It seems that NFL players are just not
taking the hint from Roger Goodell. In addition to
PacMan's latest incident, Nick Barnett of the Packers was arested last night after a fight at a night club, and Jonathan Vilma of the Jets has said publicly that he frequents high stakes "poker dens" with "serious gamblers" that are prone to raids and robberies. Not...taking...the hint.
Happy Friday, folks. This guy's name is Jonathan
Vilma. He's a middle linebacker for the New York

the block in New York, and has been allowed
to seek trades. Will the Jets get whatever they want in return for the 4-3 MLB even if he is coming off an injury?

Trades LB – Jonathan Vilma to Saints –
This is the worst move by the Jets since
drafting Kyle Brady over Warren Sapp. They are trading away one of the best Linebackers in the game for a 4th round pick and a possible 3rd and 4th next year. Why trade this young, fast and extremely talented LB? He didn’t fit the system? When you have a player as talented as Vilma you make the system fit him.
