Oakland Raiders legend Jack Tatum dies at 61

Jack Tatum
, a safety for the Oakland Raiders from 1971 to 1979, was known for two things: knocking the hell out of an offensive player and paralyzing New England Patriots receiver Darryl Stingley in a 1978 preseason game. Tatum died at 61 on Tuesday, after a massive heart attack. According to the Associated Press, Tatum was dealing with diabetes and other health problems for the last several years.
"We are deeply saddened by the news of Jack Tatum's passing. Jack was a true Raider champion and a true Raider warrior," The Raiders said in a statement on their website. "He was a great player and person and has been a big part of our lives since we drafted him in 1971 as a first round pick out of Ohio State. "Jack was the standard bearer and an inspiration for the position of safety throughout college and professional football. Our thoughts, prayers and well wishes go out to his wife Denise and family."
In the '70s, Tatum sent fear in to the hearts of wide receivers trying to catch a pass across the middle or in the open field. He wasn't called "The Assassin" for nothing. It was just another day at the office to see Tatum knock a helmet off of a receiver or knock the wind out of a running back, but his most controversial hit came when he tackled Stingley.

It turns out that the wide receiver nobody wanted has finally found a home. Terrell Owens, likely the most talented unemployed athlete in all of sport, signed a one-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals. The deal is worth $4 million total, with $2 million guaranteed.

Owens and his agent are likely breathing a sigh of relief, as the season was getting closer with him still not being signed.

Most of us remember the great on-field play of Maurice Clarett (pictured) at Ohio State University. Clarett was arguably the greatest or second-greatest running back in the history of the school, breaking freshman records set by Archie Griffin (the only player to win the Heisman trophy twice). If Clarett's career had not been shortened, some believe that Clarett could have been just as amazing as Griffin.

Clarett led the Buckeyes to a 14-0 record and a national championship. He scored the team's only touchdown against the previously "unbeatable" Miami Hurricanes.

Nigel Carr
was expected to start for the Florida State Seminoles as a linebacker this season. Those plans are probably going to be altered, now that Carr faces a slew of felonies related to burglaries he allegedly committed this week.

According to Tallahassee police, Carr burglarized a parked SUV, stealing the victim's book bag that contained her purse and other valuables. Carr allegedly dumped the items in to a nearby trash can and police say they found the victim's credit card on the floor board of a vehicle being driven by Carr.

Some of you may have recently read about former University of Southern California standout Reggie Bush having to give up his Heisman Trophy in response to findings that he received "illegal" financial support that went above and beyond his college scholarship. For some reason, someone in the NCAA decided that it should be illegal for athletes who earn millions for coaches and administrators to be fairly compensated for their labor. Rather than attacking Barack Obama for being socialist, perhaps the Tea Party should go after the NCAA, who forces Socialism upon athletes, but allows coaches and administrators to engage in the kind of greedy capitalist excess that would make Wall Street bankers blush.

First, there was Michael Jordan, who said that he would never join forces with other great players in order to go after a championship.
