I as of Saturday there will be more posts than ever and throughout the day.
The reason being is that I just got a Blackberry, which this very post is being written on.
I have to admit at first I debated over whether to get it or not due to the crap that Backberry founder Jim Balsille is pulling.
What I realizes that no matter what I do the court will decide tje fate of the Phoenix Coyotes.
So stayed tune folks.
Carolina Panthers @ Atlanta Falcons:
Panthers: Nice bounce back game for quarterback Jake Delhomme. The problem here is the defense specifically the defensive line as they recorded no sacks on the game.
Falcons: As always quarterback Matt Ryan and running back Michael Turner carried the team to victory. Teams will eventually catch on to this.
Detroit Lions @ Minnesota Vikings:
Lions: The Lions need to realize they do not have the defense or the running game to be able to start a rookie. If they do not yank him soon the will ruin quarterback Matt Stafford.
Vikings: Quarterback Brett Farve has not thrown a interception yet as he has changed his game to a more conservative approach. It is working for now, but it will not last long as Farve’s diva attitude will show sooner or later.
Cincinnati Bengals @ Green Bay Packers:
Bengals: It is scary to think that the Bengals offense did not need to rely on quarterback Carson Palmer to get them a win.
Packers: The Packers better find a way to fix their offensive line’s performance or it will be a long season for Packer fans.
Arizona Cardinals @ Jacksonville Jaguars:
Cardinals: Nice bounce back game for Warner, but this is the Jaguars and they are not as good defensively as they once were.
Jaguars: When you have a field goal blocked for a touchdown you are simply just not going to win that game.
Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs:
Raiders: It is not a good sign when your quarterback in year three of his career throws 7-24 in a game. They are very lucky to come out a win.
Chiefs: To throw a check down is one of the dumbest decisions that a quarterback can make with no time outs and less than :14 on the clock. Cassel will be right fully crucified for that this week.
New England Patriots @ New York Jets:
Patriots: Without wide receiver Wes Welker and no running game the Patriots are just simply not that good.
Jets: Jet fans have a lot to be hopeful as for the first time in a long time a rookie quarterback finished a game against Patriots head coach Bill Belichick smelling like roses. Usually Belichick eats rookies alive for breakfast.
New Orleans Saints @ Philadelphia Eagles:
Saints: The loss of running back Mike Bell will be huge for the Saints as teams will now start blitzing a lot to stop the passing attack. It looks like it will take a while for the defense to start looking like a Greg Williams defense.
Eagles: Your not going to win many football games when your quarterback throws three interception with one going for a touchdown and the other at your own 22 yard line.
Houston Texans @ Tennessee Titans:
Texans: Looks like last weeks performance by quarterback Matt Schaub was due to his injury and a Jets defense that looks really good. Run defense needs to play way better.
Titans: Simply you just cannot sit back and let a quarterback just stand in the pocket without any pressure as any decent quarterback will pick your defense apart.
Saint Louis Rams @ Washington Redskins:
Rams: You cannot blame Avery for the loss as he was trying to get a first down on third and four. The true character of this team will show next week as champions bounce back and win their next game after a heart breaking loss.
Redskins: Going for it on fourth and one from the Rams two yard line in the fourth quarter with being up only two point is the most stupidest thing to do. Take the field goal and make them score a touchdown.
Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers:
Seahawks: Time for the Seahawks to move on from quarterback Matt Hasselbeck as he simply cannot hold up to the rigors of the National Football League.
49ers: The 49ers will go as far as running back Frank Gore holds up.
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Chicago Bears:
Steelers: If the offensive line doesn’t find a way to play better it will be a long season for the Stelers.
Bears: Quarterback Jay Cutler looks like he is finally settling down in Chicago.
Cleveland Browns @ Denver Broncos:
Browns: The Browns have problems at offensive tackle allowing outside Broncos outside linebacker Elvis Dumervil four sacks on the day. It looks like Browns fans may be yearning for the days of Browns ownership under Art Model.
Broncos: The move to s 3-4 defense was the smart move as it took advantage of their skill at linebacker.
Baltimore Ravens @ San Diego Chargers:
Ravens: Got to improve the pass defense if they are going to get to the playoffs.
Chargers: Your not going to win games running the football like that.
A clip of Michael Vick’s interview on 6o Minutes has been released by CBS.
After reviewing the clip Vick is genuinely remorseful.
