One day after 2018 NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes and several of his peers released a video demanding the league condemn racism, Goodell made his strongest statement on the issues many players passionately support. George Floyd’s death has ignited nationwide protests over racial injustice and police brutality, issues former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began speaking out against in 2016 when he started taking a knee during the national anthem. NFL @NFL We, the NFL, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of Black People. We, the NFL, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the NFL, believe Black Lives Matter. #InspireChange “It has been a difficult time for our country. In particular, black people in our country,” Goodell said in a video released Friday. “First, my condolences to the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and all the families who have endured police brutality. We, the National Football League, condemn racism and the systematic oppression of black people. We, the National Football League, admit we were wrong for not listening to NFL players earlier and encourage all to speak out and peacefully protest. We, the National Football League, believe Black Lives Matter. I personally protest with you and want to be part of the much needed change in this country. “Without black players, there would be no National Football League. And the protests around the country are emblematic of the centuries of silence, inequality and oppression of black players, coaches, fans and staff. We are listening. I am listening, and I will be reaching out to players who have raised their voices and others on how we can improve and go forward for a better and more united NFL family.” PUBLICATION: Pioneer Press DATE: 6/8/20 Jake Lacina hopes to make big leap to his dad’s former team, the Vikings By Bob Sansevere Jake Lacina is hoping to make the leap from Division II Augustana University to the NFL. He signed as a free agent with the Vikings and, if he makes the team out of training camp, will be the second Lacina to play for the Vikings. Jake’s dad, Corbin, was a guard with the Vikings from 1999-2002 and spent more than a decade in the NFL. Jake played center in college. As for the NFL, he’s ready to play anywhere the Vikings want him. I’m 6-foot-4, like 305 pounds. I was looking at Division II schools when I was in high school. That’s where I was getting recruited. I got nothing from Big Ten schools, not even a letter. I was only 6-2, 190 as a junior in high school. I was 6-4, 235 as a senior. I guess that’s not big enough for Division I schools. Augustana (in Sioux Falls, S.D.) was the only school that offered me a scholarship. I definitely was a late bloomer. I gained weight my junior year in high school when I decided I had a chance to play college football. I brought two lunches from home and I bought a lunch a school. It was pretty crazy. I’d eat lunch throughout the day and buy a lunch. I ate a lot of food. I went to college at about 260 pounds. I’ve been eating a lot of food since my junior year. My main thing was calories, protein and carbs. No Twinkies or stuff like that. I’d have yogurt, bagels and a protein shake for breakfast. Peanut butter sandwiches and chocolate milk helps pack on the pounds. I’m a pretty lax guy, playing video games and just hanging out. When it comes to football, I’m a completely different person. There’s a switch. You find what motivates you and just go. I had a buddy in high school who died in a car crash. We were really good friends and always talked about playing college football. He motivated me. I played my senior year of high school for him. I said, “I’m going to gain 50 pounds and prove some doubters wrong.” Right now, the Vikings are saying I’m a center with some guard work. Just like they would be telling a guard to do some center work. Things happen all the time, but right now I’m a center. I knew the Vikings were the team I was going to pick. It seemed like a good fit for me and a good chance to make the team. As long as I’m on a team right now, I’m happy. A lot of people can’t say that. Scouts came through, but the only team that showed genuine interest was the Vikings. A goal of mine was to get drafted. This year, I didn’t think it was going to happen because I didn’t have a pro day or meet with teams because of how the coronavirus impacted the way things were done as far as the usual pre-draft contact. I’m not complaining. It’s just the way life goes. Every kid wants to be in the NFL, but I didn’t realize I had a shot until after my junior year in college. I decided I had to get up to 300 pounds to have a chance at this. I said, “This could happen.” It was a different experience for me, having the scouts watch. I didn’t know if being a Division II player would hurt me. But many guys have played Division II and played in the NFL. (Vikings fullback) C.J. Ham went to my school and did it. I figured he did it, why not? When I was a redshirt freshman, he was a big-time senior. When you grow up and your dad is in the NFL, it seems normal. I thought that’s something I could do as a career. If I could time travel, I’d probably go back to the Middle Ages with the knights and stuff. That’d be cool. I’d be a blacksmith or something. My favorite cereal was Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That stuff gets me. I still eat it. My favorite movie trilogy is “Lord of the Rings.” Any of those would be my favorite of all time. If it’s on, I’ll watch it. I can watch those all day. There are a lot of good comedies. I watched a lot of Adam Sandler movies growing. “Waterboy” and “Happy Gilmore” were good. Nothing too complex there. I was a business management major. I don’t know what I’d do with that right now. I’d say my favorite player was Randy Moss growing up. I was all over the place with teams. Until seventh or eighth grade, I was a Buffalo Bills fan because my dad played for them. Then I became a Vikings fan when my dad joined the team. My dad has helped me with technique throughout my life. As for advice, my dad said, “Do your own thing, don’t worry about anyone else and stick to being you.” I’m a big pasta and chicken parmigiana and fettuccini Alfredo fan. That keeps the weight up. I’m living at home right now. My older brother and two younger sisters are at home, too. We have a full house. I probably wouldn’t change anything about myself unless I could be a little faster or a little stronger. Isolation? It’s not the worst. I’ve done pretty well. I’m just learning football, lifting weights and running around. I was a guard my junior year in high school and a tackle my senior year.

  • INTERNAL Buffalo Bills Mock Draft 1.0 by Gregory Kowalczyk the Buffalo
    Buffalo Bills Mock Draft 1.0 By Gregory Kowalczyk The Buffalo Bills followed up their 2017 playoff season with a disappointing 2018 season finishing 6-10. The rebuild that was supposed to start a year prior shifted into the 2018 season that brought many changes. The Bills played the 2018 season with the most “dead cap” space in the league, essentially paying players not to play here; as General Manager Brandon Beane cleared out the bad contracts to put the Bills in a healthy salary cap situation going forward. The Bills started over at the Quarterback position with rookie Josh Allen and infused some young pieces on the defensive side of the ball. There is a lot to look forward to as many of the rosters younger players were evaluated and got suitable playing time to help them grow going forward. The 2019 schedule on paper is favorable and the Bills are expected by many to improve and challenge for a playoff spot and hopefully (Yes, we say this every year) close the gap with the New England Patriots. It’s got to happen someday right? The 84th annual 2019 NFL draft is taking place in Nashville, Tennessee this year on April 25th-27. The Bills are in a healthy draft position where they own extra mid round picks that could come in handy should General Manager Brandon Beane want to move up in the first or second rounds. The Bills will enter the draft with 10 draft selections. Brandon Beane will be able to use his extra draft selections in the 4th, 5th, and 7th to move up or the Bills could look to stockpiling 2020 draft picks moving down.

    2017 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 2017 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players highlighted in yellow played for two or more teams. They are assigned to the team they last played for in the season.
