Half of all 2005 5-Star Recruits Have Been Arrested
Of the same class of 5-Star recruits (based on Rivals ratings), only 11 were drafted into the NFL. Unreal. In 2005, Rivals.com ranked 28 men as five-star football recruits. The players were the cream of the crop, the top football … Continue reading
Browns QB Job is Quinn’s to Lose

Ty Willingham Gets Paid Millions of Dollars Per Year? To WHAT?!!??!?!
Well, we knew it wouldn’t take long. Wouldn’t take Ty long to find a respectable position where he could use his vast golf knowledge in a new and challenging role. A role that is worthy of his history, that would … Continue reading
HLS Tweets for the Week of 2009-05-08

@HerLoyalSons asks @NDHFC about… Star Trek!
Continuing our new weekly series of thus-far unrequited tweets to Charlie Weis, HLS seeks to gain some insight into Coach Weis’ leadership philosophy by asking… @NDHFC, best Star Trek captain? I can’t decide between Kirk’s swashbuckler and Picard’s renaissance man. … Continue reading
