Tony Kornheiser's such a pussy, he had a police escort in Jacksonville. The post had a picture of him done up like Whitney in The Bodyguard.

Hell, he deserved any anger tossed his way. Now he's tried to kiss up to our town.:P

Of course, we're not a violent city anyways, so he was safe.....although there were a decent amount of annoyingly rowdy Pittsburgh fans this weekend. What is it about fans from Pennsylvania?

Is this why he repeated how Jacksonville gets no media attention one billion times during the game? I love Tony on PTI, but man, I think the MNF trio sucks balls.

Yeah he wrote a new article raving about the city now(mainly because he'll be here again later in the season) and is trying to suck up.

I'm pretty sure everyone agrees with that. I know I'm asking for waaaaay too much, but it'd be must-see tv if Wilbon tells that to Tony on PTI and calls for Vermeil/Nessler/Jaws.
 
Is there any place to find out which games CBS & Fox are covering for each area before those gribble nation maps come out before the end of the week? Jags are playing the Colts, Steelers playing the Bengals, and I'll probably be stuck with heated divisional action of Bills vs. Jets. :-\

Oddly enough, tv.yahoo.com usually has it updated the week before.

In my case, it's Jags/Colts early of course, and Giants/Seahawks late.

Damn good day for games...imagine if the Bucs and Panthers had lived up to the hype :(
 
i agree with the anti-tony MNF sentiment. i love PTI, but he just seems out of place in the booth. it's like when you're watching a game with your buddies, and one of your buddies brings a friend who no one knows and he keeps popping in during the game and asking questions. just seems really awkward for him to be in the booth. i'd actually prefer theismann and tirico... actually i'd prefer neither of those guys, get the shitty EA stadium announcer from madden 360 and it'd be an improvement.

That's why I called him a pussy... it's either that or he's such an extreme egomaniac to think that someone would hate him so much as to want to physically harm him. I'm so sick of his act. He makes Theismann enjoyable.

He needs to at least pretend he's excited to be at a live football game.
 
I like when Tony calls out Theismann on some of his insane comments or his random flip-flopping, (like, "I think Big Ben is back." Two plays later, "Ben isn't 100% ready to play yet.") but he doesn't do it nearly enough. And other than that, he doesn't really have anything of football value to add to the game.
 
as of right now i get

early
pitt/cincy - yay
wash/houston - boo

late
nyg - sea - yay

except i have a feeling they'll make me watch Tennessee vs Miami (due to Vince) instead of pitt/cincy. They made me watch the Titans in the first week.

Bleh, I have to watch a Manning?

Don't worry, this is also the first time two quarterbacks who have other quarterback brothers have faced!.....

OK....maybe not, but there's gotta be some first to hype for a Manning game.
 
GREENBELT, Md. (AP) - Advocates for the deaf are suing the Washington Redskins to get them to offer closed-captioning during games at FedEx Field.

The National Association of the Deaf filed the class-action lawsuit Aug. 31 in U.S. District Court in Greenbelt on behalf of three Maryland fans who regularly attend home games.
"Providing captioning is not rocket science; it is simple, and it is the right thing to do," Shane Feldman said in a statement. Feldman was joined in the suit by Paul Singleton and Brian M. Kelly.

They contend the team is violating the Americans With Disabilities Act by failing to provide captioning for the deaf and hearing-impaired. It asks the court to order the Redskins and stadium officials to provide and display captioning on scoreboards and video monitors for all announcements, plays and penalties.

NFL teams are not required by law to do so. Redskins spokesman Karl Swanson said the team considered a proposal to purchase captioning equipment, but the proposal was rejected by Feldman.

Feldman was concerned about a possible 10-minute delay, said Marc Charmatz, senior attorney with the National Association for the Deaf Law and Advocacy Center.

Swanson said the Redskins are considering providing deaf and hearing-impaired fans with 7-inch TVs that would pick up captioning in the stadium. He added that all emergency information is posted on the large screens and on TV monitors throughout the stadium.

Wait, they want play by play captioning? Does anybody do that? I think they are overreaching.

He was doing it so much in the preseason, too. I think ESPN or maybe even Theismann himself told him to knock it off, which is a travesty.

Looks like much of the nation is quarantined for the Bills/Jets game. Woohoo!

I understand why the Houston area would get the Baltimore/Cleveland game (Ravens were the old Houston Oilers), but what's up with that one section in Florida, I wonder
 
Maybe because Mcnair was in Houston all those years. Was trying to think what that map might mean.
 
Ravens were the old Browns, Titans were the old Oilers.

Is Alcorn St. in Central Florida? Maybe that's why it's in Florida.

Basically Tampa TV stations have a feud going over the Jaguars and Orlando coverage. Right now they'll show anything but Jags games. Even going as far as Baltimore/Cleveland, the cheapest one to get.
 
Aight seriously, Tony Dungy needs to get a whoopin' from the league on his injury reports.

The Colts’ injury report reads as follows:

Middle linebacker Gary Brackett (calf, questionable), running back Ran Carthon (finger, questionable), offensive tackle Ryan Diem (hand, questionable), running back DeDe Dorsey (ankle, questionable), Freeney (buttock, questionable), linebacker Gilbert Gardner (hand, questionable), cornerback Nick Harper (ankle, questionable), tight end Ben Hartsock (hamstring, questionable), linebacker Freddie Keiaho (knee, questionable), defensive end Ryan LaCasse (foot, questionable), guard Ryan Lilja (knee, questionable), Reagor (knee, questionable), defensive tackle Darrell Reid (elbow, questionable), safety Bob Sanders (shoulder, questionable), guard Jake Scott (knee, questionable), defensive tackle Corey Simon (knee, questionable), quarterback Jim Sorgi (right shoulder, questionable), Stokley (ankle, questionable), defensive end Josh Thomas (hip, questionable), tight end Ben Utecht (concussion, questionable) and Vinatieri (right groin, questionable).

That's 21 players all Questionable(50% chance of playing)
