If Pryor is given the time to develop he will become a very good NFL quarterback. The key will be if the Raiders gives him the time he needs. I think this is a good fit for both parties involved.

Kyle Busch Loses License For 45 Days For Speeding

Kyle Busch speeds away from his competition on the racetrack, but in a North Carolina Courtroom his speeding cost him his license for 45 days. He also was given $1,000 dollar fine, placed on a year of unsupervised probation and ordered to do 30 hours of community service with the B.R.A.K.E.S. (Be Responsible and Keep Everyone Safe) program that he already had committed to with NHRA star Doug Herbert.

On May 24 Kyle Busch was charged going 128 mph in a 45 mph speed zone on a rural road near Mooresville, N.C. It seems Kyle Busch forgot that on the race track there are basically no rules, but on the public road there happens to be. Now with this ruling hopefully Busch can put this behind him and move on.

Does The Miami Hurricanes Deserve The Death Penalty?

Well, as more comes out it seems the Miami Hurricanes will probably be the second school to receive the NCAA's death penalty. Do they deserve it? I guess it all depends on which side of the fence you are on, but with as many people who knew about it how can you avoid it. The problem with the Miami Hurricane's program is it has been crooked for years and everyone has known this for some time. It is a surprise to me it has taken so long for them to get caught.

Miami football had been one of the elite programs and now we all know why many of the top players came to Miami. It was not just for the football, but all the extras that were given to top players. Now I am sure not every player got things, but the majority did. The death penalty will kill this program, and I do not know if they would be able to survive. I am sure they will get a severe penalty, but Hurricane fans are hoping they escape the death penalty as SMU really has never fully recovered from it.
