Face of the NFL in 07?


Mike and Mike posed a good question this Morning.

Who should the face be that represents the NFL.

Mike Vick. Has been considered in the past- dont think that is a smart PR move right now

Brett Favre. Although a great spokesman and role model, he shouldve already retired. Cmon Brett, hang em up and stop trying to chase all Dan's records

Tom Brady. I personally can't stand the guy, but he isnt outrageous, hasnt broken the law and has rings. He also has illegitimate kids.

Ben Rothlisberger- NO, too many stupid mistakes before last season.

Matt Hasselbeck/Shaun Alexander. No personallity to speak of. Who outside of the beautiful state of washington watches these guys?

Reggie Bush. Not yet

Ladanion Tomlinson. He gets my vote. Classy (Love the way he hands the ball to the ref after a TD). Well spoken, hard worker, and of course-incredible talent.

D-Mcnabb. Lost his time in the spotlight.


I know there are several other candidates, these are the ones that come to mind this AM. If you pick other, please expand on it..

I'd probably go with LT.

Though I disagree Mcnabb has lost his time in the spotlight. IMO he rivals Manning as the first (or second depending where you place Brady) as the top QB in the league when healthy. I know people will disagree with that, and that's fine. Not that I think he is better, but I can make a strong case for it.

I also think JT would be a good 'face' because of his outspoken Anti-Steroid stance.

Dangit. I completly forgot Manning (Peyton of course).

MODS: Can somebody please fix my poll? Is that something I can do myself?

Thanks Alex...ruined my poll with the first post..

I'm tired of Manning. I say LT. He does alot for the community and is a great roll model on and off the field. The other person that I'd vote for that is not on this list is Drew Brees.

Tired of him being the face of the NFL? The guy deserves it, otherwise he wouldn't be it
