Pre-season is here!
Break out the two-a-days, let's get at it!
Now the world is right again.
The horror of the desert on Feb 3 for Pats fans is in the rear view mirror.
Everyone starts a-new.
As stated last year, two words for Pats fans, which rang
true last year, and will again ring true this year....

Tom Brady

Pats reign of cheating is over...

Fuck The Cowboys!!!

Go Eagles!!!

Best Thread period!

Good luck with Assante Samuel, he cost us another ring...
Pats fans are used to being hated, it's really ok.

Going to be another great season.Whose the darkhorse team this year?

Saints?
Bills?
Ravens?
Redskins?
???

Going to tough sledding this year for my Steelers. Toughest schedule ever and no Faneca. Think the re-tooled defense will be good as long as D Line stays healthy cause theres no depth there.Anyway good luck to all injury wise as that can riun a team before it starts.Heres a bet:

First coach fired?  My pick is Kiffin although Nolan and the St Louis guy are right there.

Nelly .....

You just couldn't wait to start this thread could ya??? ;)

I was dying to post this... ;D

FOXBORO - Tom Brady looked well-rested and relaxed during the first day of Patriots training camp. Yesterday, he told the media his mind, body, arm and ankle were all in great shape.

If you want the quarterback’s secret, he seems to have discovered a new formula to help get himself better prepared for the year ahead.

In fact, he claimed this was his best offseason yet, much of it spent away from the training room inside Gillette Stadium, where he pretty much has been a fixture during the past eight seasons.

The only trade-off?

For the first time anyone can remember, he lost his prime parking space as an offseason workout award winner.

“I gave it up. I didn’t compete for it this year,” Brady said. “I’m sure if I competed for it, I would have won. But I didn’t compete for it.”

The reason he didn’t vie for the yearly crown and coveted space can be explained by how he and his life have changed over time.

The Patriots quarterback did not openly bring up issues in his personal life - such as spending quality time with model girlfriend Gisele Bundchen, or bonding with his infant son John, who lives in California with Brady’s former girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.

Instead, he just left it for everyone to fill in the blanks.

“There’s other things that have come up in my life that I’ve had to make choices on,” Brady said. “One of the choices was to spend time away with things I don’t get the opportunity to do when I’m in the football season. It was not all vacation, though.”

Some fans might start worrying about Brady and his focus, but how can you really argue with a guy who just set the NFL record for touchdown passes in one season with 50 and led a record-setting offense?

Brady has merely evolved - from that kid who was drafted in the sixth round out of Michigan who eats, sleeps and drinks football 365 days a year, into a three-time Super Bowl champion who figured out he needs a break when the time calls for it.

He also has figured out he doesn’t need to throw the football in double sessions. One session will suffice, if that. It’s called pacing yourself for the regular season.

“Each year, I’ve learned something different. I think the goal this year isn’t to go out and see how sore my arm can get,” Brady said following the morning session, in which he threw sparingly. “I think for our team, it’s the same thing. The goal is to be ready in September, do whatever we need to do to get to that point, and that’s what our coach is going to put us through.”

Beyond his downtime, Brady was quizzed on a number of topics - including the threat of his team facing a Super Bowl hangover, his record-setting receiving corps a year later and how he felt about no longer having to face division foe and personal terror Jason Taylor on a regular basis.

The latter query drew the best out of Brady, who claimed he and left tackle Matt Light threw a celebration upon learning the news his pal Taylor had been traded from Miami to Washington.

“I think Light and I popped a cold beer when I saw the transaction,” Brady said. “We were the two most excited players in the NFL. We were hugging each other. That was awesome.”

As for the 17-14 Super Bowl loss to the Giants, and the long history of Super Bowl losers going on to have bad seasons the following year, Brady sounded like a true disciple of his coach when answering.

“We start by taking leadership from our head coach (Bill Belichick) and the example that he sets. I don’t think he is too concerned with what anybody did last year, including us,” Brady said. “He is concerned with what we did today and what we do tomorrow. That is where is all starts.”

Talk of Brady’s receiving corps focused on the element of familiarity the group now shares after a season of playing together.

“We now know what everybody can do. We know what everybody is capable of,” Brady said. “Last year when we broke the huddle, guys were running to the right or the left because that is where they had to go. They were trying to figure out how to run the routes and find out what I am looking for.

“Now when we get in the huddle, I tell Randy (Moss) what to do and he knows exactly what you are going to do,” Brady continued. “It is the same with Wes (Welker) and Jab (Gaffney). It is pretty much everybody. That leads to better execution. And if you can execute more consistently, then that

will help over the long term.”

