The concept is to pick a player from the current roster that you will follow closely throughout the year and then put updates about the player and how he is playing etc on this board as the season transpires.

Here is a link to the roster: http://www.meangreensports.com/SportSelect...;db_oem_id=1800

I will stick with my choice from last season defensive end Mack Cole! Here's to a great season for Mack and the defense!

Although I'd like to go with the new freshman sensation Darius Carey, I'm going to stick with last year's selection, linebacker A.J. Penson. A.J. had a decent season last year and although he's been moved to backup one of our most heralded players, Tobe Nwigwe, I expect him to contribute mightily this season. He'll give it his best.

my adopted player from last year, jordan scroggins, left the team....therefore.....i won't be adopting one this year....i'd hate to be the one to blame for something!

Same with mine, Kyle Russo, although I take partial blame - I wasn't a very good adoptive parent and rarely posted anything about him.

Looks like someone beat you to the draw.

OOPS! He must of jumped me to Penson while I was scanning the roster. I guess I'll go with another great high school player with potential who we really need to step up who goes by the name of Breece Johnson. We really could use some good hands people this year!

I'm reporting some of you parents to CPS. Seriously, some of you are horrible caregivers. I mean, I've seen your kids doing drugs, cursing, running away from home? Get a handle on things guys!

My player last year was Joseph Miller...heart of a lion but succumbed to the injury bug. Graduated and I wish him well.

My heart will always be with the big nasties on the line. Particularly this year, that is where we need to git'er done! My selected player, and one who I think will be a difference-maker, is Shavod Atkinson. Haven't met the man yet but I think he has the qualities we need.

So you are picking a guy that probably won't be on the bus and the athletic department spent the entire fall practice bagging on?

Why not? When you are a MeanGreener you've got to pull for the underdog. Just the way it is. Besides, B. Johnson does have hands and he ended the year last season with a pretty nice game. Ya never know?

You should at least be generous to offer weekend visitation to eulessismore.

I plan to be an absentee parent because of my boozing and whoring, so eulessismore is going to be the Big Brother here. I'll just show up at his games and pretend not to care to the point where after he finally rings up 6 sacks and 2 forced fumbles, he rains expletives on me and tells me he doesn't need me. I like the anti-hero role.
