NFL Weekend Playoff Game Reviews from Draftsharks
Tuesday Night LAP Dance
Leonard A. Pappano
January 11, 2011
** I honestly thought Jets HC Rex Ryan stuck his wife's foot in his mouth (Graaaar!) for calling out Colts QB Peyton Manning prior to their playoff clash. Ryan said the matchup was "personal." In the end, it looks like his (perhaps unintended) jab lit a fire under the Jets – but did nothing to motivate Manning. Ryan is at it again this week. But this time, Ryan said he's going after his New England counterpart. "I recognize that this week it's all about Bill Belichick vs. Rex Ryan," Ryan told reporters in New York Monday morning. "It's personal. It's about him against myself. That's what it's going to come down to. When you look at it, both teams are very even. Look at our players — solid across the board. Assistant coaches — we're on level ground. So this is going to be about me raising my level against Bill Belichick." I'm not sure if this is just a ploy – but I think Ryan's analysis is spot on. Too bad for Jets fans.
** Not to take anything away from the great run Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch had, but let me take something away. It looked like the Saints were trying to tackle ball instead of the runner. Understandably so – but that disqualifies the run as one of the best in NFL playoff history.
** The most surprising stat of Wild Card Weekend: Matt Hasselbeck's 4 TD passes against the Saints. Hass had tossed just 12 scores in 14 regular season games. While the Saints had allowed just 13 passing TDs all year. And that, folks, is how a 7-9 team defeats the defending Super Bowl champs.
** In case you missed the latest episode of "The League – A Fantasy Football Web Series," take a couple minutes to check it out. I was happy to get chance to write the script for this episode. There's a good twist to the plot!
** Back in August, I picked the Ravens and Packers to meet in Super Bowl XLV The Ravens figure to beat the Steelers in an upset, but I doubt they can get by the Patriots. At the moment, I think the Packers are the best team on paper in the NFC. This weekend will be a great 2 days of football.
** Speaking of Super Bowl picks, current NFL Network and FOX analyst Brian Billick believes the team he led to a Super Bowl 10 years ago, the Ravens, are capable of winning it all again this year. "I think they're the one team that can go in and beat New England," Billick said. Baltimore got off to a good start Sunday, completely dismantling the Chiefs. I think they'll surprise the Steelers, but winning in Pittsburgh and New England back-to-back weeks is a tall task. And before we give Billick too much credit, his pick to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl was the Eagles.
** An underreported fact: there has been a dramatic rise in concussions suffered by NFL fans who BANG THEIR HEADS AGAINST THE WALL after watching their teams botch time management and get stopped on 4th-and-inches. Note to all NFL coaches: 4th-and-inches = QB sneak. Stop over-thinking it. And while you're at it, please hire some MIT grad to explain to you the proper use of timeouts and clock management. I'm convinced most NFL fans could do a better job than the average NFL head coach.
** If the reported rumors surrounding the closing Fanball are true, it could mark the end of an era in the fantasy sports industry. liberty media, a multi-billion-dollar media conglomerate, acquired Fanball several years ago. Yes, I still long for the good old days when the industry was infused by small business owners with a passion for the hobby.
** Jets WR Braylon Edwards had his DWI court hearing moved from January 11 to March 7 by a Manhattan judge. The judge granted Edwards' request to delay the hearing after Edwards snared 4 catches for 62 yards in the Jets upset against the Colts. The Manhattan District Attorney's Office and Edwards' attorney confirmed that pushing back court dates is fairly common in the discovery phase of a trial – especially if you catch 4 balls for 62 yards against the Colts, and are facing the Patriots on January 16th.
** Who woulda thunk it?... In the 16 games Randy Moss played in 2010, his teams went a combined 5-11. Those same teams without Moss went 21-11. Draw your own conclusion there. Speaking of Mossless teams, without Randy Moss, the Patriots have gone back to the dink-and-dunk passing game that won them 3 Super Bowls in 4 years from 2002-2005. "They're not trying to get the ball downfield like they were," Patriots Hall of Fame QB Steve Grogan explained recently. "They've gone back to their roots — the way they played when they were winning Super Bowls." Brady won those previous titles with the likes of Troy Brown, David Patten, and David Givens. Is there any doubt that his current stable of horses --Wes Welker, Deion Branch, Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez -- is more talented?
