Don’t worry though, it is just a bruise. The x-rays were negative.

Hopefully this won’t affect his season too much. (via)

Fox 4 in Dallas is reporting that former Texas defensive tackle Marco Martin has been arrested on charges he molested a six-year-old boy. Martin would have been 15 or 16 at the time of the alleged assault in 1999. Martin turned himself in to Dallas police this morning.

Details are sounding a little sketchy right now. The police say the victim came forward last year but somehow they are claiming they couldn’t find a person who was probably on TV (on the sidelines) every weekend. It also seems odd that the victim took so long to come forward with the allegations, though with a child that young it is more understandable. If the allegations are true, then this is a tragic and disgusting story. I have no tolerance for child molestors but the situation seems to warrant withholding judgement until we learn more. Let’s hope for the sake of everyone involved there’s nothing to this.

Martin was a top recruit who tore his ACL his senior year in high school and was never able to get back into football shape. The player nicknamed “Big Yummy” was reported to be up above 400 pounds. He left school early after last year without (I believe) ever playing a down for the Longhorns.

Lots of positive reports from the media on Chris lately, & good quotes from Coach Gruden.

Vince Young's LogoVince Young hasn’t even played a down yet in the NFL, but already Reebok is showing their confidence in VY by giving him is own logo. [tag]Vince Young[/tag] had input in the design of his new logo, which is a small V inside of a big Y, in a sort of shield or crest.

Not too many players get their own logo (Tiger & Jordan), and I can’t remember a player who got his own logo before even playing pro. Is he going live up to the likenesses of Tiger or Jordan? Probably an impossible task, but it will sure be fun to watch Vince try.
