Remember how I said I would update this thing more often? In fact, I said that in the post right before this one.
Guess what?
I still haven't kept my word.
It's not that there's nothing interesting to talk about -- it's moreso the fact that there's far too much to talk about, and not enough time to touch on them all.
(Heh...heh...I said "touch on them"...)
So...this gets updated whenever it gets updated.
That is all.
(I just wasted maybe 30 seconds of your time...even less if you're a speed-reader, or were only skimming. Cheater.)

I'm slacking...
So...it's been a while since I've written regularly in here, and I wanted to make this a regular thing.
At first, outside obligations got in the way. But, now that it's summer and there's nothing better to do with all this time on my hands, I should probably be updating this more. Even though no one really reads this...LOL.
Anyway, so I'll probably have days where I'm updating with content, back-to-back...just 'cause I feel like it.
Screw doing things with moderation.
(That didn't sound right)

Top 25 NFL Running Backs
In response to an ESPN feature on the NFL's Top 64 Running Backs ranking each team's projected starter and backup, I compiled my own Top 25 NFL RB List.
I didn't include rookies, specifically because they have no body of work in the NFL on which they can be judged. This list is essentially my ranking of the running backs which I'd feel comfortable having as my starter if I were an NFL head coach or GM.
(ESPN/Scouts Inc. ranking in parentheses)
1) LaDainian Tomlinson - SD (1)
2) Adrian Peterson - MIN (2)
3) Brian Westbrook - PHI (4)
4) Steven Jackson - STL (3)
5) Willis McGahee - BAL (12)
6) Willie Parker - PIT (13)
7) Larry Johnson - KC (5)
8) Clinton Portis - WSH (9)
9) Joseph Addai - IND (6)
10) Maurice Jones-Drew - JAX (14)
11) Marion Barber - DAL (8)
12) Ronnie Brown - MIA (19)
13) Fred Taylor - JAX (11)
14) Thomas Jones - NYJ (24)
15) Chester Taylor - MIN (26)
16) Frank Gore - SF (7)
17) Edgerrin James - ARI (21)
18) Laurence Maroney - NE (18)
19) Jamal Lewis - CLE (15)
20) Deuce McAllister - NO (33)
21) DeAngelo Williams - CAR (27)
22) Justin Fargas - OAK (31)
23) Ladell Betts - WSH (52)
24) LaMont Jordan - OAK (49)
25) Travis Henry - N/A (36)
