More trouble on the home front

Devin Hester, a two time pro-bowler and NFL record holder has refused to show up to Bears training camp.

Can you guess how much money he makes in the NFL? I would hold out too.....I still <3 Devin but this sucks for the fans.

This just in...

Jason Taylor has been traded to the Redskins. Can Jason dance the Skins to another playoff birth? By the way, I think Jason tries a little bit too hard to be sexy. The first pic of him is hilarious.

Just For the Ladies

The Pass Him Over Here Hottie of the Week

The Rams haven’t been hot since Christina Aguilera’s What a Girl Wants topped the Billboard charts but Steven Jackson did run for 1,002 yds in the 2007 season. So this sexy man is the Hottie of the Week. Ooh La La.

PCL Question of the Day

Are the Jacksonville Jaguars underrated?

You Drink & Drive. You Get Cut (A message from the Texas Department of Transportation)

Bon voyage Cedric Benson! I cried the day Thomas Jones was traded to the Jets. The day Cedric Benson was cut I cried TEARS OF JOY. It was one of the happiest days of my life because TJ got the last laugh. The first time Benson was arrested I reluctantly gave him the benefit of the doubt. The second time Benson was arrested I knew it was all over. Needless to say Ced isn’t bringing sexy back with his mug shot. Maybe Ced should try downloading the Blood Alcohol Level application onto his iPhone.

As for the Bears…my team will be OK but there's a lot of work that needs to be done and someone has to step up (hint hint Matt Forte). The Bears also have a new Jones in town and while he’s not as sexy as my hubby TJ, it doesn’t hurt to have him on the team.

Hot Guys

Shhhhhh don’t tell anybody but I’m madly in love with Adrian Peterson from the Viks. I feel guilty saying this being a Bears fan but the man is gorgeous and I have a special place in my heart for running backs. Thomas Jones will forever be my football king but Adrian is my prince in shining armor( and yes I'm twelve). Maybe I can put on my beer goggles and look at Chicago’s AP as if he was the Viks’ AP. I’ll let you know how that goes….And just for the record, I am not a Viks fan and I only love Adrian Peterson when he’s NOT playing against the Bears. I can’t deny his looks or talents but my loyalties are still with the home team.

On to more hot guys. My new crush of the 2008 football season is Ovie Mughelli from the Atlanta Hawks. He has such a cute smile and his body is…well I’ll let you be the judge. Plus this guy stays involved in his community. I love men that give back.

Box of Chocolates

Pinks Cleats is BACK! And yes I’ve been a little bit lazy so feel free to post any of your complaints but the blog is up and running again and this season I will be getting some help from a few of my lovely friends.

Alright then, let’s talk about some football. Darren McFadden was the talk of town on draft day but to be honest I don't think that he'll have a spectacular season. Yes, it’s a pretty bold statement but everyone can’t be Adrian Peterson. A lot of college football players don’t have the same success in the big league. Look at Patrick Ramsey, Rashard Anderson and the newest member of the bust family, Cedric Benson. Nothing is guaranteed in the NFL and I hope Darren understands the challenge that lies ahead of him. Maybe Darren McFadden will prove me wrong and I hope that he does for the sake of the Raiders fans. However, only time will tell and if Mr. McFadden does have a breakthrough season I will send him a handwritten letter of apology with my phone number written at the bottom.

Regardless of whether Darren McFadden does well, my point is this: things aren’t always what they seem in the NFL. Teams that made it to the playoffs last year will miss the cut this year. First round draft picks will struggle while second round draft picks will break NFL records. Get ready for some surprises. It’s going to be a circus (and yes I do have my popcorn ready). The 2008 NFL regular season is almost upon us.
