Campbell Set to Take Off With Ex-Seahawk
by Jason Reid
Starter Jason Campbell, beginning his fourth season, hopes to take a big step under new head coach Jim Zorn, who also will be the Redskins' primary quarterbacks coach and play-caller. He also is confident that the offense will thrive in Zorn's West Coast scheme.
The Ultimate Dream
by Kevin Wilson
The previous generations of the Hamilton’s took advantage of an opportunity, and passed on the torch, to a multifaceted athlete seeking the ultimate opportunity -- an NFL contract.
Putting The 'D' In Drama
by Gregory Moore
Seriously, why should the Green Bay Packers even give credence to Brett Favre coming back even as a back up to Aaron Rodgers? Think about it for a minute. What kind of courtesy has Favre shown Rogers, a man who has to replace this now legend who is becoming a legendary diva on the NFL circuit?
Philly Soul a Hit in AFL Playoffs
by Michael-Louis Ingram
The Philadelphia Soul make sweet music in the Arena League's Eastern Conference final.
The Thing That Wouldn't Leave
by Lloyd Vance
We all know that Favre played one forgettable season in Atlanta before landing in Titletown, so it is almost sacrilege to think of the future Hall of Fame player in anything other than Green and Gold.

BASN NFL Picks: Super Bowl XLII
No more stupid questions about fake injuries. No more marriage proposals from desperate women looking for attention. No more introspective stories about friends, families, and other folks related to the players. No more lame ass stories by lazy reporters about "guarantees". Feb 1, 2008
BASN NFL Picks: Conference Championships
Much like college basketball's "Final Four", the NFL's final four teams standing all reached this moment through four completely different paths. Even though both games are regular season rematches, unlike the arrogance of baseball, no one will feel that those previous meetings will spoil Sunday's games. Jan 18, 2008
BASN NFL Picks: Divisional Playoffs
Well, this week should be tougher than last week, if for no other reason than the top four playoff seeds (Dallas, Green Bay, Indianapolis and Team Tivo, aka New England) will be in action after enjoying a Wild Card bye. In fact, the remaining eight teams in the playoffs have a combined record of 101-31. Jan 11, 2008
BASN NFL Picks: Wild Card Weekend
The next two weekends are the exact reason why pro football fans will put up with 17 weeks of overeating, pompous radio talk show hosts, overanalyzing TV announcers, the cable wars, self righteous nimrods who've never put on a helmet, and all the other stuff in between. Jan 4, 2008
BASN NFL Picks: Week Seventeen
For the 12th consecutive season, five or more teams will qualify for the playoffs that were not in the postseason the year before. Green Bay, Jacksonville, Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay did not make the playoffs last year but have done so this season. Dec 28, 2007

BASN NFL Power Rankings: Week 17
I fully anticipate the Tennessee Titans to take the AFC spot (Defensive-minded V.Y led team poised for a win with the Colts expected to sit several veterans) and the resurgent Washington Redskins to enter the NFC tournament (trying to continue their winning streak -- three-game winning streak since the funeral of Sean Taylor -- against Cowboys, who have nothing to gain by winning the game. Dec 30, 2007
BASN's NFL Power Rankings: Week 16
The playoff picture is becoming clearer each week and the only division race left is in the AFC North where the Browns and Steelers are tied at 9-5 with two weeks left to sort out who will be the champ and the other a wild card team. Remember that the Steelers own the tiebreaker because they have beaten the Browns twice head to head. Dec 22, 2007
BASN's NFL Power Rankings: Week 15
The separation of the have’s and have not’s continued in week 14 as the Patriots showed the Steelers that talk is cheap, the Cowboys grabbed their first NFC East division crown since 1998 with a last second victory over the reeling Lions, the Seahawks showed the exit to the Cardinals as they grabbed another NFC West crown... Dec 15, 2007
BASN's NFL Power Rankings: Week 14
For the second week in a row, the undefeated Patriots needed every second and every player to come through for them in tough win. This time the victory came on Tom Brady's 8-yard pass to Jabar Gaffney with 44 seconds left and a mad scramble hail mary pass that was stopped at the Pats two-yard line giving the Pats a 27-24 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. Dec 7, 2007
BASN's NFL Power Rankings: Week 13
We have reached the third quarter pole of the NFL season, so buckle up as we are coming in for a playoff landing. This time of year has brought the usual separation pattern of contenders and pretenders in the “Championship Rounds” (November and December). Dec 2, 2007