That's the ticket Meg-Grazie!

U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this

My-my-my-my (U can't touch this) music hits me so hard
Makes me say,"oh my lord thank you for blessing me
With a mind to rhyme and two hyped feet"
It feels good
When you know you're sown
A superdope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat-uh!
U can't touch this

I told you homeboy
U can't touch this
Yeah, that's how we livin' and you know
U can't touch this
Look in my eyes,man
U can't touch this
Yo, let me bust the funky lyrics
U can't touch this

Fresh new kicks and pants
You got it like that now you know you wanna dance
So move out of your seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it's rolling
Hold on
Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's going on
Like that
Like that
Cold on a mission so fall on back
Let 'em know that you're too much
And this is a beat
They can't touch

Yo! I told you
U can't touch this
Why you standing there, man?
U can't touch this
Yo,sound the bells, school is in, sucker
U can't touch this
Give me a song or rhythm
Making 'em sweat
That's what I'm giving'em
Now they know
You talk about the Hammer, you're talking about a show
That's hyped and tight
Singers are sweating so pass them a wipe
Or a tape to learn
What it is going to take in the '90s
To burn the charts
Legit either work hard or you might as well quit

That's the word,because you know
U can't touch this
U can't touch this

Break it down

Stop. . . Hammer time

Go with the flow
It is said
That if you can't groove to this
Then you probably are dead
So wave your hands in the air
Bust a few moves, run your fingers through your hair
This is it for a winter
Dance to this an' you're gonna get thinner
Move slide your rump
Just for a minute, let's all do the bump
Bump bump bump

Yeah, U can't touch this
Look man, U can't touch this
You better get hyped
Boy 'cause you know ya can't
U can't touch this
Ring the bell, school's back in
Break it down

Stop. Hammer time

U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
Break it down

Stop. Hammer time

Every time you see me
The Hammer's just so hyped
I'm dope on the floor
And I'm magic on the mike
Now why would I ever
Stop doing this?
When others making records
That just don't hit
I've toured around the world
From London to the Bay
It's Hammer, go Hammer, M.C.Hammer, Yo Hammer
And the rest can go and play
Can't touch this

U can't touch this
U can't touch this
U can't touch this
Yeah,U can't touch this
I told you, U can't touch this
Too hype, can't touch this
Yo, we outta here, can't touch this

Well with Mike Martz as offensive coordinator at least they will show imagination. Unfortunately,they don't have anybody to throw or catch the ball.

Yes it does and it's pretty cool. All about the flyovers at NFL games. Pretty interesting,except for the fact that you have to listen to that tool Rich Eisen.

While I'm on a rant. How big of dicks are the US Army for denying the kid the Lions drafted in the 7th rd from playing,or at least trying out for the team. First they said they would allow him to play,now they are going to make him serve. You would think that the Army could use some good pub'. Espicially after the Pat Tillman tragedy.

Charmed, he did get a West Point education, thus IMHO
he is entitled to serve as more than a recruiter.  This should
have been decided straight away, agreed, it never should have
gotten this far.

Yeah I hear ya Nelly. These guys sign up and they know the rules. But supposedly the Army told him he could play and then said no. Being a 7th rd draft choice it wasn't like he was going to be a superstar. But I'm still bummed about the whole Pat Tillman thiing.

Ah, Tom Brady was a 6th round draft pick!

Oh yeah I forgot about that bum :wow

Cowboys Baby!! ;)

Yes in fact the Pats second 6th rounder that day.Luck plays a big part sometimes in dynasties.There lots of great players undrafted such as Willie Parker and many others.

Gonna be a big season, tater.

Aaron Rodgers is in a no win situation.

Well, while we wait for the drudgery of NFL preseason to start. Their will be a championship football game played on Sun.That's right I'm talking about Arena Bowl XXII. MY San Jose Sabercats VS Bon Jovi's Philadelphia Soul. Actually should be a pretty good game. Clearly the 2 best teams in the league. The 'Cats are going for back to back titles and their 4th in 7 years., GO SABRECATS. :willya

Williams Jr. to continue 'Monday Night Football'

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Hank Williams Jr., who has sung the opening theme for "Monday Night Football" since 1989, will continue the tradition this season.

ESPN spokesman Bill Hofheimer says Williams will again base the theme song on his hit "All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight."

Williams is recording the tracks this week in Nashville, Tennessee, and will shoot the video next month in Los Angeles.

"Monday Night Football" kicks off its 39th season September 8th with a doubleheader: Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers followed by Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders.

