Committee Chairman
It was announced that former Kansas City Chief, Fred Arbanas, passed away at the age of 82. Like many in the early '60s, Fred Arbanas was drafted by both the NFL and the AFL, but usually, those who chose the AFL were drafted higher by the new organization. This wasn't the case with Arbanas, who was a 7th Round Selection by the Dallas Texans, where the St. Louis Cardinals in the 2nd Round. No matter, as Arbanas would go on to the All-AFL Team at Tight End. He was an AFL All-Star as a rookie, and with the Texans, he would help…

This was sudden. LaMarcus Aldridge, who recently signed with the Brooklyn Nets abruptly retired due to issues with his heart. In his last game, Aldridge experienced an irregular heartbeat, and after consulting with doctors, the former Trail Blazer elected to call it a career.

Written by
Committee Chairman
Recently we wrote about the retirement of Julian Edelman, who has been the topic of Hall of Fame discussion, as countless publications have prognosticated about his chances. It has ranged from good to zero, and if we can give our pair of pennies on it, it is this. The New England Patriots Hall of Fame will nominate him, and the voting public will induct him. When it happens, it should be celebrated by the Patriot fan base, and it will be. As for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, we have said often and will say it here bluntly: Edelman has no chance…

Written by
Committee Chairman
New England Patriots Wide Receiver, Julian Edelman, has retired. Edelman, who is 34, played only six Games last year due to chronic knee issues, played all 12 of years in the NFL with the Pats. Edelman’s story is a phenomenal one, as despite being a Quarterback at Kent State, Patriots Head Coach, Bill Belichik saw him as a possible receiver/returner, and as often was the case, he was right. Edelman was never a Pro Bowl or All-Pro Selection, but he became a regular target of Tom Brady, and would have three 1,000-Yard campaigns, accumulating 6,822 Yards with 36 Touchdowns. Combined with his Return…
