Nick Fairley was probably going to be the starter anyway, but that is a devastating blow nonetheless, he was going to have a big role to play.

Ugh...so 8 weeks or so before he can play. Crud. Get well soon, bruh. :/

Well his prognosis seems to be a bit better, merely 6 weeks is what they're predicting. We'll likely get him back by the Panthers game I think. So not good, obviously, but not as bad as it could be.

Delvin Breaux and Zach Strief gave a bit of a scare, but it was just cramps because they moved practice to Houston for the preseason game Saturday.

I just don't understand how people do that. It's not like he had a problem picking up chicks, he was a wealthy NFL legend, he had his pick of anyone, and yet he drugs and rapes people? Like, wtf!? :blink:

I think some of these men are just creepy even though they don't need to drug women.

I don't think you're that far off of the X-ring/bullseye, friend!

Just figure these primo jock tockular /PRIMA-DONNAS have been coddled/ protected by ' overseers so they can produce/ preform!,, when the levey breaks/ they reach ' upper crust status',, they are delusional.

That's my learnered opinion.

In kindergarten, every child is taught, "Keep your hands to yourself." Some kids take it to heart. Some kids don't. Darren Sharper belongs to the latter half, and I pray that he learns his lesson in jail. :(

Needless to say I was pretty pleased actually SEEING him drilling his first string receivers (not that I approved of them being on the field to begin with,,, that was straight up/ no chaser JERRY JONES flash call putting them in) although I was a bit disappointed not seeing the second coming of EMMET SMITH take the field,, all in all, it was well worth the lay over(their were 2 young couples wanting me to rendezvous at the hot tub around tenish , I told them all I had was my underware,, BOTH chicks said "that's all you need" smiling,,, SHEESE, I went to sleep after the game, woke up around 1 a m.,, you snooze you lose, gentlemen)

(I'm gonna forego the prerequisite Neil young b.s. today)

I wanted the Saints to draft Dak so bad. Kid is gonna be a star and I knew it. I have a few friends who went to Mississippi State for Engineering and so I watched him, and called it. Better than his coach even because he just kept running him up the middle 80 times a game when I've seen him throw and run an offense better than that.

And on the one hand, I'm vindicated to see him perform, but on the other the Saints were rumored to be an interested party and I would've liked to see that happen.

LeVeon Bell's suspension has been reduced from four games to three.

LeVeon Bell can get a suspension reduced after he literally was proven to violate league policy but Tom Brady can't do shit about being suspended because 'it sorta kinda looks bad?' Fucking bullshit.

I think Ecclestone is worse. $2 billion in tax evasion, $100 million in bribes, praising Hitler, offering leadership to the son of a British fascist leader, suggesting women should only be allowed in F1 if they were "a black girl with super looks, preferably Jewish or Muslim, who speaks Spanish", and strong arming the UK to change rules on tobacco is hard to beat. I don't think a Goodell-Stern mega hybrid could outdo that.
