Former Jets center Kevin Mawae, now with the Titans, has been elected president of the NFL Players Association, a post previously held by cornerback Troy Vincent.
Vincent has moved up to assistant executive director, and could be on a path to one day succeed Gene Upshaw as head of the players union.
Mawae's election is a good choice by the players. He is an extremely intelligent player, cares about what happens to his NFL brethren, and is respected around the league by players and executives for his honesty and candor.

I still remember the time he put the yellow tape up to avoid him and his lineman talking to the media.
I thought that was funny and cool how he was protecting his teammates from the likes of you and Berger j/k. (j/k means joking in case you dont have any kids or young textable relatives)
Did the jets sign Bubba Franks?
Does he have anything left?
My memory of Mawae was him getting out in front on sweeps...a pulling center - never remember seeing that - and also the time he played with this gigantic cast thing on one hand.
Thanks for the j/k tip, RichieG. I have kids and young textable relatives, so I was aware of it.
btw, lol on ur comment.
Roscoe:
The Jets did sign Franks. I don't think he has much left. Mawae one of the best centers you'll ever see.
OK Bob, just trying to help. I feel bad about the whole Plexico fight we had.
And what does btw and lol mean??
Richie G:
Please do not feel badly about the Plax situation. It is no big deal at all, and really never was.
I suspect that if you use j/k you have to know what btw (by the way) and lol (laughing out loud) mean. If not, then perhaps we have provided a useful service for you.
Really, no big deal on Plax. Your conscience should be clear ... at least until the next time you disagree with me!!
j/k
WTF?
What's the BFD

Not sure if you'll see this but I know. I was only joking and definitely knew what those other stuff meant, though I never use lol becaue I think its sorta un-manly.