The 59-year-old Williams continued doing the theme song when the show moved from ABC to ESPN in 2006.

His other hit singles include "Family Tradition," "A Country Boy Can Survive" and "Born to Boogie."

Camp starts tomorrow.

Falcons are already in and everyone has reported. No hold outs, thanks.

Winner of the AFCN to have:

Bad start at Latrobe....key part of the Steeler defense and former all-pro Casey Hampton sent home.  Tomlin said he is too fat and out of shape.  

Huge loss.   Hampton may be a bigger part of the Steeler defense than Troy (puns intended, but true).

Getting worse along with Casey Hampton, Troy Polamalu was placed on the physically unable to perform list.

Looks like it's going to be a long year in Steeltown.

No O line, two best defensive players out (for now), toughest schedule in the league...it looks like it.  As much as the Steeler-Browns rivalry has been intense and bitter has it has been, PDMeggie may have a winner this year.  I would be happy for her.

But I have made a lot of good friends during this rivalry.

Bump for the T D.

Steeler injuries are minor and their being cautious with Troy P.Hampton is a problem because he didnt attent off season work outs and now is too fat.Tomlin is sending him a message. Hey is McGrady unsigned? Why not load up the beef.The real key for Steelers D is if Ryna Clark can come back from the spleen loss. If he does they'll be pretty solid but with O Line and schedule 9-7 is best outlook.Rveryone is all over the Browns and yes they are improving but for my money the AFCN sleeper is Ravens.They were 13-3 2 years ago and defense is still very stout.Heap healthy will make their offence go as  think they'll let Smith start and Flacco learn.Boller will be cut.

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- He didn't get his old locker or his old jersey number, but Grady Jackson is thrilled to be back with the Falcons.

The 345-pound defensive tackle signed a contract to return to the Falcons Tuesday afternoon. He originally signed with the club in 2006 but was abruptly released during the 2007 bye week. He went on to play in Jacksonville under now Falcons Head Coach Mike Smith and defensive line coach Ray "Sugar Bear" Hamilton.

With the coaching change, Atlanta became a perfect fit.

"I never had hard feelings," Jackson told reporters Tuesday. "It probably was bad the way (former head coach Bobby) Petrino did it. But it's his way... I'm back now and that's the good thing."

Jackson is an 11-year NFL veteran who has made stops with the Oakland Raiders (1997-2001), New Orleans Saints (2002-03), Green Bay Packers (2003-05), Falcons (2006-07, 2008) and Jacksonville Jaguars (2007). He has competed in 155 games while compiling 507 tackles (362 solo), 33.5 sacks, eight forced fumbles, seven fumble recoveries and a blocked PAT (2002) and field goal (1997).

The defensive tackle adds immediate skill and depth to a defense he's familiar with.

"This is where I wanted to be at and I wanted to come here with the guys I've played with... I feel like I can make an impact with them," Jackson said. "It feels great. It's the same defense we had in Jacksonville. It's a defense I know and I can go ahead and play ball."

Pro Bowl defensive end John Abraham said he lobbied for Smith to bring Jackson.

"It gives us a great centerpiece," Abraham said. "Grady was here last year and through divine intervention he's back. I think everyone is happy. I know the fans are happy. I know the team is happy. We just want to see him get on the field and do what he did last year before his early departure."

Smith said Jackson gives the Falcons a lineman ale to "gobble up space."

“I’ve been around guys that weigh in Grady’s range," the coach said. "In Baltimore we had the big tackles. He gobbles up space. He’s going to gobble up at least two blocks on plays. It’s going to allow other players to be free. When you design a defense you try to get an unblocked defender at the point of attack and he’ll help us in that way. "

Jackson will be on the practice field Wednesday in jersey No. 91.

I see Whineslow Stud is back.After 7 years of top 5 picks looks like you'll field a decent team this year.For the first half anyway until Shaun Rogers quits like he always does.Good luck should be a helluva ride in the AFC North but beware the Ravens.

Nice to see some other AFCN fans here (rob, keef, moonie, etc), not so nice to see some others (K2Dud), but GK, the Ravens 2 starting OT's are questionable and/or injured already, so I'm not expecting much more than a .500 season, probably good enough for 2nd place behind Pitt's 9-7.  Should be a fun season, though, playing against the AFC South and NFC East (meaning lots of visiting fans, like the Deadskins' and Shegles', at the games!)

The unmarked money is no longer on the Pats, given all the departures.

Thanks Trowaway.  I talk a lot of shit during the season, but don't take it personally.  Ask the Pasties around here.

