Let's see: 1.) Super Mario, 2.) Kelsay, 3.) Anderson, 4.) K. Williams, 5.) Dareus, 6.) Kyle Moore, 7.) Johnson, 8.) can't believe I'm saying this- Dwan Edwards- though his contract may see him cut for youth 9.) Merriman, and 10.) Heard I'm thinking the cut group is Dwan Edwards, Troupe, and Carrington. 1 of these 3 stays, the other 2 are gone. Dwan Edwards has NFL experience, but seldom makes a difference and has a nasty contract, for a back-up, IMO. Troupe and Carrington are developmental, but have not shown anything as Troupe has been nothing but injured and Carrington is improving but at a snails pace. Prediction: Dwan Edwards and Troupe are cut, Carrington stays for 1 more year to see if he finally can play.

It's a gimmick. Bottom line. What I don't get, is- with the exception of the Fred Jackson TD throw 2 seasons ago- if you come out every time and run the same type of play (QB runs with ball), then that sort of defeats the whole purpose of running the gimmick in the first place. If its purpose is to confuse a defense, then there has got to be some versatility built into it. Brad Smith can't just keep running it.

"Dude" (if that is your real name), you can't seriously believe this. The old hag that spills coffee on herself...she had no responsibility, no prior knowledge that coffee was hot? She needs a label to tell her that? This dumb chick doesn't know that the color black attracts the suns rays? What, she was absent in science class the day this was being covered? You think that a label is going to prevent stupidity? This is gold digging at its ugliest. The good thing: it's in Texas, where common sense values still reside. If this was in NY or CA, oh boy. The bad news: although this should be thrown out, and her joke of an attorney should be laughed right out of court with her, it probably will not. Where do we draw the line as a society? When does a person become responsible for their actions? How are the Cowboys and Jerry Jones negligent? To be considered negligent you need to have a 1.) Duty Owed, 2.) Duty breached, 3.) Proximate cause, and 4.) Damages. The Cowboys have a duty to inform people that sitting on a black bench in 100+ heat could be hot? REALLY?!?!? Even if you were a complete Alien idiot from another planet, you should have felt the discomfort as soon as you sit down. If it was that hot, wouldn't the proper response would have been to quickly exit said chair? IF she sat there longer than 2 seconds she bears responsibility for not mitigating her "damages".

WAITAMMINIT!! Swedish...female...HANDBALL...team?!?!?!? Man, yet another reason why I would like to visit Sweden! I can agree with what you are saying in an overall sense; any athletic event or participation can cause injury. Heck, simple jogging causes injuries to alot of people (weight pounding on joints like knees, hips, ankles, etc), so logically if you up the ante (speed, intensity), and frequency (repeated practice) it stands to reason that one can get hurt easier. But you've got admit, however, that running full-speed into Ray Lewis and Haloti Ngata is not a one-and-done type of thing. You get up to do it again. And then again. And again. Sometimes, 20 times in a single game. For 16 weeks. Practices. Games. Pre-season. Not mentioning possible playoffs, when stakes are raised even higher. I do think it foolish to believe only football and hockey qualify as injury-producing sports and therefore the only ones worthy of praise; but I also deem it foolish to think that other sports carry the same risk of injury as playing football.

The good thing is, Big Jas' can now go back to eating for 4, and as mentioned previously get back on the grain scale...

Yeah, like perhaps keeping a kicker just for kickoffs, and a QB just for 'wildcat'?

Sitting at my computer...looking for kleenex to wipe away my tears that we won't have the reincarnation of The Fridge, after all...

I'm bummed about Easley not panning out, as I was really hoping that he would be the anti- Hardly. Granted, nothing has happened yet. But last years scare with some sort of heart ailment (these guys are so loaded with anabolic agents maybe he couldn't tolerate them- strange we never got more details) that kept him out for an entire season, I was expecting him to come back firing on all cylinders- because he DID look good before he was not cleared to play last year. Ah, well.

I have to admit to being one in the 'GET R' DONE' camp for Zach Miller. I'm now happy to see that we did not move in that direction. On a separate matter, could you imagine thinking a couple of years ago, the Seahawks having both Miller AND Winslow at TE?!?!? Based on how good these guys should be, you would have been goin' nuts over the potential! Amazing how college hoopla and family lineage don't add up to much if you can't play on Sunday.

Tackle Light retired, and now I hear there starting Guard retired, too. With Pioli at GM, they always had a stable of able-bodied replacements. Not so, anymore. Mario Williams will make Giselle cry.

We can certainly hope. I'm done predicting anything in any sport anymore, as anything can happen. But I will say, that starting with the snide comments coming out of the Jets locker room about Sanchez possibly returning as the starting QB this year, I thought that they were in big trouble. A fight is nothing in the scheme of things, but I'm not sure Ryan has a good handle on these guys anymore. The swag has limits, and I think Ryan may have crossed them with the antics he actively promotes.

Great. Now we're gonna have to wonder, if the reason we get bad calls is because of a certain time of the....wait for it...wait for it....

This from the same coach that a few years ago, while on a long West Coast trip, took the team on a walk around Seattle and had Cheeseburgers together. What a weally, weally, cool guy, that coach!

I loved his mad charges at his teammates after he helped plow open a hole for our RB to run a TD through. Those were cool. Loved that passion.

Dotson looked ok in his limited exposure last year. But after that Nix interview, about rebuilding the team...I gotta billieve that Ferguson is an improvement over Dotson and injuries were not that big of a factor.
