Let's try and keep the training camp and preseason stuff in here.

For starters, Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter were both hurt today in practice.

I went to Jags training camp last night in anticipation of seeing the Oklahoma drills and meeting the players like I do every year. The weather was bad and a heavy downpour came before practice began. Friends and I stood out in the heavy rain with our ponchos until security told people it was cancelled, so we went home. Only to find out it was simply delayed for an hour, so we went home early for nothing. I'm so pissed off now. :evil:

Son of a *****.  Just realized when the Saints play opening night, it just happens to be the same night Auburn is playing.  What are the odds both of my teams play on a Thursday night?

Pretty rare.  I really want to get up to Chiefs training camp this year but I don't think I'll be able to make it this year.

I hope everyone watched the HoF Induction.

BTW: anyone questioning Dallas' status as America's team need only pay attention to the crowd reactions.

Pretty good. Floyd Little gave an excellent speech, as did our boy. I thought the worst was Jerry Rice actually, probably because he read it the entire time and he stinks. Michael Irvin>Him.

Exact same thoughts.  Floyd Little is a natural public speaker.

we're in cahoots, alot of good small plays and zero big plays on eihter side of the ball tonight. Right as I'm posting this the LB core scores a TD! Helluva a snag, looked like Phillips grabbing balls tonight! Buehler's 49 yarder was a$$, makes me wish they would've inked Stover or let Folk ride out his bad streak last season.

Darrelle Revis might sit out 2010.  Good move or bad move?  Who's in the right?

Bad move for both parties involved. Well, when you say that Revis is the best defensive player in the leauge and the best cornerback in the league why wouldn't he want to be paid as such?

The Jets are right now. Revis has has 3 years left on his contract. He was the best last year only so I think he still has to prove he can be that good on a consistant basis.

Right, his was way worse when he actually decided to practice his speech unlike Jerry who read it off a piece of paper and sounded like he was reading it off a piece of paper. He had one tone throughout the entire speech and never showed any emotion until the end, it was pathetic. You're just being your usual hater self. I never said Emmitt gave the best speech ever, but it was good.

On the other comment you are laughing about, it obviously went right over your head. I'm not saying Irvin>>>Rice on the field, I'm talking about public speaking. Irvin gave one of the best HoF speeches in years, Rice gave one of the worst. Although, Irvin was a much better leader than Jerry Rice was. I'm not sure I would trade Irvin for Rice to those 90's teams because of his leadership alone.

Pretty obvious Kitna should be starting. At least in the red zone where Romo is awful. Actually I like that idea. Once we get into the 20...put in kitna.

Oh it was absolutely a fumble. No questions or doubts.

So on another note If Sam Bradford can throw the ball as well as he did in the game against the Patriots on consistant basis that dude could be a great QB in NFL.

Meanwhile my Pats looked pretty fxxking bad and couldn't stop the Rams for shxt.

Donnie Avery possibly out for the year:

http://www.nfl.com/preseason/story/09000d5d81a0a541/article/rams-coach-says-avery-probably-has-a-significant-knee-injury-?module=HP_headlines

He probably has a significant knee injury, whatever that means. He was wobbling very dangerously though, does not look good at all.

His injuries must've been worse than we thought. Good thing by the Bengals IMO though; he's damaged goods and doesn't seem to try when he's in a contract year.

They owe him 8 million for this year though.  I wish I could put in 4 weeks work and get paid that much.

Yeah, only one missed FG out of 10-11 attempts? I'll take that, especially since that miss came in the HoF game and it was a long kick. He's gotten better since then and hopefully it continues in the regular season.

Indeed, he's made several longer kicks, not just chip shots, so as long as he doesn't melt down in a real game he should be able to be counted on.