As the saying goes a person’s eyes is the window to his soul and in Vicks you see remorse.
Vick went on to state that after he started the dog fighting ring he realized what he was doing was wrong, but due to anxiety and fear he couldn’t muster up the courage to stop it.
Vick has a legitament case there when it comes to fear as his partners being criminals could have turned on Vick and killed him.
Simply, Vick got sucked in by old friends and when he realized what he was doing it was too late
Vick did get lucky as the Surry County district attorney Gerald L. Poindexter could have levied more charges on him.
Still Vick has a long way to climb to get back to his status as one of the most hyped quarterbacks in the National Football League.
No matter how you look at it the courts had their final say and Vick has done what he has been asked of.
He now has a second chance that he can use to reshape his legacy.
In the end unlike other players that have had more chances Vick will not get a third as what he did is one of the worst things that any past or present NFL player has ever done.
The San Francisco 49ers are in the midst of putting a plan together for a new stadium. The 49ers would be foolish to build the stadium outside of the city.
Right now the leading site for the new 49ers stadium is the city of Santa Clara, CA, which is 20 miles outside of the city.
The Buffalo Bills is the only other team that I know off hand that is outside of the city that it is named after as their stadium is 10 miles from the middle of downtown Buffalo in Orchard Park, NY.
Now, the city of Buffalo, along with every Western New Yorker, wants the Bills in downtown Buffalo, because several reasons.
Buffalo does have the Buffalo Bisons, Buffalo Sabres, which hosts a lot of concerts, theaters, and symphonies.
However, there is no greater impact than having a football team in the heart of your city.
The amount of revenue that flows into a city is grearter than all those combined, because those games increase the demand for local restaurants, parking, and other stores that fans going to the game needs.
With more businesses doing business that means more property taxes for the city.
If the 49ers were to move then there are going to be some businesses that will close, which means lost revenue.
That translates into a budget deficate for the city, which lawmakers will compensate for by cutting teachers, emergency responders, or other government officials.
In the end the city of San Francisco needs to get its act together or they will feel the loss for decades to come.

The release of the National Football League schedule has become a prime event that many media outlets had shows about it. However, fans need to remember some important aspects about it.
The National Football League has become an even playing field, which means that teams can turn around overnite.
So, that means right now the schedule for a team could look easy.
However, when the season begins things begin to change for several reasons.
First, the game itself is brutal, and even when the preseason begin injuries pile up and a team that looks good all of a sudden becomes a mere shadow of itself like the Jacksonville Jaguars last year.
Secondly, some teams additions do not always workout. There are some teams that go crazy in free agency, the Washington Redskins being the biggest culprit of this, and the moves that they make do not work out. The reasons being the player does not fit the system or scouts did poor work on the player.
The last reason is that some teams just hit dead on free agent signing and draft picks, which propels them to instant success like the Atlanta Flacons last year.
So, remember people just becuase your teams schedule looks good now means it will look the same come the start of the regular season.

NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith has been on the job only a short time. However, that has not stopped him from talking trash.
According to the New York Daily News, Smith is a partner in the powerful Washington lawfirm Patton Boggs, which has ties to President’s Obama Administration.
Smith has threatend that if National Football League owners do not negotiate the next Collective Bargaining Agreement in good faith he will take action. Meaning, Smith will ask congress to take away the league’s tax-exempt status and it limited antitrust status.
That is probably the most stupidest thing I have ever heard of. How the hell did this guy even get elected.
Taking away the owners tax-exempt status would be the worst thing to do in this economy, because owners will pass down the losses to the fans by increasing the price of luxury suites and tickets.
With the increases in prices, in a recession, would most likely drive fans and businesses away, because the prices would be to costly for them. Ultimately, that would have a direct effect on the players themselves.
The salary cap is determined by all the money that owners take in. If businesses and fans stop buying tickets and luxury suites, then the salary cap will go down. That means money will be going out of players pockets.
The old way that the salary cap was figured was largely based on television revenue. Even in a recession with that math formula the salary cap will most likely never go down.
The effect in luxury suites would not be as quick, because most businesses are tied to the suite with a contract for a determined number of years.
Also, Smith needs to take care of his own house. Many retired players are struggling to make ends meet, because of the measely amount of pensions they get, along with no health care coverage.
Until Smith shows that he has the best interests of active and retired players at heart he needs to shut the heck up!
