Associated Press (9/15/2006, 8:30 AM PST)

OAKLAND , (CA)--Oakland Raiders football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field. Head coach Art Shell immediately suspended practice and called the police and federal investigators. After a complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to Raider players was the GOAL LINE. Practice resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again.

Pahahahah! You could put the Tampa Bay Bucs in here and it would be just as accurate.

You could say this about a lot of teams this year. Defense is dominating this year. Expect the league to go with more rule changes to help the offense.

Tigers A's game time has been moved up due to frosty temps cause by global warming.

It will be a good game this weekend against my Bengals. Cadillac will have a big day. He might as well be on the field driving in a Cadillac--the effect on Cincy's run D will be the same.

Raiders are playing possum football: Play dead at home and get killed on the road.

Maybe Randy Moss forgot something.
