Absolutely anyone could make a better announcer than John Gruden. I don't know what it is about him, but even just hearing his voice makes me want to punch a hole through my TV.

I actually like Gruden. My all-time favorite duo has to be Pat Summerall (May he R.I.P) & John Madden.

Don't put it past Bill to go against common logic. Matt Cassel had some lofty passing numbers in NE in 2008. Also one of the most wtf-yet-brilliant pregame statements I have ever heard: "If Thurman Thomas rushes for 100 yards, we will win".

Just a little bit of reading to get you ready for week 1


If you can, read Dave Tuley on espn. He has a lot of insight on picking games against spread. He is an underdog guy though...likes to find good dogs, and thinks if you get a ton of points at home, it's a good time to take that team.

After a very long travel day yesterday: Nebraska to Atlanta to Las Vegas......Vegas back to Atlanta, it's going to be nice just enjoying tonight's game watching with friends.
I hope the season brings many of you a great deal of joy and happiness.

I'm curious to see if Dak Prescott is the real deal or if he was just another preseason wonder. I gambled on him in fantasy so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
