May 11th I believe. I didn't take as much time as I could have finding articles. During the season there will be the previous week's results, stories, injuries, and the next week's schedule, much more work

I don't know if I should even bother watching this year. My Dolphins are... well, they're lucky if they pull out a break-even season.

New coach, yes, I know... maybe I'll watch the opening game.

you never know. Saban should do well. Having their best corner hurt in practice and being out for the season doesn't help matters. At least they got one of the two best running backs in the draft.

I would say one of the two are going to break. Either the team will lose its first few games and rush to do whatever owens wants or he'll see they aren't moving (the more likely scenario) and he'll stop. Either way I bet he gets cut next year.

I believe it's standard for people to not be allowed to do risky stuff, such as motorcycle riding, skydiving, etc.

I think I'm the only hard-core Jets fan who doesn't hate Doug Brien. The guy had one bad game. That's not to say I'm not looking forward to seeing what Mike Nugent can do for us.

I agree, but it would have been stupid for the Jets to bring him back

How so? Their practice field has had fieldturf for quite a while, so they're already used to it.
