Michigan's proudest WR, Mario Manningham, managed to score a 6 on the NFL's Wonderlic intelligence test.
6.
An average score on the Wonderlic is 21, right were OSU's Vernon Gholston landed. That's supposed to represent an average IQ. But how bad is 6?
"Charlie Wonderlic Jr., president of Wonderlic Inc., says, 'A score ...

The Colts are finally being exposed as an overrated team that doesn't deserve to compete for the title. I mean, losing to a team with more losses than you? How pathetic.

I feel bad for Ted Ginn, Jr.
Holy cow. Recruited as a defenseman, then a #3 SR, then a #1 WR. Fastest feet in the Big Ten.
Set the conference record for punt return TDs. Would have set the record for kickoff TDs, had it not been for several controversial calls on ...

Looking at the NFL Draft from the perspective of an Ohio State fan is always fun to do. It's exciting to see kids you cheered for to make the jump to the professional level (unless they get drafted by the Steelers or Ravens, GRRR!). So first, the facts. Here's how ...

Sigh...
When will Big Ten players learn? Running a 4.4 / 40 with an ankle that's just been removed from a cast is the type of pathetic performance that we've all come to expect from a non-SEC player. Scouts were disappointed, but not surprised, at the Cleveland native's predictable sloth-like jog.

I guess MotSaG wouldn't be much of a sports blog if we didn't say at least a few words on Prince's concert the Super Bowl...
Does anyone else see the parallels between the NFL championship and the BCS title game, here?

While fans of Troy Smith would certainly love to see him go high in the NFL draft, Smith would rather go lower if it would mean being drafted by Cleveland.

We really like you.
"Yeah? Thanks a lot."
We're going to form a company to market you.
"Groovy, dude."
Are you into it?
"Sure, man. Whatever."
Here's a house.
"Cool."
Here's a car.
"Thanks. Hey, it needs fixed up, though."
Here's some money to fix it up.
"Sweet."
Here's some more money to pay off your mama's bills.
"Okay."
