I wish I could be a sportswriter for my career. It must be so much fun to make up any trade scenario and try to break it as credible news. Super shuffle? McNabb, Briggs swap makes sense – Rumors – NFL – Yahoo! Sports

Went to the Brewers-Twins game last night.  Few odd, but notable experiences. Gabe Gross batting leadoff.  Nothing like seeing a guy barely batting over .200 coming up to start out the order – his “praise Jesus” music blasting and all. I should have asked to trade my Paul Molitor bobblehead for a Boof Bonser one.…

So some “unnamed source” is saying that Favre has decided to change his troublesome ways of late and show up for camp. Suddenly his image to the team/fans/league is more important than his family life and grudge with Packer management. Whatever the reason, I say good job to the Packers for finally slapping this guy…

ESPN.com: SPORTSNATION – 709 You must rank five to submit your ballot I’m having a hard time with that part… The top 3 QB’s in the NFL are no sweat. In no particular order I think it’s safe to say Brady, Elder Manning and Drew Brees are tops. Carson Palmer is probably after them. Who…

ESPN.com – NFL – Favre bummed that Moss not playing for Packers At one point, Favre even said he wanted a trade out of Green Bay.  You know what?  I say trade him.  There are plenty of teams dumb enough to pay top dollar for a past-his-prime QB.  The Dolphins might give up their next…

Tons can be said about the bargain that the Pats got with Randy Moss. Tons will be said about how he should have gone to Green Bay. There will be endless speculation from now until Fall about whether Moss will continue his Oakland trend and have 30-40 catches or be reborn with 70+ catches. All…

Kendrick Allen Colin Cole Cullen Jenkins Johnny Jolly Ryan Pickett Devarick Scandrett Corey Williams That’s seven players at defensive tackle on the Packers roster going into the draft. With the 16th overall selection in the 2007 draft, they added number eight. You can now put Justin Harrell on that list. A strong, but not terribly…

Will Shields Announces Retirement Willie Roaf left last year, Casey Wiegmann is likely to retire and now Shields is gone. What are the Chiefs going to do? There’s no instant improvement to be had on the offensive line via the draft and there’s no way they are going to pick up enough players at this…

I don’t think I’ll be able to watch.  Maybe Rex Grossman and Peyton Manning can somehow break both of their throwing arms in at least 15 places during warmups.  Or maybe Prince will pull out a gun and simply murder Manning.  Too far?

I’m pumped about games today. I know, it’s almost 7:30PM EST, but thanks to my genius idea of DVR’ing the games and watching them back without all the commercials, sideline commentary and halftime shows means that I have no idea what has happened so far. Anyway, even though the Bears are still in it, I…
