Dirtlocker points for: Alge Crumpler, Bobby Petrino

During the 2007 season, Falcons tight end Alge Crumpler publicly complained that then-coach Bobby Petrino was trying to phase out veteran players. Now, the team is merely tossing them to the curb. Crumpler has been released by the Falcons. He was signed through 2010, and due to earn $3.4 million in base salary in 2008. In addition to [...]

Dirtlocker points for: Jake Plummer, Bobby Petrino, Brian Cashman

Former University of Michigan Quarterback Ryan Mallett is appealling the NCAA for immediate eligibility. Mallett, his family and apparently the University of Arkansas believe he should play instead of sitting out one year after transferring as per NCAA rules. Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long

8 Coaches Who Are Also Douchebags (via Ball Hype)

Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 +0100

Dirtlocker points for: Bill Belichick, Jim Mora, Bobby Petrino

Coach's teach their players about teamwork, discipline and toughness. It's their job to serve as a role model to inspire those around them to leave it all out on the field. But instead, these coaches only inspire us to laugh at them when they act like spoiled brats. Whether its sucker-punching players, fighting each other or whining about the media, these coaches are great big bags of Massen...

Dirtlocker points for: Bill Parcells, Bobby Petrino, Mike Smith (Coach)

The Atlanta Falcons have taken a page from George McFly. They're just not sure they can take the rejection. How else can anyone explain the decision to offer the head-coaching job to Jags defensive coordinator Mike Smith before getting a shot at talking to Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo? With Bobby Petrino, Bill Parcells, and Jason Garrett [...]

Fantasy Football 2007: The Atlanta Falcons (via Yardbarker)

Dirtlocker points for: Michael Vick, Roddy White, Bobby Petrino

This was not a good year for the Dirty Birds. The misfortunate commenced with the Michael Vick, and his eventual plea bargain leading to jail time, rather than game time. Having watched football for many years, I have heard of players quitting on teams, but never a coach quitting mid-season, but that's exactly what first year head-man Bobby Petrino did with 3 games remaining. The 2007 edition o...
