Julio Jones Could Come Cheap With A Rookie Wage Scale In Place

34

You know, if ever there were a year to spend a truckful of draft picks on one player, it would probably be the first year of a rookie-wage-scale'd new CBA. Comrade not only bicycles up mountains without need of a bicycle, he also senses the rhythms of the globe's financial markets years in advance. Domonique Foxworth ('member him?) thinks the Falcons will be good this year. This is great, but mainly because he plays for the Ravens, and Ravens fans talk about nothing but Matt Ryan from 6 am ET until 6 pm ET, when they break for supper and to research Joe Flacco's statistics again. The NFL wants Thursday night football in every week of the season, and Atlanta's Turner Broadcasting wants the rights. Jessie Tuggle was inducted into the Atlanta Sports Hall of Fame, while Atlantan Morten Andersen was accidentally inducted into some other hall of fame on the other side of the world. And finally, I'd like to extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who felt the need to inform me Landon Donovan is not actually doing the Dirty Bird in this video/GIF multimedia experience.
