Doc Podcast, and My Thoughts on the Oz Situation

What’s up in-thinair, been a while since I’ve gotten the chance to post. School’s been super hectic with college apps and such, and I don’t see that letting up. I’ll try to make it on here to post sporadically, but unfortunately I won’t be posting multiple times a week like I was in the summer.

Aldon Smith Suspened for One Year; Just the Most Recent Example of Goodell Hypocrisy

Oakland Raiders linebacker Aldon Smith has been suspended for one year without pay under the NFL’s substance-abuse policy, the league said Tuesday.

Twitter Reacts to Denver’s win over Baltimore

Doc’s Article on Mile High Huddle

Hopefully not lost in all this Deflategate nonsense is an excellent article that Doc wrote for Scout.com‘s Broncos site, Mile High Huddle. It touches on the increased learning curve for young OLinemen in the NFL. We all love Docs stuff, and he’s been producing great content for Rivals, which, after Thin Air of course, is an excellent Broncos blog. Glad to see that Doc’s back in some capacity.
