Reasons why your team won't make the playoffs on Fox Sports:

Fox Sports Article

First, it bugs me cause it's by definition an entirely negative article.  Second, the Titans entry is ludicrous:

Tennessee Titans. The Titans' offense depends too much on Vince Young. This will be his third NFL season, and teams are learning how to neutralize him. Once he's out of the equation the Titans will be out of the Playoff picture.

WTF?  Did the author not even bother to research anything at all?  We did make the playoffs last year, and I don't think anyone in their right mind would name the reason as being "Vince Young's remarkable play".  I'm not sure they could've written anything more stupid if they'd tried.  That entry might have made sense if it had been published a year ago.  It would have been wrong, but at least it might have been credible.

I hate sports editorials.  Blogs like this have infinitely better content than commercial sports editorials.  Rant off!

Dunno if some of you have seen this already, but NFL's website has a pretty lengthy article / interview with Alge Crumpler;

That today, after almost zero interviews of Free Agents in the first seven days, the Titans went zonkers announcing upcoming visits?  Three DEs , a CB, a RB, a guard, and a WR.  Seven visits announced in one day.

It appears that Reinfeldt's strategy is to lock away the wallet for the first week of free agency, and then go shopping for what everybody else left on the racks.

Not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but it's pretty interesting either way.

As I watched the pro-bowl today, every family member that wandered into the TV-room part of the house during the game asked me that same question.  Happens every year too.  They're all happy I won't be couch potato-ing any more and then, surprise, pro-bowl freaks 'em out ;-).

Not a great game for any of the Titans from what I could tell, but it's the pro-bowl.  They were there to have fun.  I'm glad Albert had some time to settle things privately with Andre.  Hopefully the pro-bowl experience won't mellow Hulk-Smash-Puny-Human Al too much, though.

The big mean man scares me mommy

Big Al is an epic this year - will it be a comedy or all end up in tears?