Anyway, 9-7 seems reasonable to win the division.  The division games are going to be huger than usual this year, beacuse of the out of division S.O.S.

hey what's up with Joe Flacco.  I remember him here at Pitt.  He was a big recruit.  However, he had no chance of ever starting at Pitt, since they signed Tyler Palko (Most famous for dropping the F-bomb live on NBC after he led Pitt to a come from behind victory at Notre Dame).   Palko was a PA high school legend quarterback (shades of Ron Powlus).

After Flacco left Pitt, I never heard of him until the NFL draft scouting reports came out.  My heart nearly stopped.

Departures?
If you are talking ASSante Samuel, not an issue.
Besides, he's on the PUP list, with a bum hammy, so no big whop.
Junior Seau?  As much as he is a leader, replaceable
Anyone is replaceable, Mooninator...

If he is reinstated (which they have to do) and reports I think he counts like 12 mil against the cap.He may force them to cut him and he signs with Vikes.He's been an ass though for 3 years running.

Yeah, I agree he has been an ass lately.  I am a Packer fan (well behind the Steelers), and a Farve fan.  I remember his "coming out" game against the Steelers after the Pack benched the Magic Man.

I would hate to see him go out like Franco.

Limus had a rocky start at training camp.  Problem solved.  He needed glasses.

are they seriously gonna pay butthead 20M to stay retired, seriously?

I have wondered if that type of after playing days payment could be used by teams to get around the salary cap.You know teams loaded with older stars who seem to accept below market to play there.Perhaps with a wink and nod of money or cushy jobs after retirement.

HOSCHTON, Ga. -- Roddy White caught two touchdown passes from two different quarterbacks but it was the Falcons defense that won the first Friday Night Lights scrimmage at Mill Creek High School.

The inter-squad game -- the first event of Allstate All-Access Weekend -- drew more than 10,200 fans to this suburban Atlanta stadium. Head Coach Mike Smith developed a unique scoring system for the scrimmage, which came down to the final play.

With the score tied at 28 Smith offered to award the game-winning point to the side that converted on fourth-and-4. Quarterback Joey Harrington broke the huddle, took the snap and faced pressure from the defense. His pass fell incomplete, giving the defense the victory in what could be the first of many preseason matches under the Friday night lights.

"This was a great crowd," Smith said in a post-scrimmage address to the stadium. "I appreciate you coming out."

Smith and the team's four quarterbacks wore microphones for the event. The offense and defense faced off in separate series begining with the two first teams going head-to-head. A kickoff return for a touchdown by Jerious Norwood brought the crowd to its feet, but first-teamers practicing against each other in a live scrimmage added an electric atmosphere.

Players were thrilled with the support and happy to bring back some of their own high school memories.

"This is probably the nicest football facility I've seen," rookie quarterback Matt Ryan said. "It's a lot of fun for us to get out here tonight."

"I didn't know the fans would be out here with so much enthusiasm," added running back Michael Turner. "It feels good to be back playing football on a Friday night."

The offense started slow and quarterback Chris Redman's second pass was intercepted by linebacker Michael Boley (a three-point play under Smith's scoring system). But the team's balanced out as the scrimmage continued.

Harrington led a scoring drive finished off with the first of two White touchdown grabs. Ryan opened the second half with the first-team offense and promptly hooked up with White on a 60-yard bomb for a score.

Fans were also treated to halftime contest, frisbee dog performances, a skydiving team and fireworks. The Falcons will also host a free event tomorrow at the Georgia Dome. Roam the Dome will feature a mock game and glimpses of the team's newly-renovated home.

But it will be tough to top the passion of playing on Friday night.

"Our guys have come out and competed every day," Smith said. "I'm really excited about our guys. They're excited about the game of football and they're great to be around."

Other highlights and news from the field included:

Ryan got his first work of the evening with the second-team offense only he had to work against the first-string defense. His first play of the evening was a play-action pass under pressure from Boley. The quarterback was flagged for intentional grounding.
Chevis Jackson worked as the first-team nickel back.
Rookie defensive end Kroy Biermann got the first sack of scrimmage, exploding over the right side and sending Shockley running out of the pocket.
Chauncey Davis picked up a point for the defense with a sack of Redman.
Jamaal Anderson picked up a sack and forced a fumble; he swatted the ball out of Redman's extended throwing hand (a four-point play).
Fireworks came out again when Shockley hit Jason Snelling on a short pass on the next series. The second-year man sprinted down the sideline for what appeared to be a 60-yard touchdown. But Smith called the play back on a holding penalty.

