Say Goodbye to 'The New Kai'

| 14 Comments | No TrackBacks

While the newkai.com domain will be sticking around, I killed the over-eight-year-old "The New Kai" concept of this website. Not only was it horribly out of date content and design-wise, much of it was broken!

"The New Kai" concept was based on fifteen-to-eighteen-year-old me and simply had to be discarded of. I now work about fifty hours a week, spend six-plus hours in the gym, enjoy nightlife, and sleep most of the weekend to recuperate from the previous three. It was time for me to upgrade to a much simpler content management system.

Any of the worthy content from the old site will be carried over here eventually. You'll already find a link to my two photo sites in the "pages" section of the main page. I might even bring back the KaiCams sometime, although I think they'll be a little more outdoors oriented this time! They certainly did a lot for the uniqueness of this site.

Even maintaining a website in this age of Facebook is a struggle. See my post about this last year.

Here are images I dug up of newkai.com versions 1 & 2:

newkai1.pngnewkai2.png

I'm finally freeing myself of frames on newkai.com. While they improved the site's appearance back in the day, there's no use for them in 2008. And last but not least, there's no more 18-year-old me frozen all over the screen!

Martin Took The Long Road To The NFL
Dolphins defensive tackle went from his native Jamaica to Toronto, Canada, and then to San Diego for the start of his NFL career. Related Content VIDEO: New Dolphin Vaughn Martin In Studio Vaughn Martin admits he’s allowed himself to reflect on his remarkable journey more often since he became a member of the Miami Dolphins. And yet he also says he still doesn’t do it as often as he probably should. After all, the big defensive tackle arrived in Miami after his road took him from his native Jamaica to Toronto,YouTube's Kickalicious makes NFL debut, Canada, and then to San Diego for the start of his NFL career. It’s a career that’s still on the rise, and that’s the biggest reason Martin doesn’t stop and recollect more often. “,” Martin said. “I see Jamaicans fresh off the boat and this and this … yeah, when you think about it, you’re proud,Every NFL Teams Biggest Change so Far This Of, but there’s so much more to go still.” Martin’s journey moved to Miami this spring when he signed with the Dolphins as an unrestricted free agent following four seasons with the Chargers. He comes to Miami as an emerging player who still has a lot of room for improvement but one who’s already grown a tremendous amount from his first days in the NFL. The Dolphins have had tremendous success in recent years with players who spent time in Canada, with Cameron Wake and Marcus Thigpen quickly coming to mind, but Martin is a different case. Wake and Thigpen went to Canada to play in the CFL after playing college football in the U.S.; Martin played his college football in Canada — with its rules of three downs and 12 players on the field. When Martin first got to the NFL after being a fourth-round pick of the Chargers in 2009, he was about as raw a prospect as you could get. “When I first came in, I didn’t even know how much I didn’t know,” said Martin, who played hockey in Canada before taking up football and eventually hanging up his ice skates. “That curve was exponential. It was every single day, every week, whatever. I was fortunate, I worked hard enough, I started the last two years,Mike Adams of Pittsburgh Steelers ready 7 weeks af, but I still feel like I have a way to go. “Last year didn’t go as well as I wanted it to go, but this year will. And I’m just excited to be here.” That is pretty clear. In addition to the Dolphins, San Diego wanted to re-sign him and the Seahawks also were interested. In fact, Martin got off a plane headed for Seattle to sign with Miami. “There’s 32 franchises; every one has their own personality,” Martin said. “ But when I got here, I was familiar with some of the guys here. I trained with Mike Pouncey up in Boca a few weeks before I was even contacted by the Dolphins. And just after coming here and meeting with the coaches, the strength coaches, the program, just walking around the building … first of all, you want to win. This game is too hard to not want to win. I really felt that’s where they were going. Hard-working team. It basically suited my personality. “And as a bonus, I have family down here in South Florida. It’s a nice play to be. So it was a combination of things. It was the perfect storm. And I really feel ... yeah, I’m really happy to be here.” Martin, whose father, three brothers, two sisters, aunts and uncles live in Pembroke Pines, was looking at playing in a different defense when he joined the Dolphins. He was a defensive end in the Chargers’ 3-4 system the last four years, but now has been lining up at defensive tackle in the Dolphins’ 4-3. “I knew it was going to be different,” Martin said. “I knew there were going to be some challenges just because it’s going to be different. Anytime you’ve got to learn in this game, it’s already fast enough,Fansided NFL Top 25 Poll- Tampa Bay Buccaneers Ran, there’s going to be some difficulties and things to adjust to. But I was actually excited about it. I felt when I first came out,Dee Milliner, New York Jets reach contract agreement, with my body type, I was more suited to a 3-4. Over the last couple of years, my body type is maybe more suitable for a 4-3. So I was excited.” Martin’s addition will give the Dolphins even more depth at a position that already boasted plenty of it with former Pro Bowl selections Randy Starks and Paul Soliai. In addition, 2010 first-round pick Jared Odrick lined up at defensive tackle in the offseason practices open to the media. While there’s a long way to go before Martin plays his first game for the Dolphins, he’s already impressed Head Coach Joe Philbin with his attitude. “I like his energy and his enthusiasm,” Philbin said. “He’s a guy that comes into the building with a positive attitude. It looks like he likes to play the game. To us, those are underrated qualities sometimes, believe it or not. He has a lot of physical tools and athleticism, but I like his attitude, I like the way he’s approached his job when he comes into the building at this early stage of the game.” Martin, who turned 27 on April 18, recorded three sacks in his four seasons in San Diego, but his main responsibility was more that of a run stopper. Martin says it’s too early to talk about his role. Besides, he’s enjoying himself too much to worry about it. “It’s going to define itself,” Martin said. “I started in San Diego the last couple of years. It means I know how to play the game. All I want to do is be the best I can be, and whatever that is is going to be whatever it is. But it’s going to be 100 percent effort. There’s a role for me here. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t think I could help this team win. At the end of the day, that’s all it’s about.”