** Could QB Tim Tebow be leaving Denver after just one season? Broncos new VP of Football Operations, John Elway, told NBC's Peter King that he doesn't think Tim Tebow "is a good quarterback at this level at this time." Elway went on damage control shortly after, saying he believes Tebow can turn himself into a great QB. Still, don't be shocked if is dangled this offseason. Possible destination? Wherever ex-Broncos HC Josh McDaniels lands.
** IDPers will want to keep an eye on the Texans this offseason. Recently-hired DC Wade Phillips plans on converting the defense from a 4-3 to a 3-4. That means big changes for DL Mario Williams and LBs DeMeco Ryans and Brian Cushing. Phillips is a defensive mastermind though, so look for all 3 guys to be put in position to make plays.
** The Pepsi Refresh Project will award $20 million in grants this year to people or businesses with initiatives that will have a positive impact on their communities. The mother of our very own Jared Smola had her idea for a summer reading program accepted. And now she needs our votes to take home the $50,000 prize to get the program started. To read about her idea and give her a vote, just click right here.
** An exciting weekend of NFL Playoff football was saddened by the presumed death of Ed Reed's brother. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Reed family.
Thanks,
Lenny Pappano

Scout Patches Are A Cherished Part Of The Scouting Experience
Scout patches, for many adults, conjure fond memories of their own time in Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts when they were children. That's part of what fuels the popularity of the hobby of collecting Scout patches today.
Collecting Scout patches, for those who once were Scouts themselves, can be a happy way to recall the joy of having earned their first Scout patches or merit badges in younger days. It's an easy way to recapture happy memories of childhood.
Others collect Scout patches just as part of a general collecting hobby, or because they find the artwork of the custom embroidered patches attractive. And for some collectors, it's all about the business of collecting.
Make no mistake, collecting Scout patches is a big business. One source estimates the value of Scout patches changing hands each year as a multi-million dollar business. Rare patches such as those issued by the Boy Scouts of America honor society Order of the Arrow, can sell for as much as $30,000.
But for the majority, Scout patches are more likely to remain part of a fun collecting hobby, not a way to make money. Collectors of Scout patches even gather at "trade-o-rees" to trade patches with each other.
Both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts use Scout patches or merit badges as symbols of achievement. They are a sign that the wearer has completed a series of tasks to reach a worthy goal. From youngest Brownies or Cub Scouts to adults, Scout patches can be worn with pride as signifiers of accomplishment.
Scouting focuses on the ideals of citizenship training, character development and personal fitness. The patches showcase significant achievements in any or all of these areas.
Boy Scout patches have been an integral part of the Boy Scouts of America since the organization's beginning. Scouts can earn merit badges in more than 100 categories, including areas such as theater, fly fishing, woodworking and many others. Adult leaders also can earn Scout patches for completing their own training requirements.
Scout patches are earned by Scouts pursuing areas that interest them at their own rate. When they complete the requirements for a particular category, they receive the merit badge for that category. Girl Scout patches, badges and insignia can be earned in the same way. They also are awarded for completing specific activities and programs.
Suppliers of Scout patches use state of the art custom embroidery equipment to create top quality patches. Computer-controlled precision embroidery machines create Scout patches in a uniform, well-made fashion that allows every detail to be seen clearly.
Patch providers today can produce many custom designs in addition to traditional Scout patches. They can use the same technology to produce custom patches for police officers, emergency medical personnel, firefighters and military units, for example. Scout patches are the same quality as the patches public service officials wear every day on their jobs.
Just as Scouting continues, so do Scout patches. Wherever Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts go, they're sure to take merit badges with them, no matter where the future takes them. Decades from now, Scout patches will still be a proud symbol of achievement and character.
