One thing I learned last year, is that the easiest content to make is one that owners make on their own. With that being said, this is our league-wide content, NFL Primetime. This thread will be used by all owners to report the latest news and rumors surrounding their team. Contract re-signings, injuries, smack talk, super bowl guarantees, player cuts, etc all belong here! This will make a fun timeline that we can read and document the biggest league storylines, all in one place! Here is our thread from M13, and i think it turned out great: http://forums.traditionsportsonline.com/threads/m13-nfl-today.91959/ oneshot24 - NE GDip - DEN Hitmhrd72 - JAX whatspeakyou - CHI nellycuz - PIT Snake Eyez - CIN Anthrax78 - DET The Rulah - Was SmashMouthFB33 - STL mmorgan184 - CLE AwaLL - MIA Coachmedicis - BUF Crowe - SF BrewBomber - GB Chief9 - NYJ nicknick68 - NYG LeGeNd RiPs - BAL Automatik - AZ Wiznerd420 - MIN Elemnt - CAR BE5T NAME EVER - TB lere2001 - PHI priestmvp - KC jay2149 - ATL GritzBlitz - NO Craig Brown - IND NateDawg - SD SFRANGER6969 - SEA Brandon S. - HOU Aspect1 - OAK RRAHx2 - DAL Cole Springer - TEN
Jones Sells America's Most Valuable Team, Record-Setting Price In a shocking announcement, the Cowboys' long-time owner, Jerry Jones, has sold the most valuable sports franchise in the nation. The news broke this morning after Jerry Jones was seen, being escorted out of Cowboys' Stadium by stadium security. Jones' sale of the Cowboys has caused mixed emotions in Cowboys' fans. Most are just happy that the dark days of Jerry Jones' fascist rule are over, while others are feeling uncertainty about the direction of the franchise. Before we get into that, let's introduce the new face of the Dallas Cowboys. Meet Mr Anthony Hickson: Hickson made his money as a musician-turned-entrepreneur. Hickson was born in San Antonio, TX and has been a Cowboys fan for all of his life. Hickson's rise to riches started when he was 18 yrs old, he became an internet-sensation as a rapper, then turned that money into a fortune with some financially sound investment decisions, including some making his own name in the oil industry. Hickson's wealth has grown into the billions, and Hickson is now listed on Forbes' 100 Wealthiest People in the World. Hickson has now put his money to good use, purchasing his favorite sport's team, the Dallas Cowboys. Being only 34 years of age, and having Madden gameplay as his only football experience, many are wondering whether Hickson can handle being an NFL owner. Hickson has been fiscally sound thus far in every business venture he has undertaken, so there is no reason to suggest otherwise with this team. When asked about his intentions with the Dallas Cowboys franchise, Hickson had this to say, "I am excited to take ownership of the biggest name in American sports! This is like a dream come true for me. Never in my life did I think I would make it to a point where I would be the owner of an NFL team. I have been a life-long fan, and now I am excited to be in control of this organization. I know everyone is wondering what changes will be made, but let me assure everyone now, I came here to win. I am going to do whatever is best for this team to do that." *pictures and story may be fictitious in nature*
Damn - saw saints and falcons and i remembered the fun of playing against you last year! Good luck Jay.

Chicago Re-signs Cutler, Tillman, and Melton Chicago solidified its defense by re-signing pass rushing DT Henry Melton to a 3 year deal, while also bringing back Peanut Tillman on a 1 year deal worth an estimated 10.4 million dollars. The big re-signing was that of embattled QB Jay Cutler, who ha started off this season tied for the league lead in passing touchdowns at 7. Cutler has reportedly inked a 3-year deal worth over 40 million. Chicago must think that Coach Trestman has made enough of an impact on Cutler to warrant keeping him in the fold for the forseable future.
