I'm finally going to get that league set up in the next couple hours, so if anyone else is still interested let me know. Got two from here so far, & I think I'll have two more spots open. I was convinced Rejus Benn would be a Pro-Bowler, & seriously thought he'd finally put together a full dominant season this year. Since HS he's been bitten pretty hard by the injury bug. For a physical WR like Benn, that's not good. If you want to kill a few minutes, check out his recruiting/HS videos. Dude was a stud. Can't remember the school, but it was in DC. domrep might know. Dunbar, went to school at Illinois. Illinois had a pipeline of talent coming from Dunbar. Yea, he had shoulder problems at Illinois, & never really lived up to his potential there. Didn't know that about Dunbar/IL. I only barely pay attention to them though since I'm Michigan fan. Coincidentally there's a Dunbar HS here too.

Downpour in Tampa.
If you're the Bucs or the Ravens, as dangerous as this rain is, do you tell your guys to play it out even though it's a pointless game, or do you have your guys do nothing and avoid injury while looking bad?

Bench the starters & key back ups. I didn't even realize this game was on national TV.

Couple browns players making the team tonight. Also, is preseason the browns favorite time of year?

Bears placed CB Kelvin Hayden on injured reserve with a torn left hamstring, ending his season. I may not be a Bears fan, but this upsets me because Hayden was a long-time Colt. On the plus side (for me at least), the Colts injury report page currently is empty (it should not be as there are 5 players currently hurt, but maybe the injuries aren't severe). Then again, the Colts managed to get a decade's worth of injuries crammed into the 2011 season. I recall that they literally had over 20 players go on injured reserve that year (and Manning was left on the roster that year as well). I would have never guessed that a team could get that many injuries while playing in a good stadium. I believe that with the coaching change a change in strength and conditioning coaches must have been made as well. It made a difference last year. BTW, I cannot help but to wonder if the massive number of ACL injuries is not a byproduct of usage of HGH or some other PED.

Plaxico Burress suffered a torn rotator cuff in his shoulder during Thursday's camp practice, and is likely done for the year.

Everyone in the NFL is either out for the year or in jail right?

Even though I'm a Colts fan I dig it for sure. About this time I get excited to watch any football, but then after watching the first pre-season game it wanes a bit. It must be similar to a heroin addict getting a weak dose or something. It stops the shakes but that's about it haha. I know what you mean. I've watched the CFL a few times this year for that same reason. Ok, this is getting ridiculous. Just got done working & will be home in about an hour. However, all I can think about is a week one pre freakin' season game! I'm as excited for tonight as I would be for opening day of the regular season! I didn't have much to do the last couple hours, and I keep looking at the clock. Not for when my day ends, but because I keep counting down in my mind to kick off... WTF, it IS like a drug addiction!!! Maaaaan.
