I was watching Sportscenter tonight and they did a piece on Merriman. At one point they show a stat of sacks by outside linebackers over the last 4 years that claimed Merriman is second behind Joey Porter who has 40.5. Ware has 53.5, yet they somehow forgot to put him on the list at all.

I hadn't watched Spotscenter in a long time, now I remember why I stopped.

Maybe they were just quoting AFC stats. They're still biased, though.

I just saw it and they made no mention of whether it was AFC or NFC..it just said "OLB sack leaders the last 4 years"

The list was Joey Porter,Shawne Merriman,Shaun Phillips,Adalius Thomas basically all AFC players

I'm not sure why they don't include Ware as a OLB?? Cowboys and 49ers were the only NFC teams that ran the 3-4 last year so maybe they forgot..how embarrasing.

I just saw the piece and they do skip Ware. Nowhere on the graphics does it say AFC.

How the HELL do you leave out Ware?

Forget the conspiracy theories.... That's just sheer, raw incompetence.

BSPN strikes again. When will you get it? It's all about NFLN. Screw BSPN.

That's a much better explanation.

Wow if that wasn't supposed to be about AFC only then it's a pretty stupid and glaring mistake. You'd have to be a complete moron to not know about D-Ware at this point.

Yeah, they were talking yesterday about Ware being one o the top-5 defensive players in the league! Oh wait, that was on NFLN wasn't it.
