This is a practice started in 1976 by Paul Salata, a former NFL player, who coined the term Mr. Irrelevant. The title is awarded to the player who is the last selected player in the NFL Draft. More often than not, Mr. Irrelevant turns out to be exactly that “irrelevant”! However, sometimes, even though their selecting teams end up cutting them they do break into the team and have to have long careers, with varying degrees of success. Here is a football scoreboards list of the Mr. Irrelevants from the last 6 years, and a glimpse at how their careers have turned out:

In a football scoreboards feature, I have reviewed the latest goings on in the NFL labor dispute.

The dispute (fight, battle, war…everything fits!) is over the contract/agreement between the NFL franchise owners and the NFL Players Association. To say that the owners and the NFLPA don’t like each other would be like saying that the Cowboys and Redskins are friendly!

However, if you don’t know what the dispute is about, or simply don’t know all the details, let me fill you in!

The best offense is a good defense…or is it the best defense is a good offense? Football is a game where this particular saying doesn’t always matter because no matter how good your offense is, if your defense isn’t stopping the other team from gaining ground then it’s a moot point and vice versa! Therefore, it is safe to say that both aspects of the game are complementary and not substitutes of the other. With that in mind, in a football scoreboards feature, I have taken a look at the best quarterbacks. A team’s offense is only as good as its quarterback and his leadership!