DJ Shockley is a very good Madden QB.

The Falcons should be forced to play on Fridays because they will be a high school caliber team this year.

The soap opera continues:

Favre leaves Lambeau, maybe Packers
By CHRIS JENKINS, AP Sports Writer
44 minutes ago
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP)—The bond between Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers appears to be broken beyond repair.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Tuesday evening that after approximately six hours of what he called “brutally honest” conversations with Favre over the past two days, the three-time MVP just isn’t in the right mind-set to be part of the team.

Even with the chance to win his starting job back potentially on the table, McCarthy said Favre couldn’t seem to get past emotional wounds that were opened as tensions mounted in recent weeks.

“The football team’s moving forward,” McCarthy said. “The train has left the station, whatever analogy you want. He needs to jump on the train and let’s go. Or, if we can’t get past things that have happened, I have to keep the train moving.”

McCarthy said he and Favre made plans to speak later Tuesday evening, but McCarthy didn’t seem to allow for the possibility that anything significant would change.


A trade could be coming next, with Tampa Bay re-emerging as a potential destination after seemingly being eliminated from consideration in recent weeks.

Packers officials have believed throughout the past month that Favre’s preference is to play for the Minnesota Vikings, but Favre could reconsider a trade to Tampa Bay—or elsewhere—if Green Bay holds firm in its commitment not to trade him to a division rival.

McCarthy wouldn’t address trade talks, but did say a quick resolution to the situation is important to the rest of his players.

“Absolutely,” McCarthy said. “The players, they want it resolved. Even talk to Brett about it—he feels bad about it. It’s time for them to talk about somebody else.”

Favre left Lambeau Field just before Packers practice Tuesday afternoon, taking a right turn out of the stadium’s back gate and heading away from the field where the rest of his teammates were assembling for drills.

Favre emerged from the stadium’s loading dock exit at 2:34 p.m. EDT Tuesday, hugging Packers senior security advisor Jerry Parins before getting in his SUV and driving away. Shortly after, an SUV driven by Packers general manager Ted Thompson left the gate heading in the same direction.

“We’re at a stalemate,” Favre told ESPN Tuesday morning. “Mike and I both agreed last night that me being out there is a distraction and will continue to be a distraction. We all know the reason I’m here is because the commissioner reinstated me so we have a lot of things to figure out. It’s simple and complicated, both at the same time.”

McCarthy said Favre was excused from practice Tuesday, adding that he wouldn’t have practiced with the team anyway because of an abdominal strain found in his physical examination Monday. McCarthy did not say whether Favre would be fined if he stayed away from camp starting Wednesday.

Favre told ESPN he doesn’t have a problem with competing with Rodgers for the starting job, and can “truly understand” why McCarthy would make Rodgers the starter. But Favre also said a competition “probably isn’t going to work” and that “the problem is that there’s been a lot of damage done and I can’t forget it.”

Did Favre not feel wanted or welcome enough by the Packers?

“That’s part of the issue with him, quite frankly,” McCarthy said. “And listening to him talk about that, you respect his opinion. And frankly, I told him, I said, ‘I’ll take responsibility because I have a voice in the building.’ I never thought he truly was going to play. I thought he was emotionally driven for other reasons.”

AP - Aug 4, 3:28 pm EDT
McCarthy said Favre was “very convincing” in their conversations about his desire to play Monday night and Tuesday. But McCarthy still seemed to have reservations about Favre’s commitment to preparation.

Would Favre continue to stay at Lambeau late at night to study film, a major factor in his success last season?

“That was a very good question for him,” McCarthy said. “He’s in a tough spot right now.”

McCarthy also didn’t seem convinced that Favre was thinking clearly about his future.

“He has a lot going through his head, and I think he’s emotional,” McCarthy said. “And just talking to him, he’s in a tough spot.”

So, of course, are McCarthy and Thompson. Correctly or not, they might end up being seen by fans as the men who drove Favre out of Green Bay.

“That’s not a good feeling, but I don’t view it that way,” McCarthy said. “I can only trust the truth. I’ve been part of a lot of conversations, and I don’t feel that’s the case.”
AP - Aug 4, 3:27 pm EDT
Rodgers, meanwhile, stuck to his mantra of not worrying about things he can’t control.

“I just know we were out at practice today, and he wasn’t there, and I’m the starter,” Rodgers said. “So that’s where we’re going right now.”

Speaking to reporters after Tuesday’s practice, Rodgers stood just a few feet away from a locker with a “FAVRE” nameplate above it, stocked with shoulderpads and other equipment. It hadn’t been used—and now might never be.

