So Sue Me! BSR Roundup, June 26th

June 26, 2008

– A federal judge has given a New York Jets season-ticket holder more time to amend a lawsuit that seeks millions from the New England Patriots and coach Bill Belichick for “deceiving customers” by videotaping opponents’ signals.

– Failed comedian and social commentator Don Imus’ recent comments about Adam Jones may have killed whatever chance he had of regaining advertisers lost after he was fired by CBS. Proof that sometimes stupidity doesn’t pay.

Jones Creating a Good Kind of Frustration

June 19, 2008

The team’s web site reports that Adam Jones took some plays at right cornerback and that Anthony Henry was “frustrated” by his reduced reps.

Wade Phillips downplayed any controversy, saying the team was trying out different options and that Henry was going to be kept at corner “as long we [the team] can.”

I can’t see any reason for concern. Henry might not like it, but:

  • he’s under contract for two more years;
  • he’s been injury prone, so working out a quality backup at RCB simply looks like Dallas conducing due diligence to me;
  • somebody has to play right corner when Henry is lining up in the slots on passing downs.

I see no downside to this. Get Henry revved up and get even better play from him. You may have noticed that Anthony Spencer caused Greg Ellis to do some big time pouting but he also inspired Ellis to a career-high in sacks last year.

Competition never hurt anybody.
