This was a sad scene from the Vikes game. I really felt bad for old man winter. Up until this point, Favre had a good game, 22-32 for 259 yds and a not his fault pick. If It wasnt for a clear pass interference on a Randy Moss TD, this would have been a different game. But instead Favre got chin checked, Randy Moss got waived, and Adrian Peterson got Tavaris Jackson to look forward to next year.
Speaking of Moss - Did Randy lose a step or do teams not even let him get going? Does he still pose that deep threat that he did in 2007 or is it the mystique? Not taking a swipe at Moss which I love, but is their any debate anymore of which "diva" WR you would want this late in there career: Moss or TO? Hands down, TO is showing that he still has "it" and he runs all the routes, but he doesn't make slot WR better like Moss. Pick your poison.
Around the NFL - McNabb is headed to free agency and a possible stint at Oakland County Jail (with the new look Raiders). Is Jamarcus Russell the answer in Washington....really? Can we give Raheem Morris coach of the year for the 5-2 Bucs even though they havent beat one team with a winning record? It still is much better than year's past. The Bucs probably have the easiest schedule in the league and are headed to a first round exit in the playoffs. Dallas is done.
NBA Week 1 Recap - The Lakers....well are still the team to beat. Dwight Howard has some post moves, but does that hurt the overall team scope of Orlando where the shooters need touches just as much as Howard does now? The Heat are one hell of a work in progress. Despite losing the biggest opening season game in league history, they have bounced back nicely. Monta Ellis and the Warriors might lead the league in scoring and defensive pts allowed. Blake Griffin is going to lead the league in freakishly amazingly scary OMG WTF moments this year.