Cornerback Charles Woodson had a hard time imagining the Packers trading such an iconic player.

“Everything went kind of sour a few weeks or a month back, but you never felt like it would get to the point or to the talks of him actually being traded,” Woodson said. “I felt once he stepped back in here, he would be the quarterback. Him not being here today, I guess management has a different route. So at that point, we’ve got to go out and do our job.”

Lot of hoopla for a so-so quarterback...

To make it even luckier Brady was actually the Pats second 6th round pick that year.Imagine if Steelers had taken him in the 5th round instead of the forgettable Tee Martin who never even made the cut.

Brady in all likelihood would have rotted on the bench in Pittsbutgh.  The Steelers were so in love with Kordell Stuart at that time.  The Steelers could never draft quarterbacks.  In that last 50 years one was great, one appears to be heading for greatness, and the rest were mediocre at best.

This trade does bolster the AFC East, which was a cake-walk for the past years, although the Farve Network-ESPN will make you think he's the second coming of Joe Montana.  
It's a good trade to get him out of Green Bay, but lots of learning with the J E T S.
I still feel it's between Pats-Bills, for the Phins are far away, and Farve does not take
to long meetings for training well, especially given the offensive coach, head coach are
younger than him.....I'm sure he'd rather be in a duck blind, somewhere in the swamps of Jersey instead of looking at video...

Farve's all washed up. Why don't these guys just go out with grace and style? The Jet's might get one or two good seasons out of him though. When Montana left the 49'ers he didn't do shit. Same with Ervin and Jerry Rice. You gotta know when to quit.

Having siad that the Stones are still around.

Being a Packers fan, I'm glad the whole thing is over with.  Brett was the ass in this whole mess.  He was given every chance up until June to come back.  

He'll play a season or two for the Jets, and nobody will remember.  (See Motel's examples, Franco Harris(Seahawks), OJ Simpson (49ers), Willie Mays (Mets), ect....

Anyway the Niners should get some picks from the all-time interception leader.  Bill Curry said it best about Brett's interception record.  It is a sign of his greatness, if he was not that good he would never have had the chance to throw that many interceptions.

This season is shaping up to be a demolition for the Steelers.  They have the poise.  They have the moxie.  They have both the poise and the moxie to make this a Steeler Supe Bash with the Stones II.

Young was the third overall draft pick for the Titans in the 2006 draft.  Limas was injured for most of the time after Young went pro, or he would have been picked a lot higher.  He is said to be fully recovered and better than ever now.  Could be a steal for the Steelers.

Yeah, the Giants picked up Carr and cut Jared Lorenzen, aka J-Load aka The Hefty Lefty aka The Pillsbury Throwboy.
Unfortunately his nicknames were better than he was.

Henson got cut by the Vikings last year.
Couldn't beat out Tarvaris Jackson, so it's safe to say he's a two sport bust...

Michael Vick's post-prison job prospects look pretty good
By MJD
Most guys in Cell Block D don't have a plan this good, but most guys in Cell Block D aren't Mike Vick.

Michael Huyghue, the commissioner of the upstart United Football League, which plans to start play in 2009, is chomping at the big to throw millions at Vick. He sees Vick as the star attraction of his soon-to-be fledgling league.

From Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback:


The big news, I suppose, from my talk with Huyghue was this: He said the chances of a UFL team signing Michael Vick to play the 2009 season are "98 percent.'' Strange percentage, but that's what he said.

"Michael's not going to be able to walk right back into the NFL,'' Huyghue said. "He's going to need some kind of buffer before he signs in the NFL, and we'll be able to provide that for him.''

I don't know if Vick's going to need a buffer or not, but he is going to need cash. And I can't see any NFL team giving him more than the veteran's minimum, whereas the UFL could conceivably pay him in the neighborhood of $4 million a year. The prestige of being an NFL player is nice, but not being broke is probably a higher priority.

And it would be completely worth it for the UFL, too, even if Vick is never the player he once was. The attention and curiosity he'll generate is something they won't be able to get from any other player, I don't care who they pluck off an NFL roster.

PATRIOTS NOTEBOOK
Offensive bar set high for Moss & Co.
By Christopher L. Gasper, Globe Staff  |  August 16, 2008

FOXBOROUGH - Randy Moss now knows how the cornerbacks lined up across from him feel before the snap of the ball - nervous.