NFL Training Camps 2013: Daily Updates, Rumors & Analysis
The injury bug bit the Philadelphia Eagles hard on Saturday. ,Cowboys counting on Carter, Lee as playmaking pair, wide receiver Jeremy Maclin tore his ACL in practice and will miss the entire 2013 season. The 25-year-old Maclin was being counted on to be a big part of Chip Kelly's offense this year, but teammate DeSean Jackson said "It looked like his knee just kind of buckled on him a little bit."
The Eagles weren't the only team left scrambling after a major injury. The Baltimore Ravens, who already lost wide receiver Anquan Boldin in free agency, will now be without the services of tight end Dennis Pitta as well. The fourth-year pro, who reeled in seven touchdown passes last year,Cowboys Face Dolphins to Kick off Preseason in NFL, fractured his hip after colliding with a teammate in the end zone and will miss all of 2013 according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pitta has already had surgery to repair the fracture, and now the Ravens must act quickly to repair a suddenly fractured passing game.
It hasn't taken Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert long to make a first impression with new head coach Gus Bradley, and apparently that impression isn't good. Gabbert had a disastrous day of practice Saturday, botching play after play and throw after throw . A clearly exasperated Bradley was none too pleased by the performance, stating that "It's not acceptable. We re not going to tolerate it."
Not all the news was bad for the Jaguars,How NFL Teams Can Psyche Out Their Opponents on Defense, however. Running back Maurice Jones-Drew's recovery from a Lisfranc injury is apparently progressing well .

I feel like I did some old stuff. I just want to continue that and continue on that track."
It was scary day of practice in Berea, Ohio. Second-year offensive lineman Ryan Miller of the Cleveland Browns was taken off the field on a stretcher after lying motionless on the ground for several minutes. Miller was transported to the Cleveland Clinic but he is reportedly awake, alert,Carolina Panthers Options For 2013 NFL Trade Deadl, and has feeling in all of his extremities.
Three of this year's first-round draft picks remain unsigned, and in the case of New York Jets cornerback Dee Milliner it doesn't appear that's going to change any time soon. That's the latest from the , who reports that "nothing is imminent" in regards to the former Alabama star getting into camp.

