Rookie Brawling

Well, as the title indicates, there has been some unrest with rookies as of late, specifically those involved with the Baltimore Ravens. 85 rookie players were involved in a brawl in practise the other day, and it all stemmed from RB Allen Patrick being slammed down on a routine play up the middle. Now, I'm all for squabbles, but if you are Coach John Harbaugh, you had better get control fast.

In other news, two high-profile rookies were injured at Giants mini-camp this weekend. WR Mario Manningham and QB Andre Woodson both left the field with leg injuries, and are unsure when they will return. This does not bode well for either player, as they fell in the draft, and need to fight for a roster spot.

The Cowboys are well on their way to acquiring yet another troubled player. WR Chris Henry has apparently been sought after by a number of teams, and it looks as though the Cowboys may sign him. The question will be, whether or not he is able to play this season, after more troubles with the law. Could this be the reason the Cowboys did not use a draft pick on a receiver?

New England Patriots videographer Matt Walsh has handed over his tapes from the past seasons to the NFL. They did not include any of the Rams practising before the Super Bowl in 2002. But really, if you were being investigated by the NFL, would you hand over the tape that would seal your fate? I didn't think so....
