Think Givens plays like he did his rookie year?

I'm not sure either. They have done studies and I'm sure they have some sort of statistical data.
Well the injury rate in football is 100%.
So maybe they should change the name to something else.

Have there been many injuries during kickoffs or returns? Because I can't recall a single one right now.
Pead? I think he kinda injured himself though. Non contact as I recall...

Here are all of Givens' plays, you can search for them on NFL Replay, they put preseason in. However, there is one missing, for some reason the 2013 Atl-Stl game won't load.

Anyway, you can see he's got speed, can get open . . . let's hope we can get a few of these this season

this also includes PI penalties

That play left 11 towns without electricity?

Holy crap. lol.

(listen to the background voice as it starts)
yeah, there was another page playing audio and snagit picked up both sounds . . .I wish I knew of a higher resolution program to record, but this one does low res and gets point across even if it picked up sound from other pages. glad it wasn';t porn

Damn. I wish it was porn.

Have you tried WM Capture 7?
That's what I use.

And it gave me an idea, I could turn down sound on NFL replay and play Sam Spence music from Youtube to get an NFL Films sound.

I've always like Gibson .... he showed a ton his rookie year. They have to use him to take the top off but also on this little hitch passes and the digs

He is someone the defense has to pay attention to when the Rams have a QB who can stretch the field

No joke. I also enjoyed watching the QB get hit. Not maliciously, but defenders weren't going in scared. They watered down football. I understand why because of lawsuits, but the game isn't as good because of it.

Maybe Vince McMahon was on to something.

Well his "sport" is pretty watered down too due to lawsuits. They have gone PG and it isn't as good as it used to be. (Did I just admit to everybody I'm a wresting fan?)

The NBA has gone soft too. It's not as good as it was and a bunch of flopping pansies play the game now.

I'm only 28. I'm way too young to be griping about this generation being soft, aren't I?

No, I'm talking about when he invented the XFL.

I don't know how many there have been, but the injuries that have occurred tend to be particularly gruesome. I recall at least a number of guys being paralyzed at the collegiate level over the last couple decades, which I'm sure informed the NFL's decision.

From 2011 but you get the idea...
