If Marvin Lewis didn’t have his hands full before, he sure does now. After reportedly inking a two-year, $2 million deal with the Bengals you can now add Terrell Owens’ name to the laundry list of reclamation projects holding court in the Queen City. The Queen City? Cincinnati has become more like Celebrity Rehab: NFL Edition.

It’s been a while since I’ve taken the time to hammer out another Bush League Debate, but something occurred yesterday that is perfect for this sort of thing, so it’s time to bring it back.

Last week, both sides of the NFL labor situation had their say on where they stand. What NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith and NFL executive VP Jeff Pash said provided interesting theater for what is by far the most compelling storyline heading into this season. Take a listen.

The legal system in this country is far from perfect; they don’t always get it right and is wrong quite a bit more than the public would like. But every so often a monumental ruling is passed down that rectifies these wrongs and makes us all once again believe that our judicial system is the best in the world. Yesterday was one of those days.

The Phillies’ 2010 season has gone a bit differently than their 2008 and 2009 campaigns. The team has been decimated by injuries, some guys have flat out not shown up, and the National League has gotten noticeably better. It also doesn’t help that they’ve played two completely full seasons, having made it to back-to-back World Series. They’re tired, and beat up, and time is running out. So, with all of that in mind, I’ve got some rants and wake up calls to dole out one by one.

I got sent this link by Jacober last night and had to post today. You’ve heard about the Lebron-fires that have been going on, and you already know about the breakup letter between Dan Gilbert and Lebron. They are nothing compared to this video. Makes me want to get into video editing.

“Where can I buy a Jobu doll?” Go ahead, type it into Google right now. You’ll find endless forums of people trying to find one. Then go over to eBay, there must be some there right? Wrong. Simply put, it’s the Holy Grail of sports memorabilia. I’ve been searching for years, but to no avail. Then, just when things seemed hopeless, I came into contact with a man named Eric Councell.

For the first time in almost 17 years the Devils have changed their philosophy. There was no press conference or news release, no formal announcement or interview announcing it, but it’s written all over the 17-year contract that winger Ilya Kovalchuk signed today.