Reports: Von Miller's suspension not for failed drug test
’s potential four-game suspension for violating the league’s drug policy, which surfaced this week and rocked a Broncos team that is a favorite to reach the Super Bowl, wasn’t related to a failed drug test, according to reports.

“He didn’t test positive for anything,” a person with knowledge of Miller’s situation told . , citing an NFL source,Freeney not still edge beast at 33, but may prove big for Chargers, reported Friday that Miller didn’t test positive for performance-enhancing drugs or recreational drugs.

Miller is appealing the suspension and says he “did nothing wrong.” If the new reports are accurate,The excuses stop now for Jay Cutler, it’s unclear why Miller would receive a four-game suspension.

USA Today reported the suspension could have been trigged by missing a drug test or providing a diluted urine sample.

NFL.com said the ban could have resulted from skipping a counseling session or for repeatedly being late for tests. Miller has been involved in the NFL's substance-abuse program since testing positive for marijuana in 2011, his rookie year, after which he was named NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year.

According to an NFL.com report, Miller’s appeal will be heard in mid-August.

Losing Miller for a month would be a blow, but the Broncos’ schedule is favorable during that stretch. The team plays three of its first four games at home—and two of those contests are against opponents (Oakland,Jadeveon Clowney is best at any level, says Georgia's Mark Richt, Philadelphia) that had poor records last season.

The Best Nickname in Every Team's NFL History
As one of the more successful and famous franchises in the NFL,Arizona Cardinals cheerleader is an Iraq veteran, the 49ers have a lot of nicknames that represent both the great teams in the present and from their storied past.
However,No players picked in NFL supplemental draft, the most unique nickname of this franchise is "The Gold Rush," one which has a ton of history from the 1800s.
The nickname was created when the of golden nuggets led to thousands of people traveling to California with the hope of a better life,Brandon Scherff could follow path of other Iowa OL.

