I like Boris's idea. The only thing I would prefer more is something more Jayscentric of Vikingscentric, as they are my teams. If I come up with an idea for eiter team I will post it.

Apparently people suspect Barry Bonds of using performance enhancing drugs. It would be nice to see an article about that.


In the event that someone else covers that one, maybe something on factors that determine how long it takes a WR to get acclimated to the NFL (ie. the tagline is "3 years" to develop, but what factors allowed Anquan Boldin and Randy Moss to do it right away?) I know some work has been done on this but I have not yet run into anything very comprehensive.

*edit: Another one that I want to look into at some point is the long-term success of NFL RBs in relation to the number of carries they had in college. Are the extra carries helpful in learning the game or do they just beat up their bodies at a young age (ie. Laurence Maroney with about 500 collegiate carries and DeAngelo Williams with about 1000 collegiate carries).