Speaking yesterday in a team setting for the first time since the Patriots' Super Bowl XLII loss in February, Moss admitted being nervous about trying to equal the offensive output that he and his teammates produced in 2007, when Moss notched an NFL-record 23 touchdown receptions, Tom Brady had a league-record 50 TD tosses, and the Patriots set NFL marks for points (589) and touchdowns (75).

"I'm actually kind of nervous, and the reason why is that I think [about] what we did last year as a whole unit," said Moss, who in his first season in New England had 98 catches for a franchise-record 1,498 yards. "We're going to try to come out and put points on the board because that's what we're coached and asked to do, but the expectation, the bar is set so high here - not by you all, not by the fans, but by the coaches and the team."

In an interview that only lasted three questions - the number of queries Moss stated he would field before the session began - Moss touched on why he returned to the Patriots, his comfort level in his second season with the team, and the chances of he and the Patriots' offense topping their historic 2007 campaign.

"We have high expectations for this offense, and this team as a unit, but what we did last year I don't think we can really live and dwell off that because that was last year," said Moss. "Like I said, it's a little bit of nervousness because I know how high the bar is here."

During the offseason, Patriots fans were nervous about Moss's possible departure. The 31-year-old Moss, who took a pay cut to play for the Patriots last season, flirted with leaving Brady and coach Bill Belichick behind when the Eagles offered him a lucrative deal, but he ultimately took less money to keep the Randy Renaissance in Foxborough, signing a three-year, $27 million deal ($14.1 million in bonuses and guarantees).

The end of the Patriots' undefeated season at the hands of the Giants in the Super Bowl tugged at him to return.

"I just think that first and foremost we have some unfinished business," said Moss. "I like the camaraderie around here, especially in the locker room, on the field. We've got a great group of guys in the locker room. I think that's all you can ask for - and coaching. Coach Belichick understands football and understands his players and really puts us together as one. We come together as a team, and that's what you can definitely respect playing in this profession, playing in this league."

Despite Moss's anxiety regarding an encore, Brady said that Moss, who has been dominating camp with a series of highlight receptions, is actually ahead of where he was last year at this time. In 2007, Moss missed more than a month of preseason practices and sat out all four exhibition games after suffering a leg injury early in camp.

"The good thing that I can really say about our offense, and I'm speaking for myself, is that you had guys that came in late, myself, Chad Jackson was hurt last year, and [Wes] Welker coming in last year, so for us to have a whole offseason, a training camp to really understand the offense and the concept, is really scary," Moss said.

Brady takes a big step forward
Quarterback practices with no wrap on foot
By Mike Reiss and Michael Vega, Globe Staff  |  August 21, 2008

FOXBOROUGH - After missing Sunday night's exhibition game at Tampa Bay and two practices because of a sore right foot, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady rejoined his teammates for at least part of yesterday's full-pads workout at Gillette Stadium.

Brady was present and accounted for during the 15-minute media access portion, taking part in stretching, some light throwing, and handoffs.

Unlike the week of the Super Bowl, when pictures showed Brady's injured right ankle heavily wrapped, there was no such visible cushioning on his foot. He did not appear limited in his movements.

Brady's presence does not ensure he will play tomorrow night against the Eagles.

Asked if there was an update on Brady before practice, Bill Belichick said he was day to day, which has been the coach's standard response regarding injured players.

The right foot is important for a righthanded quarterback like Brady because it's the foot used at the end of the dropback to push off and accelerate forward.

************

The telling line here is "Belichick said he was day to day"  which is code that Brady is ok...

He didn't have a crash on a motorcylce, did he?

In all of the hoopla about injuries to his legs, not one
reporter has asked if it has anything to do with his
present girlfriend.....

This just in from ESPN.com- The Atlanta Falcons are bringing sexy back.

Please Some Guy, get it right, it's the FARVE Network.
Sorry, I've watched Matty Ryan @ BC, however, unless
he's got some dog issues in his background, Farve wins...

craigslist.

We're having a "meet n' greet" with the New England Patriots cheerleaders at our local county fair the first thursday of September. I'm gonna hafta shine my shoes I guess, comb my hair, shave, brush my teeth before I go and all that good stuff.

The great white hope looked good for the Falcons last night.

No, I was too intoxicated.

Can't find much news on the game, not even at McMillen's.  Despite the lack of information, I'm telling everyone it was a performance indicative of a Super Bowl win, which I am also predicting.

