Deep Posts: I demand that Matt Ryan get a raise

By MJD

• Here's a rare argument that professional athletes are actually underpaid. And in a purely capitalistic view, it makes perfect sense. Still, I don't expect this to become the prevailing opinion among the American public anytime soon.

• The North Las Vegas police department did some research on automobile crash impact to help crash investigators learn some things. And someone in the NLVPD thought it would be hilarious to dress the test dummy in a Ben Roethlisberger jersey. Below, you can see if you agree.

• Where you a fan of Inside the NFL on HBO? Then I'd like to recommend a subscription to Showtime.

• Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano now says he wants Jason Taylor to be an active and happy member of the Miami Dolphins. I still think that's the most likely result in this whole thing.

    Do you think its funny MJD ? If so how about dessing the dummy (and I mean the crash dummy not you ) up in your Mothers clothes or Dads clothes or your brothers or sisters (if ya have any) clothes.
    Would you think that be funny?

    namjut,
    are you serious? how could you be mad about something so insignificant. someone there must be a browns or bengals fan. being a bears fan i would love to do that but put a favre jersey on the dummy because of all the pain he caused me throughout his incredible career.
    you have to relax.

    The real dummy here is whoever paid for and then wasted that jersey. It's one of the throwbacks and they cost a fair amount more than your average jersey.
