I realize it's a little early to discuss Week 2, but if you're an NFL broadcaster and you're assigned to work the Raiders/Rams game, isn't it time to update your resume'? Clearly the network doesn't hold you in very high regard.

It's a Fox game because the Rams are the away team, so I'm guessing the 80-year-old Dick Stockton with his 40-year-old toupee will be behind the mic.
An equally interesting question is what will be the distribution range for that game. It won't sell out, so there will be a blackout in the Bay Area. I'm guessing if you don't live within 75 miles of the Arch, you ain't gonna get that game. And you'll probably be thankful for that.

Yeah, this is a "fans only" game. Although St. Louis' interest in the Rams is on the rise: Sunday's game was the highest-rated since 2006. But until they start winning games consistently, there won't be much love. The stupid ass Cardinals are still selling 40,000 tickets.

Miscellaneous - Michael Vick hasn't learned anything.

Denver Post devoted 5 pages to the mediocre Broncos loss to the mediocre Jaguars. Kansas City (not to be confused with K.C.) deserved their win over the Chargers. Their special teams and defense played well. I don't remember if their offense got into the game.

All the really aggressive hitting and violent action related to the Rams at Raiders game will be in the parking lot and stands.

From Steven Jackson's twitter:
"Ok... Last time I played in Oak 2006. I scored a TD and a old lady (50yrs) throw her beer @ me. I hope she's there this wknd."
Stay classy Raider fan.

Again I leave Hightower and Best on the bench. I suck at this. And the vikings suck to.

Darth is whooping my ass with LeSean McCoy and Roddy White. Good grief.

As if I didn't have enough of a challenge this week, Als goes and gets 28 points from his defense! I suck at this, too.

God, Pat Shurmur is the worst offensive coordinator ever. Granted, Bradford's receivers are garbage, but this is just pathetic planning.

Now Shurmur decides to throw the ball more than 10 yards. When the Rams are down nine points with three minutes to play.

This is for Alz,
28 points from your defense? 17.8 from your tight end?!?
WHAT THE HELL DID I EVER DO TO YOU???

I call bullshit on Jackson's story. If she had been able to hit him with a beer from that distance, the Raiders would have signed her to play QB.

Am I supposed to tell you I switched McCoy for Benson at about 12:55 this afternoon? Or would that be bad form?

J - E - T - S! Jets! Jets! Jets!
With all the ink Mark Sanchez has gotten by now from the New York media, you'd think he won a Super Bowl, nailed Madonna and found a cure for herpes. Probably have to be in that order.

"Did you get a look at that Mexican reporter chic that came by to visit him in the locker room?"
Yes, and I watched the interview she did with Meredith Veiera the day afterwards. I think your "dumb as shit" comparison is unfair to the shit.

I love driving to work on Monday mornings after the Patriots lose.
There was a suggestion this morning that Moss and Brady have become too close and the team that doesn't employ bad actors ought to trade Moss to San Diego for Vincent Jackson.

I've been avoiding this discussion since it's pretty less than certain that Hollywood 69 is actually going to beat the Athol Marauders.
Nothing like having Windy spend 2 days discussing how bad his team is and then losing to them.

You forgot one other important quality.
More than willing to pose while wearing hardly any clothes.

Easily, the highlight of this week in the NFL was Mike Vick's take that he's like "a boxer ready to go 15 rounds" this week. A "boxer", really Mike? As in the DOG? If Goodell is making the Jets run the gauntlet for leering at a Mexican prosti *ERRR* reporter turned loose in the locker room, what do you suppose his reaction will be to a brazen dog-fighting reference from Mike?
I don't know Windy, Brandon Jacobs "accidentally" throwing his helmet 12 rows into the stands probably takes any heat off of Vick. I can't wait for the You-tube videos to begin surfacing that will actually show him launching the helmet in the stands, arguing with fans after he did it, and the steps the stadium workers had to employ to actually retrieve the helmet.
I would have returned it to him...after accidentally dropping nacho cheese and stale beer in it.

I need Brees to not go off tonight. Anyone know the weather for the Bay Area? How about 50 degrees and a driving rain?

The best part was the redneck who was cradling the helmet like a newborn baby, and then the security guy ripping it out of his hands.

Well after they watch this a few times, maybe the Pats will start throwing to my #1 draft pick and let him score some more runs.
