Matt Leinart’s decision to stay at USC another season will have a number of consequenses – a butterfly effect. We’re not talking about a cosmic shift in the universe, sex-change operations or global warming – but the game has changed, the boards are mixed and teams are scrambling to reset their own draft boards. There … Read more
As the days before the 2004 NFL Draft approached, the soap-opera began. Two teams; the San Diego Chargers and the New York Giants. Two quarterbacks; Eli Manning and Philip Rivers.