Steelers O Line was exposed with up the middle pressure forcing Ben to scramble and throw too quickly.With the quality of defenses they will face this year expect it to be a continual problem.I think Leftwich makes the team and poor Batch gets cut.Dixon stays for future trade bait.Defense will be fine once Troy is back and they actually use some blitz packages versus the vanilla they use in pre-season.Mehndenhall better learn to hang on to the rock though.Poor game though for both teams offensively although Vikes had starting QB out.Next week the scubs fight for the final 3-4 roster spots.Sweed looks okay although wont be a factor this year.The whole 2008 draft looks suspect versus what the real team needs are which is improved line play and D Line depth.

I stopped over at McMillen's today.  What is the deal?  Is that place on lockdown of sumthing?  Last year people arguing, fighting, getting fired up.  The year its like A Pittsburgh baseball Buccos board.  

Where has Highball Rob been.  Do I have to call him?  I was even going to take him to a game this year.

Yes it does and not a moment too soon.Cant wait.Giants are only 3.5 faves?..This has mortgage bet written all over it.Bookies have Pats at -16 and climbing.Guess they learned from last year.

Brady Sr. touches on his son's foot injury
Posted by Mike Reiss, Globe Staff September 3, 2008 05:40 PM

Tom Brady Sr. was surfing the World Wide Web this morning when he came across information that his son, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, had an MRI in mid-August that revealed a cracked bone in his right foot.

The information ran counter to what Brady Sr. had previously discussed with his son.

“He did tell us that he had stress on the bone, and that’s why he wore a [protective] boot for a day – one day,” Brady Sr. said. “He has never told us that he had any broken bones or fractured bones in his foot. All I knew is that he had stress on a bone, and there is a difference there.”

Brady Sr., who flew into New England Tuesday night in anticipation for the Patriots’ season-opening game against the Chiefs on Sunday, acknowledged that he has not directly asked his son anything further about his injury, so there is a possibility that the information about a cracked bone is accurate.

Based on their previous discussions, Brady Sr. said of his son’s condition that “to the best of my knowledge, there is nothing with his body right now that is going to keep him out of one game for one second.” He also believes that “if there was a broken bone in his foot, they wouldn’t have him doing agility drills.”

Brady Sr. said he saw his son last night and that he is “in fine shape” and “this is nothing that is going to impact him at all.”

“He’s extraordinary optimistic and raring to go,” he added. “He’s champing at the bit."

Brady fully participated in the Patriots' practice on Wednesday, and coach Bill Belichick, speaking with Kansas City-based reporters, said that he expected Brady to be "ready to go" for the season opener.

Giants get it done in a workmanlike fashion. Opening drive was brilliant. After that it was all business. Giants and the under works very well for me. Although I did expect a bit more out of the 'Skins. But then again,with little Danny Snyder as the owner. It won't upset me too much.

NFC championship: Giants vs Vikings?

Pats have a tough opponent in the Chiefs this weekend.
They are a smart, talented team.
They are explosive on offense, with a new qb
They are well coached, by Herm Edwards, who is familiar
with our team, during his time with the J E T S.
Lots our team is still coming together.
We had a good pre-season, although we did not win anything.
Tom Brady is 100%
We need to not get ahead of ourselves, take one game at a time.

Nellie.. I was waiting for this post.Despite your caution I suggest that we all take our Gints profit and double up minus the 16 or so points. I think Pats throw a shutout here and win 27-0.

Thanks GK.  We are not underestimating the Chefs.  They are a formidable opponent.
They play well in all three facets of the game. I would look for a close game.
Coach Edwards did say most of his team has not played at the Razor, that
they need to be prepared for the stadium.  Trop Storm Hanna could be a factor.
SCL, I'd be getting ahead of myself by noting a score..

Believe it or not I am a Niners fan.   I remember being in grade school and my dad took me to my high school's games.  One game this quarterback from Ringgold high school destroyed us.   Last year when I was coaching my nephew's team, my nephew scored his first touchdown at Legion Field in Donora PA.  The same field where some Notre Dame/Niners quarterback learned the game.  I brought a tear to my eye.  Stan the Man Musial also played there.

I don't know.  The water had no effect on me.   I was QB for one game in high school (because of injuries to others), believe it or not against Joe Montana's Ringgold.  I was destroyed.  I still have bruises to prove it.

Maybe Sirmoonie has the answers, since he lived a few blocks away from Dan Marino.

Pats, despite Tom going down on the 2nd series of the game, extended their regular season
streak to 20 games.  No word on Brady as of this time, however, probably out two-three weeks.
Cassel filled in good, found his groove with a bomb to Randy Moss in the 2nd qtr.
All in all, Pats played good in all three facets of the gaem.  You never want to see
anyone hit the ground, so, time will tell about Tom.
