I must have been drunker than i thought cuz I sure hell don’t recall posting 19 times lol

i’ll hafta turn my eyes away when austin gets hurt

It should be almost like watching it for the first time since the online viewing was so terrible last night

The weblink someone gave was alright, but the 10 year old Broncos fans were just too much for me. Like when one said…Romo = Bin Laden

Just 1 example of the nonsense on there.

I had the computer hooked up to the TV so I could watch the internet feed on the big screen. Not the greatest clarity.

But the Cowboys really did play some vanilla offense. We’re used to seeing a lot motion, TO lining up all over the field. Not tonight. Also, the Broncos routinely rushed just 3 guys, dropping 8 back in coverage.

Man, Witten is a beast BTW.

Jacques Reeves was the #1 highlight on Sportscenter last night.

Of course, he was the guy getting hurdled by Reggie Bush.

that really makes me sad…

The MCL injury could keep Jackson out of the Vikings’ preseason game next Saturday against the Steelers but the injury isn’t considered serious enough to sideline him for the start of the regular season.

Defn interested in playing with BTBers…. unfortunately i dont think i have enough time to be a commish

Never used flea flicker, but I am definitely down to host a league/commish, if we can get the guys together.

Todd Archer at DMN blog says Austin will miss 4-6 weeks.

Miles Austin’s stellar training camp and preseason has come to an end because of a sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee suffered Saturday, and it’s unlikely he will be able to play in the regular-season opener Sept. 7 at Cleveland.
 
Generally speaking, MCL tears (anytime you hear a sprain that means something is torn, by the way) take 4-6 weeks to heal depending on the severity.

However, although this post just went up, it sounds like he’s just making an assessment based on what we already knew yesterday, not anything new from the MRI that gives us insight into the severity of the injury. I was going to make a fanpost out of this but then I realized it isn’t really news.

So hopefully we’ll hear something about the MRI soon so we’ll know whether it is more likely to be toward the low or high end of that time frame, which could make the difference of missing one regular season game vs. 3 or 4 games.

btw, the Pats are down 17-3 to the Bucs at the half, with only a 53 yard FG at the end of the half. Cassel is kind of stinking it up. I would take Brad over any of Brady’s potential backups. And their starting defense has not played well either. Just for some perspective…

Calvin Johnson looks really good.

just said Bucs don’t plan on trading Simms till after preseason’s over.

Greedy pirates!

the results were identical to yeaterday’s. What’s the point of re-airing these things????

I’m in the other fantasy league run by BTB’er accidental innuendo, and we have a few open slots. It’s on Yahoo and has unusual rules requiring serious competitors – 2 starting QBs, individual defensive players, etc. Check out his post on the subject:

There are 8 teams now but we would like to get 10 or 12. Draft is currently scheduled for this Sunday, but if we don’t get more people before then, it may be pushed back (up to the commish).

Thanks in advance to anyone interested.
