Cowboys Bobby Carpenter and James Marten are 114 players taking part in the NFL Business Management and Entrepreneurial Program, which will be held on four different college campuses over the course of the spring.

Carpenter is headed for the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, while Marten will be at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Workshops will also be held at the business schools at Harvard and Stanford.

The Kellogg program will focus "on developing and selling a brand and evaluating franchise opportunities," according to the NFL's release. The Wharton program will cover "a broad range of business topics, including financial analysis, entrepreneurship, real estate development, stock market investing, negotiation skills, risk management, and community reinvestment."

good to see carp and marten exploring other career options.

No offense. It's really easy to bag on someone like some have already done in this thread....but

Carp has more football skill in his old Porn star mustache hair than any of you have or have ever had in your entire lives.


You know ...keep'n it real n all. :p:

Perhaps you are right...most definitely you are right unless there are some real Pros hanging out here incognito.

However, the "Real" issue is this:

Does he have even as much football skill in his entire body as the other linebackers employed in the NFL?

So far he hasn't proven that he does.

Still it is good to see that Carp is looking to his future.

I don't really feel the kid has had a fair shot at getting a starting position. He showed some good stuff last year. I remember talking about a couple of the plays he did make.

Agreed. Even if he shaved the porn stache off, it still has more football skill than everyone on this board combined.

but when compared to the rest of the lb in the nfl he looks like how you compare us to him. I never understand the argument he's better than people not in the nfl or the people who criticize him. When it comes to him being a LB in the nfl he shouldn't be

In the rare instances he's had the opportunity to play/start a football game at the NFL level, how did he do?


Nuff said.

There were reports that his girlfriend and a long time friend of his convinced him to shave the stash off sometime after the season ended. So, no more porn stash...
