    Superstitions, Cont’d. T Daniel Loper, Tennessee Puts his equipment on left to right in game order for every practice and game. QB Peyton Manning, Indianapolis Reads the game program cover to cover before every game. RB Moran Norris, San Francisco Does not walk under the cross bars before games. FB Mike Sellers, Washington Does not eat before a game, even if it’s a night game. WR Maurice Stovall, Tampa Bay Gets his hair cut every Friday and watches a Bruce Lee movie before every game. CB Charles Tillman, Chicago Has the same person stretch him and tape him. DE Jason Taylor, Miami Does everything from right to left. K Lawrence Tynes, Giants Washes his car before every home game. LB Brian Urlacher, Chicago Eats a couple of chocolate chip cookies before every game. NFL NICKNAMES “Peanut” may not be the first nickname that usually comes to mind for an NFL player, but that’s exactly the name Chicago Bears corner back CHARLES TILLMAN has gone by since childhood. But the nicknames get even more creative — Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback BYRON LEFTWICH gave his teammate MAURICE JONES-DREW the nickname “Pinball” after the way defenders bounced off the running back during training camp last year. Ranging in origin from athletic ability to size or demeanor, these nicknames give a creative insight into the players they have been given to. Here are some other interesting NFL player nicknames: PLAYER NICKNAME DERIVATION Anthony Adams, Chi. “Double A” Teammates say he moves constantly, just like the Energizer Bunny.

  • World League of Fantasy Football Bob Ackles
    World League of Fantasy Football Bob Ackles Cup Bob Ackles was born in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada, on Sept. 16, 1938. His family moved to Vancouver, British Columbia in 1952 and as a kid he played hockey, football and rugby. After seeing a newspaper article saying a professional football team was forming in Vancouver he immediately applied for a job. And so, Bob Ackles began his tenure with the BC Lions in 1953 as the water boy in the team’s first season in the Canadian Football League. Over the next 22 years he worked his way up through the ranks and was named the Lions’ General Manager in 1975. Eleven years he guided the team before being lured to the NFL where for the next six seasons he was the Vice President of Player Personnel for the Dallas Cowboys. Ackles left Dallas for the Phoenix Cardinals in 1992, but the Cowboys team he helped assemble went on to win Super Bowls in 1993, 1994 and 1996. He served in similar senior positions with Phoenix, Philadelphia, and Miami and also the Las Vegas Outlaws of the short-lived XFL. Ackles was the only person ever to hold senior executive positions in all three football leagues. In 2002 Ackles returned to the BC Lions as CEO and President and was also named to the CFL Hall of Fame. In 1986 he won the Schenley Award for his contribution to Canadian football, the only non-player to be recognized in the 33- year history of the award. In September 2007 Ackles’ published his memoir, The Water Boy (From the Sidelines to the Owner's Box: Inside the CFL, the XFL, and the NFL), a candid account of his life and his more than 50 years in professional football.

Batch, a nine-year NFL veteran and Pittsburgh-area native, starts in place of BEN ROETHLISBERGER, who underwent an emergency appendectomy on Sunday. Batch aims to lead the Steelers to their fourth consecutive Kickoff Weekend victory in the club’s first game following its Super Bowl XL championship. Culpepper, making his first start as a member of the Dolphins, can make history in 2006 by being the first player to lead both the AFC and NFC in touchdown passes for a season. Below is a team-by-team look at the men who will play quarterback in the AFC in 2006: BALTIMORE: Acquired in a June trade with Tennessee, STEVE MC NAIR leads the Ravens’ offense. In the past 10 seasons, McNair (153) stands second among active AFC starting quarterbacks in touchdown passes (PEYTON MANNING, 244). The three-time All-Star needs 2,859 passing yards and 61 rushing yards to become only the third player in history to throw for 30,000 yards and rush for 3,500, joining Pro Football Hall of Famers FRAN TARKENTON and STEVE YOUNG.
