Certain Report said that the NFL's medical committee is planning offering players echocardiograms after Chicago Bears defensive end Gaines Adams' death this month.
Adams died Jan. 17 of an enlarged heart, something an echocardiogram can detect. NFL teams already give extensive physicals to players. Stress testing and echocardiograms are conducted when the results of the physical, an EKG and family history indicate the need. NFL medical people and outside experts who sit on the league's cardiovascular health committee previously have discussed making echocardiograms standard. They're doing so again, pending the final pathologists' report on Adams.
We hope all the players with NFL jerseys would be healthy with the gradually upgrading rules and equipments.

Garcon concerns about family in quake-hit Haiti
Pierre Garcon's charming smile was gone instead of worries about Haiti's fatal earthquake and the fate of his relatives who live near the capital city of Port-Au-Prince.
"Aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews. We still have not heard much from them, and my mom is still trying to call them," Garcon said, according to The Associated Press. "I'm keeping in contact with my mom. It's tough to get in touch with people down there because of the phone lines." This second year player with No.85 colts jersey was born in the USA, but most of his relatives still stay in the Caribbean nation.
Because of the destroy of the quake, keep in touch with hit area is hard. God bless them.

Super Bowl ad prices fall
The economic depression seems to have taken a blow on Super Bowl ads, forcing the price down for the second time in the game's history, but they're still the most expensive.
While early readings suggest there are better deals this year over last, Pepsi won’t advertise its drinks for the first time in 23 seasons, joining FedEx and GM, who dropped out last year. In their absence, newcomers and smaller companies have snatched up slots in advertising’s biggest showcase. We can see the detailed figures after the Super Bowlairs on 7th Feb. CBS spokesman Dana McClintock said they don’t calculate average price because it’s not how they manage the business, but they’re confident that if they did it would be higher than last year.
Above all, it influence little to those players with NFL jerseys.

Smith will be back as the starter
Alex Smith has been San Francisco's starting quarterback in 10 games this season and he awards the job going on for the 49ers.
Though they ended with a disappointing 8-8 finish, Coach Mike Singletary had good comment on him and said he saw "steady progress" from Smith and that he would remain the starter heading into the offseason. "I don't think it's a matter of another coordinator," Singletary said. "I think it's a matter of putting the pieces together, identifying exactly the offense that you're going to run, identifying the kind of offensive line that you need in order to run that. I think we have a lot of pieces in place. I just think it's a matter of getting all the pieces in the right places." The details of the evaluation process will be cleared after they talked with the other coaches.
I expect to watch Smith running on the field with 49ers jersey.

Brees will sit and watch
Almost everyone wants to see the No.9 saints jersey, but Dree Brees will have a rest this weekend, likely keeping his NFL-record completion percentage unchanged.
Coach Sean Payton is clear that to put Mark Brunell in place of his star QB in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Carolina Panthers. Brees' completion mark of 70.60 percent will break the record of 70.55 set by Ken Anderson with the Cincinnati Bengals in 1982 if he does not play. "When I was a rookie quarterback in San Diego, I looked up all the records," he said Thursday. "I just wanted to know, you know? So I knew them all by heart there for a while." Obviously, this star player was concerned with the record.
Brees said he would try his best to help the team.
