Patriots lost safety Tank Williams for the season when he suffered a severe knee injury on Thursday night. Damn exhibition games!!
THIS is why I am not fond of pre-season games.
This is also exactly why Moss, Brady, and Welker aren't playing in them.

Looks like the Steelers just signed Leftwich to a 1 year contract.
ESPN - Steelers sign quarterback Leftwich, punter Berger to deals - NFL

BTW, no games scheduled for today 8/10/08
Hooray! It's about time we joined the party.
And you'd better believe I will have the sound turned down on the TV and the Bengals radio network on. No ESPN yapping about you-know-who for me.
Brainfry,
what's wrong with ESPN talking up Carson Palmer?
Aha, you sly devil! Let me rephrase that just in case I was, er, misinterpreted:
"I won't have to listen to ESPN yapping about you-know-who."
My next door neighbor (Stillers fan) actually prefers Batch over Toothlisberger, btw.
Could you please give me the Bengal radio network link. I too would like to save myself from the ESPN lovefest.
:haha:haha:haha:haha:haha OMG, This is priceless:
JOHNSON WANTS TO BE OCHO CINCO, LEGALLY
Posted by Michael David Smith on August 12, 2008, 7:24 p.m. EDT
Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson was fined $5,000 for wearing “Ocho Cinco” on the back of his jersey before a game in 2006.
To avoid getting fined, Johnson hasn’t done it since then. But Johnson now has a plan for how he can get away with having “Ocho Cinco” spelled out over the “85? on his back.
We’ve learned that Johnson has taken the first steps in the state of Florida toward legally changing his last name to Ocho Cinco.
Seriously.
If Johnson follows through on this, his actual, legal name will be Chad Ocho Cinco, and the NFL would then (we assume) allow him to put his new last name on the back of his jersey.
From a business standpoint, this might be Chad’s way of picking up some of the extra cash that he wants to make but that the team has said it won’t give him. The jersey would instantly become one of the NFL’s top sellers, and NFL players get a cut of all sales of their jerseys.
In recent interviews, including one on ESPN Monday night, Johnson has made veiled references about future plans that he has said will change the way fans think about him. This is a strange one, to say the least.
