Quick Notes:
  • The plot made public yesterday to detonate dirty bombs at 7 NFL games this weekend was a little redundant, at least from the terrorists' point of view. You see, there was already going to be a stinkbomb detonated at the NetAss Coliseum on Sunday at 1:15. The street name of that bomb is Cardinals vs. Raiders.
  • In what can only be seen as a major oversight on the part of me, The Commissioner, Ryan Lindell has been referred to as the kicker for the Jets when, in fact, he is actually the kicker for Buffalo (at least according to Yahoo). I would profusely apologize if it weren't for two things: 1) The Dragons, who have Lindell on their roster, didn't know this either (and are probably just finding out); and 2) If anyone can differentiate the Jets from the Bills, outside of their QBs, then I might actually care.
  • In today's Sacramento Bee an article ran about Keith Lewis, former Valley High Viking and current special teams standout for the Niners. In it, Mike Nolan stated that Lewis would be given every opportunity to start at safety when the Niners travel to Chicago next week. Nolan went on to state that week 9 would be dedicated to adding a defensive end, week 10 to adding an outside linebacker, and week 11 to adding a cornerback. By that time the Niners defense will be playing with 11 players, just like every other team in the league. When asked about his quirky strategy Nolan commented, "My players have to earn their positions. If we don't have anyone worthy of playing safety, we won't just put someone out there to take up space. The same goes for the other positions that we are playing without on defense right now. I am not going to disgrace the game of football by just sticking someone who isn't remotely qualified out there to play outside linebacker. I won't do that. I would rather play with 7 or 8 guys than have a bunch of stiffs on the field. Not to pat myself on the back, but how many other teams would have held the Chargers under50 while only using 7 guys on defense?"
