Hello all of you loyal Football ^FAN^atics,

I was watching one of my favorite TV shows (NFL LIVE) a few days ago and one of their reporter/analysts made a fantasy football prediction about a former Green Bay Packers player. He said that Ahman Green RB of the Houston Texans is an outstanding player that you should have on your team.

I did some investigation of him and the following is what I found granted free agency on March 2, 2007…Signed by Houston Texans on March 5, 2007. Ahman Green is a tremendous offensive weapon who rebounded from a leg injury that ended his 2005 season to rush for 1,059 yards and five touchdowns in 2006. He rushed for 8,491 yards and 54 touchdowns in nine seasons, the last seven of which were spent with the Green Bay Packers…is a four-time Pro Bowl selection…holds the Packers record with six 1,000-yard seasons…is Green Bay’s all-time leader in total yards from scrimmage with 10,870 yards (8,162 rushing, 2,708 receiving)…ranks second on the Green Bay all-time rushing list with 8,162 yards as a Packer, only 45 yards behind Hall of Famer Jim Taylor’s total of 8,207…holds the Packers record for most touchdowns in a season with 20 in 2003 and has the third-most touchdowns in Packers history with 67…ran for more yards (6,848) and had more total yards from scrimmage (9,036) than any back in the NFL from 2000-04. He is blessed with tremendous speed, he is one of only two backs in NFL history with multiple touchdown runs of 90-plus yards (Bo Jackson is the other) and has eight career carries of at least 60 yards…ran for 329 yards and one touchdown in two seasons with the Seahawks before being traded to Green Bay in 2000. My only question: Why did the Pack let him get away from their well known Super Bowl winning team?

Until my next article, Louie (LOUUP)