Chiefs report to camp with high expectations
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) -- Eric Berry didn't even allow a question about last season to be asked before cutting off the inquiring mind. There was no way he was going to relive that nightmare.
The Kansas City Chiefs scuffled along to a 2-14 finish, matching the worst in a proud franchise's history. Along the way,JACKSONVILLE, Fla.- Jags narrow role for 'offe, they endured a nasty fan revolt that included plenty of folks wearing paper bags to Arrowhead Stadium, and a grisly murder-suicide involving a teammate.
So, quite naturally, Berry would rather speak optimistically about a fresh start.
''We've got standards for ourselves, so we have a lot of stuff to prove,'' the Pro Bowl safety said Thursday. ''We're not worried about outside opinions or factors or anything like that. We are just focused on coming in, jelling as a unit and just taking it from there.''
That all starts with the first full-squad workout of training camp on Friday.
Berry was among the veteran players who were trickling into training camp on the campus of Missouri Western State University. They joined rookies, quarterbacks and a few selected veterans who were able to get a head start over the past few days.
''We're excited about this year, as far as where we're going and the direction we're headed,'' Berry said, before adding of last year: ''I don't really want to compare the two.''
In truth, the Chiefs had similarly high expectations last year after a strong finish to a tumultuous 2011 season. But they were blown out in their opener, struggled to score points behind a revolving door at quarterback, and then watched as the season spiraled out of control.
At one point, departed offensive lineman Eric Winston ripped into a few supporters for cheering when former quarterback Matt Cassel got hurt, and that only inflamed a simmering fan discontent. A grass roots group started ponying up money to pay for a banner to be towed behind an airplane prior to several home games asking Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt to fire GM Scott Pioli.
The fans ultimately got their wish with an emphatic January housecleaning.
Romeo Crennel was out as head coach, Pioli was sent packing soon after, and Hunt announced he'd be taking a more hands-on approach to running the team.
It was Hunt who moved swiftly to hire coach Andy Reid just days after he was let go following 14 season with Philadelphia. Then,NFL Stars Go On Offense Against Sleep Apnea With Pro Player Health Alliance, Hunt managed to secure the hottest front office candidate in the NFL in longtime Packers personnel man John Dorsey as his general manager.
Reid and Dorsey quickly set about overhauling a roster that had six Pro Bowl players but massive holes at just about every other position, and a perilous lack of depth across the board.
''We're approaching this year with a fresh start,'' said wide receiver Dexter McCluster, suddenly one of the Chiefs' elder statesmen. ''New coach, new players, new team, new year.''
The new player under the harshest spotlight is undoubtedly Alex Smith, who was starting to flourish as the quarterback in San Francisco before getting hurt last season. He ultimately lost his job to Colin Kaepernick during the 49ers' Super Bowl run and then became trade bait.
The Chiefs wasted little time snatching him up, perhaps finally achieving some stability at the most important position on the field for the first time in nearly a decade.
Dorsey and Reid then went on a shopping spree, signing a free-agent class that included wide receiver Donnie Avery, tight end Anthony Fasano and defensive backs Dunta Robinson and Sean Smith, both of whom will be counted on to help a pass defense that was dismal last season.
''We're going to be way better,'' Robinson promised. ''We're going to be a playoff team.''
That's a mighty strong prediction for a team that won just two games, but it would hardly be an unprecedented turnaround. Just last season, the Indianapolis Colts went from two wins to 11-5 and the playoffs behind vastly improved quarterback play - they had drafted Andrew Luck.
''We have plenty of talent,'' Sean Smith said. ''We have plenty of Pro Bowlers on this team. The talent is here. We just have to put it all together.''
As the saying goes, there's no better time than the present.
While the Chiefs have plenty of young contributors,NFL Hall of Fame Game Miami Dolphins vs. Dallas Co, some of their best players are well into the prime of their careers. Pro Bowl linebackers Tamba Hali and Derrick Johnson have been around for nearly a decade, and even running back Jamaal Charles has some wear on his legs.
Hali wondered whether his window to win is starting to close.
''We're getting older and it's starting to hit you more,'' he said. ''Eight years ago, it was fun coming out here and proving you can play the game,NFL camp- Oakland Raiders like what they see from, but at this stage in your career, you want to prove something. You want to win a Super Bowl. You want to accomplish something.
''Playing football and making money,Police search pond in Conn. hometown of ex, that's not the goal,'' Hali added after moving into his training camp dorm room. ''It's to win a championship here for the Chiefs.''

Geno Smith outplaying Mark Sanchez through first week of New York Jets training camp
He's intrigued by Smith's running ability, which would give the Jets a run-pass option at the quarterback position. Ryan acknowledged the plan, admitting last year's strategy under former coordinator Tony Sparano was ill-conceived. They never trusted Tebow to throw the ball. Whenever they used him,Christians in Communications Feature Former NFL Pl, it usually was a read-option running play between the tackles.
"I think if that's the only thing you do with that position, why don't you just leave a running back in, a guy that's trained to do it?" Ryan said,OK! Magazine- First For Celebrity News -- Latest C, second-guessing last season's approach. "If you're going to have a quarterback do it,This is how Google Glass in the NFL could work, like a (Colin) Kaepernick or somebody like that,Morning links- NFL stock rising for UW safety Sean Parker, it becomes more of a weapon because you know it's not just Tebow coming and he's going to run the ball. That's kind of where we were last year."
Ryan laughed when asked if he plans to use the Wildcat (or read-option) more than last year. Tebow finished with 32 rushes, averaging only 3.2 yards per carry.
"We probably will because,AFC Update- Roster Struggles Loom Ahead Of NFL Pre, you guys say it, we never used it," he said. "So I would say, yeah, I think that will be part of what we do."
In the Wildcat, the ball is snapped to a nonquarterback. In those situations, the Jets can utilize wide receiver or a running back, probably . When Smith is on the field, either as the starter or a change-of-pace quarterback, they can employ the read-option.

