Well, of course he did. Bret had just turned heel.

Amazingly, Green Bay is still in the playoff hunt. They'll be a game back of Atlanta and the Giants-Eagles loser.

Cutler to Walker for 54, 7-0 Broncos. Beautiful pass. How did CBS' A-team get assigned this game?

I can't believe I thought Carolina had the best shot to win an NFC wild card two weeks ago. They're getting laughed off their own field by the Steelers, 37-3. The Steelers are STILL not out of playoff contention at this point. The Giants-Eagles winner will have one spot pretty much locked up. As for the other...hell if I know.

THREE defensive TDs for the Titans against Jax today. The Jags are another team that craps the bed whenever they look like they should make a playoff push. Doesn't ANYONE want to make the playoffs?

Why is Kyle Boller at QB for Baltimore? Is McNair hurt?

Yeah, the Saints are sure looking like an NFC favourite. Down 10-0 to the Redskins, although it's still very early.

Yes, you can repick anyone who dies between now and December 31/06.

And Spartacat for Ottawa.

It's very possible we could end up with a 4-way tie at 7-7 in the AFC West after this week.

How many times does this get replayed on ESPN over the next week? I'm thinking upward of 100.

I think Julius Jones might find himself on another team next season.

Duck season.

I think that Vince McMahon was #2 when he won it. Yep. Commissioner HBK made him #2 after Vince made Austin #1 in 1999.

I KNOW what the cover of the magazine says. The story is YouTube/MySpace/etc.

Try again? That's what it is.

It's actually YouTube and MySpace and other user-generated Internet content sites. Saying it's Everyone is stupid. EDIT: Stupid for the media, that is.

Just as I was about to ask why Dallas keeps going with Jones instead of Barber as the main RB, Deion mentions the same thing.

I think the ideal end result from the NFL's perspective is just to give themselves the entire TV contract, and cut the networks out completely. That only works if they can get cable companies to pony up for their network. As of now, that's not happening. That's only because the NFL is pricing themselves out of the market. They'll reach a compromise eventually.

Make it three wins for the Senators over Buffalo this season. Buffalo has as many regulation losses against Ottawa as they do against the rest of the league combined.

And they're called "quarters," not "periods." No, the formal name is period. Well, Gumbel is a formal kind of guy.
