    I don't see what the problem is.... he's strong... he can take hits.... he's quick..... he sees holes.... The guy tied Barry freakin Sanders record for most TDs in a season.

    Wow. Now that's a reach.

    Peterson measured 6'2"/218 lbs. at the NFL combine and ran a 4.38 40.

    Ball will be lucky to run a 4.5, based on what I've seen. He reminds me of Maurice Clarrett, actually.

    He had a great collegiate season, but I think he has some holes (mostly top end speed) that are going to limit his impact in the NFL.

    props to Wisconsin... great fans. Had good fun with those around me in the stadium and shared laughs/well wishes/beers with Badger fans throughout the fucking phenomenal game day.

    Following the game with my voice trashed from yelling, I was talking to my friend about what game(s) in the history of the program might have been better to attend. Perhaps I'm still a little too close to the situation to properly assess matters, but the Kenny Wheaton is gonna score game was the only one I could put in the conversation.

    I've got smile cramps too :)

    not to downplay the season Ball had... but didnt Sanders set that record in like 11 games and had like 5 more TD's in the Bowl game which didnt count towards the record?

    Apparently the next Adrian Peterson didn't like being told he'd be a 3rd-round pick, at best. :)