Bill Parcells says he would pick Lawrence Taylor to start a franchise, do you agree?
(USA Today Sports Images)
There was a fascinating question (and answer) to soon-to-be Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Bill Parcells on a conference call.
In conference call, Bill Parcells said he would pick if he could start a franchise with one player, past or present.
— NFL: AroundTheLeague (@NFL_ATL)
It's a fun debate that strays a bit from the typical best player ever argument. I'd pick as the greatest NFL player of all time. But I'm not sure I'd start a franchise with him.
Parcells is obviously biased. Taylor helped him win two Super Bowls and get to the hall of fame. However, it's not a bad answer.
Who would you start a franchise with? Let's brainstorm some candidates:

Lawrence Taylor: Ask Parcells,Photos show Hernandez with gun, you can't go wrong here. He revolutionized a position and the way teams think of rushing the quarterback. He was an absolute terror. You probably have to consider his off-field baggage, however. We're starting a franchise here.
(USA Today Sports Images)Reggie White: He's the best two-way end of all time. His most unheralded performance was a wild-card playoff game against Detroit at the end of the 1994 season. The Packers used him inside at tackle a lot to take advantage of a matchup. Behind White's destruction of the Lions' line, Green Bay held the great had minus-one yard on 13 carries in a win. White was unbelievable against the run, and just happens to be No. 2 on the all-time sacks list.
Joe Greene: You could do a lot worse than the most dominating defensive tackle of all time in the middle of your new defense. Worked for the Steelers, who started a dynasty by drafting him first overall in 1969.
Dick Butkus: The only argument against Butkus is the modern theory that middle linebacker isn't as important as other positions,2013 NFL Preview- AFC North- Looking at Baltimore.
Ronnie Lott/Rod Woodson: Both of these guys are among the best defensive backs ever, and their ability to be great at cornerback or safety works in their favor. You'd have your important shutdown corner or your playmaking safety all rolled into one player.
Jim Brown: You shouldn't pick running backs high in the draft, but Brown might be an exception. Led the league in rushing eight of his nine seasons, scored 126 total touchdowns in 118 games, and never missed a game. You'd know what you're getting with him.
Anthony Munoz: Teams have figured out how important it is to have a dominant left tackle. You could start a franchise around the brilliant Munoz and never worry about a crucial position.
: I'll argue that he is the greatest player ever, so it's not wrong to pick him to start a franchise with. The only drawback is that it's hard to build a franchise around a receiver. There's a reason Irving Fryar and Keyshawn Johnson are the only receivers to be drafted first overall since the merger.
(USA Today Sports Images)John Elway: And now we get to the quarterbacks. Elway was a physical marvel who dragged a few mediocre Broncos teams to the Super Bowl. When he finally got the right coach and some help around him, he won two titles. If you're grading players simply on ability and not comparing careers (and his career was certainly great), it's hard to pass on Elway first overall.
Joe Montana: A four-time Super Bowl winner and a playoff resume as good as any quarterback in NFL history puts him on the list. Whether you'd pick Montana might depend on whether you think he was the reason for the 49ers' success or Bill Walsh was the mastermind behind that dynasty (if this argument was about the best coach to start a franchise, I'd take Walsh slightly over Vince Lombardi).
Tom Brady/Peyton Manning: The greatest modern-day individual NFL rivalry and argument. Manning didn't have the franchise around him (coaching staff and players) Brady did, but Manning's playoff accomplishments rank far below what Brady has done. You could argue about these guys for days.
Johnny Unitas: He was an way before it was cool for every pundit to argue whether a quarterback is elite.
If I'm on the clock to start a franchise, I take a quarterback because it's the most important position. And I take Manning slightly over Elway. Elway had the greatest combination of physical tools and production of any quarterback in NFL history and showed he can elevate an entire franchise,Rex Ryan- New York Jets plan to use Wildcat more, but Manning's value as a quarterback is unique. If more proof was needed, he transformed the Broncos' organization in one offseason. If quarterbacks are excluded I'd take White, an all-around marvel.
The list of candidates above isn't entirely complete (Sammy Baugh? Chuck Bednarik? ? Deacon Jones? Ray Lewis? Bruce Smith? Don Hutson?). So if you're on the clock starting a franchise and can choose anyone past or present , who's your pick?
