Price is right for Moose
Muhsin Muhammad is back and wearing his old No. 87. And he's surprised about that.
When Muhammad left the Panthers for the Chicago Bears three seasons ago, tight end Jeff King took his number.
Usually, when a player wants a number somebody already has, some kind of deal is transacted, or a fee is charged.
Not so with King, who gave Muhammad the number back and took No. 47 for himself.
"Amazingly enough, it was freely given," Muhammad said. "Where the market is these days, it was actually free!"

Standup move by King. I am a little weirded out by a TE wearing a number in the 40s, but apparently, Rosario was running with the starters, so it wouldn't be quite as bad.

If the rookie TE from Lousiville is as good as advertised, *he* might end up as the starter anyway ...

Here's the problem, though, Charlie. We're supposedly going back to our smashmouth power run game, and neither Rosario nor Barnidge are bulky or technically sound enough to serve as good blockers in that scheme. Before I saw he was running with the ones, I figured Rosario would start transitioning to an FB/H-Back kind of role (one he has experience in from college) in case Hoover retires without an obvious replacement.

Once again "Proctologist" you prove yourself a moron.I thought you knew all in the NFL,so why dont you know Chris Cooley (Washington) has a number in the 40's.

I was at choir practice, trying to think of a good comeback to that one. Unfortunately, I don't have one, so I'll ignore this particular post from now on. Sing loud, sing proud!
Posted by: Michael Procton | May 2, 2008 3:32:17 PM
Procton is an idiot

Spectacular we now have a knock off "Proctologist" this should make for some interesting fun.
By the way origional "Proctologist" you wouldnt happen to be Jpeppers Son/Dad that post on the board all the time are you?
Anyways let me know, I think I should invest in that company you buy all your lipstick from to make a couple dollars.

I can't see what you morons are yangin about, but I bet you idiots are wrong.

Hey Joe. Where you goin with that gun in your hand?
Posted by: Ray Charles | May 2, 2008 4:43:26 PM
Thought so. A bunch of babes, talking out of their collective bottoms.
Blogs should have some sort of filter, to disallow the young and silly-spoken folks
Posted by: Ray Charles | May 2, 2008 4:47:32 PM
Yes, GoS, I am aware that Chris Cooley (an H-BACK, not a tight end) has a number in the 40s.
Posted by: Michael Procton | May 2, 2008 4:59:16 PM
I'll have to agree with the late, great, Ray. You boners are arguing about a jersey number. Jeez-us.
Posted by: RZ | May 2, 2008 5:00:06 PM
Dallas Clark? WTF does a jersey number have to do with anything?
Posted by: matt | May 2, 2008 6:48:40 PM
Proctologist he may play the H-Back position ,I agree BUT he is listed as a TE smart Guy. So get used to King having a number in the 40's.........
It's good buisness.
Posted by: Ghost of Sparta | May 2, 2008 7:07:49 PM
Don't worry, give it a few weeks and Procton will be arguing how TE's with numbers in the 40's are the greatest thing ever.
The Proctologist either has multiple personalities or is just an idiot and will take both sides of an argument just to fight with people. Even he doesn't believe all the sh*t flowing out of his mouth.
But, he sure does look sweet in that picture with his choir girls, wearing lipstick.

HEY!!! Don't be hatin' on Rocky Horror. lol
Posted by: Panthernyut | May 3, 2008 5:52:46 AM
why don't you guyes leave Procton alone, I think he has good insights
Posted by: John | May 3, 2008 6:11:12 AM
Cooley plays TE not H-back. He is motioned around a lot but he never lines up in the backfield.
Posted by: eee | May 3, 2008 12:56:40 PM
I have nightmares of Procton singing in the "Tone Rangers" group from the movie "The Break Up"
Posted by: J Thomas | May 3, 2008 2:30:37 PM
Suprised to Procton on this site after he dogs the Observer as the "Disturber" on the Heraldonline site. It must be election season to see just another politician pendering....
Regarding Barnidge not being big enough ot block...they say he's gotten to the upper 240's and wants to get to the lower 250's. Considering that's as big if not bigger than TD, he should be ok in the blocking game.

Don't forget Dallas Clark (#47)!
Posted by: greenstreet | May 3, 2008 9:00:04 PM
Oops, I meant to say #44 for Clark.

Notice how Procton ignores blogs when people call him out for being a hack and a fake. Hilarious.
Posted by: Harold | May 4, 2008 9:53:28 PM
John, if you think procton has good insights im teaching a course at coastal carolina called football for morons.
procton has about 1 good insight per month,but hey, a broken clock is right twice a day.
Posted by: ray | May 5, 2008 8:28:09 AM
Notice how Harold doesn't have the balls to state his real name or email address. Hilarious.
Posted by: Michael Procton | May 5, 2008 9:15:59 AM
Nice try Procton, not going to work.
Last time I put my real email address on here you got mad at me and kept sending me all of your gay porn. I've learned my lesson, no more real email address. And I had to use a fake name because you kept trying to stalk me down and ask me out.
No Procton, I will not go out on a date with you. Please leave me alone, keep your gay porn to yourself, and go find a boyfriend.
Posted by: Harold | May 6, 2008 4:01:48 AM
Harold, I want to sex u up
